Where's Terry? (2000)

Eli Marienthal: DAK

Quotes 

• Batman : It sounds different here. And there's no condensation.

  DAK : What are you doing?

  Batman : [sticking them on the wall]  My explosives.

  DAK : You sure this is gonna work? I-I mean, if you use too much, you could blow up.

  Batman : You think Blight would have worried about something like that?

• Batman : DAK, we got through.

  DAK : Use some more of your explosives.

  Batman : I would if I had any left. You could make it through there, and you know how to find your way around here.

  DAK : You trust me to get help for you? After everything I've said?

  Batman : Better one of us gets out than neither of us.

• Batman : I don't even know your name.

  DAK : It's DAK.

  Batman : DAK? Sounds like a throat lozenge.

  DAK : It's short for Darius Arthur Kellman.

  Batman : Darius Arthur Kellman. Well, that explains it. Just get behind me, okay?

  DAK : I'm not afraid.

  [Batman pushes DAK behind him] 

  DAK : Hey!

  Batman : [throwing his batarang at his explosives, the detonation opens a hole in the wall]  No. That's what I heard. One of the support beams. Must be hollow.

• Batman : What happened?

  DAK : There was a cave-in, obviously.

  Batman : I remember now. I must've been out for a long time. How am I gonna explain it to...

  DAK : To who?

  Batman : Never mind.

  DAK : What were you doin' down here, anyway?

  Batman : I was following somebody, somebody I thought I recognized. He spotted me, and then... then this happened. What are you doin' down here?

  DAK : Right now, I'm findin' you the fastest way out. Got a problem with that?

• Batman : [trying to contact Bruce]  Can you hear me? I'm down in the shelters under the subway. Can you hear me?

  DAK : Talking to yourself?

  Batman : It's a radio.

  DAK : Might as well be talking to yourself. Radios don't work down here. Any idiot knows that.

• Batman : You want me out of here pretty bad, don't you?

  DAK : This is my place. Nobody tells me what to do here; no parents, no teachers, and definitely not you.

  Batman : Runaway, huh?

  DAK : How'd you guess?

• Shriek : Batman, I know you're down here somewhere. This is your old pal Shriek. I've got your little friend with me here in the main shelter, and I want you to... well, you know the rest, don't you? Better hurry, Batman. Better hurry.

  DAK : Idiot. Nobody sacrifices their life for somebody else, not in this world.

  Shriek : You don't know Batman.

  DAK : I know people.

  Shriek : Perhaps you'd like to bet on it. Your life, say?

  DAK : Too easy. Even if he wanted to give himself up to you, he couldn't.

  Shriek : And why's that?

  DAK : He's trapped in...

  Shriek : You know right where he is, don't you? Tell me. Tell me!

  DAK : Maybe I don't owe Batman anything, but I sure don't owe you anything, either.

  Shriek : Wrong. You're about to owe me your life, but only if you take me to him.

• DAK : [leading Shriek to Batman]  There. He's right behind that wall.

  Shriek : How could you possibly...

  DAK : I know these tunnels like the back of my hand.

  [Shriek turns a dial on his gauntlet and sends sonic vibrations at the wall; he and Ollie scream as they're washed away by a wave of water] 

• DAK : Back at school, half the kids want to be you.

  Batman : Yeah?

  DAK : I was in the other half.

  Batman : Who do you want to be?

  DAK : Maybe Blight or Spellbinder. Or somebody in the Royal Flush Gang.

  Batman : Are you serious?

  DAK : Hey, they did what they wanted and wouldn't let anyone tell 'em what to do.

  Batman : But look how they ended up.

  DAK : Yeah, thanks to you. And I'm gonna end up that way, too, now, thanks to you.

• DAK : What are you doin'?

  Batman : [tapping a wall]  Looking for a weak spot.

  DAK : Then what, genius?

  Batman : I got explosives, lots of 'em.

  [wiping his finger on the wall] 

  Batman : What's with this condensation? Must be something cold on the other side.

  DAK : Ever hear of the Gotham River? Runs all around here underground. If you break through, we'll be dead real quick, instead of real slow, which is what's gonna happen now.
