- Robin: [climbing a building with their Bat-ropes] It's sure a shame, Batman. A restaurant with such terrific chow turning out to be a mere front for some criminal scheme.
- Batman: Look at it this way, Robin: that hundred dollar cover charge is pretty stiff. Penguin's terrific chow is hardly within the budget of the average worker.
- Robin: Gosh, yes, you're right Batman. All the needy people in the world. The hungry children...
- Batman: Good thinking, Robin.
- Commissioner Gordon: You make something of this enigma, Batman?
- Batman: It sticks out like Penguin's nose. For some sinister reason that pompous bird wants to be arrested.
- Commissioner Gordon: Good heavens!
- Chief O'Hara: But why?
- Batman: [Chief O'Hara grabs The Penguin with intent of arresting him] No, Chief, no.
- Chief O'Hara: What?
- Batman: He was merely baiting us. Don't swallow.
- Robin: Have a heart, Chief, Penguin didn't mean any harm.
- Commissioner Gordon: [almost illegible with a face full of custard pie] Didn't mean any harm?
- Chief O'Hara: Hittin' a Police Commissioner in the puss with a pie?
