1. Sold, ladies and gentlemen,
to Ms. Veronica Vreeland for $200,000.
Copy !req
2. Bored? We've only been
here 10 minutes.
Copy !req
3. Ten minutes for you,
10 hours for me.
Copy !req
4. I know it's for a good cause, but...
Copy !req
5. And now, ladies and gentlemen,
this magnificent timepiece
Copy !req
6. from the reign of Louis XVI.
Copy !req
7. Who will start the bidding at $400,000?
Copy !req
8. You've gotta be kidding.
I wouldn't use that for a doorstop.
Copy !req
9. Right on time, as usual.
Copy !req
10. I have a bid of $500,000.
Do I hear $550,000?
Copy !req
11. Good afternoon.
Copy !req
12. Have they sold the Louis XVI yet?
Copy !req
13. No, the bidding just started.
Copy !req
14. How did you...
Copy !req
15. I gotta see my optometrist.
Copy !req
16. I have a bid of $585,000. Do I hear six?
Copy !req
17. Come, come. This is a one-of-a-kind item
ladies and gentlemen. Who'll give six?
Copy !req
18. Six hundred thousand.
Copy !req
19. Six hundred thousand?
Copy !req
20. I've heard that time is money,
but this is ridiculous.
Copy !req
21. Like you said, it's for charity.
Copy !req
22. I have $600,000 from Mr. Bruce Wayne.
Do I hear $650,000?
Copy !req
23. Need I remind you, this timepiece
was once owned by Marie Antoinette.
Copy !req
24. Relax, Dick. It's almost over.
Copy !req
25. You're not gonna believe this,
but I thought I just saw the Clock King.
Copy !req
26. Well, he was there.
Copy !req
27. I have $650,000. Going, going, gone.
Copy !req
28. Blimey!
Copy !req
29. A trial run, and it went like clockwork.
Copy !req
30. Hmm. Got one.
Copy !req
31. I have $650,000. Going, going, gone.
Copy !req
32. Blimey!
Copy !req
33. Back up.
Copy !req
34. There. Freeze it.
Copy !req
35. That must be the hand
everyone talks about.
Copy !req
36. The one that's quicker than the eye.
Copy !req
37. So we don't have
another invisible man running loose.
Copy !req
38. Then who could it be?
Copy !req
39. I think it's Temple Fugate,
the Clock King.
Copy !req
40. What makes you think that?
Copy !req
41. Let's just call it a hunch.
Copy !req
42. Better warn Mayor Hill, Jim.
Copy !req
43. I doubt that time has healed
Fugate's wound.
Copy !req
44. 6:15, sir. Time for breakfast.
Copy !req
45. I've also brought you your medicine
and the timer
Copy !req
46. so you can take your pills on schedule.
Copy !req
47. You think of everything,
don't you, Harold?
Copy !req
48. It is my job, sir.
Copy !req
49. How goes your research, if I may ask?
Copy !req
50. Well enough.
Copy !req
51. The iron ball has dropped
a mere tenth of a millimeter
Copy !req
52. since the experiment began last week.
Copy !req
53. An extreme temporal discontinuity.
Copy !req
54. And the accelerated effect
is just as dramatic.
Copy !req
55. Five minutes ago, that plant was a seed.
Copy !req
56. Amazing, Dr. Wakati.
Copy !req
57. Why, the possible applications
are mind-boggling.
Copy !req
58. Indeed.
Copy !req
59. We could get rid of radioactive waste
in minutes instead of eons
Copy !req
60. put terminally ill people in stasis
until a cure is found.
Copy !req
61. The question is, is mankind civilized
enough to make the proper use of it?
Copy !req
62. You're right, Doctor.
Copy !req
63. It's very important that this device
be kept in the right hands.
Copy !req
64. I hope you're having
a pleasant evening, Mr. Mayor,
Copy !req
65. because it's time for you and me
to renew our acquaintance.
Copy !req
66. It's going to be a big ceremony, Jim.
Copy !req
67. Fugate? No, I'm not worried.
Copy !req
68. I've got a platoon of officers
around the building.
Copy !req
69. He can't get in the door
without bumping into a blue coat.
Copy !req
70. He's still on the phone.
You really think our guy will show up?
Copy !req
71. Sure as night follows day.
Copy !req
72. What am I thinking?
Copy !req
73. Going to be a nasty fall, dearie.
Copy !req
74. - What the...
Copy !req
75. Ah!
Copy !req
76. I think that's our cue.
Copy !req
77. You! How did you get past—
Copy !req
78. Good evening, Mayor.
Copy !req
79. Nice to see you again too.
Copy !req
80. And whose life are you ruining now?
Copy !req
81. A poor pensioner,
Copy !req
82. a malnourished orphan perhaps?
Copy !req
83. Naughty, naughty.
Copy !req
84. What?
Copy !req
85. Where did you...
Copy !req
86. I don't think so.
Copy !req
87. Even if you could climb the building,
Copy !req
88. you won't be leaving this way,
Mr. Mayor.
Copy !req
89. I've waited a long time for this.
Copy !req
90. Please, Fugate, don't hurt me.
Copy !req
91. If it's any comfort, my revenge
will encompass more than just you.
Copy !req
92. I intend to pass a most timely sentence
on the entire judicial system.
Copy !req
93. Get ready.
Copy !req
94. My eyes!
Copy !req
95. Robin. Grab the hypo.
Copy !req
96. Get off me.
Copy !req
97. What?
Copy !req
98. You clumsy...
Copy !req
99. You...
Copy !req
100. Hey, you. Stop!
Copy !req
101. Look. Over there. That's him.
Let's get him.
Copy !req
102. - Come on.
- Stop.
Copy !req
103. - Hold it right there.
- You're under arrest.
Copy !req
104. - Don't move.
- Freeze.
Copy !req
105. The Batmobile.
Copy !req
106. Ah!
Copy !req
107. - Hey!
- Where'd he go?
Copy !req
108. - Look out.
- Hey, watch it.
Copy !req
109. It was like a nightmare.
Copy !req
110. First he was here, then there.
Copy !req
111. My heavens.
If you hadn't set that trap...
Copy !req
112. Well, at least we've got the pieces
from Fugate's broken thingamajig.
Copy !req
113. Maybe we can find out how he made it.
Copy !req
114. I don't think Fugate made that device.
Copy !req
115. He's not a scientist.
Copy !req
116. Well, we'll soon find out who did.
Copy !req
117. All our patrol cars are equipped
with tracking devices.
Copy !req
118. We should be able
to run Fugate down pretty quickly.
Copy !req
119. Harold.
Copy !req
120. What are you doing in my room?
Copy !req
121. I called for you but got no answer.
Copy !req
122. I thought something might be wrong.
Copy !req
123. There is something wrong, old man.
Copy !req
124. Why are you wearing that?
Copy !req
125. I'm afraid I haven't been
altogether candid with you.
Copy !req
126. What... What are you going to do?
Copy !req
127. You'll find out, my good doctor,
all in good time.
Copy !req
128. I want a dragnet over
a five-mile radius.
Copy !req
129. He couldn't have gotten far.
With any luck, time is on our side.
Copy !req
130. You think the police will find him?
Copy !req
131. Doubtful, but I have an idea.
Copy !req
132. With his knowledge of train schedules
Copy !req
133. He would know when the next
commuter run would pass.
Copy !req
134. It's no accident
that he ditched the car where he did.
Copy !req
135. Only one train passed there in the last
six hours, heading for the mountains.
Copy !req
136. I don't get it.
There's nothing out that way.
Copy !req
137. Nothing except Cranston Estates.
Copy !req
138. So you say this guy
lives out there?
Copy !req
139. What's his name, this Professor Wataki?
Copy !req
140. Wakati. He's the father
of quantum temporal theory,
Copy !req
141. - the structure of time.
Copy !req
142. What's going on?
Copy !req
143. Fugate's booby-trapped the car.
Copy !req
144. We're trapped in time.
Copy !req
145. What's going on?
Copy !req
146. We've been put in a bubble of slow time.
Copy !req
147. The outside world is moving
much faster than we are.
Copy !req
148. Look.
Copy !req
149. Hours are passing like minutes.
Copy !req
150. Why didn't the car's sensors
pick up the booby trap?
Copy !req
151. He probably set it just a nanosecond
or two out of phase with reality.
Copy !req
152. But that's the least of our problems.
Copy !req
153. E still equals MC squared, last I heard.
Copy !req
154. Mass increases with speed.
Copy !req
155. If a car hits us
while we're frozen like this,
Copy !req
156. we might trigger an atomic explosion.
Copy !req
157. There it is.
Copy !req
158. Hey!
Copy !req
159. Nearly as I can figure,
we've lost almost 48 hours.
Copy !req
160. Then we'd better not
waste any more time.
Copy !req
161. I think we've found the professor.
Copy !req
162. How do we get him out?
Copy !req
163. Same way we got ourselves out.
Copy !req
164. Don't, Harold.
Copy !req
165. Batman?
Copy !req
166. Just make sure nobody fiddles
with the props.
Copy !req
167. No problem.
Copy !req
168. DR. He was the one person
in the world I trusted.
Copy !req
169. Is it any wonder I prefer
being a recluse?
Copy !req
170. What else did he say, Dr. Wakati?
Copy !req
171. He was babbling.
Copy !req
172. Said something about the Mayor,
Copy !req
173. about how he was finally
going to get his day in court.
Copy !req
174. Day in court?
Copy !req
175. The new courthouse.
Copy !req
176. The Mayor is dedicating
it today at 10:00.
Copy !req
177. That's two minutes from now.
We'd better call the cops and—
Copy !req
178. You can't. I have no phones.
Copy !req
179. Your phone won't work, Batman.
This area is a dead zone.
Copy !req
180. I chose it so my experiments would
be free of electromagnetic interference.
Copy !req
181. It'll take at least a half hour for us
to make it back on the bikes.
Copy !req
182. You have 30 seconds to show us
how to use these.
Copy !req
183. Wow, faster than a speeding bullet.
Copy !req
184. And so, my friends,
it is my privilege
Copy !req
185. to officially bring Gotham City's
new courthouse to order.
Copy !req
186. By all means, Mr. Mayor,
usher the new building in with a bang.
Copy !req
187. This could be dangerous.
Better stand back.
Copy !req
188. Oh, to savor the moment
as long as possible.
Copy !req
189. No. It can't be.
Copy !req
190. Too late. It's triggered.
Copy !req
191. Slow down.
Copy !req
192. Looks like time just ran out.
Copy !req
193. It's a shame that you've decided
to keep this device a secret.
Copy !req
194. It would seem that the world
is not quite ready for it yet.
Copy !req
195. Gee, that's too bad for Fugate.
Copy !req
196. I'm sure he'll wish he had something
Copy !req
197. to make the days pass quicker
where he's going.
Copy !req
