Batman quotes from Beware the Batman

Someone is sending Gotham a message, Lieutenant.

How did you get in here? Why do I even ask?

Computer: last known address of Humpty Dumpty.

A wall.

I'll rephrase.

I never wanted this, I never wanted to hurt anyone. But they dragged me into the middle of their war. Lieutenant Gordon, Tobias Whale, THEIR war. I just wanna go back to play with my numbers and my toys, but I can't. I can't go back.

Humpty... Humpfrey, we can sort this out. (Humpty Dumpty has disappeared, and climbed to the tower) You're right, they dragged you into their war, but that's still not justification for what you've done.

You're a lot of fun. You're the best fun I've had in years. (Laughs) All the kings horses, and all the king's men can't put Humpfrey Dumpler back together again. (Humpty falls off the tower, and Batman fails to grab him. He falls to the ground, and breaks into a thousand pieces, being a decoy of plaster. Batman is shown holding a disconnected arm.)

Lieutenant Gordon, come in.

Go ahead.

All the bomb statue-suits down here suddenly deactivated. We can cut them out safely now.

Why would Humpty Dumpty do that? Just let them all go like that?

Humpty's broken, but that doesn't make him pure evil.

Lovely. Did you get that from your costumed vigilante book of proverbs?

He lost the battle, and he's walking away honorably. But something tells me, the war is far from over.

You're trespassing!

And you're going to jail Stagg. You didn't like your precious pampered daughter messing with the help. So you set Mason up for a little accident.

Prove it.

Give me time. Project Metamorpho, what is it?

A game changer. Stagg Industries has found a way to weaponize genetic tissue. Imagine it: a soldier in battle. Impervious to weather, bullets, fire, anything elemental. But not just impervious, a Stagg branded Metamorpho can also manipulate these same elements, turning them against the attacker.

It's going to kill Mason.

We're still ironing out the kinks. The important thing is: he'll never have my daughter and you'll never tell anyone what you just saw.

How did you know? How did you know he'd come?

There are two things in life everyone's powerless against. Love and revenge.

Silver Monkey

Yield now, and I will grant you both quick deaths.

Pass.

Tatsu Yamashiro

What he said.

Lady Shiva

Oh, the flower you picked has lovely petals, Silver Monkey. I wonder if the same can be said of her soul.

Please, Lady Shiva, I never meant to betray you. It was Silver Monkey who...

Lady Shiva

Shh, shh. Quiet now, my lotus blossom. (Lady Shiva recites an incantation and activates the sword)

What're you doing? No, wait! (The sword drains her soul, leaving her a colorless, skin-covered skeleton)

Lady Shiva

Don't worry, she's not dead. Not yet, anyway. As for you, Silver Monkey, you won't be joining your flower in the sword. My plans for you are far for interesting, and... painful. (Two ninjas carry Silver Monkey away) I'm actually quite grateful to Silver Monkey. Yes, he betrayed me, but he also delivered two of my most troublesome adversaries. This is a most gracious windfall for me, and for the Sword.

... You forgot one thing.

Lady Shiva

Did I? And what is that?

The rocket.

Lady Shiva

What rocket? (a rocket bursts through the window, nearly hitting Lady Shiva, and blowing off the roof. Alfred is shown holding a smoking rocket launcher.)

Alfred Pennyworth

... That rocket. (Batman breaks through his bonds, then frees Katana)

Tatsu Yamashiro

... Glove saws?

Acid capsules... but good idea.

You're welcome.

What are you doing here? This is Gotham PD's collar.

If that were true, you would have gotten here before me.

You're not doing anything until you're suited up and armed.

Tatsu Yamashiro

[smiles mischievously] Okay, then. [Tatsu walks into the costume room, grabs a katana and an eye mask from the wall, and steps out of the room, wearing the mask and the katana strapped to her back] Suited up and armed.

A sword and a mask, that's all.

I can fight in this. [demonstrates her sword moves] See? There's one more thing. You have a code name, and I want one too. Call me Katana, when we're in the field.

I get it. We have different fighting styles. But our differences make us stronger. You know, like to-may-to to-mah-to.

No. Those are the same things said differently.

Exactly my point.

Just... follow my lead.

Take out your handcuffs!

Rail or pipe?

Surprise me.

Autopilot.

Engaged. The probability of successfully accomplishing this mission is less than 8%, Batman.

Then you'd better wish me luck.

Good luck, Batman.

Thanks.

Look who flew the coop.

Magpie.

Magpie, enough.

Magpie

I just broke out of prison for you. A little appreciation would be nice.
