HarleyI'm having a BAD DAY! I'm sick of people trying to shoot me, run me over and blow me up! I didn't even get to keep my new dress - I ACTUALLY PAID FOR IT!
Harley QuinnAh-ah-ah-ahem. Look alive, wage slaves. Presenting that caliph of clowns, that mogul of mountebanks, the one and only Joker.
[The Joker enters, laughing ]
Great Scott!
Actually, I'm Irish. Good morning, Mister, err, [looks at his desk's name plate] Francis. Please allow me to introduce my associates. Miss Quinn.
Harley QuinnEnchante.
And Messrs, uh... oh, their names escape me for the moment. No matter! We gentlemen of business have arrangements to discuss.
A... Arrangements?
[drops a Joker Fish onto his desk] For my fish, of course. This has all been worked out far in advance, Francis. You are merely the last tiny cog in my grand design. So don't speak to me again, 'kay? Now, what is everyone in town talking about?
Err... your fish?
[smacks him with the fish] I TOLD YOU NOT TO SPEAK!
Harley[sniffs Francis] Ooh, fish stink-a-roony. [sprays him with a substance from a perfume bottle, making him cough] All better.
As I was saying, since every fish in Gotham now bares my famous and frankly fabulous face, I should be getting a profit from every fish product sold. [one of his thugs pours out a pile of products] Let's say a nickel per fish sandwich, fifty cents for sardines - millions of dollars a day to finance my happily hedonistic lifestyle. So which of your tedious copyright forms do I fill out first? You may speak now.
No one can copyright fish. They're a natural resource.
But they share my unique face. Colonel What's-His-Name has chickens, and they don't even have moustaches.
I can't help it, it's the law.
Oh! Trying to cheat the Joker, are ya? Well, we'll see who has the last laugh. You have until midnight to change your mind, Francis, or you'll be the poorest fish of all! [leaves laughing, with his thugs following]
Harley[blows Francis a kiss as she follows] Buh-bye.
He's crazy.
[After the Joker is seemingly eaten by the shark]
Harley[sniffs] Oh, my poor, poor puddin'.
Come on, he was a demented, abusive, psychotic maniac.
HarleyYeah... I'm really gonna miss him.
Do you think he's gone for good?
Believe me, Jim, I wish it were true. But deep inside, I doubt it.
You know, there's just one thing bothering me about your story, Sid. No body. No BATUS DELECTI so to speak. We need to pull a job tonight just to make sure.
Make sure what, boss?
Why that old Batsy's bought the cave of course, and one more thing Murphy...don't ask stupid questions. [pushes Murphy to the hyenas who scratch and lick him]
Harley QuinnI'll get the mop.
NO, we didn't get the diamond! The Dork Knight showed up before we even got to the museum! I had a great shot at him, too. Except... my dear little Harley Quinn handed me the wrong gun!
Harley QuinnBut puddin', it was kinda funny watching you shoot at him with the bang flag! [Rocco and Henshaw can't help laughing then stifle it as the Joker glares at them]
[turning back to Harley] Funny? You presume to tell me what I should think is funny?
Harley Quinn[Poison Ivy trips the alarm, spoiling and hers and Harley Quinn's separate robberies] Nice going, butterfingers. Why not turn on the Bat-Signal while you're at it?
I wasn't TRYING to get caught!
Harley QuinnCould've fooled me. Hey, aren't you that plant lady Poison Oakie?
Ivy! Poison IVY, not Oakie!
Harley QuinnSorry! Harley Quinn, please to meet ya!
[Poison Ivy is about to give an injection to Harley Quinn]
Harley QuinnI hate shots! I hate shots!
Now, now. You're not immune to poison like I am, and you won't last ten minutes here in Toxic Acres without my antidote. [gives the injection]
Harley QuinnOooh! Whew, you'd think after livin' with Mr. J, I'd be used to a little pain.
Why do you put up with that clown?
Harley QuinnDon't get me wrong. My puddin's a little rough sometimes, but he loves me, really.
[sarcastically] Sure he does. You're just one big, forgiving doormat, aren't you?
Harley QuinnI am NOT a doormat! ...Am I?
If you had a middle name, it would be Welcome. But cheer up, kid. You just need some lessons in good old female self-esteem. In other words, let's play with the boys on our terms.
That should keep you big strong men busy while we weak little girls loot your trophy room.
Harley QuinnGee, Ives, you got style.
Harley Quinn[sighs] No offense, Ives, but I'm not very hungry. Somehow I don't feel like my old perky self. Something's missing.
[slams her form on Harley's plate] Will you stop?! I can't believe you're still mooning over that psychotic creep!
Harley QuinnWell, maybe I'd feel better if I knew he missed me, too.
Harley Quinn[to Poison Ivy] I remember when I would go driving like this with Mr. J.
[imitating Harley Quinn] "Mr. J, Mr. J." Oh, change the record, Harl. You wanna be some wacko's victim the rest of your life?
Court is now in session! The Good People of Arkham Asylum vs. the Self-Righteous Vigilante Called Batman! Our prosecutor is ready, likewise our fair and impartial jury.
Hang him!
HarleyShoot him!
Hit him with a rock!
And now, all rise for the most honorable, most benevolent, most merciful Judge Joker!
GUILTY!
I was promised a chance to defend my client!
Oh, very well. Like it'll make a difference.
Harley[in handcuffs] I sense a lack of trust.
Are you sure you don't need help keeping Zippy under control?
[Harley picks the lock on her cuffs while Batman speaks]
I'm fine. Besides, I need you to be ready if Gordon's men get any leads. I'll signal if there's trouble.
You got it.
HarleyI wanna listen to the radio. [reaches for the controls]
DON'T--!
[Harley Quinn deploys a parachute, causing the Batmobile to swerve wildly and Batman stops it]
HarleyOops.
Listen, and listen good. You don't touch anything, say anything, or DO ANYTHING UNLESS I TELL YOU! GOT IT?!
HarleyYes, sir.
So far, Joker hasn't been seen in any of his old hideouts. I want you to show me the last place he used when he escaped.
HarleyOkay.
It's lucky you were here, Quinn. The countdown sequence didn't leave Joker enough time to swing by Arkham and pick you up.
Quiet, brat.
HarleyYou were gonna come for me, weren't you, Puddin'?
Of course, pumpkin-pie. It's just that... well, here you are, so I can, err, save myself the trip.
HarleyBut what about all our friends, Ivy and Two-Face and... Hat-Guy and Lizard-Man and Puppet-Head and-
What about them?
Don't forget your little pets.
Harley[gasps] The babies! We can't leave the babies!
I'll buy you a goldfish. Let's go.
HarleyNo!
Why, you little-
Harley[points the gun against Joker] Freeze, clown!
Quinn, stop!
HarleyHe's mine, Bats!
You wouldn't dare. You don't have the guts. Not in a million years would you--
[Harley pulls the trigger and a flag that reads "Rat-Tat-Tat" comes out of the barrel]
Baby, you're the greatest.
You've made wonderful progress, Harley. You've passed your competency hearing, and tomorrow, you will be released, mentally sane and sound.
HarleyWheee! Wahoo! Whoopee! Yay! Yay! Yay! Uh... I mean thank you, Dr. Leland.
That's ok. You have every reason to be proud of yourself.
[offscreen] Unhand me!
I just wish the other inmates could make your sort of progress.
I am the Master of Fear! The Lord of Despair! Cower before me in witless terror!
HarleyHi, Professor Crane!
Good evening, child. [To Batman and Robin] Worship me, you fools! Worship me! Scream hosannas of anguish to Scarecrow, the all-terrible God of Fear!
I think he's getting better.
