- Horatio Knox: Hey, K.D. [footsteps: 2 instances, metallic clink, footsteps: 2 instances, door opens, metallic clink] Looking hot.
- Simon DeLuca: [door closes, live music performing: big band jazz, footsteps: 2 instances] You got some fries with that shake?
- Luke Fox: What did you just say? [stomp, panicked shout, stumbling footsteps]
- Kathleen Duquesne: Easy there, Luke... He's not worth it. Oh, look... There's a table right over there... [footsteps: 2 instances, long sigh] I know, not exactly the book-club crowd.
- Luke Fox: I suppose you know who owns this place.
- Oswald Cobblepot: [waddling footsteps] She should. I bought her her first parasol. [kiss on hand] Kathleen.
- Kathleen Duquesne: Ozzie.
- Oswald Cobblepot: And Mr. Fox, is it? It's been quite a while, hasn't it? My, how you've grown?
- Luke Fox: Yes. I believe it was when you had me kidnapped as a boy and held hostage in an attempt to have my dad pull WayneTech out of a technology contract that was in competition with one of your subsidiary enterprises...
- Oswald Cobblepot: [nervous chuckle] Oh, yes, my more rambunctious days.
- Horatio Knox: [footsteps] Sir, your call just came in.
- Oswald Cobblepot: The vagaries of a restaurateur. You understand. [fading footsteps, waddling footsteps fading]
- Kathleen Duquesne: Didn't know you and Penguin had issues..
- Luke Fox: It's not the bird that's bothering me... it's you.
- Kathleen Duquesne: Game? [music stops, live music starts: "Betcha Never"]
- Luke Fox: What kind of game are you playing?
- Kathleen Duquesne: Me?
- Luke Fox: You dump your guards for a night, and where do you go? A club where patrons are your father's cronies. It's like you want him to hear about it,
- Kathleen Duquesne: I'm not sure I like your tone. [scoff] I think I'll decide in the powder room. Twa-la. [footsteps]
- Simon DeLuca: [footsteps] Hey, bozo... Lose your girlfriend? Mind if I- [whack, thud]
- Luke Fox: [chuckle] Oops. My bad. Didn't see you there, man.
