I blow that tunnel open, I'm gone.
Batman
There's more to you than that.
Sorry I keep letting you down. [pause] Come with me. Save yourself. You don't owe these people any more. You've given them everything.
Batman
Not everything. Not yet.
[Selina and Gordon watch as Batman climbs into the Bat to carry the nuclear bomb out over the harbor.] [To Batman]
I never cared who you were...
Batman
And you were right.
...but shouldn't the people know the hero who saved them?
Batman

[Looking at the Bat as he remembers putting coat around a young Bruce Wayne; catches on]
Bruce Wayne?
Selina Kyle
[Selina has brought Batman to a trap set by Bane]
I had to find a way to keep them from killing me.
Batman
You made a serious mistake.

[Batman throws a punch, but Bane blocks it.]
