[dissolving] After all I gave you... how could you have turned out like this?
DCDeanna Clay
You never gave me anything except money, mother. How did you expect me to turn out?

S1 E15Unfinished Business
Guys, this is Charlie "Big Time" Bigelow. Charlie was always scheming about how he was going to make it big and the name stuck.
And T.T. is Tiny Terry, 'cause he was always thinking small.
Dana, you remember Charlie?
I remember who he is. Do you?
A job, Charlie? I have a life now. School, a real job. And you just got out of jail. You know how long they'll throw you back for number two? Don't you wanna do anything with your life?
Hey, ease up, Tiny. You only have that nice life because of me. You owe me for playing your part down.
No. I can't risk it.
'Cause he's an ex-con? You know about my record. You trust me with all this.
You didn't spend three years in prison.
That's right. He did and I didn't. All because I happened to be underage. He and I were the same, Bruce, only I caught a break. I just want to give him one too.
KKarros
You sure you're ready for the big time, kid?
Are you kidding? Big Time's my middle name.
Charlie was 18 and I was 14. My folks were breaking up and he and I were being angry kids, busting windows, shoplifting. Then Charlie decided to prove himself to this big gang and he dragged me along on a heist. I didn't even know what we were doing till he was climbin' in the window.
But you went in, too?
Never said I was bright. Next thing I knew, the cops were shouting "Freeze", and I was doing 90 days in juvie. That was a slap on the wrist next to Charlie. He was in prison for three years.
And that's why you've been running around with guilt ever since he rolled into town. You don't owe him anything.
He's my friend, Max. And he's gonna die if I don't do something.
You're not going to bring him to his senses. He needs to do that himself.
Maybe I can at least keep him alive until he does.
I am vengeance...I am the night...I am...Batman!

[wild applause]
[to Terry] You hate me, don't you?
Lighten up. It's your birthday.
Don't remind me.
JGJames Gordon
Good work, Caped Crusader! Once again, you've saved our fair city from those vile miscreants!
They were no problem, Commissioner! For as we all know, criminals are...[singing] A superstitious cowardly lot! They plan and plot but they always get caught!
GBGordon/Batman
Their evil plans all come to naught! (with Terry McGinnis singing) A superstitious cowardly lot!
C'mon, took me weeks to get tickets for this show. It's schway.
It's schw-arbage. [gets up and leaves]
I've read a lot about you too. You're the daughter of Ra's al Ghul, one of the old man's worst enemies from way back. You helped Batman fight Ra's one last time in the Near-Apocalypse of '09. For the last couple of decades you been putting your father's money to work cleaning up the mess he made. Current residence is a two hundred acre estate on New Cuba.
[Bruce gives Terry a surprised look]
What? Did you think I was down here playing vid-games?
ETERNAL YOU-?
[She stops, remembering they're in a library as Terry pulls her aside]
[whispering] Eternal youth?
I'll tell you right now: there's no way I'm wearing the Robin suit.
TATalia al Ghul
Ra's al Ghul was a man of many contrasts. Leader, environmentalist-
Sociopath.
[Talia brings up her ear, indicating she heard that]
Sorry.
RSRa's al Ghul
You always were the perfect specimen, Detective. Even old age has not softened you as much as I had feared.
I should have known you'd cheat death again, Ra's.
RSRa's al Ghul
I don't cheat death, I master it. Though I assure you, this time my longevity comes at a price most dear.
Talia...
RSRa's al Ghul
I did indeed survive our last battle, but my body was broken far beyond the pit's powers to heal. In order to save my life, I called upon Talia to undertake the ultimate act of loyalty.
[outraged] You sacrificed her! Your own daughter!
RSRa's al Ghul
I did what I had to do. At the time, this computer could only imprint my thoughts and memories on a close genetic match. But now this youthful form has served its purpose. I must move on to a new host body: yours!
[sarcastically] Sure, Ra's, why not? Anything to hold off the Grim Reaper another few seconds. [contemptuous] I take it back. You don't cheat death - you whimper in fear of it.
RSRa's al Ghul
SILENCE! [slaps Bruce]
And you hit like a girl.
RSRa's al Ghul
Don't waste your contempt on me, Detective. When Talia offered you youth again, you fairly drooled to take it. A simple blow to your ego. That staged incident with the flat tire was all I needed to ensnare you.
I guess for a moment I was as weak as you, Ra's!
RSRa's al Ghul
This computer will finally still that insolent tongue. I've refined it so I no longer need a genetic match. Your brainwaves will be purged as mine are implanted in their place. I shall return to Gotham in your stead, bringing with me proof, both written and genetic, that I am the long forgotten son of Bruce Wayne and Talia. How ironic that your company and holdings will fund my new empire.
[Batman slices through the machine with Batarangs, stopping the process]
RSRa's al Ghul
No!
Lady, that is the sickest thing I've ever seen. You're creeping me out!
You?! She kissed me!
