    -...but this is different. They crossed a line. -You crossed the line first.

    You squeezed them, you hammered them to the point of desperation.

    And in their desperation, they turned to a man they didn't fully understand.

  • Bruce Wayne

    Criminals aren't complicated, Alfred.

    We just need to figure out what he's after.

  • Alfred Pennyworth

    With respect, Master Wayne perhaps this is a man you don't fully understand either.

    A long time ago, I was in Burma and my friends and I were working for the local government.

    They were trying to buy the loyalty of tribal leaders by bribing them with precious stones but their caravans were being raided in a forest north of Rangoon by a bandit.

    So we went looking for the stones.

    But in six months, we never met anyone who traded with him.

    One day, I saw a child playing with a ruby the size of a tangerine.

    The bandit had been throwing them away.

  • Bruce Wayne

    -So why steal them? -Because he thought it was good sport.

  • Alfred Pennyworth

    Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money.

    They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned or negotiated with.

    Some men just wanna watch the world burn.
