1. boom
Copy !req
2. Sold, ladies and gentlemen,
to Ms. Veronica Vreeland
Copy !req
3. for $200,000.
Copy !req
4. Bored? We've only been here ten minutes.
Copy !req
5. Ten minutes for you, ten hours for me.
Copy !req
6. I know it's for
a good cause, but..
Copy !req
7. And now, ladies and gentlemen,
this magnificent timepiece
Copy !req
8. from the reign of Louis the XVI.
Copy !req
9. Who'll start the bidding
at 400,000?
Copy !req
10. You gotta be kidding.
Copy !req
11. I wouldn't use
that for a doorstop.
Copy !req
12. Right on time, as usual.
Copy !req
13. zap
Copy !req
14. 'I have a bid of 500,000.'
Copy !req
15. 'Do I hear 550?'
Copy !req
16. Good afternoon.
Copy !req
17. Have they sold
the Louis the XVI yet?
Copy !req
18. Uh, no,
the bidding just started.
Copy !req
19. How did you..
Copy !req
20. I gotta see my optometrist.
Copy !req
21. I have a bid of 585,000.
Do I hear six?
Copy !req
22. Come, come, come,
this is a one-of-a-kind item
Copy !req
23. ladies and gentlemen.
Who'll give six?
Copy !req
24. - 'Six hundred thousand.'
- Six hundred thousand?
Copy !req
25. I've heard that time is money,
but this is ridiculous.
Copy !req
26. Like you said, it's for charity.
Copy !req
27. I have $600,000
from Mr. Bruce Wayne.
Copy !req
28. 'Do I hear 650?'
Copy !req
29. 'Need I remind you,
this timepiece'
Copy !req
30. 'was once owned
by Marie-Antoinette.'
Copy !req
31. zap
Copy !req
32. Relax, Dick.
It's almost over.
Copy !req
33. You're not gonna believe this
Copy !req
34. but I thought
I just saw the Clock King.
Copy !req
35. - 'Well, he was there.'
- 'I have 650.'
Copy !req
36. Going, going, gone.
Copy !req
37. zap
Copy !req
38. Blimey!
Copy !req
39. zap
Copy !req
40. A trial run,
and it went like clockwork.
Copy !req
41. Mm, got one.
Copy !req
42. zap
Copy !req
43. I have 650.
Going, going, gone.
Copy !req
44. Blimey!
Copy !req
45. Back up.
Copy !req
46. click
Copy !req
47. 'There! Freeze it.'
Copy !req
48. That must be the hand
everyone talks about.
Copy !req
49. The one that's
quicker than the eye.
Copy !req
50. So, we don't have another
invisible man running loose.
Copy !req
51. Then who could it be?
Copy !req
52. I think it's Temple Fugate,
the Clock King.
Copy !req
53. What makes you think that?
Copy !req
54. Let's just call it a hunch.
Copy !req
55. Better warn Mayor Hill, Jim.
Copy !req
56. I doubt that time has healed
Fugate's wound.
Copy !req
57. 6:15, sir.
Time for breakfast.
Copy !req
58. I've also brought you
your medicine and the timer
Copy !req
59. so you can take your pills
on schedule.
Copy !req
60. You think of everything,
don't you, Harold?
Copy !req
61. It is my job, sir.
Copy !req
62. How goes your research,
if I may ask?
Copy !req
63. Well enough.
Copy !req
64. The iron ball has dropped
Copy !req
65. a mere tenth of a millimeter
Copy !req
66. since the experiment began
last week.
Copy !req
67. An extreme temporal
discontinuity.
Copy !req
68. And the accelerated effect
is just as dramatic.
Copy !req
69. Five minutes ago,
that plant was a seed.
Copy !req
70. Amazing, Dr. Wakati.
Copy !req
71. Why, the possible applications
are mind-boggling.
Copy !req
72. Indeed.
Copy !req
73. We could get rid
of radioactive waste
Copy !req
74. in minutes instead of eons.
Copy !req
75. Put terminally ill people
in stasis until a cure is found.
Copy !req
76. Uh, the question is,
is mankind civilized enough
Copy !req
77. to make the proper use of it?
Copy !req
78. 'You're right, doctor.'
Copy !req
79. It's very important
that this device
Copy !req
80. be kept in the right hands.
Copy !req
81. click
Copy !req
82. I hope you're having
a pleasant evening, Mr. Mayor
Copy !req
83. because it's time for you and me
Copy !req
84. to renew our acquaintance.
Copy !req
85. zap
Copy !req
86. It's going to be
a big ceremony, Jim.
Copy !req
87. Fugate? No, I'm not worried.
Copy !req
88. I've got a platoon of officers
around the building.
Copy !req
89. 'He can't get in the door'
Copy !req
90. 'without bumping
into a blue coat.'
Copy !req
91. He's still on the phone.
Copy !req
92. You really think
our guy will show up?
Copy !req
93. Sure as night follows day.
Copy !req
94. swoosh
Copy !req
95. zap
Copy !req
96. honk honk
Copy !req
97. zap
Copy !req
98. What am I thinking?
Copy !req
99. Tsk, tsk, tsk. Going to be
a nasty fall, dearie.
Copy !req
100. knock knock knock
Copy !req
101. ratatat
Copy !req
102. - What the..
- Ah!
Copy !req
103. I think that's our cue.
Copy !req
104. zap
Copy !req
105. You! How did you get past..
Copy !req
106. Good evening, mayor.
Nice to see you again too.
Copy !req
107. And whose life
are you ruining now?
Copy !req
108. A poor pensioner,
a malnourished orphan perhaps?
Copy !req
109. zap
Copy !req
110. Naughty, naughty.
Copy !req
111. zap
Copy !req
112. What? Where did you..
Copy !req
113. I don't think so.
Copy !req
114. Even if you could
climb the building
Copy !req
115. you won't be leaving
this way, Mr. Mayor.
Copy !req
116. I've waited a long time
for this.
Copy !req
117. Please, Fugate, don't hurt me.
Copy !req
118. If it's any comfort,
my revenge will encompass
Copy !req
119. more than just you
Copy !req
120. I intend to pass
a most timely sentence
Copy !req
121. on the entire judicial system.
Copy !req
122. Get ready.
Copy !req
123. - Ah!
- Ah! My eyes.
Copy !req
124. swoosh
Copy !req
125. Robin, grab the hypo.
Copy !req
126. thud
Copy !req
127. crash
Copy !req
128. Get off me.
Copy !req
129. Huh!
Copy !req
130. 'You clumsy.'
Copy !req
131. Ow! Ooh, ah!
Copy !req
132. You.
Copy !req
133. Hey, you. Stop!
Copy !req
134. - 'Over there.'
- 'Over there. That's him.'
Copy !req
135. Let's get him.
Let's get him.
Copy !req
136. - 'Come on.'
- 'Stop!'
Copy !req
137. - Hold it right there.
- You're under arrest.
Copy !req
138. - Don't move.
- Freeze.
Copy !req
139. zap
Copy !req
140. 'The Batmobile.'
Copy !req
141. Aah.
Copy !req
142. - Hey!
- Where'd he go?
Copy !req
143. - Look out!
- Hey, watch it!
Copy !req
144. It was like a nightmare.
Copy !req
145. First he was here, then there.
Copy !req
146. My heavens,
if you hadn't set that trap.
Copy !req
147. Well, at least
we've got the pieces
Copy !req
148. from Fugate's
broken thingamajig.
Copy !req
149. Maybe we can find out
how he made it.
Copy !req
150. I don't think
Fugate made that device.
Copy !req
151. He's not a scientist.
Copy !req
152. Well, we'll soon
find out who did.
Copy !req
153. All our patrol cars are equipped
with tracking devices.
Copy !req
154. We should be able to run
Fugate down pretty quickly.
Copy !req
155. Harold.
Copy !req
156. Harold.
Copy !req
157. What are you doing in my room?
Copy !req
158. I-I called for you,
but got no answer.
Copy !req
159. I thought something
might be wrong.
Copy !req
160. There is something wrong, old man.
Copy !req
161. Why are you wearing that?
Copy !req
162. I'm afraid I haven't been
altogether candid with you.
Copy !req
163. What, what are you going to do?
Copy !req
164. You'll find out, my good doctor,
all in good time.
Copy !req
165. I want a dragnet
over a five-mile radius.
Copy !req
166. He couldn't have gotten far.
Copy !req
167. With any luck,
time is on our side.
Copy !req
168. You think the police
will find him?
Copy !req
169. 'Doubtful. But I have an idea.'
Copy !req
170. 'With his knowledge
of train schedules'
Copy !req
171. 'he would know when the next
commuter run would pass.'
Copy !req
172. 'It's no accident that he
ditched the car where he did.'
Copy !req
173. 'Only one train passed there
in the last six hours'
Copy !req
174. heading for the mountains.
Copy !req
175. I don't get it.
There's nothing out that way.
Copy !req
176. Nothing except Cranston Estates.
Copy !req
177. 'So you say this guy lives out there?'
Copy !req
178. What's his name,
this Professor Wataki?
Copy !req
179. Wakati. He's the father
of Quantum Temporal Theory.
Copy !req
180. 'The structure of time.'
Copy !req
181. zap
Copy !req
182. 'What's going on?'
Copy !req
183. Fugate's booby-trapped the car.
Copy !req
184. 'We're trapped in time.'
Copy !req
185. What's going on?
Copy !req
186. We've been put in a bubble
of slow time.
Copy !req
187. The outside world is moving
much faster than we are.
Copy !req
188. 'Look.'
Copy !req
189. 'Hours are passing
like minutes.'
Copy !req
190. Why didn't the car's sensors
pick up the booby trap?
Copy !req
191. He probably set it
just a nanosecond or two
Copy !req
192. 'out of phase with reality.'
Copy !req
193. But that's the least
of our problems.
Copy !req
194. E still equals MC squared,
last I heard.
Copy !req
195. 'Mass increases with speed.'
Copy !req
196. 'If a car hits us
while we're frozen like this'
Copy !req
197. we might trigger
an atomic explosion.
Copy !req
198. There it is.
Copy !req
199. Hey!
Copy !req
200. bang
Copy !req
201. crash
Copy !req
202. Nearly as I can figure
Copy !req
203. we've lost almost 48 hours.
Copy !req
204. Then we'd better not waste
any more time.
Copy !req
205. I think
we've found the professor.
Copy !req
206. How do we get him out?
Copy !req
207. Same way we got ourselves out.
Copy !req
208. Don't, Harold.
Copy !req
209. Batman?
Copy !req
210. Just make sure
nobody fiddles with the props.
Copy !req
211. No problem.
Copy !req
212. zap
Copy !req
213. He was the one person in the world I trusted.
Copy !req
214. Is it any wonder
I prefer being a recluse?
Copy !req
215. What else did he say, Dr. Wakati?
Copy !req
216. He was babbling.
Said something about the mayor.
Copy !req
217. About how he was finally
going to get his day in court.
Copy !req
218. Day in court?
Copy !req
219. The new courthouse.
Copy !req
220. The mayor is dedicating it today
at 10 o'clock.
Copy !req
221. That's two minutes from now.
Copy !req
222. We'd better call the cops and—
Copy !req
223. You can't. I have no phones.
Copy !req
224. Your phone won't work, Batman.
This area is a dead zone.
Copy !req
225. 'I chose it
so my experiments would be free'
Copy !req
226. of electromagnetic interference.
Copy !req
227. It'll take at least
a half-hour for us
Copy !req
228. to make it back on the bikes.
Copy !req
229. 'You have 30 seconds to show us how to use these.'
Copy !req
230. swoosh
Copy !req
231. swoosh
Copy !req
232. 'Whoa!'
Copy !req
233. Faster than a speeding bullet.
Copy !req
234. And so, my friends, it is my privilege
Copy !req
235. 'to officially bring Gotham
City's new courthouse to order.'
Copy !req
236. By all means, Mr. Mayor.
Copy !req
237. Usher the new building in
with a bang.
Copy !req
238. This could be dangerous.
Better stand back.
Copy !req
239. Oh, to savor the moment
as long as possible.
Copy !req
240. zap
Copy !req
241. screech
Copy !req
242. No. It can't be.
Copy !req
243. thud
Copy !req
244. Too late. It's triggered.
Copy !req
245. whoosh
Copy !req
246. Slow down.
Copy !req
247. boom
Copy !req
248. Uh, what?
Copy !req
249. crash
Copy !req
250. Looks like time just ran out.
Copy !req
251. It's a shame that you've decided
to keep this device a secret.
Copy !req
252. It would seem that the world
is not quite ready for it yet.
Copy !req
253. Gee, that's too bad for Fugate.
Copy !req
254. I'm sure
he'll wish he had something
Copy !req
255. 'to make the days pass quicker'
Copy !req
256. 'where he's going.'
Copy !req
