- Darkwing Duck: I am the terror that flaps in the night, I am the switch that derails your train. I am Darkwing Duck!
- [first line of the series]
- Darkwing Duck: [narrating] This is the city of St. Canard. Like any other major metropolis, it has its problems with the criminal element.
- Gosalyn Mallard: I can't sleep!
- Darkwing Duck: Ah, you just need something to relax ya! I think I have a large mallet around here somewhere.
- Gosalyn Waddlemeyer: I don't know anything about a pig, and I wasn't anywhere near the boys' bathroom!
- [Darkwing snatches Gosalyn from Taurus Bulba's henchmen]
- Darkwing Duck: Never fear, little miss! Darkwing Duck has you now!
- [Gosalyn - getting the wrong idea - punches him in the chest and drapes his hat down]
- Darkwing Duck: I'm not one of the bad guys!
- Gosalyn Waddlemeyer: Yeah, right! With a mask...
- [punches him again]
- Gosalyn Waddlemeyer: [Bulba's henchmen give chase and shoot at them]
- Darkwing Duck: I take it you're convinced now?
- [pushes her head down]
- Darkwing Duck: Stay down! I got a little surprise for them...
- [the Ratcatcher lets out an oil slick, causing the bad guys to spin out of control]
- [Darkwing and Gosalyn ascend out of the bay and up to his base]
- Gosalyn Waddlemeyer: [excited] Wow! A police chase with bullets, crooks, and everything! Sure beats study hall at the orphanage. Are all your days like this?
- Darkwing Duck: No, because I'm usually sleeping, but when I learned Professor Waddlemeyer had raised a granddaughter, I knew I had to get to you before Taurus Bulba.
- Gosalyn Waddlemeyer: Who is he, anyway?
- Darkwing Duck: A deviously clever criminal mastermind who I'm convinced is still operating his gang from inside prison.
- Gosalyn Waddlemeyer: Just like in the comics! I bet you guys are eternal enemies, right?
- Darkwing Duck: [clears throat] Well, uh... heh, heh, actually he doesn't even know I exist - but he soon will. Mark my words!
