Quotes 

• Zatanna Zatara : Just to clue you in, Monty here makes a living exposing magicians' secrets.

  Dr. Montague Kane : Simple tricks and nonsense.

  Zatanna Zatara : Aha. And I've invited him here to find the secret of the feat I'm attempting tonight.

  Dr. Montague Kane : There is no secret. What you're proposing is flat-out impossible.

  Zatanna Zatara : Well, kids, impossible is what I'm all about. Mr. Fauncewater, open the doors, please.

  [the doors to the mint are opened] 

  Zatanna Zatara : $10 million and the means to make it. Take a good look, folks, 'cause you know what they say about money: easy come... easy... go!

  Fauncewater : [in a cloud of smoke, the mint and money vanish into thin air]  Oh, my.

  Dr. Montague Kane : Bravo, my dear. It was a pleasure to be proven wrong.

  Zatanna Zatara : Thank you, Monty. And now, just so Irv doesn't have a fit, I'll bring it back, good as new. Arba-de-caraba!

  Fauncewater : [in another cloud of smoke, it returns]  The money. Where's the money?

  Zatanna Zatara : "Where's the money", he says. It's right there, isn't it?

  Fauncewater : It's gone! What have you done with it?

  Zatanna Zatara : Now, take it easy, Irv. I'm sure there's a perfectly logical explanation.

  Dr. Montague Kane : And I'm sure the audience would like to hear it... as would the police.

• Dr. Montague Kane : Take a last longing look, gentlemen. We're heading to a place where the climate is warmer, the people are friendlier, and the extradition laws are nonexistent.

  Batman : The only place you're heading is to a prison cell.

  Dr. Montague Kane : Well done, Batman. You not only eluded my trap, but solved my clue as well.

  [to his thugs] 

  Dr. Montague Kane : Get rid of him.

• Dr. Montague Kane : With all reverence for the departed, Zatara himself couldn't escape those locks. Still, between the two of you, you might be able to loosen a few chains before you hit the water.

  Batman : Take my hand.

  Zatanna Zatara : Scared? That makes two of us.

  Batman : Trust me, Zanna.

  Zatanna Zatara : [surprised]  Zanna?
