- Matt Hagan: You know what I'd have given for a death scene like this. Too bad I won't get to read the notices.
- Fat Woman: I'd like to ask Mr. Daggett about the rumors I've heard. I hear he's selling Renuyu through direct marketing because stores won't carry it due to it's harmful side effects.
- Roland Daggett: Well, that's, uh, absolutely untrue.
- Fat Woman: What about the addictive properties of Renuyu, Mr. Daggett? Once you're hooked, you can't stop using it without horrible pain.
- Roland Daggett: No! I mean... That's just not so!
- Fat Woman: Why don't you show them what an overdose can do, Daggett?
- [in Clayface's voice]
- Clayface: Why don't you tell them about me?
- [transforms into Clayface]
- Germs: My contact on the force says Bell hasn't cracked, so far.
- Roland Daggett: Good. But I'm afraid we still have quite a mess to clean up. Sooner or later, I will take control of Wayne Enterprises. Their marketing operation will instantly give me a distribution network it would take me years to build on my own. 'Til then, my takeover plan will have to be... revised, now that our actor friend Hagen is no longer available to us.
- Germs: Okay, Mr. Daggett, who do you want me to take out now?
- Roland Daggett: I want everything wrapped up by the time I tape that show tonight. We're going to settle the Fox matter once and for all.
- Germs: But... but, Mr. Daggett, he's in a hospital. All those sick people...
- [Daggett glares at him]
- Germs: Okay, Mr. Daggett.
- Clayface: The formula must have soaked every cell in my body.
- Teddy Lupus: It's... It's some kind of miracle.
- [changes back to Clayface]
- Teddy Lupus: Wha... What are you doing?
- Clayface: No. No! You broke my concentration. It won't work. Don't you see? It's too hard. It's like tensing a muscle. I can't keep it up for long! MY CAREER, MY LIFE, IT IS GONE! AND I CAN NEVER GET IT BACK! I'M NOT AN ACTOR ANYMORE! I'm not even a... man.
- [chasing Germs through the hospital, Batman corners him in a storage closet filled with specimen jars]
- Germs: Let me out of here, please! All these viruses and bacteria! I could be... infected!
- Batman: I know.
- [he advances]
- Batman: Now... the man who impersonated Bruce Wayne, I want his name.
- Germs: I... I don't know who...
- [Batman takes a jar off the shelf and reads the label]
- Batman: Crimson fever. Lousy way to go. No cure, you know.
- [He puts the jar on a shelf above Germs's head]
- Batman: The name, *now*!
- Germs: Okay, okay! It was Hagen! Matt Hagen, the movie actor.
- [Batman punches the wall, causing the jar to teeter on the shelf]
- Germs: [cringing] It's the truth, I swear!
- Batman: Then how did he fool Fox? He's good, but no actor, no makeup, is that good.
- Germs: I... I don't know!
- [Batman punches the wall again. The jar teeters closer to the edge]
- Germs: You're crazy!
- Batman: [cracks his knuckles] Last chance: talk!
- Germs: Alright! He... had something... something nobody else had. He could...
- [the light is turned on, and a cop enters]
- Clayface: Nice going Batman! But I'll take it from here.
- [as he enters, the jar tips off the shelf and falls. Germs screams, and Batman catches the jar, revealing the label: "Seawater for Analysis"]
- Clayface: [as Clayface has Batman cornered, Batman flips a switch, turning on multiple TV screens displaying past roles Hagen has played] What are you doing? Stop it!
- Batman: Look at them, Hagen. Look at what you used to be.
- Clayface: No. No. Turn them off!
- Batman: You can play those roles again, Hagen. Let me help you find a cure.
- Clayface: No! Hagen's gone. Make him stop haunting me!
- Bruce Wayne: Imagine, Lucius Fox thinking I would harm him.
- Alfred Pennyworth: And he's been with you, what, ten years now, sir? Then whoever impersonated you did an uncanny job.
- Batman: [changing in the back seat] Whoever is right. Bell said he didn't know. He had to be lying. But I know where to get the truth.
- Clayface: Pull in here.
- Teddy Lupus: The hospital?
- Clayface: Sooner or later, Daggett will send someone to finish off Fox. Once I know who it is, I can take his place. And if Daggett thinks I'm his henchman, I can walk right up to him and bam!
- [transforming into a medical orderly]
- Clayface: Goodbye, Mr. Daggett.
- Clayface: Move it, Lupus. I want all this stuff out of here by sunrise.
- Teddy Lupus: Ah, Matt, come on. You don't have to do this. You made a comeback before, you can do it again.
- Clayface: Comeback? Comeback? From this! Face it, Teddy. Matt Hagen is history. This time for good. He's never coming back again.
- Clayface: Not even the Batman could stop me, Teddy, and that means Daggett won't have a prayer.
- Teddy Lupus: Matt... please. Y-y-you don't wanna do anything crazy. Why don't you try to get some shut eye?
- Clayface: DON'T YOU DARE PATRONIZE ME! I told you I don't need rest. I don't need food and I DON'T NEED YOU!
- [as a mortician looks at Clayface's body]
- Batman: [voice over] I wouldn't be surprised if the body they took to the morgue was only a shell.
- [Clayface's body crumbles to dust]
- Batman: [voice over] Don't forget, first and foremost, Hagen was an actor. He said it himself, Alfred. He called it a scene. Maybe the greatest scene of his career.
- [cuts to Teddy Lupus standing outside the morgue]
- Teddy Lupus: [voice breaking] See ya 'round, Matt.
- [walks away]
- Batman: [voice over] A death scene so real, it fooled us all.
- [a woman passing by starts laughing, slowly revealing herself to be Clayface]
- Clayface: [Clayface is morphing uncontrollably] Stop it! Stop it! Turn them off! I can't control it! I can't be all of them! Not all at once!
