Chuck Sirianni: Can't fix everything by hitting it.

TV Show: Justice League
Dreamslayer: You think you can defeat me with a bubble?!?
[Dreamslayer uses his flame with more intensity in an attempt to break the bubble, the air runs out with Dreamslayer surrounded by smoke, Lantern dissolves the bubble and watches as Dreamslayer falls on top of a car]]
Green Lantern: It's a really good bubble.

[Shayera is about to get onto an elevator]
Green Lantern: Shayera, I wanted to - [doors open; sees Shayera in an evening gown] Judas Priest!
Shayera: Problem?
Green Lantern: No, no, it's just, uh... I've... never seen you in a dress before.
Shayera: You don't like it?
Green Lantern: It's, uh... fetching.
Shayera: If you want one for Vixen, I can tell you where I got it.
[Both get closer, about to kiss]
Green Lantern: [clears throat] Listen...
[Batman gets on the elevator]
Batman: Glad I caught you before you did something stupid.

TV Show: Justice League
Flash: [After destroying Brainthor's machine, weakly] You lose.
[Brainthor forms two army officers who restrain Flash]
Brainthor: Hardly. Look around you — the Justice League is completely defeated, and so are you. For all your efforts, you have but inconvenienced me, speck. [forms a rifle] But I'm still just human enough to enjoy taking my revenge. Looks like The Question was right all along. I kill you, and then, Armageddon. Right on schedule.
Flash: No! [Breaks free and stands up]
Brainthor: Are you going to fight me, boy?
[Flash pauses, then goes running off in the opposite direction. Brainthor begins rebuilding his tower, when Flash comes in from the other side of the planet and punches him at full speed]
[Flash keeps accelerating, and hits Brainthor again. And again and again and again, again, again... Eventually, Flash stops and starts rapidly punching Brainthor. Thereby, extracting Brainiac from Luthor molecule by molecule]
[Massive explosion ensues. Debris clears revealing... Lex Luthor, sans Braniac laying panting on the ground, the rest of the core seven awaken]
Flash: [Electricity rippling through his body, stumbles forward] I feel kind of... funny. [Fades away.]
Wonder Woman: Flash!
[Superman runs towards the non-existent Flash. The remaining six appear horrified]
Luthor: [smugly] What do you know? I did kill him. [Looks up to see a furious Superman glaring at him.] I was mistaken earlier. I think this is the part where you kill me.
[Superman places Luthor in a choke hold and prepares to incinerate him. Wonder Woman initially attempts to intervene, but Batman stops her]
Superman: I'm not the man who killed President Luthor. Right now, I wish to heaven that I were, but I'm not.<

TV Show: Justice League
Superman: This is the hardest thing I've ever had to say... I'm guilty. We're guilty. Of the sin of hubris. We had the best of intentions, to be Earth's guardians, to keep you safe, but we failed you. We looked down on the world from our tower in the sky, and let our power and responsibility separate us from the very people we were supposed to protect. No one should ever be afraid of us. For that reason, we're decommissioning the Watchtower. The energy weapon up there is already gone; we're taking down the station as well.
Crowd: [Murmurings of disbelief]
Superman: There's more. We want to thank the members of the Justice League for your courageous service, but in the future, you'll all have to act as independent agents. We're not going to be an army anymore. As of right now, we're disbanding the Justice League. This is the end.
[The founding members begin to walk off the stage, but are stopped when Green Arrow speaks]
Green Arrow: Says who? You remember what we did yesterday? We saved the world. Again. You don't think that has any value? Well, think again, pal! The Justice League goes on, with or without you. Look, no one can question your service or commitment to making things better. If you're quitting because you think you've already done your fair share, fine. We'll throw you a parade. But if you're quitting because it's easier than continuing the fight, then you're not the heroes we all thought you were. The world needs the Justice League, and the Justice League needs you, Superman!
[Crowd cheers]

TV Show: Justice League
Batman: Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Green Arrow: Who guards the guardians? We got it covered.

[Daily Planet office; night - Lois is working]
Clark Kent: Working late?
Lois Lane: Hey, Smallville. Finishing up my Justice League story. How many "L"s in "ambivalent"?
Clark Kent: One - is that your take on all this, Lois?
Lois Lane: I've been as tough on the Justice League as anyone - especially on Superman. But that's just because he's always set such a high standard. I'm gonna cut him a break - he's only human... you know what I mean.
Clark Kent: [smiles] Yeah - I do.

TV Show: Justice League
Terry: How could you do it to me, Bruce?!
Bruce: The only thing that matters is the mission. You know that.
Terry: What about people, Bruce? Dick, Barbara, Tim, Selina - they all loved you, but eventually every single one of them left you! Ever wonder why?
Bruce: Not for an instant. They quit because when it came down to it, they didn't have the heart for the mission.

TV Show: Justice League
Amanda Waller: Look at all this. A pill for blood pressure, a pill for my diabetes, a pill to replace my pituitary function. I don't even know what this one's for... oh yeah, Alzheimer's.

TV Show: Justice League
[The League has just been informed that Ace of the Royal Flush Gang has to be stopped, and is presented with a weapon to do it.]
Batman: I'll do it, Shayera. I'm the only one of us Ace knows. She might let me get close enough to use it.
Amanda Waller: Do you understand what you're agreeing to? The only way to stop Ace for certain... is to kill her.

TV Show: Justice League
Bouncing Boy: I know you're a level 12 mega-genius, but you are seriously out of your mind.

TV Show: Justice League
Supergirl: Well?
Green Lantern: Well what?
Supergirl: Aren't you gonna give me notes on how badly I screwed up?
Green Lantern: No notes. There's nothing more I can teach you.

TV Show: Justice League
Brainiac 5: My name is...
Supergirl: Brainiac!
Brainiac 5: That's right, how did you... uh, oh!

[Ace is on a swing set in the middle of her fantasy castle]
Ace: Batman.
Batman: Ace.
Ace: Did you like playing with my new Royal Flush Gang?
Batman: Can't say that I did.
Ace: Yeah. They aren't any fun at all. I gave them their powers and they still hardly ever play with me.
Batman: Can't imagine why.
Ace: When I was little, Cadmus used to make me play all kinds of games, but they weren't any fun either. They'd strap me into their machines and poke wires into my brain - 'Ace, can you move this object with your mind?' [Telekinetically uproots a tree] Yeah, I can move it. They weren't really games you know. [stops swinging] They were training me, turning me into a weapon. 'For justice,' they said. They got their weapon - I got cheated out of my childhood.
Batman: I know what that's like.
Ace: You do, don't you? You don't have to answer; I've read your mind. That's how I knew you weren't going to use Mrs. Waller's weapon on me.
[Batman takes the weapon out of his belt]
Batman: No - I wasn't. [tosses it away]
Ace: You were going to try and talk me into fixing what I've changed...before I die.
Batman: Yes.
Ace: I'm dying very soon.
Batman: Yes...I'm sorry.
Ace: [tears in her eyes] Could you stay with me? I'm scared.
[Batman sits on the swing next to her. He offers Ace his hand and she takes it.]
Amanda Waller: [continuing narration] He sat with her, until her time came.

TV Show: Justice League
Amanda Waller: As you know, I was in charge of Project Cadmus. Over the years I came to respect Batman, even trust him.
Terry: I guess the law of averages means someone had to.
Amanda Waller: I was the government liaison to the Justice League for a few years. I met some extraordinary people in that job, but none of them were the equal of Batman.
Terry: [bitterly] Right, who could be?
Amanda Waller: Not my point. I saw him save the day dozens of times with nothing but his wits, body and will. But I saw something else as the years passed - he was getting older. Slower. Soon he'd have to retire, or more likely someone would finally manage to kill him. The thought of a world without Batman was unacceptable. So, I decided to make a new one. I used my old Cadmus connections to gather the technology necessary for Project: Batman Beyond. Bruce's DNA was easy enough to obtain. He left it all over town. [Terry gives her a look] Not REMOTELY what I meant. [Cut to a shot of Batman being bandaged by a paramedic] Then I found a young Neo-Gotham couple, with psychological profiles nearly identical to those of Bruce's parents. Your father thought he was getting a flu shot; actually it was a nanotech solution programmed to rewrite his reproductive material into an exact copy of Bruce Wayne's. A little over a year later, your mother gave birth to you, a child sharing half her genetic material... and half Bruce's.

TV Show: Justice League
Amanda Waller: But when you're making a Batman, genetics is only part of the story - the rest is tragedy.
[cut to outside a movie theater playing The Grey Ghost Strikes; a young Terry leaves with his parents while Waller narrates]
Amanda Waller: Stop me if you've heard it before - you're eight years old. Your parents have just taken you to a rousing adventure film - a grand time is had by all.
[cut to theater parking lot; the Phantasm waits in the darkness]
Amanda Waller: But unknown to you, a mysterious figure hides in the shadows. My plan was simple - the killer would leap out at you and kill your family. The trauma would put you on the path to becoming Batman. One problem - my assassin wouldn't pull the trigger.
[Phantasm backs off and leaves unnoticed; cut to Phantasm with Waller]
Amanda Waller: I argued with her, but deep down, I knew she was right. People say Batman's obsessive, that he'd do anything to achieve his goals - but he'd never resort to murder. So if I was to honor all he stood for, neither could I.

TV Show: Justice League
Amanda Waller: I've known Bruce Wayne for over fifty years, and I've been keeping an eye on you your whole life. You're not Bruce's clone, you're his son. There are similarities, mind you, but more than a few differences too. You don't quite have his magnificent brain, for instance; you do have his heart though, and for all that fierce exterior I've never met anyone who cared as deeply about his fellow man as Bruce Wayne, except maybe you. You wanna have a better life than the old man's? Tkae care of the people who love you. Or don't. It's your choice.

TV Show: Justice League
Bruce: You're in my chair.
Terry: Yeah, guess I am. [gets up]
Bruce: Where the devil have you been? [sits down]
Terry: I had some stuff to take care of.
Bruce: Enigma's overrated - especially at 3 A.M. You could've called. I made you some soup, but it's cold.
Terry: Sorry - didn't mean to worry you.
Bruce: [Trying to open his medication bottle] I was worried about Gotham. If Batman's not around -
Terry: [Opens bottle for Bruce and holds out the pills] I've got it covered - always.
Bruce: [looks at Terry for a moment and takes the pills] Kent called. Nothing apocalyptic - he just wants your opinion on a case he's working. Said you could meet him at the Metro Tower.
Terry: Right. Better suit up. [heads for Batcave entrance]
Bruce: You should eat something first. Keep up your strength.
Terry: When I get back.
Bruce: You're a stubborn piece of work, you know that?
Terry: Just like my old man.

TV Show: Justice League
Key: Here we are Mr. Luthor. Your benefactor is looking forward to meeting you.
Lex Luthor: Does the mystery man have a name?
Gorilla Grodd: No need to be insulting, Lex - I'm far superior to any man.

TV Show: Justice League
Shayera: Why would you even try to move a prisoner that dangerous without calling us?
Police captain: Maybe because we thought we could do our jobs without help from the mighty Justice League.
Shayera: And yet, here we are.

King Faraday: You guys want some coffee? Apparently I got nothing better to do here.
Superman: Sorry, we got caught up in the work.
King Faraday: Special Agent King Faraday. I'm the new liaison between the Attorney General's office and the Justice League.
Aztek: Good to meet you. I'm -
King Faraday: Aztek. I've been well briefed on all of you.

[Flash is staring at Fire from across the room]
Shayera: Why don't you just go talk to her?
Flash: What, me? Talk to her? No way!
Shayera: Yeah, you'd probably be wasting your time anyway. I hear she's...you know...
Flash: ...
Shayera: Brazilian.
Flash: Ha, ha.
Shayera: If you're afraid to talk to her, I'll tell her for you.
Flash: [Running into her path] Don't!
Shayera: You are so very sad.

TV Show: Justice League
Shayera: Aliens? Well, then he must be a lunatic, because we know there's no life on other planets.
Batman: There's more.
Shayera: What?
Batman: Our Mr. Hall spends quite bit of time on the Internet.
Shayera: Dang, lock him up!
Batman: He frequents the "I Hate Hawkgirl" bulletin boards.
Shayera: That doesn't mean..."boards"? How many are there?
Batman: Fifty-seven. Web rings. Unaffiliated sites number in the hundreds...
Shayera: Forget I asked!

TV Show: Justice League
Green Lantern: You should take backup.
Shayera: [Glares]
Green Lantern: I meant Batman! I - we don't want you walking into a trap.
Shayera: [Picking up Thanagarian dagger] I can take care of myself, thanks.
Batman: The point is-
Shayera: The point is you don't trust me. Either of you.
[Walks to elevator]
Shayera: Don't wait up.

TV Show: Justice League
Carter: The trick is the raised glyphs. If you push them in the right order, they deactivate all the traps down here.
Shayera: And if you get it wrong?
Carter: Well, we're already in a tomb, so that's handy...

TV Show: Justice League
[After Carter reveals that he believes he was "Hawkman" in a previous life.]
Shayera: I'm sorry. I'm not laughing at you... exactly. I just... I've got the worst taste in men.
Carter Hall: I'm serious, Shayera.
Shayera: I know you are. And I'm in a lost Egyptian tomb with my stalker. The worst part is I'm going to have to listen to John and Batman saying "I told you so."

TV Show: Justice League
Shayera: How stupid do you think I am?
Batman: Scale of one to ten?

TV Show: Justice League
Stargirl: She's always "blah, blah, blah, my cousin, blah, blah blah blah, my cousin." Like we don't know who she means. "Check me out, I'm Supergirl!"
Pat Dugan: Ask me, the only thing that matters is we all pulled through.
Stargirl: Shut up, Pat. It wasn't World War III, it was a giant turtle.
Pat Dugan: If I was you, I wouldn't talk behind somebody's back, especially when they got super-hearing.

TV Show: Justice League
Green Lantern: Let's get this over with. Kara, you...
[Supergirl leaps off the battlements into the fray with a sword]
Green Lantern: Fine.

Wonder Woman: Agent Faraday - what are you doing here?
King Faraday: Not smoking. Want some? [offers Wonder Woman gum]
Wonder Woman: No thanks.
King Faraday: I'm here with the Special Security Team - the Vice President is attending. But you know that already, I saw you reading him the riot act earlier.
Wonder Woman: I'm not much of a diplomat.
King Faraday: Don't sell yourself short, lady - you're an international incident waiting to happen. [walks off] By the way, if you raise your voice to the VP again, my men are under orders to shoot you. [he pops his gum and points a finger at her, miming a gun. She holds up an arm, showing that she is wearing her bracelets underneath her business suit.]
