Batman och Robin

Tidigt i filmen föreläser Batman (George Clooney) för Alfred (Michael Gough) och Robin (Chris O'Donnell) om hur Victor Fries (Arnold Schwarzenegger) blev den superskurk - Mr Freeze - han blev eftersom de just fått rejält med stryk av honom och hans kumpaner. De tittar på en inspelning från en övervakningskamera och Batman berättar:

Batman: "Gotham University Labs security video, two years ago. Dr. Victor Fries, two-time Olympic decathlete and Nobel prize winner for molecular biology. After his wife contracted a rare disease, Macgregor's Syndrome, he hoped to freeze her in a cryogenic sleep untiI he could find a cure. Now, here's where everything goes north."
Robin: "That's got to hurt."
Batman: "That liquid is 50 below. He survived somehow. The cryo-solution mutated his body."
Robin: "What happened to his wife?"
Batman: "No one knows for sure. She's presumed dead. Freeze needs extreme cold to survive. His cryo-suit uses diamond-enhanced lasers to keep him at zero degrees."
