1. Hey!
Copy !req
2. No word then, Master Bruce?
Copy !req
3. None. And I've scoured the entire city.
Copy !req
4. No one has seen either Robin
or Dick Grayson for two days.
Copy !req
5. I really should remain
upstairs then, sir.
Copy !req
6. Lest he call.
Copy !req
7. Oh, by the way, this came for you
an hour ago by messenger.
Copy !req
8. No. It can't be.
Copy !req
9. So.
Copy !req
10. They know your identity, detective.
Copy !req
11. Who are you? How did you get in here?
Copy !req
12. You must forgive Ubu, detective.
He is well-trained.
Copy !req
13. Allow me to introduce myself.
I am he who is called Ra's al Ghul.
Copy !req
14. The Demon's Head.
I thought you were only a legend.
Copy !req
15. I am quite real.
Copy !req
16. And as I am sure you realize by now,
Copy !req
17. my reputation for resourcefulness
is well-deserved.
Copy !req
18. As you can see,
we have a common problem.
Copy !req
19. Your ward was abducted
on the same night as my daughter.
Copy !req
20. You do remember my daughter?
Copy !req
21. —You're Talia's father?
- Yes.
Copy !req
22. But surely you would not expect her
to mention me by name.
Copy !req
23. Keep your distance! I am merely old.
Copy !req
24. Older, perhaps, than you can imagine.
Copy !req
25. But not so old that I cannot
assist you in your search.
Copy !req
26. I get the message. Okay, then.
For openers, look at the blade.
Copy !req
27. It's used by a cult of mercenaries
based in Calcutta.
Copy !req
28. Even the rope appears to be made
of a hemp indigenous to that area.
Copy !req
29. Well done, detective.
Copy !req
30. You are worthy of your reputation.
To India, then.
Copy !req
31. Come, I have an aircraft waiting.
Copy !req
32. Infidel!
Copy !req
33. RA'S: Forgive my servant.
Copy !req
34. He feels that no one should precede me.
Copy !req
35. Call it overzealousness.
Copy !req
36. I think I'll call it strike one.
Copy !req
37. You still have me at a loss,
Ra's al Ghul.
Copy !req
38. Just how did you learn who I am?
Copy !req
39. I control a vast
global organization, detective.
Copy !req
40. Obviously, Batman's activities
require certain costly implements.
Copy !req
41. It was a simple matter for my people
to learn which wealthy Americans
Copy !req
42. were amassing what Batman might require.
Copy !req
43. The one who matched my daughter's
description of you was Bruce Wayne.
Copy !req
44. Next time I'll have to glue my mask on.
Copy !req
45. Do you need help?
Copy !req
46. I need nothing.
Copy !req
47. As Napoleon told me,
a strong will can fuel a frail physique.
Copy !req
48. How can you be certain, detective,
that those we seek are to be found here?
Copy !req
49. I make it my business to know
things like that. Here.
Copy !req
50. There's an incense shop.
Copy !req
51. Infidel!
Copy !req
52. —
—
Copy !req
53. Okay. That's two.
Copy !req
54. Yes.
Copy !req
55. No!
Copy !req
56. Yes. Unless you tell me how to find
the mercenaries who did this.
Copy !req
57. They have fled with the boy
and the woman.
Copy !req
58. Where?
Copy !req
59. To Malaysia. In a pagoda
in the shadow of Mount Merapi.
Copy !req
60. I know nothing more, I swear it!
Copy !req
61. Look at it, detective,
one of the last of the rain forests.
Copy !req
62. The world depends upon its oxygen,
Copy !req
63. yet the rich see only
profit in its destruction.
Copy !req
64. You who belong to the overclass
have much to answer for.
Copy !req
65. Bruce Wayne donates millions of dollars
a year to preserve these forests.
Copy !req
66. RA'S: Which are being depleted
at the rate of 120,000 acres a day.
Copy !req
67. Does your money solve this problem? No.
Copy !req
68. It will take more than wealth,
it will take power.
Copy !req
69. And, I fear, ruthlessness.
Copy !req
70. Humankind must be forced to serve
the planet instead of its own appetites.
Copy !req
71. And you're the one
who'll do the forcing?
Copy !req
72. I am qualified, yes.
Copy !req
73. But I may not have sufficient lifetimes
left to me.
Copy !req
74. Master, ahead. Look!
Copy !req
75. RA'S: In the shadow of the volcano,
just as the Indian said.
Copy !req
76. Let us hurry.
Copy !req
77. The next piece of
our puzzle surely waits within.
Copy !req
78. Sweet dreams, tabby.
Copy !req
79. Congratulations, detective,
on thwarting our tormentors.
Copy !req
80. Obviously, our quest was meant
to end here.
Copy !req
81. Maybe, maybe not. Look at this.
A map of the Himalayas.
Copy !req
82. There's a faint scratch,
Copy !req
83. almost certainly made by
a fingernail tracing a route.
Copy !req
84. Indeed. I am familiar with that area,
Copy !req
85. and the nearest field large enough
to accommodate my aircraft
Copy !req
86. is 100 miles from our destination.
Copy !req
87. So I will arrange for a helicopter
when one is needed.
Copy !req
88. After you.
Copy !req
89. Hmm.
Copy !req
90. Hmm.
Copy !req
91. RA'S: The mountain in question
is directly ahead.
Copy !req
92. I've radioed for my men.
They await me on the mountaintop.
Copy !req
93. —While I descend the hard way.
- You must search for clues.
Copy !req
94. If we perceive any danger,
we can signal you with—
Copy !req
95. Master, we must get you
to one of the pits.
Copy !req
96. —Pits?
—Ignore him, detective.
Copy !req
97. We must stay on the hunt
for the sake of the children.
Copy !req
98. All right. If that's the way
it's to be played.
Copy !req
99. —Robin.
—Huh?
Copy !req
100. —Batman!
—You okay?
Copy !req
101. Am I glad to see you.
Copy !req
102. I'll have you free in a minute.
Copy !req
103. —Been here long?
—A couple days, I think.
Copy !req
104. I still don't know who grabbed me.
Copy !req
105. I do.
Copy !req
106. Ra's al Ghul.
Copy !req
107. Obviously, your little accident
wasn't fatal.
Copy !req
108. I imagine you and Ubu left the chopper
when I wasn't looking.
Copy !req
109. Indeed. At the moment it exploded,
it was proceeding on automatic pilot.
Copy !req
110. So how long have you known, detective,
Copy !req
111. that I planned your ward's capture?
Copy !req
112. Almost from the beginning.
Copy !req
113. How could you have known
that Robin and your daughter
Copy !req
114. were abducted on the same night?
Copy !req
115. Unless I had done the abducting?
Copy !req
116. Exactly.
Copy !req
117. And do you think I'd have let you
take me anywhere in your plane
Copy !req
118. unless I suspected
you meant to lead me somewhere?
Copy !req
119. For one thing, there were
all those would-be assassins.
Copy !req
120. They knew where we'd be and when.
Copy !req
121. Someone had to be tipping them off.
That someone had to be you.
Copy !req
122. Then there was Ubu.
Always by his master's side,
Copy !req
123. always very picky about letting you
go ahead of everyone else.
Copy !req
124. Except in Malaysia, where you knew
there was danger waiting.
Copy !req
125. I am deeply impressed.
Copy !req
126. As am.
Copy !req
127. Ready to go?
Copy !req
128. Well, if you say so.
Copy !req
129. Though it was just starting
to get interesting.
Copy !req
130. The master gave you
no permission to leave.
Copy !req
131. I didn't ask for any.
Copy !req
132. And that's three.
Copy !req
133. Wait. I can't let you leave like this.
My father meant you no harm.
Copy !req
134. —He had a funny way of showing it.
—RA'S: My time is short.
Copy !req
135. I have no sons.
Copy !req
136. I need a man to assume my position
when I am gone.
Copy !req
137. Then it was a test? But why me?
Copy !req
138. Because you are most worthy.
That is now proven beyond any doubt.
Copy !req
139. And because my precious daughter
loves you.
Copy !req
140. Forget it.
Copy !req
141. Then this means we must be enemies!
Copy !req
142. You will regret this insult, detective.
Copy !req
143. You will——
Copy !req
144. Father!
Copy !req
145. —He's dying!
—I've had it with your little games.
Copy !req
146. No game, I swear it!
Copy !req
147. Pulse is bad. He can't fake that.
Copy !req
148. We must take him to the Lazarus Pit.
Copy !req
149. You want us to put him in that?
You're crazy!
Copy !req
150. No, listen to me,
I know it is difficult to believe,
Copy !req
151. but the pit is what keeps him alive.
What has kept him alive for 600 years.
Copy !req
152. —Batman?
—Please, you must believe me!
Copy !req
153. We have no choice.
He's stopped breathing.
Copy !req
154. We've killed him.
Copy !req
155. No. All is well.
Copy !req
156. Put her down!
Copy !req
157. I said put her down!
Copy !req
