Batman: So why the high school?
Zeta: I needed computers and electronic equipment. Compared to a government site, a school has little security.
Max: And once you saw who's who at the school, I was the natural choice. Who'd looked twice at me spending all day at the lab? edit »
Max: So he was innocent.
Zeta: Yes, but that is not why I spared him. Replacing him required that I lived with his family. I watched them experience life. I saw his daughter ride a bicycle for the first time. I could not deprive her father of seeing her grow just because he knew I existed.
Max: Wow... edit »
Dana: You know where Win lives, right?
Zeta/Max: I'll get directions from her.
Dana: (giggles) "Him." You said "her." Win's a guy.
Zeta/Max: Sorry, concentrating.
Dana: What else is new? edit »
Terry: I don't know, does being Batman just gives me a suspicious nature?
Max: Yes. edit »
