Episode Quotes
 
(Terry is sleeping in class.)
Teacher: Mr. Mcginnis, I see that gravity has gotten the beter of you.
 
Bruce: (to Terry) These late nights too rough for you?
Terry: It's not the nights that are tough... it's the mornings.
 
Salesman: Jeez, what'll I tell my suppliers?
Batman: Tell them you had a fire sale.
 
Bruce: (To Terry) Arch criminals are something I can handle. Mothers are something else...
 
Batman: (To Bruce) He must be a zillion years old... How much trouble could an old geiser... Never mind.
 
(a gun salesman truck drives by. It pulls into the alley.)
Joker: Wohoo! Time for something sweet.
Salesman: Now boys, don't crowd... (opens a pannel up and shows them the guns) there's plenty for everyone.
Joker: I could have some laughs with this. (picks up a gun and shoots it.) Nasty.
 
Dana: (to Terry) Wasn't that a great game? I mean... the parts you stayed awake for.
 
Batman: 500 channels and nothing good on.
 
Coach Greegen: (to Batman) Looks like I got a rodent problem. I don't know why your poking your nose in my gym, and frankly I don't care. I eat punks like you for breakfast!
Batman: (ties him up) Sorry to spoil your appetite.
 
Matt: Boy are you in trouble.
Mary: Terry? Is that you?
Terry: Yeah mom.
Mary: Do you know what time it is?
 
(Matt emties Terry's backpack)
Mary: What are those.
Terry: Nothing.
Mary: Don't lie to me. They're slappers aren't they? I saw them on the news.
Terry: Mom... It's not what you think.
 
Bruce: Bane.
Terry: I've heard of him.
Bruce: Your going to meet him as well.
Terry: Sure... as long as I'm home by nine.
 
Bruce: It was a dead end?
Batman: Yeah, but if Bane's not making the venom... Who is?
 
Coach Greegen: Wake up Mason, my grandmother can hit batter than that.
 
Batman: That must be the hideout.
Bruce: The old Gotham Herald building? It's been abandoned for years...
Batman: Sure.... Who reads newspapers anymore.
 
Mary: I don't beleive it. Why would he let that go on?
Bruce: He wanted to win at any cost, so he looked the other way... Right Terry?
Mary: (sees Terry sleeping) Terry!
Bruce: It's alright... He's had a bussy night.
 
 
Cultural References
 
Austin Powers:

There is a small reference to the Austin Powers movies. When Batman is telling Bruce what one of the thugs name was, Batman is interupted with Chealsea talking to Mason. Some scenes like that happened in many of the Austin Powers movies.
 
 
Analysis
 
Venom:

Venom is the same as a very strong steriod compound.
