WHAT A TANGLED WEB WE WEAVE... WHEN FIRST WE LABOUR TO DECEIVE... A LITTLE BANESPEARE FOR YOU, GOTHAM. A LITTLE BANESPEARE. HITTING BATMAN IN THE SPINE WAS... A LITTLE FOREPLAY, IF YOU DON'T MIND. HAVING A LITTLE FUN FOR MYSELF.
LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, BATMAN; IF THE WINTER OLYMPICS HAD A GOLD MEDAL FOR CLUBBING SEALS... I WOULD WIN THAT GOLD MEDAL. NOW, WHAT I AM TRYING TO TELL THE BATMAN AND WHAT I AM TRYING TO TELL YOU, GOTHAM, IS THAT ALL OF MY LIFE... I HAVE BEEN ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE FENCE, THE DARKNESS. HE SAYS HE'S FROM THE DARKNESS? NO.
YOU'RE NOT QUITE THERE BUDDY, YOU'VE NEVER WALKED THE LINE THAT I HAVE, YOU NEVER RODE THAT RAZOR'S EDGE.
WHAT I'M TRYING TO TELL YOU BATMAN IS I'VE WALKED WITH DARKNESS HAND IN HAND, DAY BY DAY, WE'VE ALWAYS BEEN VERY CLOSE. AND ANYBODY WHO TRIES TO RUN, THEN AN ANONYMOUS GOTHAMITE, AN UNSUNG HERO... JUST LIKE THOSE POOR, HELPLESS LITTLE SEALS, THAT FLOUNDER ON THE ICE... WILL DETONATE THE HAMMER THAT WILL CRUSH YOUR STINKING SCULL! IT'S THAT SIMPLE.
NOW, AFTER YOUR SCULL IS CRUSHED, I'M GONNA TAKE YOU AND THAT GEEK ROBIN AND PUT BOTH OF YOU... (BOTH OF YOU)... ON THAT FUNERAL PYRE.. THEN LIGHT A FIRE... THAT WILL RISE... AND THEN I'LL TAKE THIS HAND.. AND PUT IT ON THAT LEVER.. THAT SWEET LEVER.. THE ONE THAT TURNS UP THE GAS... AND ROAST THE BOTH OF YOU BROTHER! AND THEN... I WILL SEND BOTH OF YOU... TO THAT LOVELY PLACE... YOU CALL... DARKNESS.
