Bruce: Tim, you’re saying--he killed Abattoir? And all this--why didn’t you tell me? I thought I left things in capable hands. But this--
Tim: You couldn’t have done anything. And then you started talking about retiring--
Bruce: I had to know. I left you here as my conscience, Tim. You were supposed to handle any problems.
Tim: But I’m not you. I tried going up against him once and he nearly killed me.

Robin: We worked well as a team, Dick, and when I went back to Gotham and Batman--Jean Paul… I liked the sound of Nightwing and Robin a whole lot better than Batman and Robin.
Batman (Dick): Which only proves the maxim…be careful what you wish for. But, funny thing… After all those years playing Robin to Bruce’s Batman, it wasn’t bad having a Robin at my side.
Robin: And now, here we both are--two Robins playing Batman and Robin.

“Once I put on my working clothes, the unease I felt in the club has gone, replaced by a wave of pure adrenaline… Tonight, the lights of Gotham City are magic. The street noise and subway rumble sound like music to my ears. Nothing’s going to bring me down this evening. I am in my element. Tonight, I am in the zone.”

Tim: I had lots of time to find everything, while waiting for you to show up.
Darla: What can I say? I used to be an early riser, but now I sleep like the dead. Okay, that was bad taste. Lock me up and throw away the key.
Tim: No, it’s fine. It’s just that--I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that you’re alive again.

Nightwing: I’m assuming she doesn’t smell like pipe smoke, right?
Robin: She’s not your type, Dick.
Nightwing: She’s not breathing?
Robin: Ha ha.
Nightwing: Busting. Relax.

“This guy’s not giving up a thing. Not even a grunt. Male, Caucasian, six foot one or two, 180 pounds… Nothing that would help. […] The claws are artificial, you can tell from the sound. The scrape against the rooftop. Ceramic, maybe. Finally! Although it’d be better had he said, “Unf! My name is blah blah blah.” Time to engage. There it is. He’s American, maybe Arkansas. And he sure didn’t like my attitude. He reacts with anger. Emotion. And I’ve had enough of emotion.”
