Batwoman (2019–…): Season 2, Episode 11 - Arrive Alive - full transcript

Hurry it up.

You lasted three
pathetic days behind bars

before you broke and
tried to bring me down.

I swear, I didn't sell you out.

If you'd taken the fall as I asked,

did you really think
I was gonna let you rot in prison?

I needed you to be my Michelin-star chef.

Ever since Ocean's disappearance,
we've had issues with quality control.

He always said the
Snakebite formula was toxic

if it wasn't cooked using
his "secret method."

I can help you.



Well, our final ingredient
will be delivered soon.

And if I've gone through
all this trouble just

to find out you can't
cook after all, well...

at least I have what I need
to dissolve your body.

Look, we don't know much,
but the good news is I think she's alive.

- You didn't find a body?
- It was an ambush.

We found the bodies of the agents,
but Angelique was gone.

Okay, okay. So False Face got her.
Where did it happen? Descriptions? Plates?

Ryan, leave this alone. False Face
is dropping bodies all over Gotham.

Will you let me help you?

How? How can you help us?

I know Angelique the best.

Stand down and let me do my job.
I'll call you when I have news.

Crowphie says Ang
was kidnapped by False Face.



Damn it, if Ang had just let me help her.

Ang said
False Face wanted her to cook Snakebite.

Yeah, that's why she tried to get out.
She didn't want that life.

Well, they still want it for her.

Eyewitnesses reported that two cars
ambushed the SUV that Ang was inside.

Hours later, those cars were involved
in a heist at Gotham Pharmaceutical.

They're stocking up on supplies.

Do they need anything else?

The one ingredient that wouldn't be
at that warehouse is Fear Toxin.

They'll hit somewhere else.
Can you trace them?

I flagged them in the
city grid. As soon as

either one makes an
appearance, you're up.

Good. I'll be ready.

You gonna loop in Sophie?

So Ang could slip
through her fingers again?

Not a chance.

Dr. Rhyme?

From the look of things.

I'm Jackson, your new patient.

Ah, yes. My 5:30. Please, sit down.

I am sitting.

Yikes.

This is very disturbing.

You mean, my divorce?

I can read between the
lines, you sick puppy.

Who hurt you?

I am so sorry I'm running late.

What's going on here?

Lost cause. I saved you the headache...

Enigma.

You were working with Julia Pennyworth.

And I appreciate you
sending her on a long... vacation,

because I need some alone time with you.

Safiyah hired me
to erase your memories of Ocean.

You're obviously here to get them back.

I assume that's what this is all about?

From what I recall, you were in love,

I made you forget your feelings,
and consequently helped turn you into...

you.

Keep them. I don't need the hassle.

And why did you track me down?

I have someone else I need to forget.

My sister...

Kate.

Don't deviate from your individual route.

You have four minutes to reach pickup,
or we'll consider you burned.

See you at the finish line.

♪ Can't stop me now ♪

♪ What's up danger ♪

♪ -What's up danger, what's up danger
- What's up danger ♪

♪ Don't be a stranger ♪

♪ What's up danger, danger ♪

Tell me where they're going.

You have no idea what you've just done!

I'm burned.

Thanks a lot.

Excuse me? No, it's not my fault
you stole the car I was looking for.

I was undercover.
We ID'd the driver

and arrested him so
I could switch places.

Are you in the
middle of the heist?

Get in the car and drive.

I told you, I'm burned.

Black Mask
gives out the location on these phones

minutes before the heist begins,

and he only gives the drop-off info
after the pickup is complete.

And if you show up late...

They know something's up and abort.

Everything was on the phone.

And now it's wiped and I got nothing.

You're the one who said
we'd never be partners.

Stay out of my business.

You are alive because you have
an uncanny ability to erase memories.

And as much as my dear sister
is very much deceased in reality...

she lives on...

in here.

I've been having hallucinations of her.

What does she look like?

The way she did when we were 13...

before everything changed.

Do you understand why
she appears to you as a child

and why that means you shouldn't erase her?

You are working pro bono here, doc.

Why don't we skip the diagnosis
and go straight to the treatment?

Because you're asking me
to excise a person from your memory

who's been in your life
since you shared your mother's womb.

Whether you admit it or not,
Kate matters to you.

Erasing her
will radically change your personality.

Yeah. I'll stop hallucinating.

Kate's memory isn't a
cancer inside your brain.

In fact, I believe she's
your last moral compass.

Well, I'd hate to lose that.

You are a monster, Alice.

But you're rational.

Imagine if you were
at the mercy of every dark impulse.

Is that what you want?

I am not into self-reflection.

And considering this
is apparently your doing...

I'd say you owe me.

Okay, but we have to do this safely.

So...

you need to confront Kate
and make these visions disappear.

Then, in theory,
I can wipe her from your memory

without completely
fracturing your psyche, huh?

It's the only way this might work.

Now, see, that
is a positive attitude.

Okay.

Commander, I have an update. I...

Agent Moore.

Agent Tavaroff and I
were just discussing

your False Face
operation. What's the latest?

Unfortunately, Batwoman interfered
and they aborted the whole thing.

Do you have a line on the other drivers?

Not yet.

Black Mask executed three Crows agents.

If he gets away with that,
it will be open season on us all.

That'll be all, Tavaroff.

Yes, commander.

I'll find another way in.

You put yourself
behind the wheel of a heist car?

I didn't have time
to bring another agent up to speed, sir.

Do you wanna know my theory?

I think you guaranteed
your informant she'd be safe

and now Black Mask has her.

You're making it personal,
and it's gonna get you killed.

- I'm doing my job. I...
- So am I.

Effective immediately, I'm putting
Agent Tavaroff in charge of the operation.

Sir, respectfully...

Russell Tavaroff shouldn't be leading a
hostage recovery. He'll go in guns blazing.

False Face declared war on us,
not the other way around!

I am not letting you throw yourself
in front of a bullet for Angelique Martin.

She picked her side.

Commander, what is this actually about?
You've been really off...

Get out!

Get out!

My lead on
Angelique didn't pan out.

That's it? You're giving up?

Kane sent me home.

Got my cover blown by Batwoman,
but somehow that's my fault.

Come on, Soph, this is BS.

Ryan, I don't want to freak you out...

but the new guy who's taking the lead,

he is going to scorch the earth
to take down False Face...

and that includes Angelique.

Okay. Does this guy
know where Angelique is?

- It's only a matter of time.
- Okay. Well, we need to find her first.

What I need is an undercover asset

who can drive a car
like she just qualified for the Indy 500.

Why is that?

False Face is planning
another Fear Toxin

heist just as soon as
he finds a new driver.

Oh, no. No way.

Come on. I am good. I can prove it to you.

Girl, it is way too dangerous.

Okay. So is sitting here
feeling sorry for ourselves

when a homicidal drug lord
is using my ex to cook his dope.

Look...

you and I got Ang into this mess.

We need to find her before your Crows do.

What other options have you got?

Now take a deep breath, Alice.

What is that?

What do you feel?

Don't be a smartass, just answer quickly.

A warm hand.

Good.

Go figure.

So you want me to leave you alone?

Turns out, you're a paradox.

You gave me the idea
to erase Kate in my mind. Kudos for that.

But you also happen to be Kate,
so there's the door.

What am I missing?

- Stop that!
- Make me.

You always thought
you knew me better than I knew myself.

That's why you're so scared of me.
I can see you have so much love to give.

You would see it too
if you'd just look at yourself.

You condescending little know-it-all.
Do you want to know who I really am?

A manipulator.

I wanted you to think
I loved you as much as you loved me,

because that's what sisters do,
but I felt nothing for you.

For anyone.

You're not remembering right.

I should have told you the truth.

I was born with this bad brain,
and it is only capable of hate,

and jealousy, and bitterness.

That's not true.

You wouldn't have taken
so many bullets to save me.

Beth...

I'm your sister.

And I'll always believe in you.

Thanks, sis.

That means a lot to me.

Except it doesn't because you're dead.

Master manipulator with no feelings.

Give me a break.

Isn't she so silly?

No, no, no. I just got rid of you!

Doctor?

I'm beginning to think
you're toying with me.

Ooh-woo!

Nice.

Okay, okay. Let me see.

Mary was sweet enough to lend us her car,

but if there is so much
as a bug on the windshield after this,

she made it clear
that we will both end up in the trunk.

Look at all these... cylinders.

Can I take her for a spin?

I got some info from the last driver
on how he was hired.

You'll have to run
through a series of street racing moves.

No way of knowing what they'll be.

- Piece of cake.
- They're gonna interview you.

You'll have to know everything
about this car and how to maneuver it.

Okay, okay. Well...

we got the gas pedal.

I'm kidding, okay?

Do you know what redlining is?
What backpedaling means?

How to measure your camber and airflow?

Are you helping me? Or are you just
looking for an excuse to call this off?

I just want this to work.

We are going to get Ang back, okay?

I'll do my part, I'll study.
What happens after they hire me?

You'll wait for the
coordinates of the pickup.

They'll put the payload in your car,
and on your way to the drop-off,

you pull over and place the tracking device
inside the Fear Toxin canister.

That will lead us to Angelique.

Okay. When's the interview?

Without the Crows, I had to reach out
to someone for help setting it up.

But don't worry, he's trustworthy.

Ryan, is it?

Look here.

No problem, Larry.

- Luke.
- Luke. Sorry, sorry.

No worries.

- You're Mary's roommate, yeah?
- Uh-huh. You know what?

- I actually think I served you here once.
- Oh.

- Shirley Temple, right?
- I don't think that was me.

Can we save the
getting-to-know-each-other part for later?

Come on.

Yeah.

All right. I just deployed
your false identity.

"Robyn Wilde"?

Yeah. It's harder to screw up
if it's close to your real name.

So you are a fast-and-furious getaway
driver with a rap sheet 10 miles long.

And I'm gonna spoof a text message
from a known False Face associate

recommending you for the job.

And...

done.

Luke, I owe you one. Thanks.

No problem.

I'm gonna go gas up the car.

What's this?

Comms for us to communicate
without Sophie knowing,

a tracker to place on the Fear Toxin, and
a portable version of the Batmobile's AI.

AI? What AI?

You didn't notice
I installed it with the new paint job?

What?

I thought my driving skills
were getting better.

Yeah, no.

Hook it up to Mary's ride
so you don't bounce off too many walls.

Fine.

Hey.

I'm just gonna say it.

I realize Ang is in trouble...

but you teaming up
with Sophie like this, these lies...

it's a bad idea.

She's gonna figure out
who you are. She's smart.

She still thinks I'm
lucky not to be in jail.

I'll be fine.

You said confront Kate.

So I destroyed
that little snot-nosed

twerp, and then Ocean
comes in and ruins it.

I wasn't even thinking about him.

When Safiyah ordered me
to erase your memories of Ocean,

you begged me not to do it.

"Begged"? Either you're
being dramatic or I was.

Ocean came back into your life
and unlocked a piece of your memory,

which is proof that Kate,
your subconscious, was correct.

You are capable of emotion and attachment.

Do you want to know why you're wrong?

Because I killed Ocean...

and I felt... nothing.

So rip these hideous ghosts out of my mind!

♪ I like it dangerous ♪

♪ Yeah, yeah, yeah ♪

Not impressed?

Come on. I just did a 360
and drifted the entire width of the tarmac

like Fast & Furious: Gotham Drift.

What's the horsepower on your ride?

She came with a standard 1500
until I tuned the ECU.

Now she tops out at 1774.

Speed?

I've hit 305, but I can
push her in a pinch.

First drop's tonight.

Kind of waiting
for an important phone call here.

We got a problem.

FAA says there's an unknown drone
in the sky above you.

It's gotta be False Face.

If you pull over to plant that tracker,
they'll see it. We gotta call this off.

We won't get another chance at this.

Maybe I can do it without stopping.

Fear Toxin canisters
are double-sealed, unstable.

If you inhale even
one breath of the stuff...

Can you just trust me on this?

No. Abort.

Abort, Ryan.

Hey, Luke, exactly
how intelligent is my AI?

You'll be fine.
It works on remote, like your Batmobile.

I'm really missing my Batsuit right now.

You have the cargo. You have your route.

If you're late, we'll consider
you burned. See you at the finish line.

When can you take over again?

I just need a little more time. Hold

Tracker is on.

Who's the best
driver in all of Gotham?

Oh, that's me. Sophie?

Come bow down to your girl.

- Ryan?
- Hey, where's Sophie?

She asked for the tracker data
and told me to meet you guys here.

Oh, she ditched us for the Crows?

No, no, no. She...

She was too worried
they'd storm the place and kill Ang.

She's taking on False Face herself.

Cut deeper this time.

I want Ocean gone.

Shut your eyes.

Take a deep breath.

Focus on what your senses are telling you.

What you hear...

what you feel.

Oh, that happened fast.

It's almost like you'd
rather be here with me.

Are we sure we're in my subconscious?
What am I doing in Ocean's sex dream?

I'm guessing you brought me here...

- to apologize.
- Ugh.

Why'd you kill me?

Wouldn't you like to know.

You killed me for nothing.

You would've done the same to me.

No. No chance in hell.

There's screwed up, and then there's you.

Is this real? This feels real.

You tell me. I thought
you said you killed him.

I'm alive and very pissed off.

I stabbed you. I... I watched you die.

Let's roll through the replay.
Safiyah wanted me dead.

She enlisted a woman
who can twirl a balisong in her sleep,

but insisted you use
one of her knives instead.

- She dipped the blade in Desert Rose.
- Mm.

Didn't I say... you're a crappy assassin?

Don't tell me you're working for Safiyah.

Her fancy out-of-network
lobotomist stole our memories.

We deserved worse.

I betrayed my sister.

I jeopardized my entire island's safety
because of you, an outsider.

I'm in Gotham on other business,
but I thought I'd track you down,

look you in the eye and ask you myself:

- Why'd you do it?
- Why'd you do it?

I'm relieved my other victims
can't ask me the same.

Alice...

I need to know.

If I regret it?

If I thought of you...

every day since Coryana?

It was the only way I
could get my sister back.

See? Manipulator.

Mockingbird Anew.

What did you do?

The one thing
I promised Safiyah I would never do.

You'll be fine in a few minutes.

Ciao.

You'll forget all about Ocean
and your love for each other.

Safiyah, no. You can't do this.

I remember us.

Hi.

Everything.

She's unlocking our memories.

♪ You shouldn't be here ♪

Where's Angelique?

Oh, no, no.
You're not the one asking the questions.

How'd you find this place?

Why did you come here alone?

If I only kill one Crow today,
I'll fall asleep depressed.

I have eyes on Crow's headquarters.

There's no activity,
there's no strike team being mobilized.

You did come here alone, didn't you?

They're on their way.

It's funny. When I told the Bat
how personal this was to me,

I thought the Crows
would take me more seriously, not less.

Oh, she didn't tell you?

Well, that's an embarrassing
lack of coordination.

- We'll work on it.
- No, you won't.

I don't know how you found this facility,

but it's important to me
that you're not followed.

Don't worry, though.

I'll make sure we dump your body
somewhere they'll find it.

Come on.

So this is how it goes, huh?

She saves you, you save her? Sweet.

But now, who's left to save you both?

We're tired of your crap.
We don't need anyone else saving us.

Angelique. Where is she?

I'll be happy to show you.

Wave hello to your fans, Angelique.

Hey. I need you to watch
as these two let me go.

And if they don't...

I need you to shoot her.

Now, that is some terrific branding,

but you should really
consider bringing a gun to a gun fight.

Sorry for the delay
getting these delivered.

Minor catastrophe at my warehouse.

Mondays, you know?

Things better here?

Just finished the first cook.

This is all new equipment, and I want
to talk about how we should roll it out.

Well, I thought we might allow you
to be the ceremonial first recipient.

Actually... I'm sober.
You don't want me to lose my time, do you?

Couldn't care less, my dear.

Wait!

I was Ocean's assistant,
but he never gave me the full technique.

I had to guess.

- And...
- And this formula could be deadly?

You are an endless disappointment.

I'll help you find Ocean.

How'd you know where to find me?

Got lucky.

Safiyah gave me Enigma's info
to use it if I needed help on my mission.

So when I called the doc yesterday,
she said someone was tracking her...

that her identity might be blown.
Figured it was you.

And this super-secret mission
Safiyah's sent you on?

You destroyed
all of the Desert Rose on Coryana.

She really didn't have,
like, a seed bunker or something?

Never thought we needed one.

That island had been safe for
hundreds of years until you came around.

Put that up on my wall.

Safiyah thought
our family's legacy was destroyed,

until I told her there was one plant left.

The one you stole?

Do you know where it is?

Safiyah thinks Batwoman has it.

That's why she's not dead
from Kryptonite poisoning.

Look... I made my feelings
very clear on Coryana.

Both times.

You've been... harder to read,

what, with the stabbing and all.

Do you regret it?

- Does it matter?
- Answer the damn question.

I had a world-class shrink
tell me that I was a monster today, so...

Do... you... regret it?

Are you not hearing me?

I literally had it in me
to stab a knife through your heart.

So?

So...

just in case I get the
urge again, we should...

probably get something out of the way.

I think we've got everything we need here.
We'll meet you back at the lab?

Thank you. I'll be a
few minutes behind you.

You'll be fine. It
works on remote, just like your Batmobile.

Oh, I'm really
missing my Batsuit right now.

Oh, my God.
