Episode Quotes
 
(To Batman in a straight jacket)
Dr. Bartholomew: You'd never think he's wind up here after all he has done.
 
(To Batman)
Dr. Wu: Batman you must let me treat you, otherwse in 24 hours you won't be able to tell reality from fantasy.
 
(To Dr. Bartholemew)
Batman: I already told you. If the gas leaks in to the Gotham water supply, the entire city will be affected!
 
Dr. Bartholomew: I hope I am not disturbing you.
Batman: Isn't that why I am here...because I am disturbed.
 
Batman: Alfred and Robin you have to help me.
Robin: Sorry Bruce, you have lived in darkness for far too long.
 
Dr. Bartholomew: I think this plot is just another delusion and deep down you believe so too. Otherwise, why come to Arkham? The one place where costumed delusional personalities can receive compassionate help
 
Batman: Some thought I'd gone mad. Others thought I always had been, and so they put me where they thought I belonged.
 
The Scarecrow: An entire city screaming in fear. I wonder if we'll be able to hear it.
