  The Penguin : Ah, crack! How should I to know they'd have a can of shark-repellent Batspray handy? Why, you sniveling sardine!

  The Riddler : And you pompous, puffed-up, Penguin!

• The Penguin : Ahoy there! Could you chaps direct me to a policeman? Commodore Schmidlapp's the name. Big Ben Distilleries, you know.

  [Batman and Robin look at each other] 

  Robin : Holy costume party. That's the Penguin.

  Batman : Obviously.

  Robin : What's his game, I wonder.

  [Batman turns back to the Penguin]

  The Penguin : Penguin?

  [laughs] 

  The Penguin : No, my name's Schmidlapp, old boy. Schmidlapp.

• The Penguin : Waugh waugh!

  The Joker : [mocking]  Waugh waugh!

• The Riddler : I see the way to do it! We'll play each of our treacherous trumps in one hand, and we'll do it right here!

  The Penguin : How?

  The Riddler : How? The end! The end, oh...

  [giggles] 

  The Riddler : We shall spring them from The Joker's Jack-In-The-Box, through that window, out over the sea, and into the waiting arms of The Penguin's Exploding Octopus!

  [giggles again] 

  The Riddler : The trigger: one of my riddles, of course, and the bait: You! Catwoman!

• The Catwoman : You dismal bird! You and your submarine, Where has it got us now?

  The Penguin : Shut up, you feline floozy!

• [Penguin's submarine has been fired upon by Batman and Robin] 

  The Catwoman : Penguin, you know I can't take water!

  The Penguin : You cowardly kitten! You want to live forever?

• The Penguin : Now hear this, now hear this. This is your Captain speaking. My fine pinioned pirates, we're approaching the tricky buoy! Sharpen your cutlasses! There may be skullduggery ahead!

• The Penguin : There are two eggs this wily bird is going to scramble: Batman and Robin! Waugh, waugh, waugh, waugh!

• The Catwoman : [to her cat]  Sic 'em, Hecate. Scratch out their eyes.

  The Penguin : Take away that ravenous panther!

  The Riddler : So help me, Catwoman, I'll feed him to the birds.

  The Joker : I'll incapacitate the beast with my trick confetti!

• The Penguin : Quite right! We must hang together, or most assuredly we shall hang separately.

• The Penguin : Great quivering icebergs!

• The Joker : Don't sound so bossy! If you please.

  The Penguin : My dear, sir, as the poet says: "On land, you may command. At sea, it is me." Waa-waa!

• The Penguin : Capital! But who are we going to kidnap?

  The Riddler : I know the perfect victim. I know the perfect victim! l know the perfect victim! Bruce Wayne, the millionaire head of that disgusting do-gooding Wayne Foundation.

  The Joker : Oo! Ooo! Delicious! Just the sort of square citizen Batman will dash to rescue.

• The Penguin : He swallowed the Catbait!

  The Joker : And now to make him Batbait.

• The Riddler : The Dynamic Duo has been silenced forever.

  The Joker : And blasted out of the sky by a coincidence! Oh, the delicious irony of it! Downed by one of Riddler's Polaris skywriters.

  The Penguin : Oh, happy happenstance! Now, hold your breaths as we cross the hall. There are still lingering traces of my finely filtered Penguin gas.

• The Riddler : You and your reconditioned war surplus torpedoes!

  The Penguin : He must be using a super energy reverse polarizer!

• The Penguin : Passing porpoises which intercept torpedoes! There ought to be a piscatorial statute!
