01x13 - Game Over for Owlman!
Posted: 02/24/23 13:51
- Previously on batman: The brave and the bold
- Aah! [both grunting]
- The phase oscillator
-
- A bridge to parallel earths.
Owlman's a parallel me
-
- The evil one.
- Where you going?
- To get answers.
Red hood, stay down.
I'm here to help.
- You're from the parallel world.
Whoever he is, I hope my counterpart on your world Will have a chance to repay you.
[siren]
- Hands up, batman! You're under arrest!
- This is clearly a mistake.
I'll just explain.
- Your reign of terror in gotham is over, freak.
- Or maybe not.
[click]
- Hey! [coughing]
- What? [coughing]
- Batman's heading west on haney.
- Suspect known to be armed and very dangerous.
- I returned from the world of opposites Only to find my own has gone topsy
-turvy.
And according to the date, I'd been gone 3 weeks.
It seems the phase oscillator does more Than simply bridge worlds.
It warps time.
[alarm ringing]
Of course.
Looks like I wasn't the only one Playing dress
-up on a parallel world.
- Uhh!
- Uhh! Uhh! [both grunting]
- Welcome home, dark knight.
- Owlman.
You b*at my failsafe holding cell.
- Hunh!
- A titanium alloy [bototh grunting]
- And since you're alive, that means you defeated my friends And freed my enemies.
Impressive.
[both grunt]
- I bet you'd like the keys to your life back now, Such as it is.
- Uhh!
- And you'd like the phase oscillator So you can go home and prepare an invasion.
- Unh! Uhh!
- Uhh!
- You're a hard bat to pin down, old friend.
Hero one second, villain the next.
- Green arrow, the criminal you're after isn't me.
He's my evil double from a parallel world.
- Right.
Uhh!
- I have spider holes like this all over gotham, Built to surprise my enemies.
[sirens]
Never expected to use them to save myself.
- Bats knocked out 2 guards, Blew up a lot of cash and got away from me.
Whatever his game is, he's going down tonight.
And, no, Your assistance is not required.
- Bat's in my crosshairs.
Unh! Aah!
- Uhh!
- And to think, All those lectures you gave me About staying on the straight and narrow.
How does he do that?
- Uhh! Uhh! [beep]
- No response from the car.
Of course.
Owlman stole it and reprogrammed it.
- Blind alley.
He's trapped.
- So this is how it ends.
Not in a battle against criminals, But taken down by my own best friends.
- How does he do that?
- Uhh! Uhh! Uhh!
- Tsk, tsk, tsk, batman.
Our game was so simple
-
- Brooding hero, dashing devil
-may
-care villain.
I strap you to a drill press, You lock me in a rubber room.
And it's fits and giggles till aunt fannie comes home.
But if you think you can switch sides And out
-criminal the clown prince of crime, It's only fair to warn you, I always blow away the competition.
- Recently, business has been lousy, But I'm about to make a real k*lling.
Ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha
-
- Uhh! Ooh! Ha.
Never could take a joke.
- But I can deliver a punch
-
-
- Hold the trolley.
I don't want to fight.
I want to be partners.
Assuming you're you and not that pointy
-eared fake in a cape.
- How did you know about my imposter?
- Still wound tighter than a straitjacket, I see.
Ah, you're the dull deal, all right.
And as for your doppelgangster You see, he messed with the natural order.
Not your style at all.
Batman a worse thr*at to gotham Than the harlequin of hate? Why, it's libelous, I say! You know it's always been my gift To bring smiles to others.
- Ha ha ha Ha ha! Ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! [thud]
- But inside, I'm one very sad clown.
- Ha ha ha ha! Hoo hoo hoo hoo!
- So crazy thought
-
- You and I team against our common foe.
- Only a twisted, diseased mind like yours Could think of such a plan.
I'll deal with owlman myself.
- You need me, sunny jim.
If the new you is as good at being bad As the old you is at being you, Then neither of you can b*at the other on your own, see? But if owlman's another you, He craves control.
And who better to take down a control freak Than the nemesis of order, The crown prince of chaos
-
- Moi.
Just think about how many times I've nearly punched your ticket.
- The clown's crazy, but he's onto something.
Adding an unexpected element to the mix Could tip things in my favor.
- Found him! And he's not alone.
- So Shall we take your car Or mine? Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
- That's the clown's car! Stop it!
- Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha
-
- [tires screeching]
- So, how we doing? Did we get him?
- You're an idiot.
- We need to go somewhere safe to figure out our next move.
But owlman has the batmobile.
[engine revving]
Stop.
Good thing I keep a spare.
- We'll make the bestest team ever
-
-joker and batman.
Fine, batman and joker.
Take top billing, But why is it always me compromising for the sake of the act?
- Joker, if we're going to work together, I need your word you won't hurt anyone.
- Hmm.
Not really me, But what the heck
-
- I'm in.
Put 'er there! Oopsy
-batsy.
Old habits.
Speaking of old, they don't build 'em like this anymore.
So what's this one do?
- Don't touch that.
- What's this one do?
- Don't touch that.
What's this one do?
- Don't touch that.
- Ooh, shiny! What does this one do?
- You really don't want to touch that.
- [snoring]
- Told you not to touch it.
[spraying]
[joker muttering]
My, what big ears you have.
Jiminy christmas, the bat cave! [gasps]
look at all your toys! [gasps]
oh, an entire wing for moi? I knew you cared.
[gasps]
[growling]
- We need to find a pattern, Deduce owlman's next target.
I combed through owlman's files, He searched mine.
Which means owlman knows every hero's weakness.
- What? I'm helping.
- I keep detailed files on my friends, Methods to neutralize them, In case any of us ever fall under a criminal's control.
- Huh? Uh
-
-uh
-
-aah!
- Aah! Uhh!
- I never dreaead my precautions would fall into the wrong hands.
Evil hands.
Well, joker, you ready to do this?
- To the batmobile! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! [opens door]
ooh! What's this one do? [spraying]
[joker snoring]
Uhh Sensing a lack of trust, batsy.
I get it
-
-we don't play well with others, So, end of the day, neither of us can count on anyone But ourselves.
- Arrow, beetle, anyone copy?
- I read you, bats.
You two clowns ready to pay your debt to society, Earn a fresh start and a clean slate?
- You're in danger.
Stay put.
I'm coming to you.
- Nice try, batman.
Even you can't get the drop on me Aah! [shivering]
h
-how d
-did he do that?
- I hope you're hungry.
You're about to be served a heaping double dip of justice.
- Remember our deal, joker.
- Huhh! Uhh!
- Hey, I got the heroes off your back.
How about a litt gratitude? Say a phase oscillator, perhaps?
- Not feeling very gracious right now.
- Uhh!
- So, not hurt anyone.
Hmm.
Too toxic.
Too stabby.
Too fruity.
Hey, where's my
-
- The real one will move.
He always does.
- [groaning]
- Heh heh.
Oopsy.
-
- Joker.
-
- Ho ababsolutely eililarating! I could get used it to this hero stuff.
Besides, noboby kills my wingman but me.
- We all know how what this works.
A fair trara
-
- Your buddies for my phase oscillator.
Everyone goes home happy.
- Listen, you creep in bat's clothing, We don't make deals with criminal scum.
- Don't touch my radio.
We don't make deals with criminal scum
-
- Usually.
- Don't care about your friends? Fine.
How about the man in the street?
- Aah!
- Brake, choke, throttle.
- Ooh! My kind of fun.
- [gasps]
Please don't hurt me, batman.
- Ha ha ha ha ha ho ho ho! [beeping]
- [groans]
[brakes screeching]
- Clown face saved me.
Oh, watch out, clown face! It's batman!
- It's ok, kiddo.
Bat breath's with me.
- Bye
-bye, clown face!
- 'fess up, bats.
What made you take a chance on me?
- Whoever he is, I hope my counterpart on your world Will have a chance to repay you.
- Something a friend said.
- Gentlemen, I hope you're enjoying your accommodations.
Each was tailored to your special needs.
- [groaning]
- 5 more minutes under that lamp, aquaman, And you'll be fish jerky.
- [groaning]
- Hope you like taffy, plastic man.
You're about to become it.
My own invention, blue beetle.
Heroes check in, but they don't check out.
Atom, At your size, a hit from a single lead particle Will be like a direct sh*t from a cannonball.
Speaking of sh*ts
- Yeah, ok, I get it.
- When this magnet tears you apart, red tornado, Clock king will get a chance to see what makes you tick.
- So, you recruited these venomous vipers To help you with your diabolical scheme.
Of course, batman, Seems they wanted to see all of you iced, too.
So I repeat
-
-give me the phase oscillator Or the heroes die.
- And you lose your only ticket home.
- Grrr!
- Uhh! Hunh!
- Ohh!
- Time
-out! Since batman's being such a spoilsport, joker, Maybe you'll want to play along.
I knew you were coming, so I planned a surprise Just for you.
[beep]
Your very own trap, Primed and ready for batman, If you're interested.
- Joker
- Oh, bat buddy, We shared some laughs, And I really gave the hero thing The old clown college try.
But it's just not me.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha! [continues laughing]
Oh, what fun!
- Hunh!
- Uhh! Unh!
- Wormholes? Wormholes! So that's how he does it.
- Unh! Ohh!
- I'll be taking what's mine now.
When I return with my friends, We'll take everything else.
- Well, finally a batman who's in on the joke.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
- I knew you'd betray me, joker.
You said it
-
- In the end, I'd have to count on myself.
So in the split
-second I was gone, I spent a week visiting parallel earths.
Traveling alone is a great way to get in touch with yourself.
In fact, I really bonded with me, Myself, and I.
Shall we?
- Unh!
- Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
- [grunts]
- Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! [continues laughing]
- Excuse me.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Aah! [all grunting]
[grunting]
- Out of the way, you giggling ghoul.
- No way, bat fake! He's mine.
It's my destiny to take out the caped crusader.
[beep]
Drat.
- Funny thing about wild cards, joker
-
- You never know which way they'll fall.
[sirens]
- You know I'll be back somehow to even the score, batman.
- And you know I'll take you down every time.
If you ever need anything, You know where to find me.
- Psst.
Bats, based on this little adventure, If you weren't the stalwart hero And I wasn't the homicidal maniac, We could have been friends.
- [thinking]
thanks to the red hood, I know that somewhere inside the joker There's a decent man.
- But next time, batman, I'll have the Tr*mp card.
The clown prince of crime will have the final laugh.
Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ah ha ha ha ha ha!
- Or maybe not.
- Aah! [both grunting]
- The phase oscillator
-
- A bridge to parallel earths.
Owlman's a parallel me
-
