Bruce: What are you doing? Why are you wearing a safety vest?
Jason: I’m the Bat-OSHA inspector
Bruce: Did Duke put you up to this?
Jason: No, I volunteered. Now if you could step aside sir, I’m trying to do my job
Bruce: I’m not going to be able to stop you, am I?
Jason: Nope. Now let’s see, you’ve got literal bats flying around. Stalagmites and stalactites everywhere, that’s a tripping hazard. Nowhere near enough handrails. No marked emergency exists. With all this moisture in the air, this place is basically a brothel for mold. I’m not sure what the proper enclosures for a cow and turkey are, but I know a cave ain’t it. And it’s that a child working in a box I see?
Bruce: Tim is in the “anti-villian enrichment enclosure” that you made for him!
Tim: Hi Jason!
Jason: Hi Tiny!- I hope you know keeping children in boxes is something not tolerated by Bat-OSHA.

“Stop letting rich people explore it for their own vanity and instead fund scientists who know what they’re doing down there, are exploring it for the actual betterment of humanity and their understanding of the world we live in, and won’t go down there in subs that havn’t been peer-reviewed to hell and back” =
