To Another Shore (2005)

Susan Eisenberg: Wonder Woman, Princess Diana

Quotes 

• Wonder Woman : Mr. Terrific can fill in. He's smart enough to do monitor duty and the Sunday Times crossword puzzle at the same time.

  Mr. Terrific : Go ahead, J'onn - I'm already finished with the crossword.

  Green Arrow : You did it in ink again, didn't you?

• [Wonder Woman appears in a smart suit] 

  Green Arrow : [wolf whistle]  Looking good, Diana. Hot date?

  Wonder Woman : No such luck, Ollie. I'm representing Themyscira at the global warming conference.

  Green Arrow : Way to go, man. Save the planet!

  Wonder Woman : More like "save my relationship with my mother."

  Green Arrow : Hey, at least you're speaking again.

  Wonder Woman : It's the first thing she's asked me to do since we mended fences. I'd rather take another day trip to Tartarus.

• Heat Wave : [after the workers have warned them about melting the ice]  So?

  Wonder Woman : [flying in from above]  So I'm not going to let you do it.

  [to Giganta] 

  Wonder Woman : Out of my way, jumbo.

  [plows into her hard] 

  Giganta : Ow! That hurt.

  [smacks her hard through the air] 

• Princess Diana : Agent Faraday, what are you doing here?

  King Faraday : [blowing a bubble and popping it]  Not smoking.

  [offering a piece of gum] 

  King Faraday : Want some?

  Princess Diana : No, thanks.

  King Faraday : I'm here with the special security team. The vice president is attending. But you know that already. I saw you reading him the riot act earlier.

  Princess Diana : I'm not much of a diplomat.

  King Faraday : Don't sell yourself short, lady. You're an international incident waiting to happen.

• King Faraday : We should retreat.

  Wonder Woman : I'm not backing down from a fight.

  King Faraday : Your bloodstream's full of poison. I can't believe you're still on your feet. It's only a matter of time before your system shuts down.

  Wonder Woman : [Giganta crashes through Killer Frost's ice slide]  I guess calling for support isn't backing down.

  King Faraday : I gotta say it ain't.

• J'onn J'onzz : Mr. Terrific is more that capable, but I insist on remaining where I am needed.

  Wonder Woman : Turn around and talk to me.

  [J'onn turns to Diana] 

  Wonder Woman : You've been cooped up like a hermit in the Watchtower for almost two years now.

  J'onn J'onzz : I can better serve the League...

  Wonder Woman : We're not even going to have that argument. You're a super-strong, nearly-invulnerable, telepathic shape-changer. The reason you aren't on the ground protecting humanity is because you don't want to be. You don't actually like humanity all that much, do you?

  J'onn J'onzz : I don't dislike them.

  Wonder Woman : You're not the only newcomer to this world around here. People have strange ways and take a lot of getting used to. But it's worth the effort. They're worth it.

  Green Arrow : She's got your number, J'onn. You need to mingle, maybe take a meal in the commissary every once in awhile.

  J'onn J'onzz : My Martian physiology doesn't require as many meals as a human.

  Wonder Woman : You know what he means. You must be terribly lonely. I've gotta go, but we're not done talking about this.

• Green Arrow : I think you'll make a great diplomat. Leave your sword.

  Wonder Woman : I'm serious, I really don't wanna go by myself. J'onn, how about you come along and keep me company?

  J'onn J'onzz : The Justice League currently has 23 active missions in progress. Only I can properly deploy what remains of our resources.

• Wonder Woman : J'onn, I've got a situation.

  J'onn J'onzz : Watchtower sensors have picked up the earth tremors from your location. I knew you were on the scene and assumed you could handle it.

  Wonder Woman : Well, I can't. I'm outnumbered and I'm not feeling well.

  J'onn J'onzz : We're still shorthanded. I could spare Green Arrow and Mr. Terrific.

  Wonder Woman : Bring who you want, J'onn, but I need *you*.

• Green Arrow : How's the shoulder, Diana?

  Wonder Woman : Better. The antitoxin I found in Devil Ray's belt did the trick.

  King Faraday : I still don't get what all this was about.

  Green Arrow : They think the Viking Prince's corpse will give them the secret of invulnerability.

  J'onn J'onzz : That was their plan, or as much of it as I could learn before something shut down Giganta's mind.

  Wonder Woman : Green Lantern said the same thing happened when he tried to question Metallo.

  King Faraday : So these guys were working with Metallo?

  J'onn J'onzz : And perhaps with others. We can't leave Prince Jon's body here. Whoever else is involved will just try again.

  Wonder Woman : The legend of the Viking Prince is known even to my people. If this is really him, he deserves to be laid to rest according to tradition. I'll take care of it.

  Green Arrow : Meanwhile, something's definitely not kosher. Strange thefts, supervillains with their heads hot-wired to short out if you question them. We got a real mystery developing here.

  J'onn J'onzz : True. But it's a mystery you'll have to solve without me.

• Vice President : The proposed accords are far too drastic. With all due respect, princess, we're talking about committing hundreds of billions of dollars, and nobody's even proven the existence of global warming.

  Princess Diana : My mother's government fully supports the findings of her scientists, and those of the vast majority of scientists here in man's world.

  Foreign Diplomat : My government does not accept those studies.

  Princess Diana : Then accept the evidence of your eyes. There's a Viking ship at the bottom of this mountain, hidden in ice for 1,100 years. If it weren't for global warming, we wouldn't even know about it.

  Vice President : Yes, and it was clever PR for our hosts to hold the talks here. But it is not proof.

  Princess Diana : You have to take this seriously. Atlantis has already withdrawn from the World Assembly over this, and they aren't the only country considering action.

  Foreign Diplomat : Are you suggesting Themyscira might do the same?

  Princess Diana : If your pollution continues to affect my home, my mother is less likely to withdraw than she is to attempt a military solution.

  [seeing everybody staring] 

  Princess Diana : As a last resort only, of course.

• King Faraday : You okay?

  Wonder Woman : Arm's numb. Stomach's not all that great, either.

  King Faraday : Easy, princess. Let me look at that.

  [checking her shoulder] 

  King Faraday : Stinger's still in there.

  Wonder Woman : Pull it out.

  King Faraday : There's a barb. You want a bullet to bite? There's plenty lying around.

  Wonder Woman : Now.

  King Faraday : [removing it]  That's all. It's out.

  Wonder Woman : Then let's take them down.
