Be-fowled by a couple of fledgelings!
S1 E13I've Got Batman In My Basement
GMrs. Grant
Sherman, what are you doing down there?
SSherman
Nothing, Mom.
GMrs. Grant
You're not trying to make gunpowder again, are you?
SSherman
No, Mom, Honest.
RRoberta
We just saved Batman's life, Mrs. Grant, and now we're hiding him from some bad criminals.
GMrs. Grant
That's good, just don't make a mess. [leaves]
SSherman
Nice going, Miss Big Mouth.
RRoberta
Sorry, Sherman, I guess I panicked.
Gentlemen - and I use the term loosely - after you.
Eurgh, how bourgeois. Tearing this place apart could only improve it. Let the egg hunt begin.
GMrs. Grant
Young man, you've got some serious explaining to do. [sees Batman and the defeated Penguin and gasps]
SSherman
Err, Mom, I'd like you to meet Batman. Batman, this is my mom.
Ma'am.
GMrs. Grant
Oh, hello.
SSherman
Say, Batman, you wouldn't be single, would you?
S1 E14Heart of Ice
This is how I'll always remember you. Surrounded by winter forever young, forever beautiful. Rest well, my love. The monster who took you from me will soon learn that revenge is a dish... best served cold.
Think of it, Batman. To never again walk on a summer's day with a hot wind in your face and a warm hand to hold. Oh, yes... I'd kill for that.
[Batman infiltrates an office in GothCorp headquarters and sees a classified file with a videotape and medical records of a woman named Nora Fries. He plays the tape on a nearby VCR]
VFVictor Fries
[on the tape] My name is Doctor Victor Fries. I am recording what I pray would be mankind's first step toward immortality. [camera pans to a large machine with a glass capsule and a woman inside it] Behind me, you see the CC-100, a cryogenic freezing chamber of my own design. I created it for the express purpose of freezing subjects stricken with inoperable ailments. Subjects like... my own beloved wife, Nora. Once a remedy has been found-- [reacts to a loud banging on the door]
FBFerris Boyle
[Behind the door] Open this door! Open it now! [A security guard kicks the door down, Ferris and another guard step into the room. Boyle confronts Fries angrily.] Get away from that equipment! [Orders his guards] Shut this stuff down.
FFries
Stop! This is my experiment!
BBoyle
Your unauthorized experiment. I ordered funding suspended weeks ago! I'm already three million in debt thanks to you!
FFries
You can't stop it now! My wife is in there!
BBoyle
So bring her out!
FFries
You can't interrupt the process now!
BBoyle
[to guard] Open it.
FFries
It's her only chance!
BBoyle
This is MY equipment! MINE! I have every legal right to use it or not use it as I see fit. I say this project ends now!
FFries
[grabs pistol from security guard and aims it at Ferris] NO! Stay away from her, murderer!
BBoyle
Victor... I'm sorry... I lost my temper. It doesn't have to come to this. We can talk! [Fries calms down and Boyle kicks him into a table of cryonic chemicals. Victor screams in pain as the cloud of volatile chemicals engulf him. Boyle runs out of the room with his guards] Get out! Get out!
FFries
[Clinging to his freezing chamber, screaming through the glass] Nora! NORA...! [passes out. The tape ends]
My God.
[A voice rings out--it's Mr. Freeze, who just snuck in the room]
Yes. It would move me to tears, if I still had tears to shed. [freezes Batman with his cryo-gun]
[Mr. Freeze raids the award ceremony and confronts Ferris Boyle, who is receiving a humanitarian award]
The cold eyes of vengeance are upon you, Boyle.
FBFerris Boyle
Who...who are you?!
Come, now. Surely you remember your old colleague... Victor Fries?
[Mr. Freeze aims and fires his freezing gun at Boyle's feet, ice slowly covering up his legs to his waist]
BBoyle
NO! No...! Stop... please... I... b-beg you! [Mr. Freeze stops his freezing gun]
You... beg? In my nightmares I see my Nora behind the glass, begging to me with frozen eyes. How I've longed to see that look frozen on you.
[Batman batarangs Mr Freeze's cryo-gun and attacks him. Mr Freeze overpowers Batman and throws him off]
The advanced circuitry that powers my suit also triples my strength. [engages Batman, and lifts him off the ground] Sooner or later, all who stand in my way must feel the icy touch of death!
[Mr. Freeze is about to kill Batman, but collapses when Batman smashes his glass helmet with a thermos full of chicken soup given to him by Alfred earlier]
[walks next to Batman] Ooh...! What was that stuff?
The only way to fight a cold.
[as his suit falters] It can't end this way... vengeance...!
No, justice. A year ago, Ferris Boyle interrupted an experiment, and in the process destroyed two lives. [gives Summer Gleeson the tape he found] Here's the evidence. [to Boyle] Good night, humanitarian. [walks off]
[Mr. Freeze is in his subzero cell in Arkham Asylum, tearfully gazing at a ballerina in a snow globe resembling Nora]
I failed you. I wish there were another way for me to say it... but I cannot. I can only beg your forgiveness and pray you hear me somehow, someplace. Someplace... where a warm hand waits for mine.
S1 E15The Cat And The Claw Part 1
SStern
Now if you'll excuse me, I've given you all the time I can spare.
You'll find more time for me, Mr. Stern. Before I'm through, I'll have every environmental group and animal rights activist breathing down your neck. They'll be looking at you and your project so closely, you'll feel like a bug in a bell-jar.
You're late.
MBMob Boss
Can't you walk up to someone normal-like?
I hear you have some information.
MBMob Boss
Under one condition: Lay off the South Side.
Keep this up, and I'll be on you from all sides. North, south, east, and west.
S1 E16The Cat And The Claw Part 2
Red Claw? A woman?
RCRed Claw
Do you have a problem with that, Batman?
Not at all. I'm an equal opportunity crime fighter.
I didn't want you taken away like a common criminal.
So you do care.
[handcuffing her] More than you'll ever know.
S1 E17See No Evil
LVLloyd Ventrix
See you 'round, Batman! Too bad you can't say the same!
