[Edward Nygma tells Penguin the type of man he is]

Edward Nygma:
[Nygma walks up to Penguin] Mr. Penguin. For some men, love is a source of strength. But for you and I, it will always be our most crippling weakness.

Oswald Cobblepot:
Move aside, Ed.

Edward Nygma:
We are better off unencumbered.

Oswald Cobblepot:
What did you say?

Edward Nygma:
You said it yourself. Your mother is dead because of your weakness. But what you need to realize is that your weakness was her.

Oswald Cobblepot:
[Penguin grabs a knife and shoves it up to Nygma's neck, screaming] My mother was a saint! The only person who truly cared about me, and now she's gone! And now I have nothing left.

Edward Nygma:
A man with nothing that he loves... is a man who cannot be bargained. A man that cannot betrayed. A man who answers to no one... but himself. And that is the man that I see before me. A free man.
