Helena and Dr. Quinzel in “Slick”

Helena

It's hard for me to come here, Harleen.

Dr. Quinzel

Why is that, Helena?

Helena

I don't trust people.

Dr. Quinzel

Luckily for you, this is your last court-mandated session.

Helena

Then I must be officially sane. What a relief.

Dr. Quinzel

You don't have to come back, unless you want to. I know you think you can't trust anyone but I'd like to help you, if you'd let me. Why is it so difficult for you to let people in, Helena?

Helena

[Beat] After Mom was killed I found out about my dad, who he was.

Dr. Quinzel

Well, most people would be excited to discover that a billionaire philanthropist like Bruce Wayne was their father.

Helena

I only wanted one thing from him: That he find the man that killed my mother.

Dr. Quinzel

And then?

Helena

And then I wanted that man dead.

Dr. Quinzel

We can't just go around killing people, Helena.

Helena

Yeah, that's... That's what I hear. All I wanted from him was revenge, Harleen. If it had been the other way, Mom would've done it. They hadn't been together in years. She would've killed for him. And that's when I learned what my mom always knew: Rely on no one but yourself.
