[to Gordon] Oh, you need a favor. You must be monumentally screwed.

Look, you've caught some bad breaks. Blackgate, Lee... I don't know what happened when you went to see her, but I can take a pretty good guess. But at some point, you're going to have to make peace with the decisions you've made.
What if I can't?
Take it from me, you don't want to wake up one day and realize that 20 years have gone by.
Guess you're gonna have to trust me.
Remember to chisel that into my tombstone.
[after learning that Nygma retracted all the bribes Penguin paid to have himself elected]
Butch?
[Butch draws his revolver and aims it at Nygma's head, causing gasps of alarm from the surrounding staffers.]
Give me one reason why I shouldn't let Butch kill you where you stand!
Well, there are about thirty witnesses...
I DON'T CARE!
[sounds of distant cheering]
[nods to the television] And there's that.

In what can only be viewed as a seismic shift even by Gotham standards, former underworld kingpin Oswald Cobblepot has won the Mayor's office by a landslide...
[The staffers start to cheer, Oswald shushes them.]
[tearing up] I still won... they really want me as mayor.
[Cobblepot has just been elected mayor]
I can't be bought, but I can be stolen with a glance. I'm useless to one, but priceless to two. Love. They love me.
If you would have bought the election, you never would have known. Now you do. Feels good, doesn't it?
How did you know I would win?
I believe in you, Oswald. Even when you don't believe in yourself.
[to Butch] You. You never believed I could win this election on my own. I think maybe you're not cut out for this after all.
What?!
Oh, don't worry, I still need someone to crack skulls. [to Nygma] C'mon, Ed, we've got plans to make.
The people love you. Gangs fear you. And tomorrow, the cream of Gotham will be gathering to celebrate you. What more could someone ask for?
Someone to share it with.
Let me see this through. When I get my place beside Penguin back, I'll protect you.
Oh, you'll do more than that. You'll owe me. And one day, I'm gonna collect.
How long do I have to stay?
As long as takes for you to be seen out in the world, Master Bruce, being Bruce Wayne and smiling.
So this is our life now. Fake smiles and mingling. I miss the old days.
So do I.
I can't believe you'd turn on Oswald too.
Uh, hello? Pot? Kettle? Black?
There's something between us. You have to see that.
Rule one: Don't ever tell me what I have to do.
[She kisses him]
So you do have feelings for me? I'm confused.
Good. [leaves]
This is about your sister, isn't it? In your addled brain, you blame me for what happened to her.
Don't you talk about her!
I got to know her, Jervis. She was a good person - that's why she hated you. Why she died trying to get away from you. You want revenge, kill yourself.
[Tetch is holding Lee and Valerie hostage]
Now, introductions. Leslie Thompkins, meet Valerie Vale. You have one very important thing in common: You're two halves of Jim Gordon's heart.
You and Jim are made for each other.
Thanks.
It's not a compliment.
Hello, Luke, I'm Mayor Cobblepot. Why aren't you playing with the other children?
LLuke
What if they don't like me?
Well, how would you ever know if you don't give it a try? [smiles deviously] And if they don't like you, wait for them to turn their backs and push them down the stairs.

You struggle to regain me when I'm lost... you struggle to obtain me. What am I?
Time.
