Birds of Prey · Season 1
Hey Alfred, what's going on down there. Did we get a lead?
I believe so, Miss Dinah. In fact, Miss Helena is currently on her way to the ruins of Old Gotham by the way of the sewers. Without galoshes I might add.
I can't believe it.
It was an impractical choice.
She went on without me?
[Condescendingly] Ah, so you wish to wade in the sewage as well. [She walks away] It's amazing what appeals to the youth of today.
[Stepping through sewer gate] Well, doesn't look like we're in Kansas anymore, Toto.
[Over comm] Uh, I prefer to think of myself as "The Wizard".
Yeah, of course you do.
[From control room] And as for not being in Kansas, your GPS's signal is weakening.
[Comes up behind Helena] What a pleasant surprise. [Shoots a tranquilizer at Helena Kyle with her walking to him and collapsing at him] Oh, I do love a woman who makes the first move.
What do you want?
I've been watching you.
Oh, my God. Don't come any closer.
On the contrary, those electrical hands of yours are what attracted me to you.
[Introducing Huntress] And in the cage to the right, her challenger, the Green Scorpion...
Green Scorpion?
...of Doom!
Great, because that makes it better.
[To thief] Give up yet?
Give up? You want some advice, girlie? Turn and run.
I'm sorry. Running... it's just not my style.
What do you think, Alfred? Does Helena have a secret identity or not?
Actually, not.
Hm-mm.
I've always maintained that without a mask, there are no separate identities. It's a dangerous choice for a crime fighter. That being said, Miss Helena is quite capable. And if she feels she can manage where others have failed, then I'm sure she can succeed.
How do you do that? Support me and undermine me all in the same sentence.
It's a British thing.
To New Gotham High's coolest graduating class.
Back in town, baby.
Excuse me. Sorry.
What the hell?
Didn't mean to... Joey Norvillion. Oh, good, it's me, Cam Henderson. Remember, I used to tutor you in trig?
Whatever, geek.
Helena Kyle.
Hi.
Well, tell me... Miss Helena Kyle... what have you been up to these past five years?
Well, I am a bartender by day... and a meta-vigilante patrolling the rooftops of New Gotham by night.
You're a bartender, huh?
Yeah. A really good bartender.
Hmm. Yeah. I bet you are.
I feel good, great actually. Better than I have in a long time.
To what do we attribute this sudden cheerful outlook?
I don't know. Things have just been... working out. That guy I was telling you about, the police officer? I decided to talk to him. Trust him. Tell him things about who I really am.
Like, what kinds of things?
It's hard to explain.
Well, you almost killed that man.
Not really. Even though I wanted to more than anything.
Yeah, well, you didn't. So, what do you say we try that dinner.
Yeah. Or we could... go straight to dessert.
Yeah. We could do that.
Oh, Mistress Harley? Buttle this!
[Barbara has Harley in a chokehold]
Harley Soft lips, so sweetly tender... Cute little trickle of blood running out his side when he died.
Huntress Barbara, don't! [Jumps onto the platform where Barbara and Harley are]
Stay BACK, Helena!
Barbara, listen to me- AAARGH!
There's nothing left to say!
Yes, there is. You have saved me so many times, it's my turn. When my mom died, you told me something that I didn't understand until right now: You told me, revenge might dull the pain but the less we felt, the less we were.
It was a lie!
No, it wasn't. Barbara, this is my last chance to get forgiveness for what I did. If I could give my life to have Wade back, you know I would... But I CAN'T. Barbara, WE DON'T KILL, no matter what. I can't let you do this. It makes us less. IT MAKES US LESS.
You know who you are, Helena.
Yeah. I kind of feel like... maybe now I do. Maybe I'm not Batman's little girl anymore. Sometimes I feel like he's watching... looking over my shoulder. Looking down on all of us.
Kind of like a big guardian bat!
[Laughs] Kinda! Kind of like that.
[Last lines of the series] Master Bruce, I thought you might want to know; your daughter's doing rather well. You would be most proud. Most proud indeed.
