Terry McGinnis quotes from Batman Beyond

How do you do it?

Terry McGinnis

Do what?

This hero thing?

Terry McGinnis

It's easier for me. I've got the suit.

No. How do you save the world... [excitedly] and not tell anybody?!

Terry McGinnis

I can tell you. You can tell me. That's why I'm glad you found out...partner.

Let me see if I got all this: Jurgen is breaking up with Blades so he can see Chris, but Chris is interested in Eric, who doesn't want to date anybody. Now wait a minute, that doesn't sound like Eric to me.

It's not. You're thinking of the other Eric.

Terry McGinnis

Aw, man, there's two of them now?

See how important these little updates are? Without them, people would start wondering why you don't know what's going on at school anymore.

Terry McGinnis

I should just tell them I'm busy chasing renegade synthoids and living heads.

Max Gibson They wouldn't believe it.

Terry McGinnis

Neither do I.

Terry McGinnis

What do we need more evidence for? You taped the feed from my fingertip mikes, didn't you? All you gotta do is take it to the authorities.

And what do I say when they ask me where I got it? A little bat left it on my front porch?

Terry McGinnis

[realizes] Oh. You still got that plastic mini vid-cam? The one you can take through a metal detector?

I've got it, but you're not thinking of...

Terry McGinnis

Some jobs are just too tough for Batman. That's when Terry McGinnis swings into action!

Listen, there's a lot of weird stuff going on here.

Terry McGinnis

I know. Hold on a second.

[takes out his mini-camera and switches it on]

Terry McGinnis

Okay, go.

The sleep thing's just the beginning, Terry. He's trying to break our will, turn us all into little robots. Wheeler's got this thing they call "ISO". Short for "isolation". It's total sense deprivation - no light, no sound. He uses it on the kids who don't get with the program. It...It... [starts breaking down] Terry, you've got to get me out of here!

Terry McGinnis

That's gonna happen, Chels. Just as soon as someone I know sees this vid. In the meantime, just try to stay schway for another day or two, okay?

CCChelsea Cunningham

I'll try.

I got worried when you didn't come back.

Terry McGinnis

Bet you brought one of your old Batsuits with you.

You'll never know.

I hope you don't think this place was typical.

Terry McGinnis

Terry McGinnis

So the judge was lenient, I'm glad.

JTJared Tate

My dad cooperated in every way. Of course, he won't be home for a while, and there's that fine...

Terry McGinnis

Yeah, I heard you lost the car.

JTJared Tate

You meet more interesting people on public transportation.

MGMaxine Gibson

You know, I've got my sister's car while she's out of town. You ever need a ride, I'm there.

Terry McGinnis

You never made that offer to me.

Maybe 'cause you're spoiled.

Yes, but you've never had to face politicians before.

Come on, it's just entertainment.

You wouldn't find it so entertaining if you were on the receiving end.

Terry McGinnis

Aren't you the one who didn't want us watching this? You said I wouldn't find it so entertaining if I was on the receiving end.

Yeah, well, what do I know?

Terry McGinnis

Mom, Matt, there's something I need to tell you.

After the show, dear.

Terry McGinnis

No! It can't wait! I-I'm... Batman.

[Matt and Mary laugh]

Terry McGinnis

Seriously, I am!

Terry, please!

Terry McGinnis

Slippers, from rubies?!

Before your time.

[School bell rings]

Terry McGinnis

It'll have to wait till tonight. I got to get to class. It's family studies, and I'm failing.

[Comlink goes offline, Bruce faces his dog, Ace]

How does someone fail family studies?

Terry McGinnis

Um.

You brought a baby with you?

Terry McGinnis

It's not what you think, really.

Terry, is there something you need to tell me?

Something's wrong. He's not eating! Why isn't he eating?

Terry McGinnis

Maybe because you're trying to feed him through his nose.
