[first lines]
[On a stakeout]
Robin : If I knew it was gonna be this long, I would have brought my homework. You sure about this extortion ring?
Batman : Uh-huh.
Robin : It's been four hours.
Batman : Uh-huh.
Robin : You still think they'll show?
Batman : Uh-huh.
[pause]
Robin : Lucky for me you're such a good conversationalist.
-
Bruce Wayne : I know it must be very difficult.
Dick Grayson : If only I could have stopped him! I saw him coming out of the tent! I knew he didn't belong there!
Bruce Wayne : I know. You keep thinking, If only I had done something differently. If only I could have... warned them. But there isn't anything you could have done. There isn't anything either of us could have done.
Dick Grayson : Your mom and dad? Does the hurt ever go away?
Bruce Wayne : I wish I could say yes. But it will get better in time. For you. That I promise.
-
Robin : Why can't I go with you? What's the big deal?
Batman : I'm working alone tonight.
Robin : Come on. I don't get to do this much since I started college. If it's because I jumped the gun back there, I'm sorry.
Batman : It's something I have to do, *alone*.
Robin : So that's it. No apologies, no explanation. Just "See you later, kid."
Batman : You know the rules. There are times I can't explain...
Robin : "My actions even to you." Hey, that line worked great in sixth grade but in case you hadn't noticed...
Batman : We'll discuss this later!

[last lines]
Robin : You deceived me! You can't take this one! Zucco's mine!
Batman : Sorry, Robin, but on this team I call the shots.
Robin : But I've waited half my life!
Batman : Batman out.
Robin : Oh, no. He's not gonna ace me out!
Alfred Pennyworth : Please, Master Dick, you must do as he says!
Robin : Not this time, Alfred. Maybe not ever again.
-
Dick Grayson : I'll never be like him, Alfred, never. He's a stone-cold, self-righteous...
Alfred Pennyworth : Master Dick, try not to be too critical. I'm certain whatever his reasons, Master Bruce has your best interests in mind.
Dick Grayson : He shuts me out, man, treats me like a kid!
-
Robin : You ever hear of a crook named Billy Marin, Alfred?
Alfred Pennyworth : Hmm. Can't say that I have, but I'm not one to peruse post office walls.
Robin : I think Batman has.
[Robin accesses the criminal files on the Batcomputer]
Robin : There. Billy Marin alias Simon Dirks, Sid the Squid, Killer Coburn, Punky Lesh... But who is he really?
[the Batcomputer puts up a file on the real crook]
Robin : Tony Zucco?
Alfred Pennyworth : Oh, my word!
Robin : Finally.

Batman : [to Dolan who was hanging on to a iron girder] Now who's behind this little enterprise?
Dolan : I ain't saying nothing until I see my lawyer!
Batman : Suit yourself. Let's go.
[Batman and Robin start to walk away]
Dolan : Wait! Wait! You gotta help me! The cops wouldn't leave me!
Batman : We're not the police. You want help? I want a name! Who's your boss?
Dolan : I can't! I can't say nothing! He'll tear me apart!
Robin : Oh. Then you've got a problem.
[Batman and Robin start to walk away again]
Dolan : [screams] Hey, come on! For pity sakes!
[starts to lose his grip on the girder]
Dolan : [screams] It's marin! Billy marin!
[Batman and Robin stop walking]
Batman : Marin.
[Robin throws a bola at Dolan who falls from the girder. As Dolan falls, Robin's bola wraps around his legs and Robin hangs him upside down]
Robin : [grabs Dolan by his shirt] And where do we find Mr. Marin?
Dolan : [stammering] I don't... Look, I can't...
Robin : Spill it!
Batman : [puts a hand on Robin's shoulder] Forget it, Robin.
Robin : What?
Batman : I said forget it.
Robin : But this guy's ready to sing.
Batman : Let it go. The police can take it from here. Go get the Batmobile.
Robin : But...
Batman : [sternly] Now!
[Robin sulkily walks away, leaving Dolan swinging]
Dolan : Hey!
[he yells as he swings, Batman grabs him by his shirt]
Batman : All right, scumbucket. It's you, me and 30 stories. You're gonna tell me exactly what I want to know.
