Quotes
-
Bruce Wayne : [Bruce Wayne in the mechanized bat suit just risked a heart attack to fight and defeat Inque] Now do you believe me about why I retired?
Terry McGinnis : Not entirely, but tonight, I'm glad you didn't stay retired.
-
Bruce Wayne : Back at the cryogenics place, weren't you wondering why Inque didn't morph into her human form and just walk out with the other workers?
Terry McGinnis : Uh, yeah!... Sort of...
-
Bruce Wayne : [upon seeing what looks like Terry] You got away?
[as he approaches Terry, he is constricted by an inky tentacle as Terry morphs into Inque]
Inque : He didn't get away... and neither will you.
-
Terry McGinnis : [hearing an alarm] What's that?
Bruce Wayne : It's an alarm system I set up. I've got it hooked into the prison and a few other places. Helps me keep track of certain friends of ours.
Terry McGinnis : So, which one is it?
Bruce Wayne : [seeing the alarm's origin] Inque.
[Terry goes to suit up]
Bruce Wayne : Downtown, Gotham Cryogenics.
Batman : On my way.
Bruce Wayne : Terry.
[holding out Mr. Freeze's cryo-gun]
Bruce Wayne : Just in case.
-
Terry McGinnis : What's this little toy do?
Bruce Wayne : Careful. It's an exosuit. It amplifies effort and increases endurance.
Terry McGinnis : And?
Bruce Wayne : When I tested it, it put too much strain on my heart.
Terry McGinnis : You'd let a little thing like a heart problem stop you from being Batman? I don't believe it.
Bruce Wayne : Would I lie to you?
Terry McGinnis : No. But you hold things back.
-
Batman : Got some bad news.
Bruce Wayne : Let me guess. She got away.
Batman : And broke the freeze gun while she was at it. But that wasn't the bad news.
Bruce Wayne : It gets worse?
Batman : Uh-huh. She knows where the entrance to the cave is, remember?
-
Bruce Wayne : Mind telling me what you're doing?
Terry McGinnis : Sealing up the cracks, making sure she can't ooze in.
Bruce Wayne : You really think she's coming here, don't you?
Terry McGinnis : She was here before. She knows the way.
Bruce Wayne : Does she? It was dark that night, and the Batmobile goes awfully fast. And then there's the way you drive.
Terry McGinnis : You got a better plan?
Bruce Wayne : I do. It's called getting to know your enemy. Inque left a little of herself on your suit. I'll be at the microscope.
-
Bruce Wayne : The reason she didn't do it is because she couldn't. She can't go back to her human form.
Terry McGinnis : And if I were her, I'd be looking for a good doctor right now.
Bruce Wayne : [sarcastic] You think?
Terry McGinnis : Yeah. There can't be too many doctors or labs that do that kind of work around here. Let's get on the computer and make a list of...
[Bruce holds out a disk]
Terry McGinnis : Oh.
Bruce Wayne : One other thing.
[handing him an electric batarang]
Bruce Wayne : It's not as good as Mr. Freeze's gun, but it's the best I could do on short notice. Be careful.
-
Batman : It's some kind of arena. Got a big glass dome. Looks like nobody's been inside in years.
Bruce Wayne : What else can you tell me?
Batman : Sorry. I wasn't exactly awake when they brought me here, but...
Bruce Wayne : [hearing him trail off] But what? Terry? Terry, you all right? Answer me!
Inque : That's the old guy, isn't it? This is gonna be perfect. Tell him you're at the old Gotham Hills arena and he should come right away.
[Batman remains silent; groaning, she wraps an inky tentacle around his throat]
Inque : Tell him.
[he still remains silent]
Inque : All right, then. Hope you're still listening, old man. We're at the Gotham Hills arena. Get over here right now... or Batman dies.
Batman : No! Stay where you are! She'll kill us both if you...
[his words are muffled, and it's revealed she's kissing him]
Inque : He'll be here. What is he, your father? Grandfather? Well, I'll find out soon enough.
