This girl was the daughter of the same Sportsmaster guy mom used to fight. Her mother and father hooked up in the Injustice Society. She probably felt she had big boots to fill. We could've started a support group if she hadn't been trying to kill me. 
No. NO! Take it away! It's too horrible!
You guys can't catch a break, can you?
Just call me 'Dinah'. After all, the Marines are Supermen too.
Come on, Oracle. Send the Marines. Send the JLA. Send the Shriners. But get me outta here.
She's my best friend in the whole world--but I don't know who she is.
That's right, you're sort of Batgirl, aren't you?
Follow me, Kong-baby. I can outride the cops, and I have a feeling so can you.
First, we'll get together with your boss's ex-partners in science. Like Lucy, they got some s'plainin' to do!
My father was a cop. I married a cop. I was meant to be a cop. But this city didn't want a female detective.
Babs, no one believes in second chances more than I do. But I have a gut feeling this will end in tears.
You and Oracle should hang out and trade obscurities. She's got a mess of 'em.
I used to think fights followed me around. But Huntress seems to know trouble on a first-name basis. Forget that. She and trouble are conjoined twins.
Death by ice cream. Had to happen someday. Oh, man.
You're not listening, Oliver-- The bank won't take hot sex as collateral. This time, you figure out how to pay the rent-- and I'll go up to the mountains!
I loved being part of the tradition, part of an elite. And it was my obligation to protect those who were less... able. Then when that man... cut me, I couldn't even scream. I was so... helpless. It wasn't supposed to be like this! I was supposed to be stronger!!
Oh, I knew he'd catch up to me eventually. But a good detective needs to keep a clear head. I'll feel it... later. Gan will fight this in his own way. And I'll fight it in mine.
Oh, this makes a lot of sense... I'm going to take on twelve armed men... with nothing but my good looks and a quick wit...
Tell me exactly where my daughter is and I won't cripple you for life.
The only way out of here is through me. I hope you're stupid enough to try.
So you're just going to let them take over. Is that it? Why don't you just give them the keys to your cars... your houses. Maybe then they'll leave you alone... but I wouldn't count on it. If you don't stand up and fight for what's yours... you won't have anything left worth fighting for.
Damn you, Oliver Queen. It's been almost a year. Where are you?
Some of us do have to work, Oliver. I mean, we don't all have closets full of money.
Saturday night... you were supposed to pick me up at eight. You were late. The Tanetti hit happened at 7:45... across town. How long does it take to get from there to my place?
You've changed, Oliver. If you ever wondered what makes a man like fyres, you should look in a mirror. You have all the signs.
Scars. You'd have to go under the knife to remove those. But the psychological disfigurement -- no blade for that. Except the cutting edge of life itself. Otherwise, you remain a cheerless bird in a gilded cage. Truly... a Black Canary.
We had a good run... while it lasted. It just didn't last.
I am here by royal invitation. That awards me the rank of emissary and all the privileges of that title. If a member of my family is slighted in a public forum, I am within my rights to enact "Admonition by Combat". In English, I believe it means I can kick the living Hell out of anyone who talks smack about my people. Right?
It's England -- you can't throw a plate of fish and chips without hitting a castle, right?
The merchandise is not for pawing!
Wow. If we get out of this alive, will you have my baby?
Don't get me wrong. We're not freaks. We weren't born different. But we became different the moment we stepped into the hero role. Now we have to live up to it... or die trying.
Shut it, Zee. Ixnay on the uturefay uffstay.
We need more information. So I'm coming along -- and what's more, I'm calling the shots!
