Bill Smitrovich: Ronny Boxer

Quotes 

• Ronny Boxer : Things are a whole lot simpler than they used to be, Batman. Everything's automated. Don't need cameramen. Don't even need handlers. I control all the action with the touch of a button. You wanna know what's behind door number one, Batman?

  Batman : [a door opens]  One of your serostone creations. I saw them.

  Ronny Boxer : Not this one, you didn't. He's my first experiment with the stuff. Guess I went a little overboard. I was gonna put him out to pasture, but I always knew I'd find a use for him.

• Batman : You sure this is Ronny Boxer's place? Looks more like Chem Lab 101.

  Bruce Wayne : I'm sure.

  Batman : [looking around]  I wouldn't wanna be sleeping next to this stuff. He's got enough trithane to supply every hospital on the East Coast.

  Bruce Wayne : Trithane?

  Batman : Yeah. And some Metatonin. Zirconite. And this one I can't even pronounce.

  Bruce Wayne : Zeltanic methylchlorine?

  Batman : You're scaring me.

  Bruce Wayne : It's the final ingredient in making serostone.

  Batman : The growth hormone?

  Bruce Wayne : He must be using it on the dogs. And turning them into monsters.

  Batman : And I thought he couldn't stoop any lower.

  Ronny Boxer : [appearing with a blaster rifle]  All in the name of profit, Batman.

• Ronny Boxer : What you doing here, Maddie? I don't have time for games.

  Maddie : Got a dog for you, Mr. Boxer. He's a real contender.

  Ronny Boxer : [seeing Ace in his crate]  You tryin' to cheat me? Selling me back my own mutt?

  Maddie : What? I swear, I...

  Ronny Boxer : Slag it. Must be fate, me and this pooch. We were meant to be together, ain't that right, boy?

  [Ace snaps at his hand, then chews on one of the crate's bars] 

  Ronny Boxer : Put him below. I'll deal with him after the games. And if nothing else, he'll make a nice playmate for the other dogs.
