- [Fish Mooney tries to get the attention of Ms. Peabody]
- Ethel Peabody: Busy day, busy day. We'll get to you, Number 13.
- Fish Mooney: Your mama may be number 13, but I'm a human being. Fish Mooney, bitch.
- Ethel Peabody: [Peabody walks up to Fish Mooney's cell] Here you're Re-Animant Test Case Number 13, and I'm Ms. Peabody. And you'd best not talk about my mama.
- [first lines]
- Strike Force Lieutenant: [the GCPD arrive at Arkham Asylum ready to raid the building in search of Jim Gordon] No sign of Gordon. How long do you want us to wait?
- Harvey Bullock: Give him ten seconds. If you don't see Jim, bust that joint open and find him.
- Strike Force Lieutenant: Ready, entry team. We go on one!
- [Barbara Kean talks to the Basil Gordon look-alike at the GCPD]
- Barbara Kean: Question: What the hell is going on down at Arkham?
- James Gordon: [Basil smiles] Two questions back at you, gorgeous. Why you asking, and, uh, what's in it for me?
- Barbara Kean: I'm asking because a dear friend of mine wants to know the answer, and what would you like to be in it for you?
- James Gordon: [Basil continues to smile] Hey, spring is here, baby.
- [Barbara Kean exposes the identity of the Basil Gordon look-alike]
- Barbara Kean: So, now you like me again?
- James Gordon: [Basil smiles] What's not to like?
- Barbara Kean: So, you've forgotten about Lee?
- James Gordon: Lee?
- James Gordon: [Basil hesitates before smiling] Lee Thompkins. Naw, screw that ho. Water under the bridge.
- Barbara Kean: You're not Jim.
- James Gordon: Say what now?
- Barbara Kean: You're not Jim!
- James Gordon: Whoa, whoa, whoa, hold on there, woman.
- [Barbara punches Basil in the face]
- [the Basil Gordon look-alike returns back to the GCPD and speaks with Harvey Bullock]
- Harvey Bullock: You feeling all right? You look like a sack of fish.
- James Gordon: A little flu, maybe.
- Harvey Bullock: Oh. Well, then keep your distance. I'm getting laid this weekend, fingers crossed.
- [Basil gives a big smile]
- [Hugo Strange tells Jim Gordon to love while under the truth serum]
- James Gordon: What you said about Lee. I should have gone after her?
- Hugo Strange: Oh, no doubt. Guilt has compelled you to sacrifice your heart to your conscience. But guilt is useless. Love, Jim. Love is our guide.
- [Jim Gordon, Lucius Fox, and Bruce Wayne wake up together in Arkham Asylum]
- Lucius Fox: Are we alive?
- James Gordon: So far so good.
- Lucius Fox: Had to be sure, I thought we were dead.
- [Jim Gordon tries to apologize to Bruce Wayne while still under the truth serum]
- James Gordon: [Gordon grabs Bruce's hand] Bruce... I never should have made that oath to you.
- Bruce Wayne: That's not really...
- James Gordon: I was arrogant and naïve... and I'm sorry. I've tried to do the right thing, but... what a fool I've been.
- Lucius Fox: Uh... what kind of drugs did they give you?
- [Edward Nygma asks Hugo Strange who does run Wayne Enterprises]
- Hugo Strange: Well done, Ed. I'm impressed. You are a shaman of sorts. A witch doctor.
- Edward Nygma: So, just between us... who does run Wayne Enterprises?
- Hugo Strange: I could tell you, but then... I would have to lobotomize you.
- [Hugo Strange tells Edward Nygma that he'd be very useful on his staff for if he wasn't insane]
- Hugo Strange: You would be a wonderful addition to my staff, Ed, a wonderful addition, if you were only sane.
- Edward Nygma: No, seriously...
- Hugo Strange: Yes, seriously. You have been very useful, and we arrogant physicians have much to learn from a madman like you.
- Hugo Strange: [when Nygma's cell door opens] But not that much.
- [Bruce Wayne tries to apologize to Selina Kyle for getting her involved with Arkham Asylum]
- Bruce Wayne: I led you into this mess, I was self-righteous, and arrogant and manipulative. I used you, and I'm sorry.
- Selina Kyle: Like you can use me. I got you wrapped around my pinky.
- Selina Kyle: [Bruce gets silent] Always have.
- Bruce Wayne: Be that as it may... if you can escape, do it.
- Selina Kyle: [Selina scoffs] Manipulative. As if.
- [Fish Mooney confronts Hugo Strange after escaping out of her cell]
- Hugo Strange: Oh, no, Miss Mooney, if you and the others on that bus were to appear in public, it would cause a revolution, an apocalypse. I simply can't allow you to just walk out of here.
- Fish Mooney: Watch me.
- Hugo Strange: Oh, please, don't go. Please, you're breaking my heart. I love you like my own daughter. No one could love you more, but I will have to kill you before I let you go. Please, choose life.
- Fish Mooney: You would have made a great pimp.
- [Alfred Pennyworth tells the Basil Gordon look-alike that he's weird]
- Alfred Pennyworth: I don't know who's got to you, Gordon, but you're just, just... weird.
- [Jim Gordon and Lucius Fox make their way to Arkham's basement to defuse the bomb]
- James Gordon: Are you any good at defusing bombs?
- Lucius Fox: I don't know yet. You?
- James Gordon: Meh.
- [Jim Gordon and Lucius Fox guess how to deactivate the bomb]
- James Gordon: [Gordon holds the control switch] How about we just, uh, pull all this stuff off. See what happens.
- Lucius Fox: There's no cutoff program, maybe, maybe there's no tamper-proofing program.
- James Gordon: Yeah.
- Lucius Fox: Yeah.
- [Penguin sees Fish Mooney alive and back from the dead]
- Oswald Cobblepot: [Fish blows at Penguin's ear from behind, as he turns around] Impossible.
- Fish Mooney: Nothing... is impossible.
- [as Penguin faints to the ground]
- [Alfred Pennyworth tells Bruce Wayne that he hopes he's learned his lesson]
- Alfred Pennyworth: Well, I hope you learned your lesson, Master Bruce. And that's the end of your adventures with the police, eh?
- Bruce Wayne: There's a secret council, Alfred. A secret council that runs everything in Gotham.
- Alfred Pennyworth: [Alfred grumbles] Oh, bloody hell.
- Bruce Wayne: It's them that wanted me dead. We're so close, Alfred, we're so close to the ultimate truth.
- Alfred Pennyworth: [Alfred looks to Selina] Oh, bloody hell.
- Selina Kyle: [Selina chuckles] Hey, don't look at me.
- [Jim Gordon tells Harvey Bullock that he's the boss of Gotham now]
- James Gordon: And Harvey.
- Harvey Bullock: Yeah?
- James Gordon: You're the boss now. Maybe get a haircut?
- Harvey Bullock: [as Gordon gets in the car and drives off] That's my car. That's - That's my car! Hey! Jim!
- Hugo Strange: [having drugged Gordon] Jim, I need you to relax. Close your eyes. Imagine that I am God. All-powerful. I am God, and I absolve you of all of your guilt. I put that guilt on you, and now I take it away. It's gone. Your burdens are gone.
- Hugo Strange: Miss Mooney, you have special talents. Some form of psychotropic chemical agent on your skin, I imagine. You're marvelous. Yes, truly marvelous.
- Fish Mooney: Always was.
- Hugo Strange: Indeed.
- Hugo Strange: We have to go! We have to leave now!
- James Gordon: Tell me how to get that bomb and shut it off or I'll batter you to death right here!
- Hugo Strange: In which case, young man, I suppose I will just have to die.
- James Gordon: I have to go. I might not see you for a while, but I'll try to stay in touch.
- Bruce Wayne: Where are you going?
- James Gordon: I have to find Lee.
- Alfred Pennyworth: Right move, mate.
- James Gordon: [to Bruce] Do me a favor. Say good-bye to Bullock for me. I don't really want the whole Celtic farewell. He's gonna have his hands full, but I think he can handle it.
- Bruce Wayne: Will do.
- Selina Kyle: [standing near by] Chocolates. Girls like chocolates.
- James Gordon: I'll keep that in mind.
- Alfred Pennyworth: Well, there's a man who's got his priorities straight. The love of a good woman and all that. Well, I hope you learned your lesson, Master Bruce.
- [last lines]
- Old Lady Hobo: [the Old Lady Hobo walks up to the crashed bus full of monsters] Oh, those poor souls. Hell - Hello? Hello?
- [as the Old Lady Hobo opens the lock on the back door, when a line of Strange's experiments stroll out snarling, laughing, and moaning]
- Bruce Wayne: [when a figure who looks like Bruce Wayne tells the Old Lady Hobo] Thank you.
