Jerry the Butler: [reads invitation] A little last minute, isn't it?
Adam West: Charity doesn't punch a clock, my friend.
Jerry the Butler: I guess you'll be needing your tuxedo.
Adam West: Nooo. I think something a little more in keeping with the times. Something a little less formal. Something... Clooneyish.

[Adam and Burt are at a diner. Burt reads a menu]

Burt Ward: But look what's *on* the menu, or rather *who*. A "Burgess Burger...”
Adam West: What?
Burt Ward: "Gorshin Franks and Beans...” "Cesar Romero Salad...” "Vincent Fries...” They even have drinks. Look, a "Julie New-Martini."
[Burt hands Adam the menu and Adam reads it]

Burt Ward: Almost every actor who played a villain our characters battled.
Adam West: Battled? Yes, and triumphed over. Any one of them could still be harboring a grudge.

Burt Ward: Good guys don't lurk!

Adam West: We've entered the mind of a madman.
Jerry the Butler: My mind and welcome to it.
