Ronnie Anne: So, you're Firecracker?
Lincoln: (not changing his demeanor as Firecracker) Indeed I am, young lady. What are you doing here? This is a dangerous scene.
Ronnie Anne: It's pretty awesome what you do for us, good sir... Oh, let's just cut to the chase already. You may have fooled everyone else, but you haven't fooled me, Lincoln.
Lincoln: Thank you... Wait. How'd you know it was me?
Ronnie Anne: Well, let's look at the facts here... A freak incident happens in Lisa's lab that has you and your sisters hospitalized for days. Then you get back, you and your sisters start acting really strange in school and no one seems to figure out why. Then, shortly after that, a strange team of superheroes show up in Royal Woods, a boy and 10 girls. And top it all off, whenever they're saving the day, you and your sisters are nowhere to be found except for Leni. It wasn't really that hard to figure out.
Lincoln: You can't tell anyone about this. You'll be a prime target. I've seen this before in movies.
Ronnie Anne: No worries, Lame-o. Your secret is safe with me.

Hugo Strange: Oh, I use no tricks, no childish puzzles. I simply created a psychological profile of the man most likely to be the Batman, and then matched it against the most logical candidate. I was right, of course.
Riddler: Well, who is he?!
Strange: Ah, but that would spoil the game for you, wouldn't it?
Riddler: You must tell me! I implore you Strange! I-
Strange: Really, Edward? If I could figure it out, it must be child's play for you.
Riddler: But I... I...
Strange: Interesting. Tell me, Edward, how is the Riddler like a blank dictionary?
Riddler: ...
Strange: You're both at a loss for words.
