How’s your wound? Fine.
What’s this supposed to be, Bruce? An open hand.

When were you going to tell me about Barbara? We had to convince the Joker that she was dead.
But after? Well, Afterward she had her own reasons.
You didn’t have to lie to me.
No, I didn’t.
But I kept her secret because that’s what Barbara wanted.
Imagine being where she was.
As far as she was concerned, she did die that night.
I gave her time to find herself.
You seriously think that justifies what you two did?! I can and have made mistakes before.
Is that was Jason is? Just a mistake? When Jason died I almost hung it up.
I was wrong, to try and replace you so soon.
The truth is, you were right to leave and I was upset.
You asking me to forgive you? I don’t expect that.
But I’m not going to be around forever.
