Alfred Pennyworth quotes from Beware the Batman

Alfred Pennyworth

Tatsu, you must be patient.

Tatsu Yamashiro

There's patient. And then there's spending weeks encasing me in one immoveable suit after another.

Alfred Pennyworth

(bringing in protein shakes) Will it be one straw or two for dinner this evening?

Tatsu Yamashiro

Sorry, Alfred. I kind of promised Jason I'd let him make dinner for me tonight. I just hope the nerd can cook.

Alfred Pennyworth

You might consider taking it a little easier on her.

Bruce Wayne

I might, but I won't.

Alfred Pennyworth

Just out of curiosity, were you ever going to tell me you were visiting her at Blackgate? What happened to Margaret Sorrow--to Magpie--was not...

My fault. Margaret Sorrow didn't understand the consequences of hiding who you are. I thought I could help.

Alfred Pennyworth

Help who? Magpie... or yourself?

Alfred Pennyworth

Good morning. Breakfast is ready. Can I interest you in some solid food today?

The new carbon-nanotube cape frame is a significant upgrade. It's strong enough to keep an elephant in the air.

Alfred Pennyworth

Handy... if you encounter a free-falling elephant. Liquid again. Your streak is intact.

Bruce Wayne

We all have a hand in this. The moment we solve the world's energy crisis is something we all want to remember.

Alfred Pennyworth

Careful, Bruce. The higher one aims, the further one can fall. Icarus learned that the hard way.

Bruce Wayne

Icarus just needed better technology.

Bruce Wayne

Once we step through this door, the world will never be the same.

Alfred Pennyworth

At least you're maintaining perspective.

Tatsu Yamashiro

Yeah. Now it's official. There's no way this can live up to your hype.

Alfred Pennyworth

This isn't your fault. No one can foresee everything. Not even you.

You've been telling me that since I was a kid.

Alfred Pennyworth

And it never quite sunk in.

Young Bruce Wayne

I couldn't help my parents. But I helped you.

Alfred Pennyworth

This time. But you must respect your limits.

Young Bruce Wayne

Not if I don't have any.

Alfred Pennyworth

You can do better than that, Master Wayne.

Young Bruce Wayne

That wasn't fair.

Alfred Pennyworth

That's why it's called an unfair advantage.

Alfred Pennyworth

Ra's is trying to drive a wedge between us, nothing more. I am not your enemy.

Tatsu Yamashiro

For your sake, I hope that is true.

Bruce Wayne

Batman needs to get back out there, Alfred.

Alfred Pennyworth

Given your current condition, are you sure that's wise?

Bruce Wayne

No. But when has Batman ever listened to reason?

I appreciate you going to all this trouble.

Bruce Wayne

It's no trouble at all. I have plenty of... how many guest rooms do we have, Alfred? Seventeen?

Alfred Pennyworth

Nineteen. We missed two on the last inventory.

Bruce Wayne

See? Plenty.

Alfred Pennyworth

Have you two been....?

Tatsu Yamashiro

Yes.

Alfred Pennyworth

I see. I'll make sure to have your suits deionized so that they're, uh, more palatable.

Not a good place for a midnight stroll, old-timer.

Alfred Pennyworth

I may be old, but I never stroll.
