- [Selina picks up a vase]
- Bruce Wayne: It's from the Chinese Ming dynasty. Five... 500 years old.
- Selina Kyle: You can get one just like it for $5 in Chinatown.
- Oswald Cobblepot: [sniffing her] Mm. Lilacs. Mm. You smell good.
- Fish Mooney: [recoiling] You don't.
- Oswald Cobblepot: Snappy as ever. Oh.
- [giggles]
- Oswald Cobblepot: Well, goodbye, then. Sorry you're still grumpy with me. But you know, reaching out in friendship is never wrong...
- [leaves again]
- Butch Gilzean: Man, that dude's creepy.
- Bruce Wayne: There's plenty in the kitchen. Alfred would be happy to fix...
- Alfred Pennyworth: No, he won't be, will he? He's not a bloody hotel!
- [first lines]
- James Gordon: [entering the apartment] Barbara...
- Selina Kyle: Whoa. Sweet crib. You must be one rich cop.
- James Gordon: It's my girlfriend's place.
- Selina Kyle: Where is she?
- James Gordon: I don't know. Barbara...
- Selina Kyle: So, what? I get to stay here alone? I'm hungry.
- Barbara Kean: [Jim reading her letter] Dear Jim, I thought I could be strong and brave for you, but I can't. Every place I go, I see Falcone and Zsasz. I'm nervous and needy and screwed up. I know that's not what you need or want. So I'm going away for a while to get myself together.
- Selina Kyle: Aren't you supposed to be in school?
- Bruce Wayne: I'm developing my own curriculum. It lets me move at my own speed and focus on areas that interest me.
- Selina Kyle: Why? You're a billionaire. What's to learn?
- Bruce Wayne: That's a strange attitude.
- Selina Kyle: [finds him holding his breathe in the swimming pool] You're the weirdest kid I've ever met. Why are you doing that?
- Bruce Wayne: Training.
- Selina Kyle: Oh. Like the boxing. So if anyone mugs you with a diving board, you'll be ready?
- Bruce Wayne: Huh? Yes. I mean no. I'm developing self-discipline and willpower.
- Selina Kyle: Why?
- Bruce Wayne: So I can be strong.
- Selina Kyle: I get you. But it won't work. Not on the streets. Not in Gotham.
- Bruce Wayne: Why's that?
- Selina Kyle: Out there on the streets, it's not enough to be strong. You gotta be mean. You gotta be ruthless. Know what ruthless means?
- Bruce Wayne: Of course I do.
- Selina Kyle: Yeah? Well, you ain't. You're a nice kid. Five minutes on the street, you'll be mincemeat. And holding your breath won't do a damn thing.
- [last lines]
- James Gordon: [leaving her a message] Barbara, it's me. I got your letter, and I, um know you said you needed some time away from Gotham. From me. But I want you to come back. I need you to come back. I don't have anything without you. And I love you.
- [Bruce and Selina get into a food fight in the study. Alfred is about to break it up, when Gordon calls]
- James Gordon: Is everything all right? Is she behaving herself?
- Alfred Pennyworth: Well, not really, no. It's all right.
- James Gordon: It is?
- Alfred Pennyworth: Well, she's... a breath of fresh air, I might say.
- James Gordon: [surprised] Glad to hear it.
