- Superman: How are you feeling?
- Bruce Wayne: Better. The nanites are dissolving away on their own.
- Tim Drake: I guess with that Brainiac guy toasted, they just knew to self-destruct.
- Superman: I'd check your computer systems anyway. Brainiac has a way of leaving a little of himself behind.
- [after Superman, disguised as Batman, meets with Commissioner Gordon, a policewoman turns to Gordon]
- Policewoman: Does he look bigger to you?
- [last lines]
- Bruce Wayne: I hear the city's been busy.
- Superman: Nothing the kid couldn't handle. I've got to say, for a guy who's supposed to be such a loner, you sure know how to pick a partner.
- Robin: [to Superman, pointing to a video image of Bruce Wayne] See what I mean about him acting strange? He's *smiling*!
- The Mad Hatter: [examining mind-controlling nanites under a microscope] I'll tell thee everything I can; there's little to relate. These little fishers, I perceive, may have no earthly mate.
- Superman: [disguised as Batman] "No earthly mate?"
- Robin: The bugs aren't yours?
- The Mad Hatter: Mine, no! I'd be proud if they were. I've stolen from the best: WayneTech, LexCorp, S.T.A.R. Labs. This circuitry is far more advanced than anything I've ever seen. I daresay it may even be of ALIEN origin.
- [trying to evade Superman by riding her rocket into a tunnel, Roxy Rocket finds him waiting for her at the other end]
- Roxy Rocket: [admiringly] What-a-body.
- Superman: It'll hurt you a lot more than me.
- Roxy Rocket: I'll risk it! Will you?
- Superman: So you're the famous Roxy Rocket.
- Roxanne Sutton: You're as smart as you are handsome.
- Superman: I didn't think you were foolish enough to make trouble in my town.
- Roxanne Sutton: Well, with Batman missing, the other crooks in Gotham are picking the city clean. I thought I'd try my luck here.
- Superman: Back up. What do you mean, "Batman missing?"
- Roxanne Sutton: I thought you'd know. Don't all you spandex boys have club meetings or something?
- Superman: We're not exactly friends.
- Roxanne Sutton: Aw. I'll be your friend.
- Superman: Sorry, little girl. You're going home.
- [Thieves smash through the display case to grab diamonds]
- Diamond Thief #1: What about the alarm?
- Diamond Thief #2: The cops are swamped, and the Bat's a no-show. Who's gonna come?
- [baseball hits him in the gut]
- Diamond Thief #2: Oof!
- Robin: [perched on a baseball display nearby] There's always the relief pitcher.
- Diamond Thief #2: Smoke 'im!
- [Bane, Riddler, and Mad Hatter are surprised by Batman's sudden display of incredible strength, unaware he's Superman in disguise]
- Robin: He's been working out.
- [Superman, disguised as Batman, and Robin meet with Commissioner Gordon, who tells them about a heist]
- Commissioner James Gordon: We've got a photo.
- [he hands it to Superman, who studies it without recognition]
- Robin: [whispering] Bane!
- Superman: [feigning recognition] Ah, yes. Bane.
- Bane: By combining our talents, we will rule Gotham City. Anyone we wish to imprison, you, Riddler, will entrap. Any from whom we require allegiance, you, Hatter, will control. And any that stand in our way, I will break!
- The Riddler: I've always wanted to team muscle with my mind, and any chance to test my new puzzles, of course.
- Bane: [to Mad Hatter] And you, my friend. Are you in?
- The Mad Hatter: Tweedle-Bane, and Tweedle-Brain? If it's all the same, I'll play your game.
- Bruce Wayne: Everybody's gone. We're alone.
- [Brainiac emerges from another room]
- Brainiac: Well done, Mr. Wayne.
- [Superman, disguised as Batman, is watching from hiding]
- Superman: Brainiac...
- [after meeting with Commissioner Gordon, Superman, disguised as Batman, and Robin walk to the edge of the roof]
- Robin: That was close.
- [pulls out his grapple gun]
- Superman: You're telling me. The sooner we find your boss, the better.
- [Superman gropes through Batman's utility belt, searching for his grapple gun]
- Robin: Right side.
- [They fire their grapple lines and swing away]
- Superman: [Bruce is missing] So he tells you he's at work, and he tells work he's on vacation. Can you track where the call came from?
- Robin: Already did. New Zealand.
- Superman: So either Bruce is hopping around the globe...
- Robin: Or someone's faking the traces to hide where he is.
- Superman: Maybe something here will tell us where he really went.
- [picking up a sheet of paper]
- Superman: That's strange. Something's moving on these papers. Nanites.
- Robin: I don't see anything.
- Superman: They're microscopic robots.
- [picking up the receiver of Bruce's phone]
- Superman: They're all over the phone. And there's a needle in the earpiece. Someone's injected nanites into Bruce's body. He's under some kind of mind control.
- The Penguin: Even if I did know where to find the Mad Hatter, I'm no stool pigeon. Why should I tell you?
- Superman: [as Batman] A man's life is in danger. Isn't that enough?
- The Penguin: [indifferently] You're breaking my heart.
- Robin: [quietly] Kick over the desk.
- [Superman glances at him]
- Robin: Just do it!
- Superman: [doing so] I won't ask twice.
- The Penguin: All right, no need to get your feathers ruffled. It happens our capped compadre is attending a meeting of notable ne'er-do-wells. They're hatching a plot to capitalize on your purported disappearance.
- Superman: [picking him up] *Where*?
- Robin: Now he's getting it.
- [Robin and Superman, disguised as Batman, burst in on Bane, Riddler, and Mad Hatter]
- Robin: Sorry to bust in, but we couldn't WAIT to spoil your fun!
- Bane: On the contrary. I feared you were gone forever, Batman. And that would have meant I'd never feel your spine crumble in my hands.
- [activates Venom injection gauntlet, increasing his muscle mass and strength]
- Robin: He called me. Said he'd be away on business and I shouldn't worry. But he was weird. He wasn't himself. And he wouldn't just bail like this without telling Batgirl or Nightwing to fill in.
- Superman: What do they think's going on?
- Robin: Batgirl traced the phone call to Romania. They went over there to find some old guy who might've kidnapped him. Ghoul something.
- Superman: How are you feeling?
- Bruce Wayne: Better. The nanites are dissolving away on their own.
- Tim Drake: I guess with that Brainiac guy toasted, they just knew to self-destruct.
- Superman: I'd check your computer systems anyway. Brainiac has a way of leaving a little of himself behind.
- Brainiac: I suspected that we might meet, Batman.
- Superman: [as Batman] You got into Wayne's computers during his partnership with LexCorp.
- Brainiac: Yes.
- Superman: You saw that his company could build you a rocket, so you took control of Bruce Wayne and had him authorize the project.
- Brainiac: You're every bit the detective that your followers on the Internet believe.
- Superman: I also know how you work: collect a planet's knowledge, then destroy it. I can't allow you to leave.
- Brainiac: What you allow does not concern me. While your deductive skills are impressive, you are still only human.
