A scene from Batman Forever 1995
Bruce

[Bruce and Alfred try to solve Riddler's Clues]

"We're five little items of an every day sort; you'll find us all in a tennis court". In...a...E, I, O, U. Vowels.

Alfred

Not entirely unclever, sir. But, what do a clock, a match, chess pawns, and vowels have in common? What do these riddles mean?

Bruce

Every riddle has a number in the question and they write in this order: 13, 1, 8, and 5.

Alfred

13, 1, 8, and 5.

Bruce

Maybe, perhaps, letters of the alphabet?

Alfred

Of course, 13 is M.

Bruce

1 would be A, 8 would be H, and 5 would be E.

Alfred

M-A-H-E...

Bruce

Perhaps 1 and 8 are...18?

Alfred

18 is R. M-R-E.

Bruce

[makes a realization]

How about "Mr. E"?

Alfred

"Mystery".

Bruce

And another name for mystery?

Alfred

Enigma.

Bruce

"Mr. E-nigma". Edward Nygma. Stickley's suicide was obviously a computer-generated forgery.

Alfred

You really are quite bright, despite what people say.
