Lesson number one is: NOOOOO TAAAALKING! Children are to be seen and not heard. We are the Underdwellers. We are the silent ones. We follow the invisible creed.

Frog! The rolls, if you please. You're not Frog! Where is he?! He's not here! NOT HERE! And after all I've done for you ungrateful little monsters! I took you in when nobody else would have you! It is I who care for you! I who provide for you! And only I WHO KNOWS WHAT'S GOOD FOR YOU! Would you rather I sent you back into the light? Back to those who hurt you, and sent you away? THERE WILL BE NOTHING TO EAT UNTIL FROG IS FOUND! NOW OUT WITH YOU! OUT WITH YOU!
I don't know what kind of barbarian did this to you, but it's over. And from now on, you'll be treated like human beings.
[clapping] Bravo. Bravo. You've caused me great distress, you evil bat, yes, yes, yes, you have. You've hurt my pretty pets, and you've frightened my beloved children.
"Beloved children"?!
Yes. I feed them, I clothe them, I discipline them, and I teach them a trade. And now, I will teach you something!
[He stamps on Batman's hands, but Batman swings under the pipe and kicks him from behind, causing him to fall off]
Grab my hand!

A gruesome fate for a gruesome man.
[He hears the Sewer King laughing, and sees him with the alligators, unharmed]
I rather enjoyed it! I told you, they're my pretties! [pets one, laughing] Have a nice swim!
[Batman swings over to chase him, narrowly missing the alligators' jaws]
Later.
[Batman pulls the Sewer King out of the way of an oncoming train]
Why? Why?! Why?!
I don't pass sentence. That's for the courts. But this time - this time - I am sorely tempted to do the job myself!
