Helena was beginning to get depressed.  She'd tried--several times--to get home, all without success.  She was already missing her teammates--not to mention hoping to God that they weren't going out of their mind with worry about her.  And frankly, this Gotham was too different, too strange, too far ahead of her own for her to ever be comfortable here.

"I just want to go home," she muttered.  "Or to do something useful... Why the heck am I even here?"

"Nobody told you the civilian identity of the working leader of the JLA," said Conner slowly, shaking his head.

Helena frowned. "You're not talking about Brenda, are you?"

Narmo snorted, then pointed as Prudence walked past the window with a watering pot in her hand and a funny straw hat on her head.

Comprehension worked its way across Helena's face and transformed itself into shock.

"...No one tells me anything."
