{{quote|'''Joker:''' We wouldn't want our little caged rodent to suffocate, so we'll just ''punch'' some ''air holes!'' ''(Joker punctures the trash can with a dagger while Batman is trapped inside, trying to avoid the blade)''}}
** Also from that episode - after the climactic fight, Joker is hanging by his shoe over an incinerator and shouts "Batman, you wouldn't let me fry, would you?" Batman takes a moment to think it over with a goofy grin on his face. The Joker shouts "BATMAN!" and seems clearly shocked and offended. It's hilarious.
** Yet another gem from that episode involves the Joker looking through the periscope of the submarine he's piloting. He slowly turns it around until he's eye to eye with Batman, who's standing on the roof of the sub. Batman then punches the periscope, and the resulting vibrations hit the Joker right in the face.
* Nothing quite compares to how The Joker escapes at the beginning of "Christmas With The Joker." Escaping from [[Cardboard Prison|Arkham Asylum]]? Fairly standard. Doing so on a rocket shaped like a Christmas tree? Inspired. Doing so [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Veju4PxhuGc while singing "Jingle Bells, Batman Smells"], and actually escaping on the line "And the Joker got away"? Gut-bustingly hilarious.
** "Laughing all the WHEEEEEEEE!"
Line 94:
{{quote|'''Harley''': There's something about that chin... I got it! [[Comically Missing the Point|You're Bruce Wayne, the billionaire!]] Unattached, I see...}}
** Harley proudly showing her Certificate of Sanity to Veronica the same way you'd show a diploma or first driver's license.
** The face Bruce makes when he's dragged away by Veronica, clearly showing he'd rather spend time with the ex-clown girl who tried to kill him numerous times.
** The ending where Harley kisses Batman who is too stunned to react ''twice'' is just hilarious - especially with Poison Ivy and Robin standing in the sidelines, sharing a look that pretty clearly says: "What the hell?" Doubly funny if you take the classic [[Ho Yay|Ho Yay and the newer Les Yay]] into account.
* How about the Joker's [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WQqstqo4Sw answering machine message]? It's either hilarious or [[Nightmare Fuel]], depending on where he got the recording. As follows:
{{quote|'''Joker''': "Boy, did YOU get the wrong number! Leave your message after the shriek."
Line 129:
** Which actually can turn into [[Nightmare Fuel]] when you realize that the original comic's dialogue was about a ''file'' instead.
*** She's probably too young to know what a file is.
** It's also kind of a [[Heartwarming Moments (Sugar Wiki)|Heartwarming Moments]].
** Later in that segment, Clayface shows up. Batgirl knocks him into the ice-skating pond outside, which he breaks through. There is a Santa on the chain of lights above the rink. Bullock and Montoya try to shoot Clayface.
{{quote|'''Batgirl:''' Don't waste your ammo on ''him''! Shoot the Santa!
Line 143:
'''Ivy:''' We were going to do it, anyway. }}
** "Look PIANO!!!"-Harley
** During the shopping montage, they cut to Bruce signing various checks and receipts, with a look on his face that says he's gonna ''murder'' those two as soon as he can get back into a cowl.
** Another Harley moment from same episode, she kept BEGGING Ivy to get them a Christmas Tree, to which Ivy said no-saying that the tradition of Christmas Trees is Genocide to the Pines! When they kidnap Bruce and make him pay for their shopping spree, the first thing Harley notices, a Christmas Tree...
{{quote|'''Harley''': ''Pleeeeeeease!''
Line 152:
{{quote|Keep in mind he didn't actually take down the thieves himself, he actually shot a batarang out of his eyes to knock the guns out of their hands and then glared at them so hard he shot ANOTHER Batman out of his eyes to beat down the crooks for him.
I dare you to prove me wrong, I DOUBLE DARE YOU MOTHERFUCKERS!!! }}
* In ''[[Batman: Mystery of the Batwoman]]'', Batman breaks into a suspect's apartment and is going through her wardrobe when her bodyguard walks in on him. It should be mentioned that this is a bodyguard whom Batman ''thoroughly'' thrashed in an earlier meeting. They stare at each other for five mute seconds, then the bodyguard calmly closes the door and walks away. The bodyguard's partner asks what's up and the bodyguard says: "Nothing."
* One classic bit that was completely unexpected takes place in "See No Evil". While Bruce is at a jewelry store, the villain of the day enters the men's room to change into his invisibility suit and locks the door when a poor guard needed to use the restroom. When he tries again later, Bruce is in there getting changed into the Batman costume. This time, the guard waits in front of the door, to which Batman slams it open and just smacks the poor guy against the wall.
* The [[Clock King]] scores one in "Time Out of Joint". After activating his device that causes time around him to slow down, he decides to take the elevator to the top of a building...only to realize how pointless this is and takes the stairs instead.
Line 208:
* The [[Funny Background Event]] during the opening news report in "Heart of Ice," where a cop tries to get some kids away from a crime scene, only to get pounded by snowballs.
* In "The Laughing Fish," Harley repeatedly expresses her disgust of fish, until the Joker says he'll make it up to her by letting her be his mermaid...and slips a fish head costume over her. Harley gives a [[Death Glare]] and says "You're really sick, you know that, boss?" It's also possibly a reference to ''[[Red Dwarf]]''.
** From the same episode, when Batman brings in a Joker fish to be analyzed:
{{quote|'''Alfred''': This could cause a stampede to pork.}}
