No more horses, Diana. Maybe you didn’t hear about it, you’ve been away from Themyscira a long time. Your mother and the other one that looks like your mother didn’t go up there and tell you. They don’t ride horses anymore.

It’s a quote of her character Roman Nagel from Ocean’s 13.

I just need to know that this will continue to expand the TPCU (Trading Places Cinematic Universe). Perhaps a cameo from Louis Winthorpe III (or, more surreally, Billy Ray Valentine).

You’ve obviously never served time in a British boarding school.
