  Episode Quotes  
Roulette: Lex, darling. I’m having some serious financial problems, and I’m afraid you’re to blame.
Lex Luthor: Well, don’t look at me to bury you out, Roulette, I’m the one who skims you!
 
Roulette: You're playing with fire, witch!
Tala: Who's playing?
 
Roulette: The new Metabrawl! All girl fights, all the time! We’ll call it “The Glamour Slam” or “The Belles of the Brawl”!
Sonar: “Chickapalooza”!
 
Question: (about Black Canary) The deeper mystery here is "why do you even care?" Isn't this the woman who beat the snot out of you a few months back?
Huntress: She got a lucky shot in! (pause) Okay, five or six lucky shots.
 
Huntress: (over a cellphone) So, what are you wearing?
Question: Blue overcoat, fedora...
Huntress: You really stink at this.
Question: ...orange socks.
 
Roulette: Let the pain begin!
 
Huntress: (to Black Canary) They've had you up every night working the arena. No wonder you've been fighting like a girl. (pause) You know what I mean.
 
Huntress: Looks like we're in this together.
Black Canary: If you call me "girlfriend," I’m gonna dropkick you into the next county.
Huntress: Now, don't get all sentimental on me.
 
Vixen: I don’t wanna hurt you, Shayera.
Shayera: But I wanna hurt you!
 
Shayera: I don't think I wanna know.
Vixen: We're all in a cage match fighting to the death.
Shayera: Yeah! See?
 
Vixen: Anybody got a plan?
Shayera: Yeah, try to stay alive.
Huntress: Anybody got a good plan?
 
Sonar: In another thirty seconds your brains will be so scrambled I’ll be able to serve 'em up with bacon.
 
Huntress: (pointing a crossbow at Sonar) Do I kill the signal or you?
 
Huntress: You know, I was totally wiping your butt back when they caught us.
Black Canary: Pff. In your dreams!
Huntress: Like I’d waste my dreams on you…
