GoliathIt is the nature of humankind to fear what they do not understand. Their ways are not our ways.
Goliath[devastated] My angel of the night... [lets out a roar of anguish]
GoliathI've been denied everything... EVEN MY REVENGE!
GoliathKeep fighting, Elisa. Don't give up. Come back to us. Know that I will finish what you started. I will find the man who did this to you, and I will make him pay!
Goliath[To a comatose Coldstone] Someday, I trust, you will your way back, my brother, my sister. And when you do, I want you to be among friends.
GoliathMy strength has never depended on brute force, Demona, but on true friends.
GoliathI know I owe you a great debt for the mistake I made a year ago. And a greater debt for the education I received tonight. If the text wasn't new to me, it was at least worth revisiting.
Goliath[Spots Elisa] Elisa... She appears unharmed... But what could have possessed her to go off with those two...?
GoliathImpossible. Time is like a river, correcting its courses against any change. History cannot be changed.
GoliathI know from experience the transforming power of a child's love. The future is not written yet.
GoliathWere there anymore down in the rookery?
None. Only us.
What exactly does a "detective" do, lass?
Well, uh, when somebody does something wrong, I find out who and arrest them.
GoliathWho says what's wrong?
Well, we have a justice system. Laws, penalties, assessments. But the people decide.
GoliathYou mean the humans decide.
A good detective trusts no one.
GoliathThat's one thing we have in common.
We should choose names too. Names that suit our new lives here.
GoliathOh? And what might they be?
Mmmm... Brooklyn... I'm Brooklyn.
Broadway.
Lexington. Do you like it?
GoliathThey're all fine names. I guess he'll need a one as well.
Oh, ho. I've got one for him too. From now on, you're Bronx!
GoliathBut welcome to our home, especially now that Xanatos has been defeated. And this castle is truly ours once more!
That's what I wanted to talk to you about. You know that Xanatos was only convicted of receiving stolen property.
GoliathConvicted?
He was accused of that specific crime, and that's what he got sent to prison for. But he only got a six-month sentence, and we're lucky it wasn't suspended. His lawyers will probably get that time cut down. The point is, it's not safe here for you guys.
GoliathWhat are you saying?
I'm saying you have to find a new place to sleep during the day, a new home, Goliath.
GoliathNo! this castle is our home.
Sorry but it's not. Xanatos bought it lock, stock and gargoyle. Do you understand what i'm saying?. Every minute you stay here you're in danger.
GoliathYou worry too much elisa. Xanatos has been defeated. We are safe here.
