Terry Moore: Venus

Quotes 

• Venus : [a package has arrived at the Joker's hideout]  What's inside, Joker? $2,000 is a lot of money.

  The Joker : Ah, this merchandise is worth $2,000!

  The Penguin : [popping out of box]  It's worth 200,000! You cheapskate. At least you could have sent me a plane ticket!

  The Joker : Oh ho, we had to get you into Gotham City without anyone knowing about it, Pengy. Especially Batman.

  The Penguin : Well, you better have have something good cooked up for that caped creep.

  The Joker : Oh, oh, oh, don't you worry, Pengy. The pot's being put on the fire right now and Batman's in it!

  [laughs] 

  The Penguin : Oh, you are a man after my own heart, Joker!

  The Joker : Ah, Black, eh?

  The Penguin : Black as pitch!

  [both laugh] 

• Venus : Couldn't we call it off, Joker? "Mercy to a brave foe", and all that?

  The Joker : You're losing your nerve, Venus. Which is a shame. But you're also losing your senses, which is criminal! Hold her.

  [laughs as his goons grab Venus by the arms] 

  Venus : [turns to the imperiled Batman]  Batman, I realize right now: I've made a terrible mistake.

  Batman : Repence is better late than never, Venus.

  The Joker : [pulls a face of disgust]  Eew! You're making me ill! Ech.
