Episode Quotes
 
Batman: What is this now, the fifth or sixth deathtrap I’ve been tied up to because of you over the years?
Green Arrow: Hey, I said I was sorry. Up and to the right. Who knew his wristwatch was equipped with knockout gas? What, like you’ve never made a mistake, Bats?
Batman: Apparently I made one when I thought you could help me stop the Clock King.
Green Arrow: You keep complaining. It gives me more time to show you up.
 
Batman: Let’s clean the King’s clock.
 
Jamie: Okay, okay, here’s one. Poison Ivy has used her mind-control spores on Superman to pit him against Batman. Oh, oh! And Batman has no kryptonite. Who wins?
Paco: Easy. Superman.
Jamie: Wrong. Batman, by using his kryptonite.
Paco: You just said he has no kryptonite.
Jamie: Trick question. Batman always has kryptonite.
 
Jamie: Think you could ever see me becoming a hero, Paco? You know, like, on a poster up in some kid’s bedroom?
Paco: Beep, beep beep! Detecting high levels of geek.
 
Jamie: Dude, how long have you been there?
Batman: Whoa, geek detectors off the charts.
 
Blue Beetle: This is like a dream come true. Partners with Batman!
Batman: We’re not partners. Not yet, at least.
 
Blue Beetle: So, where are we?
Batman: Judging from the position of the stars, I’d say that wormhole has brought us to somewhere on the backside of the Milky Way.
Blue Beetle: And you know that just by looking at dots of light in the sky? Ugh. Of course you do.
 
Blue Beetle: Who are these people and how do they know me?
Batman: The scarab. Someone had it before you. It must have found a new host after the last guy was killed. (Blue Beetle winces) Or… ummm… retired.
 
Blue Beetle: Uh, look. You guys aren’t always going to be able to rely on me. I mean, what if I got soccer practice or something. One of these days you might have to save yourselves, and the only way to do that is to find the power that’s within each of you. So, in conclusion, find the power within and um, you know, it’s better to die on your feet than live on your knees.
Batman: They don’t have knees. Now wrap it up.
Blue Beetle: Now wrap it up!
 
Blue Beetle: So, uh, what am I supposed to say here? “Let’s do it”? “Action”? “Move it or lose it”?
Batman: How about “attack”?
Blue Beetle: Oh, duh.
 
Blue Beetle: Oh, this is so cool.
Batman: When I said this job was about using your head, I didn’t mean for it to go to your head.
Gibble Leader: Ooh, sidekick must not speak in such tones to the Beetle.
Blue Beetle: Yeah, sidekick.
 
Jamie: Come on, think. So what would Batman do? (spits on the restraint controls, shorting them out and freeing himself) Okay, so, maybe Batman wouldn’t do that. But good enough.
 
Blue Beetle: It’s like no time’s passed since we left.
Batman: Due to the quantum anomalies of wormholes, none has. (to himself) Of course, that’s just a fancy way of saying, “that’s weird.”
