Fredericks Quotes in The Dark Knight Rises (2012)

[Fox and Miranda come off the elevator at Wayne Enterprises, heading for a board meeting]

Lucius Fox: I still don't see the need for a board meeting for the energy project.

Miranda Tate: Bruce got a lot of things right. Keeping the board in the dark wasn't one of them.

[They enter the boardroom, and find Bane and several of his henchmen standing at the head of the table, holding the board members hostage with assault rifles. Bane turns to the newcomers]

Bane: How good of you to join us, Chair, President. All I need now is one more one ordinary member. Mr. Fox, would you like to nominate?

[Fox starts to speak, but Fredericks interrupts and stands]

Fredericks: No. I will volunteer.

Lucius Fox: Where are you taking us?

[Bane doesn't reply and he starts walking off]

Bruce Wayne: Everyone. Everybody.

[cinks his glass]

Bruce Wayne: I, uh... I wanna thank you all for coming here tonight and drinking all of my booze.

[the guests laugh]

Bruce Wayne: No, really. Uh... There's a thing about being a Wayne that... you're never short of a few freeloaders, like yourselves, to fill up your mansion with, so, here's to you people. Thank you.

Fredericks: That's enough, Bruce.

Bruce Wayne: Mm... I'm not finished. To all of you, uh, all you phonies, all of you two-faced friends, you sycophantic suck-ups who smile through your teeth at me, please leave me in peace. Please go. Stop smiling. It's not a joke. Please leave. The party's over. Get out.

Fredericks: The apple has fallen very far from the tree, Mr. Wayne.

Minister Dormandy: You see, that's the whole point of being the government. If you don't like something you simply make up a new law that makes it illegal. Speaking of which, Mr...

Fredericks: Fredericks.

Minister Dormandy: Fredericks.

Fredericks: Yes, sir?

Minister Dormandy: I think we might also start working on legislation to outlaw that haircut of yours.

Fredericks: You don't like it, sir?

Minister Dormandy: No one likes it. Apart from blind people; and I'm sure even they can sense its profound ugliness as it passes by.
