Zatanna Zatara
- Zatanna: Here, pick a card. I'll tell your future.
- [Bruce does]
- Zatanna: Hmm, I see intrigue, danger... two of hearts.
- Bruce Wayne: [looks] Joker.
- Zatanna: Oh, it's a dumb trick anyway!
- Zatanna Zatara: Nice car.
- Batman: Thanks.
- Zatanna Zatara: You know, I didn't love the idea of spending the night in jail, but this does technically make me a fugitive. I believe I'm looking at some prison time now.
- Batman: I heard about the mint robbery. I can help prove you didn't do it.
- Zatanna Zatara: Only another magician would've known how to rig that trick.
- Batman: Or someone who knows their methods. Like Montague Kane.
- Zatanna Zatara: He's been ripping off illusionists for years. I thought I finally had a trick even he couldn't expose. Wrong.
- Batman: I'll settle with Kane. Meantime, I'd better drop you someplace safe.
- Zatanna Zatara: Oh, no. Kane played me for a sap, and I'll see him go down for it.
- Batman: All right. But it could be dangerous. You're sure there's no one you want to call first? Uh, friends, family, a husband, maybe?
- Zatanna Zatara: Me? Who's got time for a relationship when you're pulling rabbits out of a hat 52 weeks a year?
- Zatanna: [Batman rappels down into the mint with Zatanna] This place is surrounded by cops!
- Batman: Just relax.
- Zatanna: [Points to where Batman is looking] That's where the money was.
- [Turns to walk in the opposite direction; broken glass is heard. Batman and Zatanna look at her feet, where there is broken glass and scrape marks on the floor]
- Batman: Look, this line was recently scraped into the floor. Whatever made it left shards of glass too.
- Zatanna: [Examines a piece] That would've been one mighty big piece of glass... Or mirror!
- Batman: Like the one you used to reflect the hologram of the vanished mint.
- Zatanna: Oh, sure, take all the mystery out of life.
- Bruce Wayne: I don't know the future, but I know I'll see you again someday, Zanna.
- Zatanna Zatara: You're the only one who ever calls me Zanna. I really hate it.
- [he turns to leave]
- Zatanna Zatara: No goodbye hug?
- [putting his arms around her]
- Zatanna Zatara: See? It's not so bad.
- Bruce Wayne: I'll write you.
- Zatanna Zatara: No, you won't.
- Bruce Wayne: I promise.
- Zatanna Zatara: You can't. I locked your hands to the wall.
- Bruce Wayne: What?
- Zatanna Zatara: Looks like someone's missing their plane tomorrow. But, hey, if you were any kind of escape artist, you'd be out of those cuffs and through the door by now.
- [seeing he's gone]
- Zatanna Zatara: Now you see him, now you don't.
- Batman: I think the money was stolen before you got here. The thief reflected a hologram of the cash while you did your trick, then quickly hid the mirror when it was over.
- Zatanna Zatara: How'd he get rid of a mirror that big?
- Batman: He didn't. It's still here.
- Zatanna Zatara: Just to clue you in, Monty here makes a living exposing magicians' secrets.
- Dr. Montague Kane: Simple tricks and nonsense.
- Zatanna Zatara: Aha. And I've invited him here to find the secret of the feat I'm attempting tonight.
- Dr. Montague Kane: There is no secret. What you're proposing is flat-out impossible.
- Zatanna Zatara: Well, kids, impossible is what I'm all about. Mr. Fauncewater, open the doors, please.
- [the doors to the mint are opened]
- Zatanna Zatara: $10 million and the means to make it. Take a good look, folks, 'cause you know what they say about money: easy come... easy... go!
- Fauncewater: [in a cloud of smoke, the mint and money vanish into thin air] Oh, my.
- Dr. Montague Kane: Bravo, my dear. It was a pleasure to be proven wrong.
- Zatanna Zatara: Thank you, Monty. And now, just so Irv doesn't have a fit, I'll bring it back, good as new. Arba-de-caraba!
- Fauncewater: [in another cloud of smoke, it returns] The money. Where's the money?
- Zatanna Zatara: "Where's the money", he says. It's right there, isn't it?
- Fauncewater: It's gone! What have you done with it?
- Zatanna Zatara: Now, take it easy, Irv. I'm sure there's a perfectly logical explanation.
- Dr. Montague Kane: And I'm sure the audience would like to hear it... as would the police.
- Dr. Montague Kane: With all reverence for the departed, Zatara himself couldn't escape those locks. Still, between the two of you, you might be able to loosen a few chains before you hit the water.
- Batman: Take my hand.
- Zatanna Zatara: Scared? That makes two of us.
- Batman: Trust me, Zanna.
- Zatanna Zatara: [surprised] Zanna?
- [last lines]
- Zatanna: [voiceover as Batman reads a message] John- I hate goodbyes too. Love, Zanna. P.S. Don't forget to write.
