The New Batman Adventures (TV Series)

The Ultimate Thrill (1998)

Kevin Conroy: Batman, Bruce Wayne

Quotes 

• Roxy Rocket : You missed your calling, Batman. You should have been in the movies.

  Batman : Give it up, Roxy.

  Roxy Rocket : I'm afraid that's not in my nature.

  Batman : Mine neither.

  Roxy Rocket : That's what makes us such a perfect couple.

• Batman : Roxy Rocket, AKA Roxanne Sutton. She did all the stunts for Jennifer West in her action series.

  Batgirl : They say she doubled for some of the men, too.

  Alfred Pennyworth : She seems quite fearless.

  Batman : That was the problem. She began making stunts more dangerous than they needed to be. The danger of the work had become more important than the work itself. Finally, no company would insure her. She lost everything. I guess she's exacting some kind of revenge.

  Batgirl : Or she's still after the thrill. And now that she's had a taste of you, she's not gonna settle for anything less.

  Batman : One thing's for sure: she'll need a fence to get rid of the goods. I wanna know who it is.

• Roxy Rocket : Oh, baby, you're the best! The ultimate thrill. The final stunt. Me and you.

  [almost orgasmically] 

  Roxy Rocket : Yeah... yeah! YEAH!

  [in free fall] 

  Roxy Rocket : I knew it would be this way. The final stunt is the best.

  [Batman deploys a parachute and they land safely] 

  Roxy Rocket : What? I get it. We live to play another day.

  [realizing she's in handcuffs] 

  Roxy Rocket : W-W-What's this?

  Batman : [police cars approach]  My kind of game. And you lost.

• Batman : What are you doing?

  Roxy Rocket : Testing your true mettle, Batman. Jump now and you'll land in the water.

  Batman : And if I don't?

  Roxy Rocket : You'll either crash into the canyon wall or hit the ground ahead.

  Batman : So will you.

  Roxy Rocket : Now you understand the game. Time is running out. Better make your move.

  [he crosses his arms, unconcerned] 

  Batman : [grabbing her wrist as she reaches for the controls]  I thought you enjoyed risk.

• Lucius Fox : And after several weeks of competitive bidding...

  Bruce Wayne : And a king's ransom.

  Lucius Fox : ...Wayne Industries is now the proud owner of "Woman in Transition"

  [uncovering a painting, to underwhelmed indifference] 

  Bruce Wayne : Security seems kind of light, Lucius.

  Lucius Fox : Believe me, Bruce, it's covered. We've got guards posted at the main entrance and at all the elevators. No way anyone can get up here.

  Roxy Rocket : [crashing through the window]  Now, if nobody gives me trouble, this'll all be quick and painless.

  [taking the painting] 

  Roxy Rocket : Ah. A bold statement. Energetic, forceful, and yet small enough to fit in a saddlebag.

• Batman : I hope it's good news.

  Batgirl : It is. I just found out who Roxy's silent partner is. Gotham's trendiest restauranteur.

  Batman : Penguin.

  Batgirl : Yeah. My sources tell me she's been seen at the Iceberg Lounge after hours. *Way* after hours.

  Batman : And you're sure your sources are good?

  Batgirl : Depends on your definition of good. But I trust them.

• Batman : I see you gave your muscle the night off.

  The Penguin : What's it to you?

  Batman : Could be dangerous. You never know who might drop in.

  The Penguin : What do you want?

  Batman : Roxy Rocket.

  [showing him a diamond ring] 

  Batman : I believe you've seen this. It's from the zeppelin robbery. That's right, I found it in your pocket. You never could resist keeping a bauble or two.

  The Penguin : Maybe you'd like to show me your search warrant, as well.

  [stomping on a trash can pedal, a machine gun jumps into his hands and he begins firing] 

  Batman : [knocking him onto the balcony outside, he grabs and hangs him over the ledge]  What say we have a little talk? Just like old times.
