Quotes 

• Barbara Gordon : So Dad's got me registering items they found in Lynn's apartment. And guess what, there's an invoice to an address on the east side of town.

  Bruce Wayne : Interesting. What are you doing tonight?

  Barbara Gordon : [Imitating The Brain]  The same thing we do every night, Pinky.

  Bruce Wayne : ...What?

  Barbara Gordon : Never mind.

• Batgirl : [saving Cassidy]  Hi, I'm a big fan.

  Bruce Wayne : [watching from below]  Good girl.

  [Batgirl drops off Cassidy. Bruce comes over to speak with her] 

  Bruce Wayne : Lucky you were here.

  Batgirl : Sometimes it pays to get the cheap seats.

  [swings away] 

• Shannon : Come on, slowpoke. We don't want to be late.

  Bruce Wayne : What's the big deal? Who is this Cassidy, anyway?

  Shannon : Only the hottest singer in the world, Bruce. What cave have you been hiding in? Everyone who's anyone will be here.

• Batgirl : Three muggers, two armed robberies, it's been a quiet evening.

  [a sudden explosion draws their attention] 

  Batman : The night's still young.

• Barbara Gordon : I didn't know you were into Cassidy.

  Bruce Wayne : Shannon thought I should see what the buzz is about firsthand.

  Shannon : And from the front row.

• Batman : Let her go.

  Firefly : I burned you once, Batman. I can do it again!

• Batman : Why is Firefly after you?

  Cassidy : Well, you're not one for small talk, are ya? I guess he's sort of carrying a torch for me. We dated for a while. A couple of dinners, a concert, you know, that sort of thing. He just didn't know when it was over.

  Batman : Still doesn't.

  Cassidy : Well, that's why you gotta protect me. You're the only one who can. I'll make it worth your while.

  Batman : I'm not for hire.

  Cassidy : Sorry. It's just that I'm so scared. I hate the idea of being all alone.

  [seeing he's gone] 

  Cassidy : Creep.

• Batman : I've gotta find Firefly before he strikes again.

  Alfred Pennyworth : I'm afraid you're a tad late.

  [turning on a TV] 

  Alfred Pennyworth : It's been all over the news.

  Frank : [getting hounded by reporters]  No, no. We haven't heard anything since the abduction. We have no idea where she is.

  Batman : [glancing at the matchbook from Lynns' hideout]  But I might.

  Alfred Pennyworth : [clearing his throat as Batman heads to the Batmobile]  Forgive me for being so forward, sir, but do you really want to go out in public like that? I was thinking of something a bit more... durable.

• Batgirl : Flash caps, napalm, accelerants. This guy's a serious firebug. Let's see what other dirty little secrets he's hiding.

  Batman : [seeing the switch she reaches for is rigged]  No!
