Quotes 

• Clark Kent : So just keep your ears open. Let me know if you hear any buzz about the Joker.

  Bibbo : Sure thing, Mr. Kent. Uh... but, uh, which one? There's lots of jokers around here.

• Dan Turpin : [the laughing Carlini is in the hospital]  They found him like this at the city dump. The lights are on, but nobody's home.

  Superman : But we know who did it. He's telling us right now.

• Superman : I won't have vigilantism in my town.

  Batman : You'll be rid of me as soon as I find the Joker.

  Superman : That may not be soon enough.

  [Batman takes out a sliver of kryptonite] 

  Superman : [recoiling]  Uhh.

  Batman : It doesn't take much, does it? The Joker has 20 pounds more where this came from. Thought you might like to know.

• Batman : Where's the Joker?

  Binko : Who knows? Making ha-ha with Harley Quinn.

  [Batman applies pressure around his throat] 

  Binko : I don't know, honest! I never went back after he muscled in. I don't want nothing to do with that clown.

  Superman : That's enough. I think you got your answer.

  [Batman throws him across the room] 

  Superman : [getting up and knocking him over]  I heard you were crazy. I didn't think you were stupid.

  [using his x-ray vision on Batman's cowl] 

  Superman : Bruce Wayne?

  Batman : You peeked.

• Clark Kent : I hear Wayne's deal with LexCorp could run into the billions. He's a high-roller.

  Lois Lane : I hear he's nothing but Gotham trash. Rich, spoiled, and...

  [seeing Bruce as he debarks his plane] 

  Lois Lane : ...absolutely gorgeous.

  [reporters shout questions at him] 

  Lois Lane : Quick, is my hair straight?

• Superman : I hope I didn't shake you and the others up too badly.

  Lois Lane : I hate to say... I've gotten used to it.

  [he turns to fly away] 

  Lois Lane : Um, Superman...

  Superman : Yes?

  Lois Lane : Um, how can I put this? I was just thinking it might be nice to see each other when I wasn't... I don't know, falling out a window or something. Not that I'm not grateful for all the times you've helped me, you understand.

  Superman : I understand.

  Lois Lane : You do?

  Superman : [hearing an explosion nearby]  It's the First National Bank.

  Lois Lane : You'd better go. People might...

  [he flies away] 

  Lois Lane : ...get hurt.

  [leaving] 

  Lois Lane : "I understand, Lois." Really? You do? "Yep, you're a complete moron." Why, thank you, Superman. I think I'm a total loser, too. Jeez.

• Lois Lane : I just wanted to let you know I'll be in late tomorrow. I'm having breakfast with Bruce.

  Clark Kent : Isn't that special.

  Lois Lane : Do I detect a note of disapproval?

  Clark Kent : [finding a bat-tracker on his cape]  You were the one who compared him to garbage.

  Lois Lane : Well, I was wrong. He's very thoughtful, and much deeper than the gossip mongers would lead you to believe. You'd be surprised.

  Clark Kent : Would I, now?

  Lois Lane : I'll let you go so you can count sheep or whatever you Kansas boys dream about. Bye.

  Clark Kent : [spotting Batman spying on him from a nearby rooftop]  Touché.

• Bruce Wayne : Aren't you the famous Lois Lane?

  Lois Lane : Me, famous? Well, hardly. I mean... this is Clark Kent.

  Clark Kent : [offering a handshake]  Mr. Wayne.

  Bruce Wayne : [helping Lois pick up her dropped belongings instead]  I read all about your adventure on Air Force One. You're quite the newsmaker.

  Lois Lane : No more than you. Which brings up the question of why you're in town.

  Mercy Graves : Mr. Wayne, your car.

  Bruce Wayne : Maybe we can discuss it over dinner, if you're available.

  Lois Lane : Totally. I... I mean, I think so. I'll have to check my cal... y-yes.

  Bruce Wayne : Great. I'll pick you up at 8:00.
