- [Harvey Bullock asks Jim Gordon what happens when there's no more Indian Hill escapees to arrest]
- Harvey Bullock: How many escapees you brought in now? Hmm? Six? Five grand a pop? That's not too bad. What happens when there aren't any more?
- James Gordon: I don't think Gotham's running out of monsters anytime soon.
- [Jim Gordon tells Harvey Bullock that saving Gotham's not his job anymore]
- Harvey Bullock: You are a cop in everything but name.
- James Gordon: Yeah, except I don't have to listen to Barnes. I get to go home when I want, get drunk when I want. And at the end of the day, I sleep. 'Cause saving Gotham's not my job anymore.
- Harvey Bullock: Jim, I love you like a brother, but you've got to stop blaming the job for what happened between you and Lee. And do you really think I don't get drunk when I want?
- [Bullock takes a drink out of his flask]
- [Butch Gilzean sees Tabitha Galavan for the first time in months]
- Tabitha Galavan: Hey, Butch.
- Butch Gilzean: Hey, h-h-how you doing?
- Tabitha Galavan: You taking care of yourself?
- Butch Gilzean: Y-Yeah, yeah. So, uh, so how you doing?
- Oswald Cobblepot: [Penguin scoffs] You already asked her that.
- [Selina Kyle talks to Butch Gilzean at the bar]
- Selina Kyle: You okay, Butch? World getting you down?
- Butch Gilzean: [Butch sighs over Tabitha] Yeah, I'm fine, kid. And you're too young to be in here. Scram.
- Selina Kyle: Jeesh. Just trying to be nice.
- Butch Gilzean: [Selina leaves as Penguin walks up to Butch] Just seeing her kills me, you know?
- Oswald Cobblepot: [Penguin hangs his head] Get over it. And that child just stole your wallet.
- [Selina Kyle hands over a wallet to a homeless kid]
- Ivy Pepper: Keep feeding strays, one's gonna follow you home.
- Selina Kyle: Like you?
- [Penguin visits Edward Nygma at Arkham Asylum with a present]
- Oswald Cobblepot: [Penguin smiles] It's a puzzle. The trick is opening it.
- Oswald Cobblepot: [as Nygma starts working on the puzzle box] The man at the store said it's one of the most difficult ever made. People pass it down unsolved for generations. A mathematician once went mad trying...
- Oswald Cobblepot: [Penguins scoffs when Nygma opens the box] Yes.
- Oswald Cobblepot: [Penguin laughs] Well, there you go.
- Edward Nygma: It was a lovely thought.
- [first lines]
- Pharmacist: [a Ridgeback monster invades a closed pharmacy store] Hello? We're closed. If you leave now, I won't call the cops.
- James Gordon: [the snarling monster throws the pharmacist out the front window as Jim Gordon stands outside] Hey. Any chance you want to come quietly?
- [Jim Gordon and Harvey Bullock listen to Mayor Aubrey James' speech to the media]
- Harvey Bullock: Hear that? You should be lauded.
- James Gordon: [Gordon smiles] I'll settle for the cash.
- [Harvey Bullock tries to ask Jim Gordon to come back to the GCPD]
- Harvey Bullock: Look, whatever happened when you went to see Lee, and you know I don't like to pry...
- James Gordon: [Gordon smiles] Sure you don't.
- Harvey Bullock: That's because you won't tell me anything. The whole point is man's not supposed to be alone. You have a family here.
- James Gordon: Can't do it, Harv.
- [Harvey Bullock uses Lucius Fox as an example of why Gordon should consider returning to the GCPD]
- Harvey Bullock: [Bullock looks to Gordon] See, look at Lucius here. Our new resident expert on all things scientific. He said sayonara to the Wayne Enterprises robots, hmm, and he loves it here.
- Lucius Fox: Wayne Enterprises revealed itself as morally corrupt. Here, despite the primitive facilities, casual violence, fascistic meathead culture...
- Harvey Bullock: Lucius!
- Lucius Fox: I love it.
- [Barbara Kean turns down Penguin's offer for protection]
- Barbara Kean: I imagine you're here about your offer. To let us shelter under your umbrella?
- Oswald Cobblepot: I only want what's best for you.
- Barbara Kean: I appreciate the thought. But... we're big girls. We can handle ourselves. Can't we?
- Tabitha Galavan: [when Tabitha Galavan enters the room] Sure we can.
- [Penguin offers a reward for Fish Mooney to both Barbara Kean and Tabitha Galavan]
- Oswald Cobblepot: [Penguin smiles] Spread the word. I want Fish Mooney. And I will give a million dollars... to whoever can bring her to me. Dead... or alive. Chopped into pieces. I want her.
- [Valerie Vale reads the front page of the Gazette]
- Valerie Vale: 'Search continues for new Arkham Asylum director.' Right. Good luck finding anyone to take that job.
- [Valerie Vale introduces herself to Jim Gordon]
- Valerie Vale: I'm Valerie Vale. Reporter for The Gazette.
- James Gordon: I know who you are.
- Valerie Vale: And you're James Gordon. Son of a respected Gotham D.A. Former war hero. Former white knight cop. Now bounty hunter. You know, someone should do a story on you.
- [Valerie Vale questions Jim Gordon about Indian Hill while sitting at the bar]
- Valerie Vale: You were there that night, at Indian Hill.
- James Gordon: I got nothing to say.
- Valerie Vale: What about the fact that besides Hugo Strange and his assistant, no one else has been arrested? Or that despite everything pointing to Wayne Enterprises, there seems to be zero investigation.
- James Gordon: [Gordon smiles] You're new to Gotham, aren't you?
- Valerie Vale: Okay, this is where you tell me things work differently here? I'm not from Gotham, but my dad's a cop. My brothers are cops. And things work the same everywhere.
- James Gordon: I was going to say it's hard to find a quiet bar in the city. I like coming here. Please don't make me find another.
- [Valerie Vale asks Jim Gordon if the Penguin is telling the truth about Fish Mooney being alive]
- Valerie Vale: Now, do you think Cobblepot's right? That Fish Mooney's organizing the escapees?
- James Gordon: Penguin is a liar and a murderer.
- Valerie Vale: Hmm... but...
- James Gordon: But based on the escapees, and knowing Fish... I hope not.
- Valerie Vale: Well... he's offering a million dollars to whoever brings her in.
- Valerie Vale: [Valerie leaves Jim at the bar] You're welcome.
- [Penguin asks Edward Nygma while at Arkham Asylum if he's got the other presents he made for him]
- Oswald Cobblepot: Did you get the biscuits? A-And the sweater? I-I know how drafty these rooms are.
- [Penguin tells Edward Nygma while at Arkham Asylum why he's being so nice to him]
- Edward Nygma: Why are you being so kind?
- Oswald Cobblepot: [Penguin pauses] Talking to you these past months, I don't know how I would've gotten by otherwise. With Fish out there planning who knows what... Me being surrounded by morons and lunatics.
- Edward Nygma: [Nygma looks over his shoulder] I know the feeling.
- [Edward Nygma reminds Penguin that penguins eat fish]
- Oswald Cobblepot: Why didn't she kill me when she had the chance? I was powerless. She must have a larger goal. I-I need to know what she is doing.
- Edward Nygma: Do you?
- Edward Nygma: [Nygma pauses] When Alexander encountered the Gordian knot, a knot so complex no one had ever been able to untangle it... he just removed his sword and cut it in two. Details can be distracting. Sometimes... a simple solution is best. See, no matter what she is planning, just remember... penguins... eat... fish.
- [Fish Mooney subdues an armed security guard]
- Fish Mooney: Drop the gun.
- Fish Mooney: [the guard drops his gun] Now knock yourself out.
- Selina Kyle: [the guard knocks himself out] That was awesome.
- [Alfred Pennyworth sees Bruce Wayne nervous to talk to the Wayne Board Members]
- Alfred Pennyworth: [Alfred tries breaking the tension] Did you hear them rats last night? Scurrying around in the attic, driving me bloody bonkers. I'm gonna ask you, what's the point of having a caretaker, if they can't take care of nothing, aye?
- [Bruce Wayne informs the Wayne Board Members that there's an unnamed group creating a conspiracy within Wayne Enterprises]
- Bruce Wayne: I know how it sounds. But I now have proof they exist. And I can tell you that they're here. In this room. I want to talk face to face. You have 24 hours to contact me, or the information that I've gathered will be sent to every newspaper and television station in Gotham. Thank you for your time.
- Alfred Pennyworth: [as Bruce and Alfred head out the office] Pancakes?
- Bruce Wayne: [the hungry Bruce smiles] Pancakes.
- [Valerie Vale tells Jim Gordon that she knows where Fish Mooney is]
- Valerie Vale: I know where she's gonna be next.
- James Gordon: Why are you telling me?
- Valerie Vale: You see, I need something from the cops. They're not gonna tell me, but Bullock still trusts you.
- James Gordon: And you want me to lie to him.
- Valerie Vale: A million dollars covers a lot of sins. And obviously, I get to come along. Aw. Don't tell me you have a conscience.
- James Gordon: [Gordon downs his drink] Yeah, all right.
- [Bruce Wayne apologizes to Selina Kyle for leaving the country suddenly]
- Bruce Wayne: I'm sorry I was gone for so long.
- Selina Kyle: Don't apologize. Shoot, if I could fly to Italy and eat pizza all day, I would, too.
- Bruce Wayne: Switzerland.
- Selina Kyle: Italy's better.
- [Jim Gordon breaks his deal with Valerie Vale and handcuffs her to the car door]
- Valerie Vale: What the hell are you doing?
- James Gordon: You're 100 yards from a police station. I'll be back in an hour or two.
- Valerie Vale: We had a deal.
- James Gordon: If there's a story, I'll make sure you get it.
- Valerie Vale: Oh, you're a son of a bitch.
- James Gordon: Also, you could scream, but then you'd have to tell the cops everything. And you'd lose the story entirely.
- [Captain Barnes chews out Jim Gordon and Harvey Bullock]
- Captain Nathaniel Barnes: I don't know, which one of you I want to bat over the head with this cane more.
- Captain Nathaniel Barnes: [Barnes yells into Gordon's face] I get it. Life disappointed you. So what? Does that make you special? I'm done with you. You cross me again, I will have you skinned alive and your head put on a pike.
- Captain Nathaniel Barnes: [Barnes speaks calmly to Bullock's face] And you, when I came back, and saw the way you handled things while I was away, I swear, I had this feeling right here. I thought I was having a heart attack. But it was pride, Bullock. In you. The next time I have that feeling, I'll know it was just gas.
- [Valerie Vale sees Jim Gordon leaving the GCPD]
- Valerie Vale: That's it? You're not gonna try and find Mooney?
- James Gordon: Barnes is on it. I've had a long day. I'm gonna get a drink.
- Valerie Vale: Gordon...
- Valerie Vale: [Valerie pauses before smiling] Nothing.
- [Barbara Kean tortures the henchman Boris who has a rag stuffed in his mouth]
- Boris: It's a lie! The cwub is in our territory.
- Barbara Kean: [Barb chuckles] 'Cwub?' What's a 'cwub?'
- Boris: Cwub.
- Barbara Kean: What's a 'cwub?' I mean, can anyone understand him? Do you know what a "cwub" is?
- Boris: Cwub.
- [Barb chuckles]
- [Barbara Kean solves the mystery behind the henchman Boris]
- Barbara Kean: Are you telling me you don't see what's going on here? He is behind this.
- Butch Gilzean: [Barb points to Butch] What are you talking about?
- Barbara Kean: He sent this ding dong to squeeze us, hoping it would send us back to you, so that he could lord it over Tabby. Ain't that right?
- Butch Gilzean: [Butch chuckles] That's c... that's just... that's crazy. She's crazy. She was in Arkham. Hello?
- Oswald Cobblepot: 'Hello'? So was I.
- [Fish Mooney questions Ms. Peabody on where Hugo Strange is being held]
- Fish Mooney: Where is Strange?
- Ethel Peabody: I don't know. They've hidden him somewhere secret.
- Fish Mooney: Him fixing me is just the beginning. I want an army. I want an army like me! And he is going to give it to me.
- Ethel Peabody: He can't.
- Fish Mooney: Oh, he will. Or he will die.
- [Alfred Pennyworth tells Bruce Wayne the rules with the new alarm system installed]
- Alfred Pennyworth: Right, once this alarm is set, Master Bruce, no coming downstairs till the morning, is that clear?
- Bruce Wayne: Yes, but was a new alarm system really necessary?
- Alfred Pennyworth: I don't know. Was it really necessary offering a challenge to a shadowy cabal? Yes, it was necessary, Master Bruce.
- [the henchman Boris walks into Barbara Kean's bar]
- Boris: You built this club on our territory. We let you, 'cause we heard Penguin had your back. And now we hear that ain't so.
- Barbara Kean: Oh.
- Boris: Bad for you; good for us.
- Barbara Kean: [Barb downs her drink before smiling] Get the hell out.
- Boris: This place is ours now. Do you understand?
- Barbara Kean: [Barb gets slapped across the face] You can't just come...
- Barbara Kean: [Boris gets ready to slap Barb again] Don't hit me, okay? Please.
- [as Barb starts to cry, chuckle, and laugh, then laugh hysterically]
- [last lines]
- Bruce Wayne: [Alfred Pennyworth fights the masked man before getting knocked out] Alfred?
- Bruce Wayne: [Bruce Wayne tries waking up the unconscious Alfred] Alf... Alfred! Alfred, wake up. Alfred!
