Batman Begins Page #6

...l'm flesh and blood,

l can be ignored, destroyed.

But as a symbol...

As a symbol, l can be incorruptible.

- l can be everlasting.

- What symbol?

Something elemental...

...something terrifying.

l assume that as you take on

the underworld...

...this symbol is a persona to protect

those you care about from reprisals?

You're thinking about Rachel?

Actually, sir, l was thinking of myself.

Have you told anyone l'm coming back?

l couldn't figure the legal ramifications

of bringing you back from the dead.

- Dead?

- You've been gone seven years.

You had me declared dead?

Actually, it was Mr. Earle.

He's taking the company public.

He wanted to liquidate

your majority shareholding.

Those shares are worth

quite a bit of money.

Well, it's a good thing

l left everything to you, then.

Quite so, sir.

And you can borrow the Rolls, if you like.

Just bring it back with a full tank.

ln my opinion, Mr. Zsaz is as much

a danger to himself as to others...

...and prison is probably not the best

environment for his rehabilitation.

- Dr. Crane.

- Miss Dawes.

You think a man who butchers people

for the mob doesn't belong in jail?

I think you should check

with Miss Dawes here...

...just what implications your office

has authorized her to make. lf any.

- What are you doing?

- What are you doing, Carl?

Looking out for you.

Falcone has half the city

bought and paid for.

- Drop it.

- How can you say that?

Because as much as l care about

getting Falcone, l care more about you.

That's sweet.

We've been through all that.

Blessed bat again, sir.

They nest somewhere in the grounds.

No more favors.

Someone is sniffing around.

Hey, l scratch your back,

you scratch mine, doc.

l'm bringing in the shipments.

We are paying you for that.

Maybe money isn't as interesting

to me as favors.

l am more than aware that you are

not intimidated by me, Mr. Falcone.

But you know who l'm working for,

and when he gets here...

He... He's coming to Gotham?

Yes, he is.

And when he gets here,

he's not going to wanna hear...

...that you've endangered our operation

just to get your thugs out of jail time.

- Who's bothering you?

- There's a girl at the DA's office.

- We'll buy her off.

- Not this one.

ldealist, huh?

- l don't want to know.
