Calculator: Calculator here. Gotham University was going through their archives and unearthed some jewelled cat statues. Guess who likes those? Didn't you guess Catwoman? Aren't you clever. Anyway, her heist has gone south, and there's an opportunity for some grand theft. Willy the Snitch in Otisburg can fill you in.
---------------------------------------
Willy the Snitch: I'll tell you everything you want to know about Catwoman's latest score. But first, you gotta make sure she ain't sneaking up on me. Keep an eye out. She could be anywhere. You looking for information on Catwoman? I'm the cat's meow. The cat's in the bag. Get it?
----------------------------------------
Catwoman: Don't worry, sweetie. What are you? A peeping tomcat? Can't a girl do any honest redistribution anymore without someone dropping by? I warn you, these claws can scratch.

Gotham University Warehouse
Guard: Hello? Is anyone there? Hey! Over here! You gotta break us out! There's something loose in here! Break through the wall and get us out! ... No! They're clawing their way through! Get it off me!
-------------------------
Catwoman: Just what I wanted. A cat's paw. Lend me a hand and fetch the Catseye Diamonds from the jealous kitties guarding them in these chambers. If these relics can turn ordinary people into cats now, I can't wait to see what happens when their jewels are all in place.
----------------------------
Tiger Eye: The hunt is on! Feeding time! ... We will make this world our own. ... No.
-----------------------------------
Guard #2: Hey! You gonna get rid of these cat people so I can finish fixing this pipe? You gotta go in and turn off four valves along the way to open up the gate at the end. But don't breathe too deep. The place is full of fumes.
Cheetah Claw: Ha ha ha! A kitten could do better. Ha! We are divine! (11:57)
Lion Mane: Ha ha ha! My strength rules all!
---------------------------------------
Catwoman: The final piece. Perfect. Now let's see what power these relics possess.
The Spirits of the Relics: You wished to control us. Now we shall control you! You sought to make us submit. Now you will submit to us!
You dare to destroy our ancient might? The speed of the Cheetah controls you. Lunge and destroy!
You cannot destroy what has been unleashed. The stealth of the panther invades your being. Hunts you down.
The power of the lion transforms you. The agility of the tiger possesses you.
Foolish immortals! You shall not possess our powers. Instead, we shall possess you. You shall be our vessel as we enslave this world.
Catwoman: Oh! Those alien creeps possessed me! Well, they're gone now. And the diamonds, too. A pity. When next we meet, I'll have to remember you're the cat burglar able to defeat the gods.
--------------------------------------
Calculator: Pity you had to smash those statues. I believe they're from ancient Hawkworld. I imagine they'd go for a fortune on the black market. On the other hand, you spared us all a case of terminal hairballs. Win-win.
