SladeNext time, my plans will succeed. And the Titans will pay.
SladeCome now, Robin. You'll have to do better than that. I haven't even broken a sweat.
[As Robin is terminated to win, Slade grabs his hand as his counter move]
SladeGood technique.
[Slade bends his arm and throws Robin across the room.]
SladeGood, but not perfect.
[Closing line]
SladeI know it seems bad now. But trust me, you'll learn to like it.
SladeGood, Robin. You're doing much better than last time. A few more years of training, and you might actually pose a threat.
SladeNow, Terra… you walked right into a trap. You of all people should know better. But at least you and I are finally getting a chance to talk.
SladeThe day has begun.
SladeYou might be able to stop time, birthday girl, but you can't stop me. You can't stop any of it, really. I have to say, Raven, when I found out the truth, I was very impressed. All this time, I had no idea. The power lurking inside you. The glorious destiny that awaits. It's always the quiet ones, isn't it?
[Raven groans]
SladeBut honestly, did you think you could just blow out the candles and wish it all away? Today is the day it begins. You've known this all your life. It is going to happen. And no matter what you wish, no matter where you go, no matter how you squirm, there is nothing you can do to stop it.
SladeWe'll be in touch. Oh...and happy birthday.
SladeFor the record, I'm nobody's servant.
Now talk! Who's Slade? Why does he want this chip? And why are you working...for...him?
SladeExcellent work, Robin.
Slade!
SladeReally, I think your skills are improving.
No more games! What do you want?
SladeBut you do lack patience. If you're really so curious about my intentions, perhaps we should meet face to face.
Tell me where you're hiding and I'll be there in a heartbeat!
SladePatience, Robin. Patience.
Rumor has it, you're interested in this.
SladeI'm interested in many things, Mr. …
X. Red X.
SladeHmmm. Catchy. So, are you proposing a sale or a gift?
A partnership. I give you the chip, you cut me in on your plans.
SladePartnership. My, my, we are ambitious. But an alliance cannot be forged from one small chip. If you're going to win my trust, I'll require more.
Just tell me what you want.
SladeImpressive, Red X. I tapped into the security cameras to catch your performance. You treated the Titans to quite a show.
Glad you enjoyed it. Is the audition over?
SladePatience. Trust is easy to destroy, but it takes time to build. One last test. Prove yourself and we'll meet to discuss your future.
Good.
[He takes the mask off, revealing himself to be Robin.]
It's about time we met face to face.
SladeExcellent work. Honestly, I couldn't have done better myself.
So, do we have a deal?
SladeIndeed. You and I are so very much alike. It seems only natural that we should be partners.
What are they for? I need to know what we're planning… partner.
SladePatience. You can't expect me to trust you with such sensitive information right away… can you… Robin?
SladeCareful. I wouldn't want you getting hurt.
I'm not the one who's going to get hurt. Now hand them over!
SladeRobin. I thought we had a deal.
Sorry. I have a strict rule against giving stolen technology to psychos.
SladeHow very noble of you. But stealing in order to trap me? That wasn't so noble. Two wrongs don't make a-
Don't ever lecture me! Whatever you're planning, Slade, it's over!
SladeOn the contrary, Robin, it's just begun.
You… saved me?
SladeI'm not through with you.
[He hauls Robin back up and tosses him across the rooftop. The brawl starts all over again, until Robin seems to have the upper hand.]
This ends now!
[He pulls the man's mask off. It's revealed to be another robot.]
SladePatience, Robin. We'll meet face to face some other time. Oh, and speaking of time…
[The timer is set as the robot was about to self-destruct.]
Heh. At least he didn't get the chips.
