Quotes
-
Volcana : Donny, I can give you a really good price. I have to get out of town.
Donny : Look, Volcana, honey, I'd love to help you, but I can't move that kind of stuff. Don't you have anything else?
Volcana : [picking up a copy of the Daily Planet] I might.
Donny : Yeah? When?
Volcana : Tuesday. Meet me at the usual place. You won't be sorry.
[hanging up, Donny gasps as three agents approach him]
Kurt : Where exactly is "the usual place"?
-
Kurt : No escape, Volcana. The tank is filled with an inert gas. The breathing mask is your only source of oxygen. Not enough for you to start a fire. And should you try...
[he presses a button on his glove, and she begins to choke from the lack of oxygen]
Kurt : I wouldn't give us any trouble. Understood?
Volcana : Okay, you win. Who do you want me to kill?
Kurt : My dear, you can't believe we'd trust you with another assignment. However, it did cost us a lot of money to develop your talents, and we'd like to get some of it back.
Volcana : How?
Kurt : A foreign government doing metagenetic experiments wants to study you.
Volcana : You mean dissect me.
Kurt : Probably. When they're done playing.
-
Kurt : Superman. Just in time.
Superman : [his agents cock their weapons] Really?
Kurt : You can see we've shut down Volcana. As you know, she's a real loose cannon.
Superman : You're the loose cannon. You and your entire operation. Your friends told me Project Firestorm's funding was cut off years ago. This isn't the government. It's just you.

Volcana : I guess I always knew you'd catch up to me, Kurt. Now leave, before I make it even hotter for you.
Kurt : You've been bad, Volcana.
Volcana : You've been worse. And now that we've recapped the past two years...
Kurt : You shouldn't have left us.
Volcana : I don't like being used.
Kurt : All for a good cause.
Volcana : I'll be the judge of that. And if you're thinking you can make me go back, forget it.
Kurt : Now, that's where you're wrong.
[agents burst in and cover her in fire-retardant foam]
Kurt : You see, we've had two years to think about... how to do it.
