Batwoman (2019–…): Season 1, Episode 10 - How Queer Everything Is Today! - full transcript

PREVIOUSLY ON "BATWOMAN"...

TO CATHERINE, A MOST
EXTRAORDINARY WOMAN.

ALICE: YOU SHOULD HAVE
FIRST LOOKED

TO SEE WHETHER IT'S
MARKED POISON OR NOT.

JACOB WOULD NEVER
HURT US.

MARY, VOICE-OVER:
YOU KNOW SHE DIED?

EXACTLY THE WAY THAT
ALICE PLANNED IT.

COMMISSIONER: HANDS
IN THE AIR, KANE.

YOU'RE UNDER ARREST.

JACOB: WHAT THE HELL
IS HAPPENING?

GET YOUR HANDS OFF OF ME!



MARY: YOU HAD SOMEONE
IMPERSONATE HIM,

THE SKIN PIRATE.

I'M GONNA ASK YOU
AGAIN, KATE.

IS ALICE WORTH IT?

HILL: DON'T WANT TO WAIT
AROUND TILL SUNDAY

'CAUSE I'M THE FIRE
YOU CAN'T ESCAPE

AND IF YOU CHOOSE
TO GO MY WAY

I'LL GIVE YOU SOMETHING
MAKE YOU SHAKE IT, SHAKE IT

MAN: WASN'T THAT
OUR TRAIN?

WHAT THE HELL?
THAT'S MY STOP.

HE MISSED MY STOP
COMPLETELY.

HEY, KEANU. SOME OF US
HAVE TICKETS

TO "JAGGED LITTLE PILL."

THAT'S NOT RIGHT.



MAN ON P.A.: ATTENTION,
LADIES AND GENTLEMEN.

IT APPEARS OUR COMPUTER SYSTEM
HAS STOPPED RESPONDING.

WE'VE LOST OUR BRAKES.

THIS IS NOT A DRILL.
BRACE FOR IMPACT.

CONDUCTOR SENT GCPD AN SOS
5 MINUTES AGO

THAT HIS BRAKES
WENT OUT.

NOW AT HIS RATE OF SPEED
AND TAKING INTO CONSIDERATION

THE RUSH HOUR PASSENGER WEIGHT
ON A 650-VOLT, 3-RAIL SYSTEM,

THEY'VE GOT ABOUT HALF A MILE
OF TRACK

BEFORE THEY GET
TO THE END OF THE LINE.

YOU DIDN'T HEAR
A WORD I JUST SAID,
DID YOU?

KATE: I LOVE
THIS BIKE!

FIGURED YOU COULDN'T
EXACTLY HAVE THE SAME
RIDE AS KATE KANE.

AGREED, BUT IT'S
NOT MY BIRTHDAY
FOR TWO DAYS.

BIRTHDAY?

YOU HAD NO IDEA.

UH, YEAH. SO THE NEXT
STOP SHOULD BE--

GOT IT!

MAN: LOOK OUT!

HILL: OH, YEAH

I GOT YOU, MA'AM.

MA'AM?

OH, BOY.

HILL: ON THE UPSIDE

VESPER: GOOD MORNING, GOTHAM.

AFTER THE DEATH
OF OLIVER QUEEN,

I THINK WE ALL NEEDED
A REASON TO SMILE,

AND WE'VE BEEN GETTING
IT ALL WEEK.

A BOMBSHELL CAPED CRUSADER

AND A COP
WITH CHRIS EVANS VIBES?

TALK TO ME, GOTHAM.

ARE WE SHIPPING THESE TWO
OR WHAT?

CONGRATS. YOUR STREET CRED'S
OFF THE CHARTS RIGHT NOW.

OFFICER SLAM BRADLEY
IS AS HOMETOWN HERO
AS IT GETS.

WHY IS THIS GUY
SUDDENLY EVERYWHERE
THAT I AM?

THE GCPD's PROBABLY
STEPPING UP THEIR GAME NOW

THAT THE HEAD
OF THE CROWS IS IN JAIL.

OH. HEH. SLAM IS
MR. MARCH

IN THE ANNUAL HUNKS
OF THE GCPD CALENDAR.

THE HANDCUFFS ARE
A NICE TOUCH.

I GOT TO SAY
I CAN'T REALLY BLAME PEOPLE

FOR SHIPPING YOU
AND CAPTAIN AMERICA.

HAVE WE NOT HAD
THIS CONVERSATION?

I'M VERY, VERY GAY.

HAVE YOU NOT SEEN
BATWOMAN?

MAJOR STRAIGHT VIBES.

KATE, IT'S NOT
A TOTAL NEGATIVE.

THAT I'M APPARENTLY
DATING MR. UNDERWEAR

THAT LEAVES NOTHING
TO THE IMAGINATION?

THAT GOTHAM'S CONFUSED.

IT'S MISINFORMATION.
THE LESS THEY KNOW
ABOUT YOU,

THE EASIER IT IS TO KEEP
YOU A SECRET.

A TRAIN LOST
ITS BRAKES,

AND I SAVED 450 PEOPLE
FROM SMASHING

INTO A CONCRETE WALL,

AND ALL GOTHAM
CARES ABOUT

IS BATWOMAN'S
SEX LIFE.

THEY JUST WANT TO
SEE HER HAPPY.

WELL, TOO BAD BECAUSE
SHE'S NOT.

ALICE: "FILL UP
YOUR GLASSES
A QUICK AS YOU CAN

"AND SPRINKLE
THE TABLE

"WITH BUTTONS
AND BRAN.

"CATS IN THE COFFEE
AND MICE IN THE TEA,

AND WELCOME QUEEN ALICE
WITH 30 TIMES 3."

OH, CATHERINE,
DO TELL ME

IF IT'S TOO WEAK.

WHAT'S THAT, DEAR?

TOO BITTER.
THEN IT'S PERFECT.

NOW BACK TO SLEEP.

NIGHTY NIGHT.

SUCH A SHAME
OUR DEAR SISTER

COULDN'T JOIN US
TODAY.

GUESS THAT WOULD
REQUIRE HER TAKING
ONE OF YOUR CALLS

OR ANSWERING A TEXT...

OR A LETTER

OR A CRYPTIC GIFT.

OH, SHH! YOUR TEA'S
GETTING COLD.

I'M GETTING COLD.

PERHAPS WE SHOULD RESUME
THIS WHEN THE CONDITIONS

ARE MORE FAVORABLE
TO CELEBRATION.

CATHERINE HAMILTON
IS DEAD.

CATHERINE HAMILTON
IS DEAD.

THE SUNSHINE IS
IMPLIED.

LOOK, ALICE.

I KNOW YOU HAVE
THIS FANTASY

THAT THE 3 OF US
ARE GOING TO BE
A FAMILY ONE DAY,

BUT KATE DOESN'T.

I KILLED OUR
MUTUAL ENEMY
FOR HER.

SHE'LL COME AROUND.

THAT'S NOT A GESTURE
OF LOVE TO HER.

IT'S A WEAKNESS.

IT'S ANOTHER STRAND
IN YOUR UNRAVELING PSYCHOSIS.

SHE DOESN'T SEE
HER SISTER.

SHE SEES A SOUL
IN NEED OF SAVING.

SHE'S THE CITY'S HERO.

THE CITY'S HERO
CAN'T BE SEEN

SIPPING TEA
WITH FUGITIVE DRECK.

AS LONG AS SHE WEARS
THAT MASK,

YOU'RE NEVER GOING TO
BRING HER INTO THIS FAMILY.

HMM.

HEY, GUYS. SO THIS MAY
COME AS NEWS TO SOME OF YOU,

BUT MY INSTA ACCOUNT'S
NOT ACTUALLY A PLACE

FOR YOU TO LIST
ALL THE WAYS

THAT I'M HUMAN GARBAGE.

MY STEPDAD'S A MURDERER,

MY MOM'S COMPANY'S CORRUPT,
WE'RE ALL EVIL.

GOT IT LOUD AND CLEAR,

AND SINCE THERE IS NOT
ENOUGH BANDWIDTH

ON THE INTERNET FOR ME
TO EXPLAIN

ALL OF THE WAYS
THAT YOU'RE WRONG,

I'M GONNA SIGN OFF
FOR A BIT.

BE BETTER
TO EACH OTHER SERIOUSLY.

PEACE.

OH, MY GOD!

SORRY. I DIDN'T
MEAN TO SCARE YOU.

I KNOW, AND YOU DIDN'T
MEAN FOR YOUR TWIN SISTER

TO POISON MY MOTHER,

BUT WE ALL KNOW
HOW THAT TURNED OUT.

I JUST--I WANTED TO
LET YOU KNOW THAT
I PUT IN A CALL

TO HEWITT
AND ASSOCIATES.

I FIGURED THAT
AN EXTRA LEGAL TEAM
WOULDN'T HURT.

YEAH, I KNOW, WHICH IS
WHY THEY'VE ALL BEEN HIRED.

THANKS,
BUT WE GOT THIS.

-WE?
-YOUR DAD, SOPHIE, AND ME.

YOUR DAD HAS EVERY LAWYER
IN GOTHAM ON RETAINER,

SOPHIE BUILT A STRIKE TEAM
TO TRY AND FIND MOUSE,

AND I AM LOOKING
FOR A PLASTIC SURGEON

WILLING TO TESTIFY
THAT FACE REPLACEMENT'S

A GREAT WAY TO FRAME
SOMEONE FOR MURDER.

OK. HOW CAN I HELP?

YOU COULD TELL YOUR SISTER
TO STOP DEFILING
MY MOM'S GRAVE.

WOW. SHE'S BEEN
LOOKING FOR A WAY
TO GET MY ATTENTION.

SHE THINKS THAT I
WANT TO BE SISTERS.

ISN'T THAT WHAT
YOU WANTED?

LOOK. IF YOU WANT
TO HELP,

TELL YOUR SISTER TO LEAVE
MY DEAD MOTHER ALONE.

SHE'LL LISTEN TO YOU,
RIGHT?

OH. WAIT.

MARY, I AM SO SORRY.

I KNOW. I KNOW YOU ARE.
I KNOW YOU NEVER WANTED

TO BELIEVE THAT YOUR SISTER
COULD BE CAPABLE

OF DOING SOMETHING
SO HORRIBLE,
BUT I DID,

AND YOU DECIDED
TO IGNORE ME...

SO I'M REALLY BUSY.

BYE.

OHH.

HERE. PUT THIS ON.

WE'RE OFFICIALS FOR
THE TRANSIT AUTHORITY.

EVER SINCE
THE SCARECROW INCIDENT,

GOTHAM CITY TRAINS RUN
ON AN INDEPENDENT
ANALOGUE SYSTEM.

IN THEORY, THAT SHOULD
MAKE THEM UNHACKABLE.

SUICIDAL CONDUCTOR?

THE GCPD ALREADY
RELEASED HIM.

BLACK BOX DATA SHOWED
NO INDICATION
OF ENGINEER ERROR.

IT WAS LIKE THE TRAIN'S
BRAKE SYSTEM GOT
POSSESSED OR SOMETHING.

PLEASE DON'T
TOUCH THAT.

GREAT. WELL, THAT
MADE THIS HARDER
BY ABOUT 100%.

HMM. THIS HELP?

THAT COULD
THEORETICALLY

HAVE SOMETHING
TO DO WITH IT.

YEAH. IT'S
A PACKET ANALYZER.

IT INTERCEPTS
AND JUMBLES TRAFFIC

AS IT PASSES OVER
A DIGITAL NETWORK.

THE HACKER PROBABLY
USED IT TO HIJACK

THE TRAIN'S BRAKES
REMOTELY.

I LOVE TO DIG
BECAUSE WHEN I DIG

I FIND ALL THE SECRETS
YOU BURY.

-DID YOU JUST GET--
-SAME THING.

IF I CAN HACK
YOUR SUBWAY,

I CAN HACK YOUR PHONE,
COMPUTER,

HOME SECURITY CAMERAS.

DID I GET YOUR ATTENTION?

GOOD. NOW CROWDFUND
MY ESCAPE FROM GOTHAM.

CLICK THE LINK
AND HELP ME RAISE

$5 MILLION BY MIDNIGHT
ON FRIDAY,

OR YOUR SECRETS COME OUT.

IT DOESN'T MATTER
IF YOU ARE A PORN ADDICT,

MASKED VIGILANTE,
OR EVERYDAY JOE SCHMO.

PAY UP, GOTHAM.

MAYOR, ARE YOU CALLING
THIS A TERRORIST ATTACK?

SIR, HOW WIDESPREAD
IS THE CYBER BREACH?

FOLKS, PLEASE JUST
LET ME SPEAK.

FIRST AND FOREMOST,
GOTHAM CITY HAS

NO REASON TO BE ALARMED.

WE HAVE LAYERS
OF CYBER SECURITY IN PLACE,

AND WE WILL CERTAINLY NOT
BE COERCED INTO THE DEMANDS

OF SOME SILLY PRANKSTER.

I ENCOURAGE EVERYONE TO GO
ABOUT THEIR DAILY ACTIVITIES.

AUTHORITIES ARE WORKING
AROUND THE CLOCK

TO ENSURE THAT THIS NEVER
HAPPENS AGAIN.

-YOU'RE KIDDING ME.
-THIS GUY'S GOOD.

IF YOU'RE SO SAFE,
WHY IS THE MAYOR'S

PERSONAL CREDIT CARD NUMBER
SPLASHING

ALL ACROSS THE SCREEN?

GO SHOPPING, GOTHAM.

-WHAT ARE YOU DOING?
-SHUTTING US DOWN.

GUY JUST DOXED THE MAYOR.
WE ARE ONE HACK AWAY
FROM TOTAL EXPOSURE.

WHAT, THIS THING DOESN'T
HAVE A FIREWALL?

GUY JUST HIJACKED
THE SUBWAY,

THE CITY CELL NETWORK,
AND OVERTOOK A FEED
ON LIVE TV.

SO?

SO YOU'RE THE MOST
FAMOUS PERSON
IN GOTHAM RIGHT NOW.

YOU DON'T THINK
YOU'RE THE OBVIOUS
TARGET HERE?

COMING FROM THE GENIUS
WHO PUTS A BAT EMOJI

ON EVERY SINGLE
TEXT MESSAGE.

THAT WAS JUST CODE.

LOOK. CAN'T YOU JUST
USE THIS TO TRACE
THE IP ADDRESS

AND FIND
THE USER'S LOCATION?

I COULD IF WE HAD
INTERNET.

-HMM. HMM.
-DON'T DO IT.

WE CAN'T STOP HIM
IF WE CAN'T FIND HIM.

WE CAN'T STOP ANYONE
IF EVERYONE KNOWS
WHO YOU ARE.

-PLEASE.
-SERIOUSLY, DON'T.

WHOOPS!

5 MINUTES,
THEN WE GO DARK.

-FINE.
-FINE.

MAN: FOOD'S GETTING
COLD, COMMANDER KANE.

WHERE'S YOUR BITE,
PUPPY DOG?

SOME CLASSIC-ASS POETRY
THAT THE MAN

WHO LOCKED UP HALF
THE FOOLS IN HERE

IS NOW EATING OUT
OF THE SAME DOGGIE BOWL.

WELCOME HOME.

HELP YOURSELF.

MARY: SO AFTER ALL THAT,
WE WERE ABLE TO PULL

YOUR HEARING UP
A WEEK BECAUSE
THE LAST THING WE NEED

IS TO START YOUR TRIAL
ON VALENTINE'S DAY

WITH A BUNCH OF JURORS
THINKING ABOUT THEIR
SIGNIFICANT OTHERS

WHILE HEARING THE D.A.'s
THEORY ON HOW YOU KILLED YOURS,

BUT LESS GREAT NEWS--
I'M STILL WORKING

ON FINDING A MEDICAL EXPERT
WILLING TO TESTIFY

THAT FACE SWAPPING IS
TOTALLY A THING.

-MARY.
-DR. KELLER IS SUPPOSEDLY

ON SABBATICAL,
AKA HE'S JUST TOO SCARED

TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH YOU,

AND APPARENTLY,
PROFESSOR VIVEK

IS TOO GOOD FOR US
NOW THAT HE'S BEEN ON--

MARY, STOP.

YOUR MOTHER
HAS BEEN KILLED,

AND GOTHAM THINKS
I KILLED HER.

IT'S INCOMPREHENSIBLE.

HOW ARE YOU DEALING
WITH EVERYTHING?

I'M ENGAGING
IN ESCAPIST STRATEGIES

AS A DEFENSE TACTIC
SO THAT ALL THE WALLS

HOLDING UP EVERYTHING
I KNOW TO BE GOOD AND TRUE

DON'T COME CRUMBLING DOWN
AROUND ME.

MARY, KATE AND I THINK
YOU NEED TO TALK
TO SOMEONE.

LIKE WHO? YOU?

YOU WANTED TO DIVORCE
MY MOM.

YOUR MOTHER AND I
HAD A FUNDAMENTAL
DIFFERENCE OF OPINION,

BUT I NEVER STOPPED
WANTING TO BE YOUR DAD.

I DON'T HAVE TIME
TO SIT AROUND FEELING
SORRY FOR MYSELF,

SO WE NEED TO FIND
ALICE, FORCE A CONFESSION,

AND GET YOU
OUT OF THERE.

SIT TIGHT. I WILL FIND
SOMEBODY TO HELP US.

OK. THE TRACE
ON THE DEVICE WORKED.

THIS PLACE IS DEFINITELY
GIVING ME "MR. ROBOT" VIBES.

BATWOMAN TO BATCAVE.
LUKE?

YOU TURNED
THE COMMS OFF.

SOPHIE: ONE OF YOU NEEDS
TO START TALKING.

WE'VE BEEN SURVEILLING
THIS OPERATION
FOR MONTHS.

UP UNTIL LAST NIGHT,
YOU WERE JUST REJECTS

WORKING FOR A RUSSIAN
HACKING RING, WHO GOT OFF

ON STEALING SOCIAL SECURITY
CHECKS FROM OLD LADIES,

SO WHY HIJACK A SUBWAY?

WE DIDN'T DO THAT.
WE'RE NOT TERRORISTS.

OH, NOW YOU
WANT TO TALK?

SO WHICH ONE OF YOU
CUT THE BRAKES
ON THE TRAIN?

I SWEAR NONE OF US.

MY WIFE TAKES THE TRAIN
TO WORK EVERY MORNING.

I'D NEVER DO THAT TO--

WHICH ONE OF YOU
CUT THE BRAKES?

I PROMISE YOU
ON MY MOTHER'S GRAVE

IT WASN'T US!

IT WASN'T US!

PLEASE DON'T KILL ME.

THEN ANSWER
THE DAMN QUESTION!

I KNOW YOU'RE THERE.

KATE: WANT TO
TALK ABOUT IT?

NOT REALLY.

I GET IT.
MAYBE SOME OTHER TIME.

YOU EVER FEEL LIKE
YOU'RE HIDING
FROM THE WORLD?

I'M LITERALLY STANDING
IN A SHADOW.

NOT SURE WHY I'M
ASKING SOMEONE WHO
CRUSHES ON SLAM BRADLEY

FOR LIFE ADVICE.

TRY ME.

MY HUSBAND LEFT ME.

I'M SORRY.

HE THINKS I'M LYING
TO MYSELF.

ARE YOU?

MAYBE.

OR MAYBE I'M
TOO TERRIFIED
TO DEAL WITH IT.

WE ALL WEAR A MASK.

MAYBE IT'S TIME YOU
TOOK YOURS OFF.

YOU'RE ONE TO TALK.

MARY: OH,
DR. CAMPBELL!

-MARY, ARE YOU OK?
-YES. UM...

I WAS SO
SORRY TO HEAR
ABOUT YOUR MOM.

THAT NIGHT
AT THE GALA WAS
ABSOLUTELY HORRIFIC.

THANK YOU.
I KNOW THAT YOU'RE BUSY,

AND I DON'T MEAN TO
AMBUSH YOU

AFTER A 3-HOUR
COLLEGE LECTURE,

BUT I READ YOUR DISSERTATION
ON SKIN GRAFTS

AND FACIAL RESTORATION
AND WONDERED IF YOU'D
BE WILLING

TO BE AN EXPERT WITNESS
IN MY STEPDAD'S TRIAL.

I'M SORRY. I'M NOT
FOLLOWING.

HE WAS SET UP BY A GUY
WHO MADE A FACE OUT
OF REAL SKIN

THAT LOOKS EXACTLY LIKE
JACOB KANE.

LOOK. I KNOW WHAT
IT SOUNDS LIKE,

AND YOU THINK THAT
I'M IN DENIAL

AND GRABBING AT STRAWS,
AND, YES,

I HAVE SEEN EVERY
EPISODE OF "DATELINE,"

AND I KNOW THE HUSBAND
ALWAYS DOES IT,

BUT NOT THIS TIME.

LOOK. YOUR MOTHER
WAS REALLY GENEROUS

TO GOTHAM UNIVERSITY,
AND I WISH I COULD HELP,

BUT FOR A MAN TO
PERFECTLY RESEMBLE
ANOTHER MAN?

IT'S--IT'S
SCIENCE FICTION, MARY.

I KNOW WHAT I SAW.

SOMETIMES WHEN
PEOPLE ARE UNDER
EXTREME DURESS,

THEY SEE WHAT
THEY WANT TO SEE.

I'M SORRY I CAN'T
BE MORE HELPFUL.

I REALLY AM.

GOOD NIGHT.

UGH.

KATE: YOU TURNED OFF
THE COMMS?

LUKE: WE WENT DARK.

THAT INCLUDES
SATELLITE FEED.

NOW ONCE YOU FIND
THE TERRIER TERRORIST,

I'LL RECONNECT.

UNTIL THEN, YOU'RE
RUNNING SOLO.

PACKET ANALYZER
WAS A DIVERSION TACTIC.

WHOEVER PLANTED IT
REROUTED THE IP

TO SOME
SNOWDEN WANNABE.

SO MUCH FOR HONOR
AMONG CYBER THIEVES.

-AM I A FRAUD?
-YOU STILL HUNG UP

ON THIS SLAM BRADLEY
LOVE AFFAIR?

YEAH. WHENEVER I PUT
ON THIS SUIT,

I FEEL LIKE I'M LYING
TO OUR ENTIRE CITY.

WELL, THAT'S THE JOB.

ACCORDING THE MULTIVERSE,
MY JOB IS TO BE
A PARAGON OF COURAGE.

RIGHT BECAUSE
A PARAGON FINDER
SAID SO

BEFORE THE INFINITE
EARTHS COLLAPSED

INTO A SINGLE
SPACE-TIME CONTINUUM.

I'M SURE IT WAS ALL
VERY EXCITING.

I LIVE IN SHADOWS,
I WEAR A DISGUISE,

AND I LET PEOPLE BELIEVE
THAT I AM DATING
CAPTAIN AMERICA.

WHAT PART OF THAT
IS COURAGEOUS?

KICKING BAD GUYS' ASSES
TO PROTECT YOUR CITY

IS PRETTY DAMN
COURAGEOUS.

YOU SAID IT YOURSELF.
I'M THE MOST FAMOUS
FACE IN GOTHAM,

BUT THEIR IMAGE OF ME
IS NOT ME.

THEY THINK YOU'RE
A HERO, KATE.

YOU ARE.

THIS IS GOING
TO HELP YOU.

IT'S AN ELECTRIC
CHARGE DISRUPTOR.

IT'LL KILL EVERY
ELECTRIC CURRENT

WITHIN A 100-METER
RADIUS FOR 10 SECONDS.

HOW DOES THAT HELP US?

BECAUSE WHOEVER
HACKED GOTHAM
PROBABLY HAS

A FIREWALL ON HER
PHONE STRONG ENOUGH
TO RESIST THIS.

IF WE NARROW DOWN
HER LOCATION,

KILL THE POWER,
HER PHONE STAYS
ON, BOOM.

YOU KEEP SAYING, "HER."

RIGHT. I WAS JUST
ABOUT TO GET TO THAT.

CONSIDER US BOTH GUILTY
OF MAKING ASSUMPTIONS.

SO I DID AN OFFLINE
REVERSE AUDIO MODULATION

OF THE TALKING TERRIER
EMOJI TO ACCESS

THE HACKER'S
ACTUAL VOICE.

MALE VOICE: IF I CAN HACK
YOUR SUBWAY...

FEMALE VOICE: I CAN HACK
YOUR PHONE, COMPUTER,

HOME SECURITY CAMERAS.

IT'S A GIRL,
LIKE, A YOUNG GIRL.

PLAY IT AGAIN.

FEMALE VOICE: IF I CAN
HACK YOUR SUBWAY,
I CAN HACK YOUR PHONE...

YOU HEAR THAT?
LOWER THE VOICE,

-AMPLIFY THE BACKGROUND.
-OK.

IF I CAN HACK THE SUBWAY,
I CAN HACK YOUR PHONE...

RIGHT THERE.
ISOLATE THAT.

YOU HEAR THAT?

THAT MELODIC TONE?

IT'S A BELL.
I RECOGNIZE IT.

I KNOW WHERE SHE
RECORDED THIS.

I KNOW WHERE SHE
RECORDED THIS.

THE MOST VILE, LAWLESS
PLACE IN THE WORLD,

GOTHAM PREP.

MY OLD HIGH SCHOOL.

SOPHIE: WHAT'D CAMPBELL SAY?

MARY: APPARENTLY,
THE PSYCHOLOGICAL

RAMIFICATIONS OF
WITNESSING MY
MOTHER'S DEATH

HAVE CAUSED ME TO
SEE AND BELIEVE THINGS
THAT ARE NOT THERE.

-HE THINKS YOU'RE CRAZY.
-TOTALLY OFF MY ROCKER

JUST LIKE
EVERYONE ELSE.

LOOK, MARY.
IT'S NOT MY BUSINESS,

BUT...HAVE YOU TRIED
TALKING TO KATE?

SHE LOST HER MOM, TOO.
SHE'S BEEN THROUGH THIS.

I KNOW, WHICH MAKES
NOT TRUSTING HER
THAT MUCH MORE TRAGIC.

WE'LL FIND SOMEONE
WHO CAN HELP YOUR DAD.

MY COUSIN WENT TO MED SCHOOL
IN METROPOLIS.

MAYBE SHE KNOWS
A PLASTIC SURGEON.

-OK. THAT'S CREEPY.
-WHAT?

ALICE IS
AT GOTHAM UNIVERSITY.

-ARE YOU SURE?
-THE WOMAN POISONED MY MOTHER,

THEN DANCED
ON HER GRAVE.

YES, I KNOW WHAT
ALICE LOOKS LIKE.

MARY, GET OUT
OF THERE NOW.
I'M SENDING A TEAM.

WHO'S THE TERRIER?

GIRL: WHAT JUST HAPPENED?

I ASKED WHO'S THE TERRIER?

UM, SO NOT ME,
BUT DO YOU MIND?

GIRL: BATWOMAN
CRASHED OUR PARTY.
THIS IS SICK.

DIFFERENT GIRL: OH, MY GOD.
IS SLAM BRADLEY HERE, TOO?

-BATSELFIE. WHAT'S UP?
-NOPE.

-WHAT JUST HAPPENED? HEY!
-WHO BROKE MY PHONE?

-WHO TURNED OUT THE LIGHTS?
-WHY'D IT JUST GO DARK?

WAIT. WHAT DID YOU DO
WITH OUR PHONES?

-WHAT HAPPENED?
-COME ON.

HEY. MY PHONE'S
NOT WORKING, MAN.

WOMAN: ANSWER ME,
ANSWER ME, ANSWER ME, AW

WHAT DO YOU WANT?
I'M JUST A KID
AT A DANCE.

HMM.

MALE VOICE: IF I CAN HACK
YOUR SUBWAY...

FEMALE VOICE: I CAN HACK
YOUR PHONE, COMPUTER,

HOME SECURITY CAMERAS.

A KID WHO HACKED
A SUBWAY FULL
OF INNOCENT PEOPLE.

YOU GOT A NAME?

YOU DON'T KNOW
MY NAME?

THOUGHT YOU WERE
SOME BADASS
CRIME FIGHTER.

PARKER TORRES,
AND I WASN'T GONNA
CRASH THE TRAIN.

MY GRAPPLING HOOK
BEGS TO DIFFER.

I WAS ON IT,
CONTROLLING IT
FROM MY PHONE.

I WAS GONNA STOP IT,
BUT YOU STOPPED IT FIRST.

WHATEVER. IT WAS
A DUMB PRANK.

WHAT THE HELL WERE
YOU THINKING?

I'M SORRY, OK?
CHILL!

I...DON'T...CHILL.

LOOK. I REALLY
AM SORRY.

I JUST THOUGHT
IF I COULD SCARE

MY PARENTS
INTO THINKING
I ALMOST DIED

THEY'D JUST BE HAPPY
I WAS ALIVE

AND FORGET THEIR
DAUGHTER WAS A FREAK.

-YOU'RE NOT A FREAK.
-I AM TO THEM.

I'M, UH...

GAY.

KAYLA MASON
REVENGE OUTED ME

TO MY MOM AND DAD.

-KAYLA MASON?
-MY EX.

SHE SAID BEING
IN THE CLOSET
WAS PREHISTORIC.

I EITHER TOLD THEM
THE TRUTH,

OR SHE'D LEAVE ME.

SHE DIDN'T GET IT.
I COULDN'T

TELL THE TRUTH,
SO WHEN I TOLD HER
TO JUST GO,

SHE WENT NUCLEAR
AND TOLD MY PARENTS
FOR ME.

MY MOM AND DAD THOUGHT
THEY'D BEEN RAISING

SOME BTS-LOVING
HETERONORM.

NOW THEY SLEEP
CLUTCHING ROSARIES

AND WANT TO DISOWN ME.

THAT'S WHY I NEED
THE MONEY--

TO GET OUT OF GOTHAM.

THAT SUCKS,
AND IT'S NOT FAIR,

BUT IT IS NOT AN EXCUSE
TO PUT HUNDREDS OF LIVES
IN JEOPARDY--

MY PARENTS WANT ME
TO BE SOMEONE I'M NOT.

DO YOU KNOW
HOW THAT FEELS?

I HATE MYSELF, OK?

AND LET'S RAINCHECK
YOUR IT GETS BETTER PSA.

WE BOTH KNOW
I'M GONNA GROW UP

HIDING MY GIRLFRIENDS
AND ASPIRING

TO BE REPRESENTED
BY AN ANCILLARY
CHARACTER

ON MY FAVORITE
TV SHOW

JUST LIKE YOU WERE
PROBABLY

THE COOL GIRL
IN HIGH SCHOOL,

AND NOW YOU'RE FAMOUS,
AND EVERYONE'S
SHIPPING YOU

AND THE HOTTEST GUY
IN GOTHAM.

WE HAVE NOTHING
IN COMMON.

IN FACT, YOU PRETENDING
TO FEEL BAD FOR ME

IS KIND OF MAKING
IT WORSE,

SO COULD YOU JUST
LEAVE ME ALONE

BEFORE I FIND
MORE REASONS TO
WISH I WERE DEAD?

SOPHIE: MOORE TO BASE.
JUST SHOWED UP TO GOTHAM U.

SHE SAW HER GO
INTO ROOM 119.

YOU'RE...THAT PSYCHO.

OH. CHARMED
I'M SURE,

AND I UNDERSTAND
YOU'RE THE TERRIER.

RUN, PARKER!

ALICE: DON'T WORRY
ABOUT THE BAT.

SHE'LL COME PLAY LATER.

FOR NOW, BELIEVE
IT OR NOT,

I ACTUALLY NEED YOU.

MMM! I LOVE LIVING
IN A WORLD

WHERE WE
TRUST TEENAGERS
WITH THESE THINGS.

PARKER: WHY ARE YOU
DOING THIS?

BECAUSE MY
INNER MEAN GIRL
NEVER GOT TO

LIVE OUT HER
HIGH SCHOOL
EXPERIENCE.

-AHH!
-I'M LOOKING FOR BATWOMAN,

AND YOUR MORONIC
CLASSMATES TAGGED HER

IN A PHOTO HERE.

KATE: KNOCK IT OFF.

OHH. GOOD.
THE HALL MONITOR'S BACK.

LET THE GIRL GO.

I WILL,
BUT FIRST, I NEED YOU

TO FIGURE OUT THAT YOU
ARE NOT A HERO.

WHAT DOES SHE
HAVE TO DO
WITH THIS?

SHE IS
A VERY IMPORTANT TOOL

IN MY VERY IMPORTANT PLAN,

WHICH I'LL TELL YOU
AFTER YOU DROP

THE WHOLE HERO COMPLEX.

TAKE OFF THE MASK,
BATWOMAN.

WHAT'S GOING ON?
WHERE IS EVERYONE?

WHAT'S THE POINT
OF RUNNING A CLINIC

WHEN YOU CAN'T EVEN SAVE
YOUR OWN MOM?

I'M NOT A DOCTOR.

IF YOU'RE HERE,
I'M HOPING THAT MEANS

THAT ALICE IS
AT ARKHAM.

SHE WASN'T
AT GOTHAM UNIVERSITY.

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

I SAW HER RUN
INTO THAT BUILDING.

WE SEARCHED
EVERY DORM ROOM, MARY.

SHE WASN'T THERE.

MAYBE DR. CAMPBELL
WAS RIGHT.

YOU SHOULD GO SOMEWHERE,
RELAX, GRIEVE YOUR MOM.

YOU THINK I'M
SEEING THINGS, TOO.

I THINK YOUR WORLD
JUST FELL APART,

AND YOU'RE LOOKING
FOR SOMETHING
TO DISTRACT YOU

FROM HOW PAINFUL
IT IS.

LOOK. NO JUDGMENT.

MY MARRIAGE JUST BLEW UP,

AND I NEARLY TOOK
THE WRONG GUY'S
HEAD OFF EARLIER.

WE'RE HUMAN.

WE'D RATHER BE DOING
ANYTHING OTHER THAN
FEELING OUR FEELINGS.

I'M NOT CRAZY.

I SWEAR I'M NOT
IMAGINING THINGS,
SOPHIE.

FINDING ALICE ISN'T
GOING TO BRING
YOUR MOM BACK.

ALICE: WHAT'S WRONG,
BATWOMAN? SHY?

COME ON. SHOW US YOUR
PRETTY, LITTLE FACE.

WHY ARE YOU
DOING THIS?

BECAUSE YOU ARE OBSESSED
WITH SAVING PEOPLE

WHO DON'T WANT
TO BE SAVED.

GIVE UP, GIVE UP,
GIVE UP!

I KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE DOING.

I PUT AWAY THE BAT
SO I CAN JOIN YOU

ON SOME TWISTED
FAIRY TALE.

DING, DING, DING, DING!
HA HA HA!

-AAH!
-TAKE OFF THE MASK, BATTY!

YOU'RE SICK, ALICE.

ALICE, STOP.

AAH! NO!

STOP IT!

DO IT!

AAH!

FINE!

HOLY CRAP.

-YOU'RE KATE KANE.
-THAT WOULD BE ME.

I, LIKE, DRIVE BY YOUR
REAL ESTATE FIRM EVERY DAY.

-H-HI.
-HI.

I JUST READ
"THE ADVOCATE,"

"LESBIAN CEOs UNDER 30."

OH, MY GOD. I WAS SUCH
A BITCH TO YOU EARLIER.

WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY
YOU WERE SUPERGAY?

WHY DIDN'T YOU SAY
YOU WERE SUPERGAY?

KIND OF STILL TRYING
TO FIGURE OUT MUCH
TO TELL PEOPLE.

OK. HELLO! BORING.

CAN WE MOVE THIS
ALONG, PLEASE?

HAPPILY.
JUST LET HER GO.

NO. I MEANT WITH THE NEXT
PHASE OF MY PLAN.

SEE, I'VE BEEN
FOLLOWING YOU,

AND NOW I NEED
CYBER SUNSHINE TO DO

THAT THING THAT SHE DID
WHEN SHE ACCESSES

EVERYONE'S PHONE
ON GOTHAM'S CELLULAR NETWORK,

AND THEN I NEED HER
TO OUT MY SISTER

AS GOTHAM'S
REDHEADED KNIGHT.

DON'T DO THIS,
ALICE.

NO HERO, NO BAT,
NO ONE TRYING TO
CHANGE WHO I AM.

EVERYONE LIVES
HAPPILY EVER AFTER.

AND IF I DON'T,
WHAT ARE YOU GONNA DO,

KILL ME?

YOU NEED ME.
IF YOU KILL ME,
YOU LOSE.

AS DO YOU BECAUSE
YOU'RE DEAD.

I'M SORRY. DO THEY
NOT TEACH MATH
IN SCHOOL ANYMORE?

-ALICE!
-IT'S FINE.

I'M OBVIOUSLY
NOT GOING TO KILL HER.

I WILL KILL EVERYONE ELSE
IN THIS SCHOOL, THOUGH.

I DIDN'T KNOW WHO
TO BRING TO THE DANCE,

SO I BROUGHT C-4.

THEY DO STILL TEACH
SCIENCE IN THIS
SCHOOL, RIGHT?

YOU'RE LYING.

NO, SHE'S NOT.

I'M NOT OUTING
BATWOMAN.

SEND THE MESSAGE,
OR SHE WILL KILL

EVERYONE IN HERE.

IF I OUT YOU,
EVERYONE YOU CARE ABOUT
WILL BE IN DANGER.

YOU'LL PROBABLY BE ARRESTED,
YOU WON'T BE BATWOMAN ANYMORE.

I CAN TAKE CARE
OF MYSELF.

BUT GOTHAM CAN'T!

WE NEED YOU.

IF BATWOMAN GOES AWAY,
THIS CITY'S HOPE

GOES WITH IT.

I THINK I JUST PUKED
IN MY MOUTH.

WE'LL DO IT.

TELL EVERYONE.

FINE.

TTT TTT TTT
TTT TTT TTT

DO DO HMM

WELL, I GUESS WE
FIGURED OUT WHY

THEY CALL YOU
GENERATION Z BECAUSE...

YOU TRY HACKING
10 CELLULAR NETWORKS
WITH ONE HAND.

IT'S DONE. I DID IT.

ALL OF GOTHAM NOW KNOWS
KATE'S SECRET.

IS EVERYONE
SEEING THIS?

ALPHA TEAM, WE'RE ON THE MOVE
TO GOTHAM PREP.

LET'S GO!

DO DO DO DO DO
DO DO DO DO DO

DO DO DO DO DO

-GO.
-MAYBE I DON'T WANT TO.

MAYBE I DON'T CARE.
GO!

NOW WHERE WERE WE?

OHH!

WHAT? HEY!

RIGHT OUT ABOUT THERE.

HOW DO I DISARM
THIS BOMB?

ENOUGH WITH THE GAMES.
YOU'RE NOT A HERO!

IT DOESN'T TAKE
A HERO TO KNOW WHAT
PURE EVIL LOOKS LIKE.

YOU RUINED MY LIFE.

I FIXED YOUR LIFE, KATE.

OUR FATHER DIDN'T
BELIEVE US,

AND NOW HE'S BEING
PUNISHED.

CATHERINE TRIED TO KEEP
US APART FOR 15 YEARS,

AND NOW SHE'S DEAD.

WHAT MORE DO I HAVE TO DO
TO PROVE MY LOYALTY TO YOU?

YOU CAN TELL ME THAT
YOU DIDN'T PUT A BOMB

IN A GYM FULL OF KIDS.

UGH. HERE WE GO AGAIN.
JUDGY, JUDGY, JUDGE, JUDGE.

IF EVERYTHING YOU
HAVE DONE HAS BEEN SOME
KIND OF GIFT TO ME,

THEN TAKE IT
ALL BACK.

WHY CAN'T YOU ACCEPT ME
FOR WHO I AM?

WE'RE SISTERS, KATE.
BE MY SISTER.

WE WERE SISTERS,

AND THEN BETH DIED,

AND THE WORLD WOULD
BE A WHOLE LOT BETTER

IF SHE HAD STAYED
DEAD.

I DON'T BELIEVE YOU.

WHAT DID SHE DO?
WHAT DID SHE DO?!

SHE SAVED
THEIR LIVES.

SOPHIE: ESTABLISH
THE PERIMETER,
THEN MAKE CONTACT.

I'LL NEED A TEAM
TO THE WEST.

THERE'S A FACULTY ENTRANCE
ON THE SOUTH SIDE.

LET'S GET THERE NOW.
LET'S GO, LET'S GO, LET'S GO!

GET OFF THE DRIVEWAY!

THERE'S A BOMB
IN THE HIGH SCHOOL!

GET BACK! TAKE COVER!

-DO YOU KNOW WHAT'S HAPPENING?
-OH, MY GOD!

SLAM: COME ON.
LET'S GO! COME ON.

EVERYONE OUT. GO!
LET'S GO NOW! MOVE!

WELL, SHE SAVED MOST
OF THEIR LIVES.

WHAT ARE YOU
TALKING ABOUT?

NO ONE SAID THAT
THAT WAS THE DETONATOR.

NO ONE SAID THAT
THAT WAS THE DETONATOR.

-WHERE IS IT?
-HMM!

SLAM: LET'S GO.
LET'S GO, LET'S GO.

OH, MY GOD!

NOT HAPPENING.

GIRL: WHY NOT?

IT'S...A...OFFICE.

WHAT WERE YOU
EXPECTING?

LIKE, I DON'T KNOW,
A BUNKER OR SOMETHING.

W-W-WHERE'S
YOUR BATBIKE?

WHAT BATBIKE?

OH. WHAT BATBIKE? TCH.

OW. CHILD, REMEMBER?

COMMUNITY SERVICE
FOR THAT STUNT

THAT YOU PULLED
ON THE SUBWAY

AND THEN DOXING
THE MAYOR.

150 HOURS SCRUBBING
GRAFFITI?

YEAH, AND IF I FIND OUT
THAT YOU'RE STILL HACKING,

YOU'LL BE
SCRUBBING TOILETS
AT GOTHAM JUVIE.

OH, AND YOU'RE
GONNA PAY BACK
EVERY SINGLE PERSON

WHO SENT YOU
BLACKMAIL MONEY.

FINE.

ALICE COULD HAVE
KILLED YOU.

I WAS OUTED
BEFORE I WANTED
MY PARENTS TO KNOW.

I WASN'T ABOUT TO DO
THE SAME THING TO YOU,

AND IF YOU'RE WONDERING
IF I'M GONNA TELL

-ANYONE ABOUT YOU, I'M--
-I'M NOT.

DISMISSED.

OK THEN.
SEE YOU AROUND.

PARKER...

YOU'RE RIGHT.

SOMETIMES, IT FEELS
LIKE IT'S NOT GONNA
GET BETTER,

BUT YOU WILL IF YOU
STOP HATING YOURSELF.

IF YOU EVER WANT TO
TALK ABOUT YOUR PARENTS

OR KAYLA MASON
OR ANYONE, I'M HERE.

THANKS.

YOU KNOW, UM, WHEN
YOU TOOK OFF YOUR MASK,

I NEVER IN A MILLION
YEARS EXPECTED IT
TO BE YOU,

SOMEONE LIKE ME.

I'M GLAD IT WAS.

NO ONE OFFERED YOU
ANYTHING TO DRINK.

GOOD.

CAREFUL, SOPHIE.

WE KNOW HOW THIS JOB
WORKED OUT

FOR YOUR OLD BOSS.

THE MAYOR WAS MORE
THAN WILLING TO HAND
YOU OVER TO ME,

SO YOU'RE GOING TO
SIT HERE INDEFINITELY

UNTIL YOU TELL ME
WHERE TO FIND MOUSE.

HA HA HA!

WELL, LOOK WHO REACHED
COVER GIRL STATUS.

LOOK. I--I KNOW WHAT
YOU'RE GONNA SAY.

IT WAS RECKLESS,
IT LINKS ME TO BATWOMAN,

IT PUTS OUR OPERATION
IN JEOPARDY--

I WAS GONNA SAY
THAT A WHOLE LOT
OF PEOPLE

ARE ABOUT TO FEEL
A LOT LESS ALONE,

AND IF THERE'S
FALLOUT, WE'LL
FIGURE IT OUT.

-HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
-HA!

BAKED IT MYSELF,
BY THE WAY.

TURNS OUT WHEN I'M
NOT ON THE COMMS

I HAVE WAY
TOO MUCH FREE TIME
ON MY HANDS.

YEAH. CAN YOU NOT LEAVE
ME ALONE LIKE THAT AGAIN?

OH. IT'S WEIRD.
KIND OF SOUNDS LIKE
YOU MISSED ME.

-I MANAGED.
-SO THAT'S A YES.

I HOPE IT COMES TRUE.

VESPER: OK, PEOPLE.
TIME TO RECALIBRATE OUR GAYDAR.

BATWOMAN IS A LESBIAN?

NOT THAT THERE'S
ANYTHING WRONG WITH THAT,

BUT TALK TO ME GOTHAM.

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO POLITICS
STAYING OUT OF OUR SUPERHEROES?

WOMAN: SLOW BACK TO...

KATE, VOICE-OVER: WE ALL WEAR
A MASK OF SOME KIND,

A COWL, A HUSBAND, WIFE,
DENIAL, ANGER.

WE ALL NEED OUR SHIELD TO
PROTECT US FROM THE WORLD,

BUT FOR PEOPLE LIKE US,

IT'S NOT ALWAYS
ABOUT STOPPING A RUNAWAY TRAIN

OR DISARMING A BOMB.

WOMAN: EACH BREATH I TOOK
WHEN I THOUGHT THAT I WAS...

OK. AS A DOCTOR,
YOU SHOULD REALLY REMOVE

THE WORD "CRAZY" FROM YOUR
EVERYDAY VERNACULAR.

UH-HUH.

YEAH. THANKS. HAVE FUN
ON THE WRONG SIDE OF HISTORY.

YEAH. THANKS. HAVE FUN
ON THE WRONG SIDE OF HISTORY.

BYE.

WOMAN: WE CAN
ALWAYS BEGIN...

HI.

AGAIN

STANDING...

KATE, VOICE-OVER: SOMETIMES,
THE BEST WAY TO SAVE SOMEONE

IS TO BE YOURSELF.

WOMAN: MOVING FREE
FROM ALL THE PAIN

OF EVERYTHING I'VE BEEN

YOU WERE RIGHT.
MARY JUST REALLY
NEEDED A HUG.

I'M SURE SHE WASN'T
THE ONLY ONE.

YOU TWO ARE GONNA
NEED EACH OTHER NOW
MORE THAN EVER.

YOU'RE ON MY PHONE,
PUPPY DOG.

WE'RE GONNA GET YOU OUT
OF THERE, DAD.

I WISH I COULD BE
WITH YOU TODAY.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, KIDDO.

WOMAN: BEGIN AGAIN

AHH.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

HOW DID YOU GET
IN HERE?

UH, EASY. HEY.
DID YOU GUYS FIRE

THAT HOT
FRONT DESK GUY?

BECAUSE HE WAS
THE BEST PART
OF THIS PLACE.

HI.

I'M BACK.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY.

-DID SOPHIE LET YOU GO?
-WHO?

KATE, I FINALLY COME HOME
FROM A SEMESTER ABROAD,

AND THIS IS HOW
YOU REACT?

IT'S BAD ENOUGH
THAT THEY CONVERTED
MY APARTMENT

INTO A BOYS' DORM ROOM,
AND NO ONE CHOSE TO TELL--

KATE!

UNH!

-WHO ARE YOU?
-WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU?

-OW! OW!
-WHO ARE YOU?!

ME! BETH!

BETH?!

WHO THE HELL ELSE
WOULD I BE?

MAN: GREG, MOVE YOUR HEAD!
