• [the Batmobile launches a missile at Ryan's van] 

  Ryan Wilder : Are you kidding me? What was that?

  Mary Hamilton : He wants the suit.

  Ryan Wilder : He can have it. I'll toss it out the window!

  Mary Hamilton , Luke Fox : No!

  Luke Fox : If he gets that suit, he becomes the most dangerous person in Gotham. You need to outrun him.

  Ryan Wilder : Outrun him? Look at his car. I don't even have hubcaps!

• Ryan Wilder : [reading a newspaper article about Kate]  "Following in her father's footsteps, Kate attended Point Rock Academy." Wait a minute. This is juicy. "Kate was dishonorably discharged weeks before graduation. In her statement, Kate said, 'It's paradoxical to fight on behalf of an institution that sees... my sexual orientation as the enemy.'" Okay, that's kind of badass.

• Ryan Wilder : [putting on the Batsuit for the first time]  Time to be powerful.

• Clown : [Ryan appears in the Batsuit]  What is this, some wannabe?

  Ryan Wilder : [accidentally firing a batarang into his leg]  Sorry. Legit didn't mean that.

  Clown : Sorry? You freaking shot me!

• Ryan Wilder : [returning the Batsuit]  It's not bulletproof, FYI.

  Luke Fox : [seeing the bullet hole]  Is this from the kryptonite?

  Ryan Wilder : [tossing the shard to him]  You mean this? Yeah. Hurt like a bitch, too.

• Tommy Elliot : Hello? I want my Batsuit.

  Luke Fox : [in the Batcave]  Oh, crap.

  Mary Hamilton : What? What?

  Luke Fox : Tommy has the kryptonite.

  Ryan Wilder : You're not Bruce Wayne.

  Tommy Elliot : And you're not Batwoman.

• Mary Hamilton : Well, the suit has GPS, so you might as well just give it back now, Miss...

  Ryan Wilder : [removing cowl]  Wilder, Ryan. And I'm not done yet.

  Mary Hamilton : That suit is meant for a hero, not the lost and found.

  Ryan Wilder : You tell that to the bored billionaire who found it in Batman's lost box?

  Luke Fox : You don't know the first thing about Kate Kane, and you sure as hell don't anything about that symbol.

  Ryan Wilder : Trust me, I know I'm not a symbol or a name or a legacy.

  Mary Hamilton : Exactly, so why do you think you're worthy of wearing it?

  Ryan Wilder : Because I'm a number. I am the 327th baby of a black woman who died during childbirth that year. I'm a $20 a day check to a group home. I'm Inmate 4075, serving 18 months for a crime I didn't commit, but I can live with all those numbers because the mama who adopted me, I was her number one, but it turns out she's just one of a quarter million murders in this country who have not seen justice, and that is a number I can't live with, so you can have this damn suit back when her killer is dead.
