- Talia al Ghul: Oh? Interesting outfit, princess. I miss the shorts. So, let me guess how this goes. You're going to tie me up with that magical rope of hers and make me spill my darkest secrets? Don't bother. I have mastered techniques that counter even that.
- Wonder Woman: We're not going to tie you up. In fact... play your cards right and we might let you out of this cell.
- Talia al Ghul: Wait, come again?
- Batman: Talia, Commander Trevor and Wonder Woman are here to serve as witnesses of our conversation. We know about how your man have infiltrated the convoy transporting you to Belle Reve tomorrow... and we're going to let it happen.
- Talia al Ghul: What's the catch?
- Batman: You instruct your man not to kill anyone in their escape, you assume leadership of the League of Assassins, and keep them from imploding... and most importantly, you do not try to break out your father or any other League prisoners. They stay in Arkham. Non-negotiable.
- Talia al Ghul: Smart move, beloved. You recognize that the League is an entity that's only more dangerous without its Head?
- Steve Trevor: In order for this to work, A.R.G.U.S. will need assurances, Talia. I need assurances that you will honor this agreement.

- Batman: Your word? No, Talia. We need something more than that. I need something substantial.
- Talia al Ghul: Let me finish, Bruce. [sigh] You can have my... No... Sorry. You can have our son.
- Steve Trevor: Whaaaaa?
- Talia al Ghul: Is that substantial enough for you? Nevermind, your expression says it is.
- Wonder Woman: Batman... Is she telling-
- Batman: Leave! [Steve Trevor: "I'm afraid I can't-"] [whack, thud] [Wonder Woman: "Bruce!"] Diana, Commander Trevor has fainted. You better get him out of here. [sigh, footsteps, door close]
- Talia al Ghul: Oh? Want some privacy do we? [chuckle] Do you have handcuffs on that utility belt? Oh, nevermind.. Someone's not in a happy- [body hitting floor, growl] Mood.
- Oracle: Bruce, what do you think you're do- [Lost Signal to Assets Comms: Batman] Dammit, Bruce...
