Quotes 

• Robin : Please, not the sidecar.

  Batman : I thought you liked the sidecar.

  Robin : Yeah, when I was 8.

• Crazy Quilt : I will carve the cityscape into a masterpiece to rival of Mount Rushmore.

  Robin : That's a pretty ambitious plan for a guy who can barely dress himself.

  Batman : No taunting, Robin.

  Crazy Quilt : Insolent whelp!

• Batman : More often than not, escaping a deathtrap is about quick thinking, not brute force.

  Robin : Yeah, but my way worked, too.

  Batman : Quilt said he's after something bigger. We need to find out what, fast. Let's move.

• Robin : Quilt's all mine.

  Batman : No. You go after Red. He's probably prepping their getaway.

  Robin : You always make me go after the henchmen.

  Batman : Because you're good at it. Now, go.

• Batman : You have no idea how deranged Quilt's become.

  Robin : You always knew more than I did about criminals, right?

  Batman : Look, I know you left Gotham so you could be your own man, but I'm only here to help. It'll be just like old times.

  Robin : Fine. But just remember...

  Batman : Follow my lead.

  Robin : ...you're in my city now.

• Batman : Hold it right there, Quilt. We cracked your color clues.

  Young Robin : And now you're painted into a corner.

  Crazy Quilt : The Dynamic Duo. Allow me to introduce my comrades, the Color Guard. They'll make abstracts of both of you.

  Young Robin : [taking down Red, Blue, and Green]  Ha. The Caped Crusaders win again.

• Robin : Look, I can handle this alone. It's me he wants.

  Batman : That's precisely why you won't handle it alone. Quilt is a madman and more dangerous than ever. But he still can't resist leaving clues to his crimes. Have there been any art thefts in Blüdhaven since he escaped?

  Robin : Van Gogh's "Starry Night" was on loan to the county museum. It went missing yesterday. It must mean Quilt is heading to S.T.A.R. Labs.

  Batman : I've got it. "Starry Night." It must mean Quilt is heading to S.T.A.R. Labs.

• Robin : He's got us cornered. So, what's the plan?

  Batman : Your villain, your call.

  Robin : I'm on it.

• Batman : You have to get me out of here quickly, so listen carefully.

  Robin : No, you listen. I've got some things I wanna get off my chest. First off, I'm not a child anymore. So I don't need you checking up on me and always looking over my shoulder. Sure, you taught me a lot when I was a kid. But I'm an adult now, and I've got my own city to look after. I don't need help. I don't chase henchmen. I don't get the costumes dry-cleaned. And I don't ride in sidecars. Admit it, Batman, I'm just as good as you.

  [seeing he's free] 

  Robin : Huh?

  Batman : Thanks for taking out the henchmen.

  Robin : [bitter]  Yeah. Apparently, that's my specialty.

• Young Robin : I guess Crazy Quilt finally saw the light, Batman.

  Batman : Yes, Robin. He's learned the hard way that justice is blind.

• Young Robin : Holy delusions of grandeur, Batman! I think Quilt is a few colors short of a rainbow.

  Batman : He needs to be taught to stay between the lines.

• Batman : It could be a trap. Stay behind me, Robin.

  Robin : If you're worried about my well-being, maybe I'd be safer back in the cave, rotating the tires on the Batmobile. You know, like old times.

  Batman : Speedy had to sharpen arrows. Aqualad had to scrape barnacles. Everyone earns their stripes.

• Young Robin : I agree with the commissioner, Batman. This clue sure looks like it points to the Gotham River.

  Batman : There's always more to a clue than what meets the eye, Robin. Crazy Quilt's paintings are no exception. He's referring to waves of light, not water. Red, blue, and green are the basic colors by which the human eye perceives light.

  [arriving at an art gallery] 

  Batman : Here's where we'll find that flamboyant fiend.

  [climbing the side of the building] 

  Batman : Quilt is after the extremely dangerous stimulated emission light amplifier.

  Young Robin : [looking through a window on the roof]  Gosh, Batman, you're right again.

  Batman : No time to rest on our laurels, Robin. Stay alert.

• Batman : Well done, old chum.

  Robin : Thanks. I'm glad you finally have faith I can do things on my own.

  Batman : I've always had faith in you, Robin. That's why I trusted you to work the streets of Blüdhaven solo.

  Robin : Well, I learned from the best.

  Batman : [a pager on his utility belt beeps]  The commissioner just called. Killer Moth hijacked the Gotham Bank money train. If you're up for it.

  Robin : [eagerly, then composing himself]  Gosh, I'd...! I mean, sure, I'm up for it.

  Batman : Then let's roll.

• Robin : [thinking]  Blüdhaven may look filthy, but at least I've cleaned the criminal scum off the streets. Even though some people thought I couldn't make it on my own.

  [seeing a large blinking eye in the sky] 

  Robin : Strange. It looks like...

  Batman : Morse code. It spells out an address on the corner of Haney and Aparo.

  Robin : What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be in a whale's belly with Aquaman or something?

  Batman : Crazy Quilt escaped.

  Robin : From Arkham, I know.

  Batman : Good. Then you know it's you he's after.

  Robin : Yeah. I've got it under control. See you at the next Bat-family reunion.

• Robin : Red fish?

  Batman : A red herring, to be precise, Robin.

  Robin : That means he's just throwing us off the trail.

  Batman : It means more than that. The famed painter Henri Matisse abandoned his brush in favor of paper cutouts for the same reason Quilt has. He's blind.

  Crazy Quilt : Brilliant as always, Batman. Unlike Matisse, however, I was blinded by a prepubescent brat.

  Robin : Quilt, you're a lousy artist and a lousier villain. If you've got the guts to show yourself, I'll gladly take you on alone.

  Crazy Quilt : [a door opens nearby]  Then come and get me, little birdie.

  Batman : Wait, Robin, it's a trick!

  Robin : I can handle whatever this Z-lister's got.

  [dodging Quilt's henchmen, Robin leaps for Quilt, but ends up tackling a mannequin] 

  Batman : Warned you.
