Young Justice Season 1 quotes

Lagoon Boy

The idea of cooking crabs is amazing enough, but making them into little cakes?

You're going to choke.

If only.

After leading this team for a year, I'm feeling peckish for a little action.

So now we're never talking again?

Gee, you read my mind.

I hate monkey suits.

(telepathically) Lagoon Boy, stand down.

Lagoon Boy

(telepathically) Sorry, you're breaking up. (imitated radio static)

(telepathically) There's no static on the psychic link!

Kaldur'ahm

(Stabbing Artemis) Welcome back.

Black Manta

Congratulations, Kaldur'ahm. You had quite a day. Capturing the Atlantean, killing a former teammate, destroying the com-sat.

Kaldur'ahm

My crew did not destroy the com-sat, Father. It's rocket must have malfunctioned. Our victory was mere luck.

Black Manta

I don't believe in luck. Which is why I arranged to have a bomb with an altitude sensors smuggled onto the com-sat rocket days ago. This was your final test. To see if you would take credit for what you have not accomplished.

Kaldur'ahm

And what if I have succeeded?

Black Manta

Then another test would have awaited. For it is not in success where true character is revealed, but in failure. I'm quite proud of you, my boy. You're ready for the next level.

Wally West

Uh, dude, why are you giving bling to my dead girlfriend?

Glamor charm. Courtesy of Zatanna. Visio morphic spell, I think. She said it backwards.

Wally West

Wow, you look exactly the same.

To the four of us. And only us. But to anyone else, you're a totally different person.

Artemis Crock

The more impressive trick is how you got something so specific from Zatanna without revealing who or what it's for.

We have a history.

Wally West

(nudges Nightwing) Dude.

Kaldur'ahm

It is time.

Artemis Crock

What could go wrong?

Wally West

Don't say that.

They're in. We're through the hard part.

Wally West

Who are you kidding? It only gets more dangerous from here.

So let me get this straight. While I was on ice, you found another Roy Harper, the sidekicks formed their own team, aliens invaded the Earth, and Ollie grew that dopey goatee?

We try not to call ourselves sidekicks.

Oliver Queen

You don't like the goatee?

So missing the point!

Lex Luthor and the Light, this criminal organization he works with, abducted you. they amputated your arm.

Why? To keep me from using my bow?

No, they needed an endless supply of your DNA. To perfect their human cloning process...

So that's what you are. A clone.

Yeah... they grew me, or rather force-grew me. In a matter of months, I looked your age. They programmed me with all your memories and skills... and worse.

Oliver Queen

Then they spoon-fed me clues to your location. I thought I was doing detective's work, but in hindsight... you've been missing three months. I'd been going crazy, so when I found you- him... I didn't question the good fortune. I had no idea it wasn't the real... the original you. No idea Luthor had stored you on ice all this time.

[to Red Arrow] So... what you're saying is, you took my place. You've been living my life for eight years.

Oliver Queen

And he's been tirelessly searching for you in five of those years.

Huh, but not you, Ollie. You gave up on me.

I don't want to be the cause of more conflict between you two. I'd understand if you'd never want to lay eyes on me again.

I dunno. Seems the clone didn't do anything wrong. He didn't ask to be created, plus he found me. I can't blame him for this. [to Oliver] BUT I CAN TOTALLY BLAME YOU!

Oliver Queen

Roy, I...

We were partners! Friends! How could you not know I had been replaced? How could you leave me in Luthor's hands for eight years?... And how did I not see how useless you are. Get out. GET OUT!

Look, uh "Roy"... I need some time to process all this.

I understand.

Oliver Queen

It's a curse, isn't it. Having me for a mentor. Speedy, Red Arrow... Artemis. The three of you all poster children of the "Stay away from Green Arrow club".

I may have not always shown it over the years, but I don't feel that way. Neither did Artemis. And trust me, I know Roy doesn't feel that way either. Not really. You're a good man, Ollie. So get back in there. He needs you, whether he knows it or not.

You stole those freeze-dried Chicken Whizzies from my locker, didn't you?

Bart Allen

Hey, hey, hey, where I come from, it's not stealing, it's scavenger rights, okay? The point is, we don't have Chicken Whizzies, freeze dried or otherwise, in my era, so blame Kid Flash. He got me hooked.

Forget I asked.

Bart Allen

[about the fallen heroes shrine] So, why is this here? I mean, it's pretty and everything, but these people are heroes. In the line of duty and all that. They should have giant statues, big crashing memorials in the Hall of Justice or something.

Yeah, I asked that too. Captain Atom said the League don't want or need a public shrine to it's fallen. But I dunno. Seems to me they just don't wanna advertise we're not immortal. The handful of regular people who've seen me in action think I'm this guy in a new costume [points at a shrine of Ted Kord] The world will never know of Ted Kord's sacrifice.

Bart Allen

But you know. And you're carrying on the grand Blue Beetle heroic tradition, right?

I wish. It's such a total rip. Superboy has Superman, Wonder Girl has Wonder Woman, Robin has Batman, Nightwing AND Batgirl... You've been in this era, like what? Five minutes? And already you have three Flash mentors. One who feeds you junk food. But me... I never even got the chance to meet the guy who should have been my mentor.

Bart Allen

Heh, I hear that. You know, WE have more in common than you think. Our love of Chicken Whizzies for example? Let me buy ya some to replace the bag I salvaged. We'll hang, it'll be totally crash.

Uh, sure.

Bart Allen

Great!... Got any money?

[At Artemis' grave] Thank you for coming, Wally. This has been the hardest two days of my life. Harder than prison, than... losing the use of my legs, and losing Jade to the life... I could not have survive this without you.

Jade Nguyen

We had our differences, but Artemis was my sister. And I loved her. I should have taken better care of her. [to Lawrence] Protected her from you, for starters.

Yeah, well, too late for that now, little girl.

Jade Nguyen

But it's not too late to get vengeance on her killer. Aqualad is mine.

As usual, Jade, you're missing the point. Artemis' death is an insult to our professional reputations. The son of Black Manta cannot kill Sportsmaster's daughter. Not without running it by me first. I can't let this stand, or everyone will think I'm a punk! You can have Aqualad. I want a reckoning with Manta.

So, "new Roy" goes by Red Arrow. Wow. That's an original name.
