QUOTES

THOMAS: You can't do this! I've seen what you've done to the others! Please let me go! I'll pay anything!

IVY: You've done enough damage with your money.

THOMAS: You wicked, evil--

IVY: Evil, Mrs. Thomas? I don't control a company that leveled a thousand year old forest for a strip mine! That's evil!

--

BRUCE: I hate it when things slip by me.

ALFRED: And with me helping you to answer your mail, nothing will. Ah, it says here you just won ten-million dollars.

BRUCE: That's nice.

--
BRUCE: Everyone's got a gimmick.

--

IVY (as Demeter): After years of research in my lab, I have developed this enzyme, Demetrite, the secret of eternal youth.

MAGGIE: Doesn't she look wonderful?

ALFRED: Not a day over ninety.

IVY (as Demeter): Here you'll fine Demetrite in the food, the water, even the air you breathe at night.

ALFRED (sarcastic): What a relaxing thought.

--

BATMAN: I'll search her penthouse.

GORDON: Good luck. We put that place under a microscope, and all we got was eyestrain. Maybe your bat-radar can--

GORDON LOOKS AROUND AND SEES THAT HE'S ALONE.

GORDON: Pft-- Never mind. . .

--

BRUCE: Alfred, are you okay?

ALFRED: Never better, sir! Everywhere I turn, I see another sign of nature's--

ALFRED SEES MAGGIE NAKED AND COVERED IN MUD.

ALFRED: Uh-- beauty.

--

BATMAN LOOKS AROUND TO SEE THE CAVE IS FULL OF FOLIAGE AND SHRUBBERY.

ALFRED: Good to see you, sir!

BATMAN: You too, Alfred. What's with the jungle?

ALFRED: I thought this drab old cave could use some colour. How does it look?

BATMAN (pauses): Green.

--

IVY: Actually, Batman, you and I are surprisingly alike. We both strive to see evil-doers punished! But while you have your gallery of rogues, I have my grove.

IVY UNCOVERS HER GALLERY OF TREE PEOPLE, FROZEN IN WOOD.

BATMAN: This can't be!

--

IVY: And I thought you believed in justice!

BATMAN: Justice, yes. But not the vengeance of an eco-terrorist. You're as destructive as those you punish.
