The Batman (2004–2008): Season 5, Episode 10 - The End of the Batman - full transcript

The Batman meets his opposite number in the form of the Wrath and his partner Scorn. Includes appearances by Joker, Penguin, Scarface/Ventriloquist and Killer Croc.

I knew I should've splurged for the turbo.

Aah!

Whoa!

I take it those weren't pigeons.

Look.

S? W?

Oh-oh.

They're gone.

Great. Now the guys in hero
suits are shooting at us.

You got them on video?

A city traffic cam recorded their getaway.



Whoa, look at the wheels his sidekick gets.

And last week, when Killer Croc managed to
escape us, he must've had their help too.

That time, they didn't show themselves.
They're getting bolder.

So, what do you think?

Alternate versions of us
from a parallel universe?

Or maybe our
matter-antimatter twins.

You've been reading too many comic books.

You left out video games.

I thought you might
need a reminder.

Bruce and Dick have an appointment
with their friends the Mallorys.

Andy Mallory? Oh....

All right, I'll go.

But I'm not gonna have any fun.

Whoo-hoo!



And where exactly did you leave my brother?

Too slow.

Maybe.

But I got style.

Yee-ha!

Yeah. You fall way
cooler than I do.

Yet you keep trying to impress me.

Come on, you two.

Andy and I both appreciate you guys
lending us this gear for our next climb.

No problem.

Wayne Tech developed it for the military,
but I'd rather it get used for fun.

Here, let me show you
how the zip-line works.

The cable's threaded with titanium.
It's thin, but it can hold a ton.

Hook your harness
to the line, and....

Okay, Dick. Show Andy
how to hook himself in.

Like I'm gonna learn from a loser.

Hey, I was first.

- Out of my way.
- Look out.

Brilliant.

Your fault.

So how to retrieve
a stuck teammate.

I guess I'll see you at fencing next week.

Dick?

Yeah, see you.

Guess they'll be having a "talk."

So will we.

Aw, let it go, big bro.

Look at all the schwag you
scored from your chump friend.

Every little bit helps when
you've got a bat to squash.

Good evening, and welcome
to the first broadcast...

...of the city's newest
lottery sensation.

The Gotham Millionaire Fun Ball.

I can see why you think this might
attract someone's attention.

Let's get right to it and
find out our first number.

Wait.

Wait for me.

Oh, this is awful.

I can't find my ticket.

Ah.

There's the ticket.

Now, that's what I call a winning smile.

What a million-dollar surprise.

Now, I can win the lottery and
scratch off Batman at the-- Huh?

Hey, you stepped on my line.

Take your money, Joker.
We'll handle the Batman.

Who asked you?

Aah!

Aah! Aah. Aah.

W and S.

Wipe-out and Sudden-stop.

That's Wrath and Scorn.

Who are you?
Why are you doing this?

Someone has to stand
up to your kind.

Joker is just trying to make a living,
like anyone else.

Criminals are simple,
Batman. Direct.

Joker doesn't wear a mask.
He shows his face for the world to see.

- Then you won't mind doing the same?
- You first.

Hey, Will, sorry about
missing fencing class.

Suddenly my schedule got jammed.

That's okay, Bruce.

I've got some extra business
to take care of too.

We'll hook up later.

- What's wrong?
- Sometimes our schedules are too similar.

Extra business?

If it were a business,
Joker would cut us in on his take.

All the criminals would.

We're not doing it for money.

We're doing it for them.

Why bother? I don't even remember them.

They'd be proud of you.

They'd be proud of us both
for taking on the Batman.

He's everything they hated.

That, Mom and Dad and I have in common.

It's funny.

Last night, I felt like we knew each other.

- We were so in sync.
- Ugh.

Don't tell me you're
starting to respect him.

Little brother, you've got
nothing to worry about there.

In fact, now that we know we can take him...

...it's time to move on to the next stage.

What's with the club meeting?

Yeah, I ain't no joiner.

Uh, that's true. Mr. Scarface tells
me all the time, he works alone.

This better not be one of
your teamwork schemes, pengy.

I assure you, I had nothing to do with this.

Joker?

Please.

I had no time to clean up,
put out trail mix, grease the trapdoor.

I invited you here.

Oh, it's this one.

You know, I could have
handled Batman myself.

But, no. You had to take
all the fun out of it.

Ah. Now, just a second.

I was thrilled to have this
good fellow's assistance...

...and I vote we hear the man out.

So who are you and
what's your racket?

No racket. I'm just a friend.

One who believes criminals
have it tough enough...

...without having to
deal with that rabid bat.

Scorn and I are just here to even the field.

- What if we don't want your help?
- That's up to you.

But there's a job tonight that
could make you all infinitely rich.

It's too ambitious for any one criminal...

...but with my backup,
you might be able to pull it off.

Engraving plates?

- For printing money?
- Right.

They're being unloaded at the docks tonight.

It's too big a prize not to attract Wrath.

You know, it's kind of creepy how
you're getting into this guy's head.

It's like you and he are the same.

Not in the way that counts.

Who's there?

What?

Nice shot, Mr. Scarface.

Aah!

Shocking.

So, what's left for me to do?

Hey, help me unload this loot.

Oh, good times.

Harbor patrol.

Get out of here.

Titanium cable.

Bruce?

It is you.

We are too much alike.

What's the problem, bird boy?

Too scared to take me head-on?

What's your problem, Scorn-dog?

Too slow to catch me?

Not too bright either.

It's a little like fencing class,
isn't it, old pal?

You know who I am, don't you?

I wish I didn't.

Then you know why I'm going to win.
I'm willing to destroy my enemies.

You just send yours to jail.

Jail will do.

Where's Wrath?

Move it, dummy.

I'm out of here.

Where is he?

He's on speakerphone.

You failed us, friend.

We barely got out of there
with our feathers intact.

I'll make it up to
you and then some.

Because I now know who Batman is.

And I'm going to rid the city
of him once and for all.

Did you hear that, dummy?

That'll be my gift to you.

Let's go.

Next stop, Wayne mansion.

Where's your smile, Joker?

It's the end of the Batman.

Hmm.

I can't believe it.

Will and Andy's parents were
notorious jewel thieves.

Explains the Mallory money.

Eventually, they got caught...

...and were sent to prison around
the same time my parents died.

So, what's our next move?

We pay the Mallory
brothers a visit.

Unless we get to you first.

Aah!

I'm sorry, sir.

He came up behind me as I opened the clock.

It's all right. Just stay
hidden somewhere safe.

Come on out, Dickie bird.

We got a score to settle.

Right behind you, Andrew.

Aah!

I should have known you were Batman, Bruce.

You were always so civic-minded.

It ends here and now.

I destroy this place,
I destroy everything you are.

And then I'll destroy you.

"Somewhere safe," he says.

Gotcha, Dickie.

It's over, Bruce.

You've forgotten home-court advantage.

You have no court left.

You'd be surprised.

Huh? Aah!

You come to our house?

Is it over?

If I go to jail,
I'll tell everyone who you are.

You'll be a target the rest of your life.

But I swear, I'll never tell
a soul if you just let us go.

But that really would
destroy everything I am.

You think I'm kidding, Batman?

You're finished, through.

Hear me? It's over.

Get ready to be famous, Dickie.

So that's it? He tells,
and there's no more Batman?

I'm afraid so.

It was great while it lasted.

Bad night, boys?

Joker. Hurry, uncuff us.

Oh, I'll do better than that.

I'll completely unhinge you.

What? You can't.

We know who he is. We'll tell you.

Batman. He's--

Destroying you is my game.

And I won't have anyone stealing my fun.

So does this mean we're back in business?

I don't think anyone's telling
secrets any time soon.
