Hi
I believe the word you're looking for is...
AHHHHHHH!!!
[echo]
Actually, this is all just a bad dream
You're at home in bed
heavily sedated
resting comfortably
dying from the carcinogens you personally spewed in a lifetime of profiteering
tragic irony or poetic justice?
You tell me
My God, it's true
Penguin, the man of the sewer
Hard as it may seem, Max, you and I have something in common
We're both perceived as monsters
But somehow
You're a well-respected monster
And I am, to date,
not.
Frankly, I feel that's a bum rap
I'm a businessman. Tough, yes.
Shrewd, okay...but that does not make me a monster
Don't embarrass yourself, Max.
I know all about you
What you hide, I discover
What you put in your toilet, I place on my mantle. Get the picture?!
What is that supposed to, hypnotize me?
No, just give you a splitting headache
It's not working
Ah, you big baby!
Just blanks. Would I go through all this trouble tonight just to kill ya?
No, Max, I have an entirely other purpose
I'm ready, Max
I've been down here too long
It's time for me to ascend, to re-emerge
With your help
Your know-how
Your savvy
I wasn't born in the sewer, you know?
I come from
[pointing to the surface]
like you.
And like you I want some respect.
A recognition of my basic humanity
but most of all
I want to find out who I am, by finding my parents, learning my human name
Simple stuff that the good people of Gotham take for granted
And
Exactly why am I gonna help you?
Well
Let's start
Oh, ooo, what have we here? Let's see...
Ohhh
A batch of toxic waste from your "clean" textile plant
There's a whole lagoon of this crud in the back
That could have come from anywhere
What about the documents that prove you own half the fire traps in Gotham City?
If there were such documents, that's not an admission. I would have seen to it they were shredded
Argh, ah, good idea
A lot of tape and a little patience make all the difference
By the way
How's Fred Atkins, your old partner, huh?
Fred?
Fred's actually...
I believe he's on extended vacation
He's...he's good
Heeheeheehee, good
Hehehe
Hiya, Max! Remember me?!
I'm Fred's hand!
You wanna greet any other body parts?!
Remember, Max
You flush it, I flaunt it
You know what?
Mr. Penguin
Sir
I think perhaps
I can help orchestrate a little welcome-home scenario for you. Once we're both back home perhaps...
we can help each other out, then.
Hey, you won't regret this, Mr. Shreck
