...good question, Scout. I'm glad you've asked. Though, ah---if you don't mind, I would prefer that the details be kept strictly off the record. I could get in trouble, after all, scheming something with an officer of the law.

Besides. We all know where that got me last time.

[Though he's trying to joke, it's true. Considering that Scout could very well turn Edward in for his plans and take an eye for an eye, the Riddler needs to know that he can trust this scrappy young officer with the plan.]
