Harley Quinn Fine. But if you try to run, I will kill you. I do not care that you're a kid. I saw that.

[''Cassandra slips an item into jacket'']

Cassandra Cain Seriously though, how'd you get to be here? I mean, shopping at fancy-ass stores, you're making bank, you have your own business. How'd you do it? Come on, tell me. Woman to woman. Being a pickpocket's fine and all, but I got real potential. I mean, how do I be like you? Well, except for the crazy part. But other than that.

Harley Quinn Number one, no one is like me. If you wanted to even come close, you would have to go to medical school. Become a psychiatrist, work in an asylum. Fall in love with your patient, break said patient out of said asylum. Begin a life of crime. Jump into a vat of chemicals to prove yourself to a madman. Get arrested by the Batman. Go back to jail, get out of jail with a bomb on your neck. Save the world, go back to jail, and break out of jail before breaking up with the aforementioned madman and going out on your own. Number two... Six bucks for tap water with a fucking cucumber stick in it? That's crazy. I'm not shopping at this store. I'm robbing this store. Consider this your first lesson. Paying is for dummies.

[''Kisses and strokes his cheek'']

Harley and Cassandra We know.

Harley Quinn I'm telling you, if you want boys to respect you, you have to show them that you're serious. Blow something up. shoot someone. Nothing gets a guy's attention like violence.
