1. You do good work, Mr...
Copy !req
2. What did you say your name was?
Copy !req
3. Nitro, Mr. Daggett,
Copy !req
4. on account of explosives
are my business.
Copy !req
5. I assume Crocker explained
the terms of your employment, Mr. Nitro?
Copy !req
6. Sure. There's an old gas line
running under the whole block.
Copy !req
7. I make it look like
the pipeline ruptured,
Copy !req
8. so the job can't be traced to you.
Copy !req
9. It's to be done while I give my speech
to the Gotham Better Business Council.
Copy !req
10. 9:00 exactly.
Copy !req
11. Trust me, when the hands
on that watch hit nine,
Copy !req
12. boom.
Copy !req
13. As expected, the city zoning board
today rejected a request
Copy !req
14. by the Daggett Development Corporation
to raze a block of landmark brownstones
Copy !req
15. along Gotham's Park Row.
Copy !req
16. Thirty years ago,
Copy !req
17. Park Row was Gotham City's
most glamorous address.
Copy !req
18. But, in recent years,
the area has suffered a decline.
Copy !req
19. And today, it is a slum better known
as the infamous "Crime Alley.”
Copy !req
20. But, to its inhabitants,
Copy !req
21. many of whom
spoke at the zoning board today,
Copy !req
22. Crime Alley is the only home they have,
Copy !req
23. and they fear its loss.
Copy !req
24. Others, like Roland Daggett, director
of the Daggett Development Corporation,
Copy !req
25. see the situation differently.
Copy !req
26. It's tragic.
Copy !req
27. Park Row may be an historical landmark,
Copy !req
28. but it's also a breeding ground
for crime.
Copy !req
29. Of course, as much as we disagree
with the zoning board's decision,
Copy !req
30. our hands are tied.
Copy !req
31. Roland Daggett
is up to something, Alfred.
Copy !req
32. That almost goes without saying,
doesn't it, sir?
Copy !req
33. I don't know what it is yet, but I will.
Copy !req
34. You don't want to be late
for your 8:00 appointment, sir.
Copy !req
35. Have I ever been late?
Copy !req
36. No, sir.
Copy !req
37. Not once in all these years.
Copy !req
38. Help! Help!
Copy !req
39. Help! Somebody help my mommy!
Copy !req
40. Those men in our apartment,
Copy !req
41. they'll hurt her.
Copy !req
42. I climbed out the window.
Copy !req
43. Where?
Copy !req
44. Lady, you and your kid
were told to clear out.
Copy !req
45. You didn't listen.
Copy !req
46. Maybe you'd like to be carried out.
Copy !req
47. No! Please!
Copy !req
48. Yah!
Copy !req
49. Mommy! Mommy!
Copy !req
50. Thank you.
Copy !req
51. What did they mean,
you were warned to clear out?
Copy !req
52. Couple of days ago, these three show up,
Copy !req
53. say they're working
for some corporation.
Copy !req
54. They tell everyone on our block
they got to leave.
Copy !req
55. But, where are we gonna go?
Copy !req
56. He's never been late before.
Copy !req
57. I'd better look for him.
Copy !req
58. Where you off to, Miss Thompkins?
Copy !req
59. Just looking for a friend, Maggie.
Copy !req
60. You be careful.
Copy !req
61. Maggie, I've lived in Park Row
for 30 years.
Copy !req
62. It's my home.
Copy !req
63. I'm not afraid here.
Copy !req
64. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
65. This building is condemned.
Copy !req
66. I saw you on the news.
Copy !req
67. You work for Daggett.
Copy !req
68. Oh, my gracious!
Copy !req
69. I'm looking for Dr. Thompkins.
Copy !req
70. She said
somebody was supposed to meet her.
Copy !req
71. You?
Copy !req
72. Where is she?
Copy !req
73. Leslie went looking for you.
Copy !req
74. I told her to be careful.
Copy !req
75. Bad things happen to people
in Crime Alley.
Copy !req
76. I know.
Copy !req
77. Urban redevelopment, lady.
Copy !req
78. That's what this is all about.
Copy !req
79. Uh, tell me if the rope's too tight.
Copy !req
80. All set. We just gotta do
that old hotel down the street.
Copy !req
81. And then when 9:00 rolls around...
Copy !req
82. Boom! Instant slum clearance.
Copy !req
83. Next stop, mini-mall.
Copy !req
84. You can't destroy that hotel.
Copy !req
85. This block may be abandoned,
Copy !req
86. but that building
has people living in it.
Copy !req
87. Hey, we told them to leave.
Copy !req
88. They stand in the way of redevelopment,
they get bulldozed.
Copy !req
89. Nothing personal. Just business.
Copy !req
90. You're insane.
You won't get away with—
Copy !req
91. Alfred, did Leslie call?
Copy !req
92. No, sir.
Copy !req
93. —Is anything wrong?
—We missed each other.
Copy !req
94. —I'm on my way to her apartment.
—
Copy !req
95. Something's come up, Alfred.
I'll be in touch.
Copy !req
96. Now, you're gonna listen to me!
Copy !req
97. I want justice, Gotham City!
Copy !req
98. Who's the hostage?
Copy !req
99. Some clerk from Daggett Development.
Copy !req
100. Wrong place at the wrong time
with an eviction notice.
Copy !req
101. Ten seconds, we make our move.
Copy !req
102. If you go,
the hostage might be hurt.
Copy !req
103. - I'll do it.
- You'll do it?
Copy !req
104. Who do you think you are?
Copy !req
105. Oh.
Copy !req
106. You took my job, Gotham City!
Copy !req
107. You took my home!
Copy !req
108. Somebody's gotta pay for that!
Copy !req
109. I pick you.
Copy !req
110. Put the gun down!
Copy !req
111. Who said that?
Copy !req
112. Batman!
Copy !req
113. Whoa.
Copy !req
114. So, you're working for Daggett, too?
Copy !req
115. I won't ask twice.
Copy !req
116. Thanks for the help.
Good thing you showed up.
Copy !req
117. Leslie?
Copy !req
118. Poor Doc Thompkins. She's in trouble.
Copy !req
119. What trouble?
Copy !req
120. Uh, nothing.
Copy !req
121. I didn't see them grab her.
I didn't see nothing.
Copy !req
122. What do you mean? Who grabbed her?
Copy !req
123. I don't know! Let go of me! Let go!
Copy !req
124. Where did you get this blasting cap?
Copy !req
125. And where's Dr. Thompkins?
Copy !req
126. Two guys, they grabbed her.
Copy !req
127. She dropped it.
Copy !req
128. I thought I could sell it.
Get a few bucks.
Copy !req
129. Where are they?
Copy !req
130. Corner of Finger and Broom.
Copy !req
131. That's all I know, honest!
Copy !req
132. Ladies and gentlemen,
may I introduce our speaker,
Copy !req
133. a bold force for progress,
Copy !req
134. a man of vision
with the will to execute his dreams,
Copy !req
135. Roland Daggett.
Copy !req
136. —He's hurt!
—He's passed out!
Copy !req
137. Help!
Help!
Copy !req
138. Perfect. Just perfect.
Copy !req
139. —Look out!
—Runaway trolley!
Copy !req
140. Get out of the way!
The trolley's coming!
Copy !req
141. Don't leave us!
Copy !req
142. Oh, my goodness. Thank God.
Copy !req
143. Thank goodness. I was so afraid.
Copy !req
144. Let us out of here!
Copy !req
145. I've never been so scared
in all my life.
Copy !req
146. Hello, Crocker.
Copy !req
147. —Long time no see.
—CROCKER: Batman?
Copy !req
148. What are you doing here?
Copy !req
149. Meeting a friend.
Copy !req
150. What are you doing here, Crocker?
Copy !req
151. No. None of your business.
Copy !req
152. Somebody is trying
to run the people
Copy !req
153. in this neighborhood out of their homes.
Copy !req
154. Your boss, Daggett,
wouldn't know anything about this,
Copy !req
155. would he?
Copy !req
156. No. No, of course not.
Copy !req
157. How about you, Nitro?
Copy !req
158. You told your parole board
you gave up the arson—for-hire game.
Copy !req
159. I did. I'm clean.
Copy !req
160. Really?
Copy !req
161. Then what's this?
Copy !req
162. You crazy? This stuff is dangerous.
Copy !req
163. Talk to me, Nitro.
Copy !req
164. After Daggett lost his appeal
to the zoning board,
Copy !req
165. Crocker hired you to level
this whole neighborhood, didn't he?
Copy !req
166. That's it. That's right. You got it.
Copy !req
167. Don't tell Daggett I talked.
Copy !req
168. Where's Leslie Thompkins?
Copy !req
169. The old lady? In there.
Copy !req
170. Listen, we gotta get out of here.
It's almost 9:00.
Copy !req
171. —
Copy !req
172. Don't worry about me.
Copy !req
173. They're blowing up the old SRO Hotel.
Copy !req
174. You've got to get the people out.
Copy !req
175. Gentlemen,
Copy !req
176. Gotham City is at a crossroads.
Copy !req
177. As businessmen,
the choice we face is clear.
Copy !req
178. It's time we decide where we stand.
Copy !req
179. Are we for progress or against it?
Copy !req
180. For the future or for the past?
Copy !req
181. For the weak or for the strong?
Copy !req
182. In short,
Copy !req
183. we cannot allow
the underclass to hinder us
Copy !req
184. from building a better tomorrow.
Copy !req
185. Mr. Daggett. Mr. Daggett.
Any comments on this tragedy?
Copy !req
186. Does this affect your plans
for redevelopment, Mr. Daggett?
Copy !req
187. It's a sad fact,
Copy !req
188. but you have to expect
violence in Crime Alley.
Copy !req
189. These people don't value
human life like we do.
Copy !req
190. Nobody values human life
like you do, Daggett.
Copy !req
191. I diffused the bomb at the hotel.
Copy !req
192. All your punks managed to destroy
were a few condemned buildings.
Copy !req
193. Once they confess,
Copy !req
194. you're finished.
Copy !req
195. I'm shocked.
Copy !req
196. Shocked to learn that arson
was the cause of this tragedy.
Copy !req
197. Thank heaven the criminals responsible
have been caught.
Copy !req
198. —But, Mr. Daggett, you told us to—
—DAGGETT: Officers,
Copy !req
199. I believe your duty is clear.
Copy !req
200. Excuse me.
Copy !req
201. Let it go.
Copy !req
202. Daggett won't escape the law forever.
Copy !req
203. There's nothing you can do now.
Copy !req
204. And besides,
you have an appointment to keep.
Copy !req
205. This used to be a beautiful street.
Copy !req
206. Good people lived here once.
Copy !req
207. Good people still live in Crime Alley.
