Quotes
-
Batman : I read your work. Insightful. Naive, but insightful.
Dr. Chase Meridian : I'm flattered. Not every girl makes a superhero's night table.
-
Batman : Commissioner Gordon?
Dr. Chase Meridian : He's at home. I sent the signal.
Batman : What's wrong?
Dr. Chase Meridian : Last night at the bank I noticed something about Two-Face. His coin. It's his Achilles' heel. It can be exploited.
Batman : I know. You called me here for this? The Batsignal is not a beeper.
Dr. Chase Meridian : Well I wish I could say that my interest in you was... purely professional.
Batman : You trying to get under my cape, doctor?
Dr. Chase Meridian : A girl can't live by psychoses alone.
Batman : It's the car, right? Chicks love the car.
Dr. Chase Meridian : [laughs] What is it about the wrong kind of man? In grade school it was boys with earrings, high school; motorcycles; college, leather jackets. Now...
Dr. Chase Meridian : [feels his suit] Ahhh. Black rubber.
Batman : Try firemen, less to take off.
Dr. Chase Meridian : [Batman hastens away but she follows him] I don't mind the work. Pity I can't see behind the mask.
Batman : We all wear masks.
Dr. Chase Meridian : My life's an open book. You read?
Batman : I don't blend in at a family picnic.
Dr. Chase Meridian : Oh, we could give it a try. I'll bring the wine, you bring your scarred psyche.
Batman : [Chase removes her coat, revealing a sexy black dress] Direct, aren't you?
Dr. Chase Meridian : You like strong women. I've done my homework. Or do I need skin-tight vinyl and a whip?
Batman : I haven't had that much luck with women.
Dr. Chase Meridian : Maybe you just haven't met the right woman.
[they are about to kiss, but are suddenly interrupted by Gordon's arrival]

Dr. Chase Meridian : [last line; a mention] Don't work too late.

Dr. Chase Meridian : [Edward is hiding in the shadows of his cell in Arkham Asylum] Edward?
Edward Nygma : Who is it?
Dr. Chase Meridian : It's Dr. Meridian; Chase. Do you remember me?
Edward Nygma : How can I forget?
Dr. Chase Meridian : Dr. Burton tells me that you know who Batman is.
Edward Nygma : I can't tell you if you don't say "please".
Dr. Chase Meridian : Edward, please. Who is Batman?
Edward Nygma : [leaps out from the shadows with his outfit in the shape of a bat costume] I'M... Batman!
-
Dr. Chase Meridian : By the way, do you have a first name, or do I just call you Bats?
-
Dr. Chase Meridian : He'll slaughter them without thinking twice.
Batman : Agreed. A trauma powerful enough to create an alternate personality leaves the victim...
Dr. Chase Meridian : - in a world where normal rules of right and wrong no longer apply.
Batman : Exactly.
Dr. Chase Meridian : Like you. - Well, let's just say that I could write a hell of a paper on a grown man who dresses like a flying rodent.
Batman : Bats aren't rodents, Dr. Meridian.

Bruce Wayne : [bursting into Dr. Meridian's office, thinking she's in trouble, only to find her training with a punching bag] I... guess I'm early. I have an appointment. I'm Bruce Wayne.
Dr. Chase Meridian : Good. You can afford to buy me a new door.
Bruce Wayne : [trying to fit it back into the jamb] I... I'm sorry. I... you, uh, sounded like you were in... in, uh... uh... you know, trouble.
Dr. Chase Meridian : I prefer healty expressions of violence, as opposed to breaking and entering.
-
Dr. Chase Meridian : [after examining Nygma at Arkham] Your secret is safe. He's definitely a wacko.
Bruce Wayne : Wacko. Is that a technical term?
-
Dr. Chase Meridian : Hot entrance!
-
Bruce Wayne : You have a thing for bats?
Dr. Chase Meridian : Oh, that's a Rorschach, Mr. Wayne. An ink blot. People see what they want. I think the question would be do you have a thing for bats?
-
Bruce Wayne : Still playing with dolls, Doctor?
Dr. Chase Meridian : She's a Malaysian dream warden. Some cultures believe she protects you from bad dreams. It's silly to you, I'm sure.
[studying him]
Dr. Chase Meridian : You look so sad. Do you need one?
Bruce Wayne : Me? No. Why would I?
-
Bruce Wayne : Listen, I'd love to stay here chatting...
Dr. Chase Meridian : Mm, would you? I'm not so sure.
Bruce Wayne : I've really gotta get you out of those clothes.
Dr. Chase Meridian : Excuse me?
Bruce Wayne : And into a black dress. Tell me, Doctor, do you like the circus?
-
Bruce Wayne : Listen, I'm going rock-climbing this weekend. Would you like to join me?
Dr. Chase Meridian : Oh, um... I'd like to. I-I-I love climbing. I mean, I-I really love it.
Bruce Wayne : But?
Dr. Chase Meridian : I've met someone.
Bruce Wayne : That's fast work. You just moved here.
Dr. Chase Meridian : Well, you could say he just kind of dropped out of the sky, and... bang. I think he felt it, too.
Bruce Wayne : Sure did.
Dr. Chase Meridian : What?
Bruce Wayne : Well, who wouldn't?
-
Dr. Chase Meridian : [analyzing the riddles Bruce has been sent] My opinion is the letter writer is a total wacko.
Bruce Wayne : Wacko. That a technical term?
Dr. Chase Meridian : Patient may suffer from obsessional syndrome with potential homicidal tendencies. Does that work better for you?
Bruce Wayne : So, what you're saying is this guy is a total wacko.
Dr. Chase Meridian : Exactly. He's obsesesed with you. His only escape may be to purge the fixation.
Bruce Wayne : To kill me.
Dr. Chase Meridian : I think you understand obsession better than you let on.

Dr. Chase Meridian : Tear one off and scratch my head. What once was red is black instead.
