Wendie Malick: Dr. Price

Quotes 

• Dr. Price : The fuel cell has a design flaw.

  Batman : Like...?

  Dr. Price : A breach in the vehicle's reactor.

  Batman : Reactor? As in nuclear? But that's been illegal for years. It could take out half the city.

  Dr. Price : Don't you think I know that? But how was I supposed to make something state-of-the-art on the pitiful budget the government gave me? How? Look, we need to find those dregs, and you said you could help.

  Batman : [seeing something outside]  I'd start down there.

• Dr. Price : Did you kill the reactor?

  Batman : No. They got away. You built some ship, lady.

  Dr. Price : You have to stop them.

  Batman : You'll be okay?

  Dr. Price : In another few minutes, it won't matter. Now go!

• Batman : If we hit 'em, the reactor will blow up.

  Dr. Price : No, it's shielded from impact. But right after the crash, you're gonna have to use this key to deactivate it.

  Batman : Uh, hello? I don't think I'm gonna be in any condition to...

  Dr. Price : Yes, you will.

  [she presses a button, and his seat is ejected from the ship] 

• Batman : Who are you? What's going on?

  Dr. Price : That's classified.

  Batman : Government stuff, huh? That's what I figured.

  Dr. Price : You don't know anything.

  Batman : [she starts to close the canopy]  I know who jacked your ride.

  Dr. Price : [opening it back up]  Who?

  Batman : Give me a lift. I want 'em as bad as you do.

  Dr. Price : No deals.

  Batman : They're Jokerz.

  Dr. Price : Madmen.

  Batman : No. Kids. You're gonna have to think like they do. Can you?

  [she opens the canopy to the back seat] 

• Batman : What are you doing?

  Dr. Price : Stopping them.

  Coe : Better turn, Scab. You better turn.

  Scab : She wants to play chicken. That's a game I always win.

• Dr. Price : I'm addressing whoever stole the experimental vehicle.

  Scab : That'd be me.

  Dr. Price : Who are you?

  Scab : Who are you? You sound hot. Are you hot?

  Dr. Price : Listen to me. That vehicle is government property. You have to return it now.

  Scab : Typical babe. Ain't even met you and you're already giving me orders.

• Dr. Price : Having fun with the new toy?

  Pilot : Heh. You built us a winner, Doc. Wish I had one of these in the last war.

  Dr. Price : I'm sure there'll be another soon enough. Now how 'bout some numbers?

  Pilot : R and B pressure, 20, 40 psi. Excel pressure: 1104... fuel temp: 280... air speed...

  Dr. Price : Did you say 280?

  Pilot : Roger. 2-8-0. That a problem?

  Dr. Price : Get out. Get out right now.

  Pilot : You saying you want us to just leave it?

  Dr. Price : Yes. My team will be along for it in five minutes.

  Pilot : But...

  Dr. Price : Land right now and get as far away from the vehicle as fast as you can.

• Batman : They're Ts, another gang. Been fighting with the Jokerz for years.

  Dr. Price : That doesn't mean they deserved this. It's all because of me. And it's only gonna get worse.

• Batman : Nice plane. Not quite as nice as the Jokerz', though.

  Dr. Price : Thanks. I built it.

  Batman : Then you should've kept a better eye on it.

  Dr. Price : I ordered the pilots to abort.

  Batman : Why?

  Dr. Price : Not your problem.

  Batman : You want me to help you or not?

• Dr. Price : You all right?

  Batman : Nothing a few transplants won't cure, but...

  Dr. Price : Good enough.
