• The Joker : [when Batman picks up the phone in Andrea's apartment]  Hello, anybody home? Listen, boopsie, even though you never call and never write, I still got a soft spot for you. So I'm sending you a fun gift, airmail! And there's no use jumping out the window this time, toots...

  [Batman looks out the window and sees a toy Joker plane flying in carrying a bomb] 

  The Joker : The plane of the future is going to make you history!

  [Batman throws a Batarang, exploding the bomb outside the window; the blast knocks him back against the wall, and the phone is left dangling] 

  The Joker : [laughing]  Hello? Hello, operator? I believe my party's been... disconnected! HA-HA-HA-HA-HAAAAA!

• Joker : So, what's an old-timer like you want with a two-timer like me?

• Joker : I'm impressed, lady. You're harder to kill than a cockroach on steroids.

  The Phantasm : So, you figured it out.

  [the Phantasm removes his mask to reveal Andrea Beaumont] 

  Joker : Gotta hand it to you, nice scheme. Costume's a bit theatrical, but hey, who am I to talk?

• [Andrea Beaumont has just called Arthur's office] 

  Joker : Now ain't that a co-inky-dink?

  [grabs Arthur by his shirt] 

  Joker : Here we are discussing the old man when the spawn of his loins just happens to call! Makes you want to laugh, doesn't it, Artie?

  [he laughs maniacally] 

• Joker : Mi casa nostra es su casa nostra.

• Joker : Don't touch me, old man! I don't know where you've been.

• [Sal walks through the remains of the "Future of Gotham" park as the robots sing; then the Joker enters] 

  Joker : I hate that song... Gasp! Can it be? Old Sally "the Wheezer" Valestra! Welcome, paisan! It's been a dog's age!

  Salvatore "Sal The Wheezer" Valestra : [nervously]  Hello, Joker. Didn't mean to drop by unannounced.

• [the Phantasm goes to Valestra's mansion, but instead finds Valestra already dead, along with Joker's surveillance camera and a bomb] 

  Joker : Whoops! Ha! I guess the joke's on me. You're not Batman after all. Looks like there's a new face in Gotham and soon his name will be all over town... to say nothing of his legs, and feet, and spleen, and head...

  [the Phantasm leaps out the window just as the bomb explodes] 

• Joker : Can't be too careful with all those weirdos around.

• The Joker : All right, I give in. I surrendered already. Tell her, Batman.

  Batman : [Panting]  Andrea, you've got to... get out of here! The whole place is set to... explode!

  Andrea Beaumont : No. One way or another it ends tonight. Goodbye, my love.

• Andrea Beaumont : You're not smiling, Joker. I thought you found death amusing.

  The Joker : Oh, me? You won't hear a giggle out of me.

  [Joker presses a button. Hazel the Robot laughs maniacally and attacks with a cleaver] 

• The Joker : Ain't it always the way? You get in the mood and company shows up.

• The Joker : For once, I'm stuck without a punchline.

• Joker : You're crazy! I'm your only chance to get out of here! Let me go or we'll both die!

  Batman : Whatever it takes!

• The Joker : That's it. That's what I want to see, a nice big smile.

• The Joker : What a photo op: The city councilman and his wacky pal!

• Joker : Tsk, tsk. And to think those tax money would pay these jerks.

  Arthur Reeves : You!

  Joker : That's right, Artie. Bring in the press, why don't you? What a photo op! The councilman and his wacky pal.

  Arthur Reeves : You're no friend of mine.

  Joker : Oh, Artie, I'm crushed! How and ho the mighty forget. Don't you remember? You, me, Sally and the gang?

  Arthur Reeves : What are you talking about? I never met them or you. I work for Beaumont. I didn't know what he was doing.

  Joker : But you knew it afterwards and put it to good use, eh?

  Arthur Reeves : What do you want?

  Joker : To find out who's iced the old gang.

  Arthur Reeves : Haven't you read the papers? It's Batman.

  Joker : [pressing his joy buzzer]  Wrong. It ain't the bat. Nope, nope, nope. I've seen the guy. He looks more like the Ghost of Christmas Future. Nowhere near as cute as Batboy.

  Arthur Reeves : You're saying it was someone else?

  Joker : Yeah, someone wouldn't mind seeing our old pals out of the way.

• The Joker : Very cute! But I can blow smoke too, toots!

• Joker : You just don't know when to quit, do you?

• The Joker : You're too late, Batman. There are 20 miles of tunnels under this place, and they're all filled with high explosives. In five minutes, everything goes up.

• The Joker : Come, have a seat, Sal. Tell me what's on your so-called mind.

  Salvatore Valestra : It's Batman. He's gone nuts. First he whacked Chuckie Sol, then Buzz, and now he's after me.

  The Joker : You know, I've been reading lately how old guano-man is wound tight enough to snap. Ooh, wouldn't it be great if I've finally driven him off the deep end?

  Salvatore Valestra : This isn't a joke! Batman's knocking us off, and you're the only one who can take him down.

  [opening a briefcase] 

  Salvatore Valestra : Look, 5 million up front, with whatever you want to finish him off.

  The Joker : [yawning in bordeom]  What do I look like, pest control?

  Salvatore Valestra : Think, you fool! Once he gets me, how long 'til he gets you? You know what I'm talking about. Your hands are just as dirty. Dirtier!

• The Joker : What? Meat loaf again? Oh, I had it for lunch. Isn't Hazel here a cutie? True, she's a real homebody, but you can't help who you fall in love with.
