• [Joker takes aim at "Batman's" head with a gun, but before he pulls the trigger, a bomb in "Batman's" neck explodes] ...Best gun ever! [He lifts "Batman's" head and sees Black Spider's face] [gasps and smiles] Denzel! What have they done to you? [laughs]

Dialogue

The Joker: [points a gun at Deadshot] You! New guy! I don't like people touching my stuff!

[Deadshot just walks forward and touches his forehead to the barrel]

Deadshot: Go ahead. You're out of bullets.

The Joker: I am not!

Deadshot: You are. You're going to pull the trigger, and when nothing happens, I'm going to punch you in the throat and bash your brains out. Three... two... one...

The Joker: Hold on, stop counting for a second! I know there are bullets... [fires the gun into the air] See?

[Deadshot punches the Joker, who grabs Harley and tumbles down the laundry chute with her]

Captain Boomerang: Mate... you just out-crazied The Joker!

---

Amanda Waller: What can I say? When I make an omelet I break a lot of eggs.

Batman: And you're such a messy cook.

---

[Riddler had just administered shock treatment to the members of the Suicide Squad in order to defuse the nano-bombs implanted in their necks]

Captain Boomerang: I never need to do that again.

Harleen Quinzel: Are you kidding? I feel great.

[Scene switches to an angry Amanda Waller]

Amanda Waller: NOBODY SCREWS THE WALL!!!! [She then slams her hand on the hand the DETONATE button]

[Scene shifts back to Arkham Asylum, showing the nano-bomb in King Shark's neck being activated]

King Shark: Uh, guys.

Killer Frost: [To Riddler, after realizing that the nano-bomb in King Shark's neck is still active.] Do it again.

Riddler: I don't know. Maybe his skin is too thick?

[King Shark's head begins swelling up, then explodes, with his flesh hitting the other members of the Suicide Squad, while Deadshot narrowly avoids being hit by King Shark's metal mask]

---

Killer Frost: The Joker has a dirty bomb? That gives me the chills.

Captain Boomerang: Ice puns? Really?

---

[Deadshot climbs into bed and sleeps, but Harley crawls up behind him]

Harley Quinn: Welcome back. Did you miss me?

Deadshot: What do you want?

[Deadshot rolls over to see Harley naked in front of him]

Harley Quinn: I got an itch I thought you could help me scratch, cowboy...

[Angry, Deadshot throws her down on the bed and pins her arms above her head]

Harley Quinn: WHOO! Good start!

Deadshot: Oh, what the hell...

[He starts making out with Harley. She wraps her legs around him and they both tumble off the bed with a crash...]

Harley Quinn: Yahtzee!

---

[Harley tries to break into the Joker's cell]

The Joker: [taps his cell walls] Sorry, hun. Bulletproof.

Harley Quinn: Even better, puddin'. [She fires through an air hole of the cell. Joker ducks as the bullet ricochets wildly around the walls]

---

The Riddler: Riddle me this: what belongs to you, but others use it more than you do?

Amanda Waller: Your name.

The Riddler: Huh...? You've heard that one.

Amanda Waller: No, I have Google. Like the rest of the world.

---

Harley Quinn: [on the Joker] I'm fine. We're done. He's a jerk. Whatever.

Killer Frost: [sarcasm] Well, I'm convinced.

---

Amanda Waller: You going to write a blog and expose us? That's checkmate, Batman.

Batman: I am warning you.

---

Harley Quinn: [to Captain Boomerang] Go wave your boomer-Wang at the shark guy!

King Shark: [Aggressively] Do it and I'll bite it off!

---

[all the criminals Waller assembled see each other]

Harley Quinn: AW CRAP! Not this again!

Captain Boomerang: [to Deadshot] You too? It's like a bloody recurring nightmare.

---

[Deadshot shows he can throw darts better than Captain Boomerang]

Captain Boomerang: Lucky shot.

Deadshot: Right. Let's see you do it. [Captain Boomerang throws a dart at the board, but it ricochets around the room and then flies at Deadshot's head... who just catches it]

Captain Boomerang: Sorry, mate. Looks like that one took a bad bounce.

[Deadshot punches Captain Boomerang]

Deadshot: Let's call it even... mate.

[Amanda notices a line of sight on her chest]

Amanda Waller: Motherf...

Deadshot: [aiming at her with a gun] Bang.
