Lt. Gordon quotes from Beware the Batman

Somebody get the Jaws of Life. Let's cut that guy out.

Even when I know you're coming, I still can't get used to that!

So it's true. They have Batman. Half of Gotham is under siege. The other half is terrified and armed. Not a good cocktail.

Barbara Gordon

So, what perp are you after today?

First, it's "dad", not "lieutenant". Second, "perp"?

Barbara Gordon

Yeah, perp. Bad guy.

I know what perp means, Barbara.

Magpie

What is this? Whose face is that?

You don't know. Two personalities in one body, unaware of each other.

Magpie

What're you talking about?

Margaret Sorrow was part of an experiment Braxton and Ravencroft were conducting. For your participation, you received early released.

Magpie

No! They took my memories! THEY STOLE THEM FROM ME!

I'm sorry, but you did this to yourself. Margaret Sorrow volunteered. The experiment was meant to strip the bad out of criminals, and in your case it worked. For a while anyway. (Magpie looks at herself in the mirror) They gave you a new name, a new face, a new life. But sometimes the bad is just too strong. It has a way of coming back.

Magpie

No! Lies! (She punches the mirror) I want to know who I am, and she can give that back to me! (Magpie extends her fingernails into claws, about to kill Ravencroft, when Gordon shots her nails off.)

Don't move, Batman. You either... bird-girl.

Magpie

(She picks up the shot-off nails) Shiny, shiny. (She throws her nails at Gordon. One of them cuts his arm and it makes him cry in pain. Magpie then jumps up, knocks Gordon down and runs off. Batman follows her, but is stopped by Gordon's gunshot.)

You're not going anywhere.

We don't have time for this, Lieutenant. Help the doctor, I'll stop Magpie. (He goes after Magpie)

(After defeating Magpie) No more shiny shiny. (He takes his utility belt from Magpie and puts it back on his waist) Is the doctor safe Lieutenant? (He turns around to see Lieutenant Gordon pointing his gun at him.)

Shaken up but fine. She had no idea that Cassie was once Margaret Sorrow.

Makes sense. Different face, different memories. My guess: Magpie subconsciously drove her here for revenge.

Well, now Margaret, Cassie, Magpie, whatever-her-name goes back to jail.

Put her back in the hole that created her. Is that justice?

That's the law.

Will I be getting the same justice?

Yes, but not tonight. Just so we're clear, nothing has changed between us. (As he talks, he puts handcuffs on the unconscious Magpie) We aren't friends. You helped me tonight, so I owe you. But the next time we cross paths... (He turns around to see that Batman has disappeared)

Hello?... How did you get this number? And how did you reach me? We're 300 feet underground.

Hacked your phone and modified your SIM chip. Gotham PD should get better security for their equipment.

I'll stick that in the suggestion box when I get a chance.

The man in the suit...

Joseph Krimple, AKA Icepick Joe.

What? Who are you talking to? Where am I? Get me out of this thing!

What's your point?

Icepick is one of Tobias Whale's hit-squad goons.

Stay away from Whale, Batman.

Not an option. Just thought you deserved a courtesy call. (Hangs up)

(Dials phone) Rodriquez, it's Gordon. I need you to assemble a... (Dial tone) Hello? Hello? (Looks at phone, says 'No Service' on screen) Batman can get reception, but not me.

Someone is sending Gotham a message, Lieutenant.

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

Barbara Gordon

Hey, Dad. I got us that low-fat low-salt corn-beef hash you like.

Barb, you know I happen to like the one with extra fat and extra salt.

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 welcome.

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

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

Barbara Gordon

Wow. Batman is so cool. And did you see? He works with a girl. I could totally be like her one day. When can I have a grapnel?

Not until you're old enough.

Barbara Gordon

When will that be?

Never.

Why don't you go get yourself a donut, Dombrowski?

Nah, the wife says I got to cut back.

Then only get a half-dozen this time.

Hey. Yeah!

I thought you'd been captured.

Early release for good behavior.

I am officially the worst father of the year for letting you do this.

Barbara Gordon

Dad, I just have to hardwire my laptop into Fall Point's internal network. Once I'm in the kernel, I can destroy the Cortex. We'll be heroes.

We'll be dead! This place is crawling with ninjas.

Barbara Gordon

They won't kill us, they'll just take us hostage. It's all good.
