I believe you left this on my desk.
It's a riddle.
It's a cupcake with a live bullet sticking out of it.
It's a riddle.
It's menacing and weird and inedible.

I believe you left this on my desk.
It's a riddle.
It's a cupcake with a live bullet sticking out of it.
It's a riddle.
It's menacing and weird and inedible.
I'm done being careful.
You think you've been careful so far?
Men like Commissioner Loeb are never going to trust me.
You think you've been careful so far?
So why play nice?
You think... you've been careful so far?
Don't worry. I know what I'm doing. Let's go grab a beer.
Now you're messing with my mind. I need something stronger than a beer.
Falcone's gonna have the whole city looking for us.
Shall I get a broom then? Or would you rather continue crying over the shattered fragments of your young dreams?
I bid you welcome to the official grand opening of my newest night spot!
Ah, Bullock, still dressing in the dark and smelling like a taphouse whore.
Sorry, Harv, I know you had a thing for her.
I don't got a thing for nobody. My thing is for me.
I am so proud of you. I could spit.
[Fish calls Maroni from a pay phone]
Hello, Sal.
Hey.
You sound surprised. Let me guess, your little friend Penguin told you I was dead.
As good as.
I'm just on vacation for awhile. I'm not gonna lie, I thought I was going to end up on top, but I got played. Turns out Penguin has been Falcone's man the whole time. They played us both for suckers.
Is that right?
Indeed. He told me himself right as I was about to gut him.
You understand why I might be skeptical, considering it's you telling me this.
Oh, wake up, dummy. You mean to tell me this whole time that you haven't suspected anything? That he hasn't made one slip that he's had to explain away? Or maybe even you wanted to believe his lies. But it still gnaws at you, the doubt.
Maybe a couple of times.
It's time for you to get your house in order, Salvatore. And remember who put you wise.
Good morning, Captain.
Morning, Ed.
The more you cut me, the bigger I grow. What am I?
We're on a rooftop, Nygma. Don't tempt me.
Hey, don't stand so near the edge.
You worried about me, Captain? You know I don't start drinking till noon.
You notice I don't ask you about your love life.
My love life is an open book and a short and nasty one. But I'm working on the vic's friend in the phobia support group, and unless she's the killer, I think I'm in there.
You see why I don't ask?
How long have you been here?
Just last night... and a couple times before. I knew your girlfriend was gone, and I heard that you got sent to guard that loony bin, so I figured better here than sleeping on the street.
Have you seen Barbara?
No. Oh, so things are over between you two, huh? Sure you should be here, then? Maybe you're the one breaking in.
Get your things. I'm taking you someplace safe.
"Someplace safe", like Wayne Manor? That was your last great idea.
So someplace else. You're still the only witness to the Wayne murders.
Hmmm. You haven't talked to Bruce since you got back?
No, why?
Because I told him already. I didn't see anything. I lied. [pause] Sucks about your girlfriend. She's got some really nice stuff.
Can I help you?
I don't think so. Can you?
What do you want?
What I want, the poor have, the rich need, and if you eat it you'll die.
Is this... are you asking me a riddle?
Do you like riddles?
No.
So do you give up?
Friend, lookit...
Nothing. The answer's nothing. The poor have it, the rich need it, and if you eat it you'll die.
Who are you?
Edward Nygma.
I'm not--I'm not even afraid like you.
We're all afraid. Every man and woman on the planet. We're all standing on the abyss, paralyzed by fear.
