• [Penguin says goodbye to Leslie Thompkins and Jim Gordon] 

  Oswald Cobblepot : [shakes Gordon's hand]  Good luck, old friend. See you around.

  James Gordon : I hope not. Goodbye, Penguin.

  Dr. Leslie Thompkins : Have I got you all wrong? Are you just crazy?

  James Gordon : What he said.

  Lucius Fox : As you like.

  Oswald Cobblepot : This is for my mother.

  [Penguin brutally beats Galavan with a baseball bat]
