Lines by The Penguin 2

Penguin

[to his election crew] Plenty of girls and bands and slogans and lots of hoopla, but remember, no politics. Issues confuse people!

Scenes with The Penguin 7

[Batman and Robin jump into the Penguin Protection Agency, Batman growling]

Penguin

Well, the costumed crooks! The dressed-up desperadoes!

Your super-brain power has driven us MAD, Penguin!

Something SNAPPED!

We don't care if we go up the river for a hundred years, we're getting you first!!

Penguin

Quick, my finks! Self-defense! The dynamic duo has flipped their wings!

Oh, The caped crusaders don't know what's in store for them. At long last, I'll have them out of my way permanently.

MMercury

That's a long time, Joker.

The proceeds from my zodiac crimes will give me what I've always wanted. Complete control of Gotham City. Oh, yes. The caped crusaders are now solidly star-crossed. Venus. Venus, will you stop bouncing?

VVenus

Your orders, Joker. A larcenous mind in a limber body. we must stay trim.

No.

VVenus

Batman's no fool.

He's no match for me with the stars as my guide. Oh, get the door, Mercury.

TDTruck Driver

Freight shipment. Collect. Two thousand four hundred fifty dollars.

MMercury

What?

Just pay him, Mercury. Quick, give me a hand with this. Ha-ha-ha! Careful now. Careful.

VVenus

What's inside, Joker? $2000 is a lot of money!

Ah, this merchandise is WORTH $2000!

[Penguin pops out of the box.]

Penguin

It's worth $200,000, you cheapskate! At least you could have sent me a plane ticket!

We had to get you into Gotham City without anyone knowing about it, Pengy. Especially Batman.

Penguin

You better have something good cooked up for that caped creep.

Oh, don't you worry, Pengy. The pot's being put on the fire right now, and Batman's in it.

Penguin

Oh, you are a man after my own heart, Joker.

Black, eh?

Penguin

Black as pitch.

Where are Uranus and Mars? They should have completed Operation Laundry Bag by now.

MMercury

Maybe they ran into some trouble with the prison guards.

They better not. Operation Laundry Bag must be successful... in order for me to complete Aquarius and Capricorn. The final two crimes of my zodiac. Ha, ha. They're here. Yeah. Well, where is he?

MMars

In the bag.

Stupid. Why didn't you let him out?

MMars

We didn't have a chance. Warden Crichton's boys chased us all the way from the prison.

Well, quick, help me get him out.

Penguin

Waugh, waugh, waugh. You dolts. You buffoons. I might have suffocated.

MMars

I'm sorry, Pengy. I didn't mean to...

Penguin

"Pengy"? Mr. Penguin to you, sir.

Numskull, get Penguin's clothes for him! Hurry!

Penguin

Get my clothes for me? I've got them on!

Oh, so you do! For a minute, I thought those were prison issue!

Penguin

Prison issue?! This sartorial triumph, a prison issue?!

Well, sometime I'll give you the name of my tailor!

Penguin

Sometime I'll give you a piece of my mind! Like right now!!

MMars

I don't have any other clothes for him, Joker. But... But I got news for you. Saturn called from the other hideout. Venus and the Caped Crusaders are gone.

Well, of course they're gone. The clam made a good meal out of them. Ha-ha-ha!

MMercury

The Batmobile's gone too, from outside. The clam could haven't eaten that.

Are you trying to tell me Batman, Robin and Venus could all have escaped my clam trap?

MMars

Yeah, that's the way it looks from here, Joker.

Oh, Pengy. Then I really need your help.

Penguin

To do what?

To terminate Batman once and for all. While I conclude my Zodiac Crimes.

Penguin

Now you're talking. Together to the end, Jokey. Batman's end.

Penguin

I don't know whether to call him "daddy" or just Commissioner.

[Batman and Robin arrive]

If I were you, Penguin, I'd call help right now!

When we get through with you, Penguin, you'll be hollering "uncle" instead of "daddy"!

[Penguin snatches Chief O'Hara's pocket watch, but then O'Hara and everyone else gets up after pretending to be asleep]

You won't be needin' a watch where you're going!

Penguin

Wha???

You'll need a calendar - a 20-year calendar!

Penguin

This is impossible! You're all infected with Lygerian Sleeping Sickness!

CMiss Clean

Oh, you see that's what happens, Pengy-poo, when you're sending off *flies* to do a *man's* job!

That's right, Pengy-poo! We're just sleepwalking!

What do you say to a little sleep-fighting, Robin?

Huh! Good idea, Batgirl!
