[draws a gun] Hand over the part, now.

[stepping in front of Barbara] Don't point that at the baby!

...What? [quickly lowers the gun] I did not! I was merely trying to make a general threatening gesture with a firearm...

But you did, though, you pointed the gun at the baby...

All right, fine, I'M SORRY! Now give us what we want!

[in labor] Oh, you think I'm stupid enough to have the part on me? It's hidden away somewhere safe! And if you think you can torture me into telling you where, there is literally nothing more painful than what I am going through right now!

[Nygma reveals the submarine part.]

How long have you had that?

Long enough to know she'd never let it out of her sight.

[starts to laugh, then] And you stuck around long enough to risk both of our lives to save Barbara's?! [realizes] Or was it to protect Lee?

Do you want me to answer that, or do you want to sail away from here?

Bon voyage.

Son, if you're gonna stick a gun in my face, you should at least know that you're doing it wrong.

I'm sure you recognize this knife.

You touch my baby, and I will turn you into a pile of ash, just like your father.

Bit cruel, don't you think, to let this little one to get too attached when you're not going to be around much longer? Soon, you and Bruce Wayne will see Gotham and Jim Gordon's precious green zone destroyed. Then, I'll allow you to die. My father made his name destroying empires. Now, It's my turn.

Oswald. Come in.

Still have those eyes in the back of your head, Jim.

No, you just have a remarkably recognizable odor. Part dandy, part snake. After all these years, it hasn't changed. Drink?

No thank you. It dulls the senses.

That's what I was going for. Surprised you're still here. Would have thought you'd be long gone by now. That storm you warned me about for so long? It's finally here.

We've shared some turbulent times, you and I.

That we have.

When you spared my life on the pier that day and banished me from Gotham, it was the most lost I've ever been. Because I was away from the city, you see. It's part of me. You know what I'm talking about, because it's part of you, too. Sure, I could escape - with money, I might add - but then what? Stand on the shores of the mainland and watch the army burn it to the ground? Then watch tasteless industrialists and vapid politicians rebuild it? No. My life is etched on the walls of every alley and dirty warehouse here. My blood lives in its broken concrete. I'm staying to fight for my legacy!

BBane

You see, just a little ounce of pressure - that's all that separates the living from the dead.

I spent all those years trying to protect you, and here you are - a soldier. A soldier for good.

You've spent your life protecting me. Now it's time for me to do the same. It's time for me to protect Gotham, even if there's nothing left to defend.

We saved this city from certain damnation, but will we receive any thanks for our loyalty, for our selfless bravery? Of course not!

I don't want their thanks or their respect. You know what I felt, standing shoulder to shoulder with those people out there? Nothing. I feel absolutely nothing for those drab, boring people. That was me, once. Minimum wage at a thankless job at the GCPD. "Yes, sir." "No, sir." "Thank you so much, sir." Picking up scraps from my master's floor. Shy, awkward, pathetic Ed. Common criminals. Never again! I've shown this city who I truly am once before, and I'll do it again! They will bow to the Riddler, and they won't get up until I permit them to!

You're right. Our accomplishments erased. Our brilliant minds underrated. If they had let me run this city the way I wanted to, it would not be in ruins now. I had the men, the money, the guns...

Gordon took them. Why? Because he still sees you as Fish Mooney's umbrella boy, and he always will. I only came back to help him save the city so I could take it myself!

We would be strong together. No one could stop us.

Perhaps.

Let's make a pact, here and now. We will take what we want from who we want, and we will suffer no fools.

Shall we shake on that?

Please, we're brothers. A hug.

A hug it is.

[they embrace, and draw knives on each other, but cannot bring themselves to strike]

Life begins anew.

Shall we get to work?

Alfred... I'm writing to let you know I'm okay and that you won't hear from me for some time. But I will return when I'm able to protect the people I love. When Gotham needs me... I will return.

[Cobblepot has Gordon at gunpoint]

Remember when we stood here, Jim, all those years ago? Don Falcone wanted you to shoot me, you refused? Don't you wish now that you had done it?

Everyone will know you did this.

Let them! We both know that this has been a long time coming. Our story is over, old friend.

You want to kill me, fine. But there's no need to attack the Wayne Tower.

[pause] What are you talking about?

Breaking Nygma out of Arkham, attacking the gangs... what do you think, you can attack Wayne Tower and no one's going to notice?

I don't know what you're talking about. You and I stood shoulder to shoulder on those barricades, ready to die for this city. Six months later, you lock me up like an animal! This begins and ends with you and me!
