Batwoman (TV Series)

I'll Give You a Clue (2021)

Wallis Day: Kate Kane, Circe Sionis

Quotes 

• Alice : I've seen my fair share of torture toys, if you know what I mean. I think she knows what I mean, but, um, what the hell is that?

  Black Mask : Oh, you don't need to worry about this. I'd rather you use your energy conjuring up a name.

  Alice : Gladly.

  Black Mask : Hmm. When you crashed my Snakebite cookout last night, you brought a friend: Batwoman.

  Alice : Friend?

  [laughing] 

  Alice : No. That conniving, pointy-eared manipulator led me down the garden path of partnership and trust only to stab me in the back, but you know what? It's my fault. I should have known. You put on the suit, you're not happy until Alice is behind bars, but you know what really irks me...

  Black Mask : Shut up! I'm the one doing the torturing here, not you. Give me her name so I can destroy her life the way she destroyed my business.

  Alice : It eludes me.

  Black Mask : You're lying.

  Circe Sionois : Black Mask enjoys people making it difficult for themselves.

  Alice : Well, then, I'm your girl.

  Black Mask : [placing Alice's finger in a contraption with a wood splinter under her fingernail]  Now, if that doesn't pry something out of you, well, we got nine more tries.

• Circe Sionois : Word of advice. The last person who tried to one-up me ended up with his eyes gouged out like two olives on a toothpick.

  Alice : Now, that makes me want a martini.

  Circe Sionois : Well, just tell Black Mask who Batwoman is, and you'll be drinking one soon.

  Alice : Here's the thing. I could, but then I wouldn't have the satisfaction of killing her myself. It's personal, but I've had limited success with my vengeance games as of late, and quite frankly, it's left me feeling rather... pbfft... unfulfilled.

  Circe Sionois : Feelings. How awful. I hope it's worth your life one... eyeball... at a time.

  Alice : Funny story. You remind me of an inmate I heard of at Arkham. Sweet Circe Sionis. Poked the baby blues out of some corporate bigwig. My Mouse and I used to call her "Can't CEO Killer." Ahh. Memories.

  Circe Sionois : He deserved it.

  Alice : Who, dear?

  Circe Sionois : The corporate bigwig. He crossed a line, and I had to make sure he never found his way back.

  Alice : [recognizing her]  You. You gouged his eyeballs out. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk. Why, if it isn't Circe Sionis. I heard that you were trampled to death in the Arkham breakout.

  Circe Sionois : On the contrary. I was rescued by my father.

  Alice : And did you get those horrific burns before or after Daddy saved you?

  [seeing her react] 

  Alice : Touchy subject?

  Circe Sionois : Enough about me. It's time to talk about Batwoman.

  Alice : Bring me Black Mask. I'll tell him exactly what he wants to hear.
