Quotes

Batmanuel: [getting off the phone with lawyer] They proposed a settlement.
Captain Liberty: No. Batmanuel, look at these people. This case isn't even about me any more. If I were to take a settlement now, I wouldn't be able to live with myself.
Batmanuel: *I* will live with you. In a big house, with big gates to keep people like this out.
