clara: …I killed him. I killed…him…

jason todd: Give me the gun. No you didn’t, alright? *shoots body* See? I killed him.

You had no choice. The first time I killed someone, I didn’t sleep that night, or the next. I’m just saying the first time is rough.

jason todd to clara after she kills someone

[batfamquotes]

jason todd about to leave devour, DNA, doomed, vessel, babe in arms and clara alone: …and don’t use the stove, or knives, or the bathtub or matches.

clara: Well then how are we gonna have a hot knife bath?

[batfamquotes]

devour: Dad, I worked it out with Clara. She's gonna stay home and babysit Vessel, and I'm gonna go out.

jason todd: Now, why would she make a deal like that?

devour: Well, I had dirt on her.

jason todd: ... What kinda dirt?

devour: Now, if I told you, I'd have to stay home. (leaves, Clara comes in)

jason todd: So, what do you think your punishment oughta be?

clara: What do you mean?

jason todd: Devour told me everything.

clara: That little rat.

jason todd: I told him I wasn't going to do anything about it till I get your side of the story.

clara: Well, first we... wait a minute. (grins and shakes her head) Uh-uh.

jason todd: ...You're getting good.

[batfamquotes]

jason todd: It's my job to worry about you, not the other way around. I'll be fine.

clara: Yeah, that's what you said when you tried to deep-fry a turkey. And we all know how that turned out. I just don't want you to get hurt. Or burn your eyebrows off... again.

jason todd: I'm glad they grew back.

clara: They're finally matching.

jason todd: *breaks window*

jason todd: Vandalism is wrong, Clara.

clara: Okay.

[batfamquotes]

clara: Can’t someone else babysit? What about DNA? What about Devour? All they got to do is feed pigeons.

jason todd: I’m sure DNA and Devour already have plans for the night. Besides they aren’t the ones who promised to babysit Vessel.

clara: [about a concert she wants to go to] But this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

jason todd: You’re right. An opportunity to live up to your responsibilities and be a good role model to your little brother. He looks up to you.

clara: He’s two feet tall! He looks up to everybody!

jason todd: You're young. You shouldn't be smoking. It's a hard habit to break.

clara: Well, you're smoking.

jason todd: I'm smoking but, I'm older than you are.
