** Near the end of the 2-part episode ''The Demon's Quest'', Ra's al Ghul [[Just Between You and Me|lets Batman in on his master plan]] which will [[Omnicidal Maniac|result in the deaths of billions]], leading to the following exchange: |

:* Also a [[Funny Moments (Sugar Wiki)|Funny Moments]] especially as this is ''Batman'' saying it, a man who's normally all grim and serious 24-7. |

:* In a later episode, Mr. Freeze has this response to Grant Walker's plan to freeze the entire world except for his own island. When a ''supervillain'' is the one doubting your sanity, you know you have problems. Better yet, an ice-obsessed villain saying this about a plan to freeze the world.

:** In "Joker's Favor", Charlie Collins has lived in terror over what 'favor' Joker will have him, to the point of changing his name and moving across the country (To no avail), so he's a little thunderstruck that all Joker wants from him is to open a door and let Harley Quinn push a cake to Commissioner Gordon's dinner. |

{{quote|'''Charlie:''' Wait, that's the favor? You called me out here just to open a door? |

'''Joker:''' Well, look at the size of that cake, man! She can't open the door and push it in all at once! Think! |

'''Charlie:''' (Aside) He's nuts...}} |
