Batman nods: Lay it on me.<br />
CATWOMAN<br />
The world tells boys to conquer the<br />
world, and girls to wear clean<br />
panties. A man dressed as a bat<br />
is a he-man, but a woman dressed<br />
as a cat is a she-devil. I'm just<br />
living down to my expectations.<br />
Life's a bitch -- now so am I.<br />
She runs her talons over the whip-lifeline. Meantime<br />
<strong>with</strong> his free arm, Batman reaches into his bat belt and<br />
pulls out a plastic mini-test tube <strong>with</strong> a blue fluid on<br />
top, red fluid on the bottom, separated <strong>by</strong> a thin barrier.<br />
<strong>BATMAN</strong><br />
A "he-man"? Sure. They shine<br />
that beacon in the sky, then wonder<br />
what hole I crawl out of.<br />
CATWOMAN<br />
Wow, a real response and you're<br />
not even trying to get into my tights.<br />
But explain me ... If you're<br />
so down on "them" out there, why<br />
bust your bat-buns to protect 'em?<br />
<strong>BATMAN</strong><br />
I just can't sleep at night.<br />
Exploding department stores keep<br />
me up. One ...<br />
He snaps the tube. As the blue seeps into the red and<br />
the tube slowly glows purple ...<br />
CATWOMAN<br />
I can't sleep either, lately. A<br />
little link, between us. But<br />
bottom line ba<strong>by</strong>, you live to<br />
preserve the peace, and I'm dying<br />
to disturb it. That could put a<br />
strain on our relationship.<br />
<strong>BATMAN</strong><br />
...four, five.
