--->'''Alfred:''' He's wrong. Master Bruce, there's no other way to put it, he's wrong. Your destiny is to be Bruce Wayne. And one day you're gonna remember that. And you're gonna remember how much I love you. I remember the first time your mum and dad brought you home, they were so exhausted. And they gave you to me; this tiny, defenseless little creature, and they said "look after him," and I said "sure." And I scooped you up in my arms, and I held you, and you opened your eyes and you looked at me. And at that moment I decided that I would do anything for you; anything. So if this is what you need to do, Master Bruce, you crack on. You do it.
