Quotes 

• [Silver St. Cloud is alone with Bruce Wayne in the cell] 

  Silver St. Cloud : You're so calm. It's like you're not scared.

  Bruce Wayne : I guess I'm not. It's weird.

  Silver St. Cloud : You... are weird. But I love you.

  Bruce Wayne : Do you?

  Silver St. Cloud : I do.

• [Silver St. Cloud is alone with Bruce Wayne in the cell] 

  Silver St. Cloud : Do you love me?

  Bruce Wayne : No.

  Silver St. Cloud : [tears up]  No?

  Bruce Wayne : Silver, I don't know why you're doing it, but I know you're playing me. I know that whole escape was a ghoulish charade.

  Silver St. Cloud : That's a horrible lie.

  Bruce Wayne : I'm only telling you this because, when I'm dead, you may feel bad, and I don't want you to think you tricked me. Silver, I don't love you. I pity you.

  [Silver has tears rolling down her face] 

  Bruce Wayne : Why do you do this? What's the point?

  Silver St. Cloud : Uncle Theo made me. He said if I can't make you love me again, if you don't kiss me goodbye, then I'm not good enough for the family. He's going to kick me out. Or kill me. Same thing really.

  Bruce Wayne : I see.

  Silver St. Cloud : God, I'm such a loser. An evil, pathetic loser.

  Bruce Wayne : You're not. You're young and scared and under the control of bad people. You can change. There's hope.

  Silver St. Cloud : You can't even imagine the things I've done. There's no hope. There's no going back to normal life. My family is all I have. Now I've lost them, too.

• [Silver St. Cloud is alone with Bruce in the cell] 

  Silver St. Cloud : What's your favorite animal?

  Bruce Wayne : Owls.

  Silver St. Cloud : Owls. Owls, okay. Owls are cool. Did you ever swim with a dolphin?

  Bruce Wayne : No.

  Silver St. Cloud : I did once. Oh, my gosh. It was magical. It was... like we were friends, like... they have this power. They can, like, read your mind.

  Bruce Wayne : No, they can't.

  Silver St. Cloud : No, they can. They can see your brain waves.

  Bruce Wayne : They have a form of sonar, that can see inside you to detect tumors, that sort of thing. But they can't read minds.

  Silver St. Cloud : Well, the one I met could read my mind.

  [Bruce smiles] 

• [Silver St. Cloud is alone with Bruce Wayne in the cell] 

  Silver St. Cloud : Stop acting like you're not scared. I know you are.

  Bruce Wayne : Sure. Maybe a little but... mostly, I feel very alive. Happy, even. I'm going to see my parents.

  Silver St. Cloud : [footsteps approach the cell]  Hold that thought.

• [Silver St. Cloud asks Bruce Wayne what his favorite memory is while alone with him in the cell] 

  Bruce Wayne : [Bruce quietly whispers]  We went camping once, in a forest. My father and I climbed an oak tree and ate oranges. We could hear my mom singing to herself as she built a fire. That was a good day.

  Silver St. Cloud : [Silver begins to cry]  Damn it... Damn it. I can't do this. I can't let you die.

• Theo Galavan : I'm going to give you a test.

  Silver St. Cloud : Anything.

  Theo Galavan : Make Bruce Wayne fall in love with you all over again. I want to see him kiss you before he dies.

  Silver St. Cloud : But he knows. He knows what I am now. He hates me.

  Theo Galavan : Well, that's what makes it a test. If you're guileful enough to win back his heart and cruel enough to smile at his killing, then I'll know you're worthy of the family name.

• Bruce Wayne : So your parents really are dead, are they?

  Silver St. Cloud : Yeah. I wasn't lying about that.

  Bruce Wayne : I'm sorry.

  Silver St. Cloud : Hey that's show business.
