How long do you calculate you'll last in there?

[Wayne] Targeting me won't get their money back.

I knew the mob wouldn't go down without a fight, but this is different:

they've crossed the line.

[Alfred] You crossed the line first, sir. You squeezed 'em; you hammered them to the point of desperation.

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

[Wayne] Criminals aren't complicated, Alfred.

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

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

A long time ago,

I was in Burma when 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.

[Wayne] So why steal it?

[Alfred] Well, because he thought it was good sport. [Wayne] So why steal it?

[Alfred] 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.

[indistinct chatter from millions of cell phones]

[phone caller] '8th' and 'Orchard';

you'll find Harvey Dent there.

[loud bang]

[Batman] Check the names.

[Gordon] Richard Dent.

Patrick Harvey.

[Ramirez] Harvey Dent.

[Batman] I need ten minutes with the scene before your men contaminate it.

[Ramirez] Us, "contaminate it"? It's because of you these guys are dead.

-Hey! Detective! [Ramirez] Us, "contaminate it"? It's because of you these guys are dead.

[Gordon] Not so many, guys.

That's brick underneath.

You're gonna take ballistics off a shattered bullet?

[Batman] No. You're gonna take ballistics off a shattered bullet?

[Batman] Fingerprints.

[electric sawing sound]

[electric sawing sound]

[Gordon] Whatever you're gonna do, do it fast; [electric sawing sound]

'cause we found his next target.

He's put it in tomorrow's paper.

[clip clicking]

[loud gunshot]

[loud gunshot]

[loud gunshot]

[loud gunshot]

[Alfred] I'm not sure you made it loud enough, sir!

[music]

[Fox] What can I do for you, Mr. Reese?
