• Earl Cooper : I'm gonna miss this place.

  Batman : Only 'til you see the new one I'm setting up for you. But this time, I had my... backers set up dummy corporations to order the parts through, so no one can ever trace you again.

  Earl Cooper : Yeah? Wait 'til you see the new Batmobile. It's gonna have tritium thrusters, dual accelerators, fuel-injected turbo-boosters...

• Earl Cooper : [sees the damaged Batmobile]  You been letting the kid drive again?

  Robin : Ha ha. Actually we were playing chicken with a penguin.

  Batman : Or three of his men.

• Batman : I need a new car.

• Robin : Looks great, Earl.

  Batman : Big job, wasn't it? You look tired.

  Earl Cooper : Yeah. Well, it took longer than I figured. See? Uh, haven't even had time to clean up yet.

  Robin : Where's Marva?

  Earl Cooper : Oh, down in the basement. Got some cleaning to do down there...

  [stressing the words] 

  Earl Cooper : ...in the basement. By the way, I even fixed the air conditioning switch.

  Batman : Uh... right.

• Robin : [the bulletproof Batmobile is shot at]  Is he kidding?

  Batman : Maybe he's new in town.

• Robin : [of Batman's erratic driving]  What are you doing?

  Batman : Nothing. We've been sabotaged.

• Robin : [trapped in the sabotaged Batmobile]  I've got a feeling we're about to take the hard way down.

  Batman : Down? The basement!

  Robin : Huh?

  Batman : Earl. He kept saying "basement." It's a racing term. When drivers crash, they say they've gone down in the basement. He was trying to warn us! The air conditioning switch. He said he fixed it.

  [pressing the button, he and Robin are safely ejected]
