[Luthor interrupts the Ultra-Humanite's opera program]
Humanite! How can you stand that caterwauling?!
Music is one of the meager pleasures I'm allowed in here, along with a few other necessities. You should try the culture channel. It might improve your disposition.
There's nothing wrong with my disposition that a little freedom wouldn't cure.
... I need your help. And I can make it worth your while.
What do I need with money?
Everyone needs money. The only question is, how much ?
I'm used to being thanked when I save someone.
I'm not used to being saved.
Common criminals. Is this what I've been reduced to?
Criminals, yes. But common? Most certainly not.
Lex Luthor? Well, the plot thins.
And I had those flames out before the firemen even stepped off their trucks.
Which might explain why you can't get a date.
Yeah... Hey! What's that supposed to mean?
[Luthor is knocked back during the battle with the Justice League]
There goes our paycheck. [catches him] I'd hate to see anything happen to you, Lex.
[About Copperhead, who was captured after biting Batman]
I'm going down to interrogate him.
No, you're staying here. That venom almost killed you.
[watches Superman leave] Right. [sits up and removes wrist IV]
[Batman, recovering from being poisoned, is typing at a computer.]
You really should be resting. [Batman keeps typing] I know this must be hard for you, feeling vulnerable. You're the only one of us without special powers, but you don't need to prove yourself. You're a valued member of this team, and we're only trying to-
[Gets up] I'm taking the shuttle. Unless you want to try and stop me.
[pauses] No. [moves out of the way]
[After the Injustice Gang fail to defeat the Justice League]
"The best at what you do". What was I thinking?!
C Cheetah
We did everything we could.
Did you? Did you fight like your lives depended on it? Did you fight to the last man?
You get what you pay for, Luthor.
Are you saying you want MORE money? You want to be rewarded for failure?! I oughta take the whole bunch of you and-
[grabs him around the neck] And what?!
Go ahead! Do it! You'll be saving me months of bedpans and feeding tubes! And you'll also guarantee that none of you will ever see a penny from me!
[pauses, then drops Luthor] You're crazy.
[entering] And what's wrong with that? It's done wonders for me!
[annoyed] Get out of here!
Oh, Lexy, I'm hurt! How could you have this little party without inviting me?
It's not a party. Grundy, get rid of him.
[Grundy moves towards Joker only to be knocked out by him]
But seriously Lex, you need me.
Maybe so, but I know something you don't know: I know how the Bat thinks!
Lex, Lex, listen to someone who KNOWS. [whispering and pointing to Luthor's gun] Don't wait. Do it now.
You don't like my decisions? Leave! [pushes him away]
[Superman and Flash interrogate Copperhead]
I keep telling you, I don't know anything! I'm just...
SF Superman, Flash and Copperhead
... "an innocent victim of circumstances".
[Superman grabs Copperhead and pushes him against a wall]
Copperhead, when are you going to get some sense and tell us where Luthor is?!
[not intimidated] Oooh, this must be the part where I get so scared, I spill my guts.
What are you gonna do, boy-scout? Short my sheets? Give me a wedgie?
[drops Copperhead, and turns to two guards] Take him back to a holding cell.
[being taken away] Hasta la vista! [hisses]
[sarcastically] That went well.
[Cheetah is supposed to be guarding Batman, but they end up talking about her past]
C Cheetah
My research opened up whole new worlds. There was so much to do...
C Cheetah
You know about that?
You didn't have enough for research subjects, so you used yourself.
C Cheetah
And now I'm a freak.
That's not what I see. I see someone who was willing to sacrifice everything for a cause she believed in.
C Cheetah
[softens] How do you know so much about me?
Let's just say, cats aren't the only creatures who are curious.
C Cheetah
[sidles up to him] Too much curiosity can be dangerous.
[She kisses him]
[While Cheetah "guards" Batman]
She's been down there too long...
Forget it. There's no way I'm going to leave you alone with him.
But, Lexy, where's your sense of fun? Besides, it won't cost you a cent!
[Luthor stumbles, clutching his heart]
Maybe we should get paid now...
[as the villains desert him] No! We can still win if we lure them here! I have a plan, but we've got to stick together.
Hello, Kitty! [knocks Cheetah out with a high-voltage joy-buzzer] And they say I'm not a team player.
