Batwoman (2019–…): Season 3, Episode 7 - Pick Your Poison - full transcript

PREVIOUSLY ON BATWOMAN...

I'M POISON IVY.
I NEARLY KILLED SOMEONE,

AND I DON'T KNOW WHY
OR WHEN THIS INFECTION

IS GONNA MAKE ME
TRANSFORM AGAIN.

MARQUIS IS SICK.

THERE WAS...
AN INCIDENT.

THE JOKER HAD
THIS ZAPPER
ON HIS HAND.

HE PRESSED IT AGAINST
MY SON'S FOREHEAD.

AFTER THAT DAY,
HE WAS DIFFERENT, DARK,

HORRIFYING.

YOU FIGURED OUT SUNLIGHT
WAS MY TRIGGER.



-UNH!
-AAH!

DAD, HELP! HELP ME!

YOUR DAD'S GONE,
LUKE.

I TOOK OUT
YOUR FAILSAFE.

WHAT UP, SIS?

READY TO BLOW UP
THE GOTHAM
BUSINESS WORLD?

WELL, WE GOT TO MAKE UP
FOR SKIPPING

THAT REBELLIOUS
TEEN PHASE.

GUESS THIS IS WHAT
IT WOULD HAVE FELT LIKE

SNEAKING OUT OF THE HOUSE
UNDER JADA'S NOSE.

YEAH, BUT INSTEAD
OF SMOKING BLUNTS
IN THE POOL HOUSE,

WE'RE PLANNING
A CORPORATE MERGER
BEHIND HER BACK,

A TRUE FAMILY
BUSINESS.

SO HOW DO YOU PROPOSE
WE MAKE THIS HAPPEN



IF YOU DON'T THINK
JADA WILL EVER GO FOR IT?

WELL, THE FIRST THING
THAT WE GOT TO DO

IS PROPOSE A PLAN
THAT EVERYONE LOVES,

THEN USE THE ELEMENT
OF SURPRISE.

LEAVES OF 3,
STAY AWAY FROM ME.

GOTHAM'S BOTANICAL GARDEN
WAS THE SITE

OF SOME HORTICULTURAL HIJINKS
THAT SOURCES SAY

BEAR A STRIKING RESEMBLANCE
TO THOSE

OF GOTHAM SUPERVILLAIN
POISON IVY.

THE TOXIC TROUBLEMAKER
OTHERWISE KNOWN AS PAMELA ISLEY

HASN'T BEEN SEEN
IN OVER A DECADE,

BUT JUDGING BY THE SIZE
OF THE VINES FOUND AT THE SCENE,

AUTHORITIES CAN'T HELP
BUT WONDER IF THERE'S

SOME OTHER ROOT CAUSE,

OR DOES GOTHAM NEED TO
BREAK OUT ITS CALAMINE?

MARY IS POISON IVY?

WELL THAT DEPENDS.
SHE'S KIND OF GOT

A JEKYLL AND HYDE
THING GOING ON,

SO AT NIGHTTIME
SHE'S FINE,

BUT WHEN THE SUN
COMES UP,

THE SWEET AND LOVING
MARY THAT WE KNOW

TAKES A BACKSEAT
TO A VEGETATION-WIELDING
SUPERVILLAIN.

I'M GUESSING MARY'S
WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR ARM.

YEAH. SHE MADE
HER POINT VERY CLEAR

THAT SHE DOESN'T WANT
ME SUITING UP.

SHE ALSO TRIED TO
SQUEEZE THE LIFE
OUT OF BATWOMAN.

NO ONE'S SEEN HER
SINCE.

IS THERE A WAY
TO CURE HER?

NOT YET,
BUT THERE WILL BE.

THERE WILL?
HOW EXACTLY?

JADA HAS THE BEST MINDS
AT JETURIAN ON IT.

I GAVE THEM A SAMPLE
OF MARY'S BLOOD.

THEY'RE TRYING TO
SYNTHESIZE AN ANTIDOTE.

YOUR MOM DOESN'T REALLY
DO ALTRUISM,

SO WHAT'S IN IT FOR HER?

HOW LONG
BEFORE WE CAN BEGIN
THE FREEZING PROCESS?

AS SOON AS MY TECHS
CAN FLUSH HIS SYSTEM
OF ANY INTOXICANTS

OR OTHER
CONTRAINDICATIONS.

PLACING A HUMAN
IN SUSPENDED ANIMATION

IS UNCHARTED TERRITORY.

WE DON'T WANT TO
RUSH THINGS.

THEN THAT SHOULD GIVE YOU
THE TIME TO FOCUS

ON OUR OTHER PROJECT.

WHERE ARE WE
WITH THAT?

WELL, NO ONE HAS SEEN
A PLANT-BASED INFECTION
LIKE THIS

SINCE SWAMP THING.

BUT YOU CAN
ERADICATE IT.

WE'RE SYNTHESIZING
THE ANTIDOTE NOW.

SORRY I DIDN'T
SAY ANYTHING BEFORE,

BUT I COULDN'T SAY ANYTHING
UNTIL MARQUIS WAS IN CUSTODY.

YOU DIDN'T
HAVE TO DO THIS ALONE.

I COULD HAVE HELPED YOU.

HE IS UNSTABLE
AND DANGEROUS.

I COULDN'T RISK
PUTTING ANYBODY ELSE
IN JEOPARDY.

I GET IT.
WELL, I DON'T.

SO YOUR MOM GOT
WHAT SHE WANTED,

AND YOU REALLY JUST
TRUST THAT SHE'S
GOING TO DELIVER

ON A CURE FOR MARY?

WE DON'T HAVE MUCH CHOICE.

JADA'S PEOPLE TESTED
MARY'S BLOOD.

THEY BELIEVE THE INFECTION'S
DOUBLING EVERY 12 HOURS.

AT THAT RATE,

THIS MIGHT BE THE LAST NIGHT
SHE'S STILL MARY.

-WHERE IS SHE NOW?
-I RAN FACIAL RECOGNITION SWEEP

OF EVERY CAMERA
IN GOTHAM,

BUT NO PHONE SIGNAL,
NO CREDIT CARD ACTIVITY.

HERE'S TO HOPING THAT
WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN

SHE'LL CALL US.

IS THAT A HIT ON MARY?

NO. IT'S ALICE.

HER TRACKER SAYS
THAT SHE BREACHED

HER 15-MILE
PERIMETER,

SO SHE'S OFF LEASH
AND HAULING ASS

OUT OF GOTHAM.

YOUR ROOMMATE HAPPEN
TO TELL WHERE SHE WAS

GOING THIS MORNING?

I DIDN'T EXACTLY
GO HOME LAST NIGHT.

GREAT. SO...
MARY'S IN THE WIND,

AND NOW ALICE IS
MAKING A RUN FOR IT.

YOU DON'T THINK MARY IS
WITH ALICE, DO YOU?

♪ HEY, HOT BETTY,
DO YOU WANT TO DANCE? ♪

♪ HEY, HOT BETTY,
WILL YOU TAKE A CHANCE? ♪

♪ BRING IT RIGHT TO ME
IN YOUR DIRTY PANTS ♪

♪ HEY, HOT BETTY,
DO YOU WANT TO DANCE? ♪

♪ HEY, HOT BETTY,
GET ON THE FLOOR ♪

WHY ARE WE
IN A MOTOR HOME?

OH. BECAUSE WE WRECKED
OUR SUPERSEXY SPORTS CAR

FLEEING THE GCPD.

ALICE, WHAT DID YOU DO?

ACTUALLY, IT'S NOT
WHAT I DID

BUT, UH, IF YOU DON'T
REMEMBER,

IT'S PROBABLY
FOR THE BEST.

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO
LISTEN TO?

IT'S YOUR TURN
TO CHANGE THE STATION.

ALICE, STOP.

FINE.

BUT WE WERE MAKING
REALLY GOOD TIME.

I NEED TO CALL
RYAN AND LUKE.

WHERE'S MY PHONE?

OH, YOU THREW IT
INTO THE GOTHAM RIVER

ON OUR WAY OUT.

YOUR IDEA. BESIDES,
YOU MIGHT WANT TO LET

RY-RY AND HER
LITTLE SIDEKICK
COOL OFF A LITTLE BIT.

THEY'RE BOUND
TO BE SORE

FIGURATIVELY
AND, UM, THE OTHER WAY.

IS THIS LUKE'S
BATWING AI?

OH, YEAH. APPARENTLY,
YOU JUST RIPPED IT
RIGHT OFF

AND ALMOST TOOK
HIS ARM ALONG WITH IT.

I SINCERELY HOPE HE'S
NOT LEFT-HANDED.

BUT DON'T WORRY.

IT'S NOT NEARLY AS BAD
AS WHAT YOU DID TO RYAN.

OH, GOD.
I'M GONNA BE SICK.

OH. WELL, YOU'RE IN LUCK.

OUR NEW RIDE HAS A TOILET.

TRUST ME, SISTER.

IT'S NICER THAN THE ONE
IN ARKHAM.

RYAN AND LUKE WOULD NEVER
PUT ME IN THERE.

WELL, IT'S NOT
LIKE YOU GAVE THEM
MUCH OF A CHOICE.

I MEAN, YOU DID TRY
TO KILL THEM,

AND AS FOR RENEE MONTOYA
FINDING OUT ABOUT YOU,

WELL, LET'S JUST SAY
THAT CACTUS IS
OUT OF THE BAG.

I'M GONNA BE A FUGITIVE
FOR THE REST OF MY LIFE.

NO.

JUST UNTIL YOU LEARN
TO CONTROL YOUR POWERS,

AND I'M HAPPY TO
KEEP YOU SAFE
UNTIL THEN.

UHH. JUST OUT
OF THE KINDNESS
OF YOUR HEART?

IT'S FUNNY YOU SHOULD
MENTION MY HEART ACTUALLY.

CURRENTLY, I HAVE
THOUSANDS

OF CREEPY NANOBOTS
RUNNING THROUGH
MY BLOODSTREAM,

SENDING OUT ANNOYING
LITTLE TRACKING SIGNALS,

AND IF THEY CAN FIND ME,
WELL...THEY CAN FIND YOU.

THOUGH YOU WOULDN'T
HAPPEN TO KNOW A DOCTOR

WHO COULD DO A FULL BLOOD
TRANSFUSION, WOULD YOU?

BUT THEN YOU'D GO FREE.

SOMETIMES, YOU NEED TO
PICK YOUR POISON, DEAR.

WHO DO YOU TRUST MORE
RIGHT NOW--

YOUR FRIENDS, WHO WILL
SURELY LOCK YOU AWAY,

OR YOUR SISTER, WHO'S
TRYING TO KEEP YOU FREE?

WHAT'S YOUR TYPE?

TALL, DARK,
AND BROODING.

YOUR BLOOD TYPE.

O NEGATIVE.

YOU'RE ABOUT
HALF A MILE FROM ALICE

WEST ON I-15.

OH, THAT'S WEIRD.
UM, SORRY. SIGNAL'S GLITCHY.

LET ME JUST WIDEN OUT,
SEE IF I CAN GET A BETTER LOOK.

UH-OH.

NOT LIKING THE SOUND
OF THAT "UH-OH."

TALK TO ME, LUKE.
WHAT'S GOING ON?

UH, ACTUALLY, I HAVE
ANOTHER TRACKER GOING EAST NOW.

HOW THE HELL IS SHE
GOING EAST AND WEST?

NO, WAIT. UH, NOW I HAVE
ONE GOING NORTH.

I'VE GOT ALICES POPPING UP
ALL OVER THE MAP.

WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON?

ONLY ONE WAY
TO FIND OUT.

WHOA. BATWOMAN?
WHAT DID I DO?

OH. I'M A BIG FAN.
PLEASE DON'T HURT ME.

OPEN THE TRUNK.

NO SIGN OF ALICE
OR MARY.

OK. WELL, I GOT ABOUT
20 OF THEM HERE,

AND THEY'RE SCATTERING
IN ALL DIFFERENT DIRECTIONS.

I--I DON'T GET IT.

I DO. ALICE KNOWS
WE'RE TRACKING THE NANOBOTS

IN HER BLOOD,
SO SHE'S SPILLING IT

ON VEHICLES HEADING
IN EVERY DIRECTION
ON THE MAP,

AND I KNOW WHY MARY
HASN'T CALLED US YET.

SHE'S WITH ALICE.

AND HOW WAS THE HOSPITAL?

NOT NEARLY AS SECURE
AS IT SHOULD BE.

I GOT IV TUBING,
BUTTERFLY NEEDLES,

BLOOD COLLECTION BAGS
BUT NO BLOOD.

AT LEAST THAT WAS
LOCKED AWAY.

AND YET ONLY ONE
ICED CARAMEL LATTEÉ

THAT DOESN'T LOOK
BIG ENOUGH TO SHARE.

I NEED
THE CAFFEINE, OK?

BEING TWO PEOPLE
IS EXHAUSTING.

MMM. BEFORE YOU CALL ME
A SUCKY FUGITIVE,

I PAID IN CASH,
AND I DIDN'T USE
MY REAL NAME.

OH. OK. WELL, GOOD WORK...
DAPHNE.

NOW I JUST NEED TO FIND
A DONOR.

HONESTLY, I'M NOT PICKY.

ACTUALLY, PICKY IS
EXACTLY WHAT YOU
NEED TO BE.

YOU'RE O NEGATIVE,
WHICH MEANS YOU'RE
A UNIVERSAL DONOR,

BUT YOU CAN ONLY
RECEIVE O NEG BLOOD.

HMM. SO HOW DO WE FIND
THIS, UM, SPECIAL SOMEONE?

HEY.

YOU KNOW WHAT WOMEN
FIND SO ATTRACTIVE
IN A GUY?

IT'S NOT MUSCLES
OR A BIG BANK ACCOUNT.

IT'S...
O NEGATIVE BLOOD.

-BIG TURN-ON.
-MMM.

SHOULD WE DO
A LITTLE CHECKSIES?

UH, I'M GOOD.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT
THE HELL'S GOING ON HERE,

BUT YOU TWO ARE FREAKING OUT
OUR CUSTOMERS

WITH YOUR VAMPIRE KINK
OR WHATEVER IT IS YOU'RE INTO.

YOU GOT TO TAKE IT
OUT OF HERE NOW!

UHH. SORRY. YOU'RE
KICKING US OUT
OF THIS PLACE

SIMPLY BECAUSE WE'RE
TRYING TO EDUCATE PEOPLE

ON THE IMPORTANCE
OF KNOWING THEIR
BLOOD TYPE?

YOU KNOW WHAT, MISS?
YOU'RE COMPLETELY RIGHT.

I AM SO SORRY.
STAY AS LONG AS YOU WANT.

THAT WAS WEIRD.

OH, MARE-BEAR.

IT'S ABOUT TO GET
A LOT WEIDER.

I THINK SOMEONE'S
MIND CONTROL PHEROMONES
JUST KICKED IN.

HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?

IT'S NIGHT,
AND I'M DEFINITELY
STILL MYSELF.

WELL, GET READY
FOR THE MAKEOVER
OF A LIFETIME

BECAUSE THIS MAY JUST
BE STEP ONE

IN YOUR BLEND
TO FULL POISON MARY.

YOU DON'T BELIEVE ME?

TAKE ANOTHER STAB
AT IT.

HEY.

CAN WE GET A BUNCH
OF SHOTS ON THE HOUSE?

YOU GOT IT.

SEE? PEOPLE
ACTUALLY LISTEN
TO THIS MARY,

AND SHE GETS
FREE STUFF.

I THINK I'M GONNA
LIKE HER.

I JUST STOLE
FROM A SMALL BUSINESS,

AND I DON'T EVEN
FEEL BAD ABOUT IT.

YEAH.

WELCOME
TO THE DARK SIDE.

AHH.

LUKE, WE DON'T KNOW
HOW MUCH LONGER
MARY'S GONNA BE MARY.

YOU'VE GOT TO GET
A LINE ON WHICH
TRACKER'S THE RIGHT ONE.

BLOOD CELLS CAN LIVE
OUTSIDE OF THE BODY
FOR UP TO 4-6 HOURS.

WHEN THE BLOOD CELLS DIE OFF,
THE NANOBOTS WILL SHUT DOWN.

THAT'S THE PLAN?
LITERALLY WAIT
FOR BLOOD TO DRY?

HOPEFULLY IT'LL BE
BY SUN-UP

SO WE CAN GET TO MARY
BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.

HEY. NOT TO ADD
TO OUR PROBLEMS,

BUT IF SHE GOES
FULL-BLOWN POISON IVY,

THE MAYOR HAS AUTHORIZED
EXTREME MEASURES.

AT THE TIME, I DIDN'T
REALIZE THEY WERE
TALKING ABOUT MARY.

-WHO'S THEY?
-RENEE MONTOYA.

WHEN DID SHE TELL
YOU THIS?

SO SHE'S THE REASON YOU
DIDN'T GO HOME LAST NIGHT.

YOU WERE WITH HER.

DIDN'T REALIZE I NEEDED
YOUR PERMISSION.

TO SLEEP WITH THE WOMAN
BLACKMAILING ME,

THREATENING ME
WITH PRISON?

NO. OF COURSE NOT.

I AM SO HAPPY YOU TWO
FOUND EACH OTHER.

UH, JUST GOT WORD
FROM JETURIAN.

-THE CURE'S READY.
-COPY.

LET'S GO.

MAMA...

MY HANDS STING.

WHY ARE YOU DOING THIS?

YOU KNOW WHY, BABY.

EVER SINCE THE JOKER
PRESSED THAT BUZZER
TO YOUR HEAD,

YOU HAVEN'T BEEN
THE SAME.

IT WASN'T MY FAULT.

I KNOW...

AND I NEED TO FIX YOU

BEFORE SOMEONE THAT
DOESN'T UNDERSTAND THAT

TRIES TO PUT YOU AWAY
FOR GOOD.

MAMA...I'M SORRY...

FOR EVERYTHING.

I LOVE YOU.

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH.

JUST TRUST ME
ON THIS.

HAVEN'T I ALWAYS
TAKEN CARE OF YOU?

WHEN YOU WAKE UP...

YOU'RE GONNA BE
MY MARQUIS AGAIN.

-AAH!
-RAAH!

AAH! UNH!

BACK OFF.

YOU WANT TO BE RESPONSIBLE
FOR KILLING JADA JET?

I WILL KILL HER.

HUH YAAH!

WHOA!

MARQUIS, WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

DOING WHAT YOU
TAUGHT ME.

TAKING INITIATIVE.

WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED?

MARQUIS. HE ESCAPED.

OH, MY GOD.
HEY. TAKE IT EASY.

DON'T TRY TO GET UP.

I THOUGHT MARQUIS
WAS ON ICE.

WE--WE FAILED.

WHERE COULD HE BE NOW?

RYAN...

HE WENT LOOKING
FOR YOU.

NICE SLING.

MAKES YOU LOOK TOUGH.

IS RYAN AROUND?

I DON'T KNOW
WHERE SHE IS.

-HOW DID YOU GET IN?
-AH. I TOLD THE STAFF

AT THE FRONT DESK
RYAN AND I WERE BLOOD.

HOO. 18-KARAT GOLD NIB,

SATIN LACQUER FINISH.

OOH! PRICEY.

-AND HEFTY, TOO.
-CAN YOU PUT THAT DOWN?

THAT WAS A GIFT
FROM MY DAD.

AH. SHOULD HAVE FIGURED.

YOU KNOW, LUCIUS FOX
ALWAYS HAD THE BEST TASTE.

YOU KNOW, YOUR OLD MAN
USED TO COME BY
OUR PLACE SOMETIMES

FOR MY MOM'S FAMOUS
MOSCOW MULE NIGHTS.

YEAH. WE'D SHOOT HOOPS
IN THE DRIVEWAY SOMETIMES.

-GOOD MAN.
-DUDE...GIVE ME THE PEN.

NO.

THERE A PROBLEM,
MR. FOX?

YEAH. IS THERE A PROBLEM,
MR. FOX?

YOU CALLED SECURITY ON ME?

YEAH. YOU DON'T NEED
TO BE HERE RIGHT NOW.

ALL RIGHT. RELAX.

LUKE AND I WERE
JUST CHILLING

WHILE I WAIT
FOR MY SISTER.

YOU MIGHT KNOW HER
AS YOUR BOSS.

PLEASE ESCORT
MR. JET OUT.

UGH!

HERE'S YOUR PEN.

UNH!

THAT WAS A GOOD SHOT.
YOU'RE QUICK.

I WASN'T EVEN
WARMED UP YET.

OHH! AAH! UGH! AGH!

♪ THESE ARE
DESPERATE TIMES ♪

♪ AND DESPERATE MEASURES
ARE THE PRICE ♪

DON'T LIE TO YOURSELF.

YOU WOULDN'T BEAT ME
WITH TWO GOOD HANDS.

YOU READY TO WAVE
THE WHITE FLAG?

♪ I'MMA GET
REAL HIGH AND REAL LOW ♪

♪ LOSE YOUR MIND

♪ REAP WHAT YOU SOW

♪ UP IN SMOKE

♪ I'M A LITTLE BIT TWISTED

GOOD NIGHT.

YOU ARE SO AWESOME
TO CHECK MY BLOOD TYPE,

BUT WHY ARE
YOU CHECKING MY BLOOD TYPE?

BECAUSE IT'S
IMPORTANT TO KNOW.

I MEAN, IMAGINE
IF YOU WERE IN
A NEAR-FATAL ACCIDENT.

YOU WOULDN'T WANT TO
RUN THE RISK

OF BEING GIVEN
THE WRONG BLOOD.

HEH. PLUS HOW ELSE
WOULD I BE ABLE
TO FIND OUT

IF WE'RE COMPATIBLE?

OH, OK.
THAT MAKES SENSE.

HMM.

IT'S AB NEGATIVE.
IT'S NOT GONNA CUT IT,

BUT THAT'S A VERY RARE
BLOOD TYPE, HIGH IN DEMAND.

YOU SHOULD REALLY
CONSIDER DONATING
YOUR PLASMA.

I'LL GO FIND A PLACE
TO DONATE NOW. OK.

MARY,
THIS IS JASON.

AHEM. JASON AND I
HAVE JUST BEEN TALKING

ABOUT HOW HARD IT IS
TO MEET PEOPLE

ORGANICALLY NOWADAYS.

JASON HAS NO PIERCINGS,
NO TATTOOS,

AND HE'S NEVER BEEN
TO A COUNTRY

WHERE YOU CAN GET MALARIA.

PLUS BONUS.
HE'S A GEMINI.

YOU SAID THERE
WOULD BE WINGS.

OH. TSK, TSK, TSK.

THAT'S BAD FOR YOUR
CHOLESTEROL.

PLACE YOUR HAND
RIGHT HERE.

OH. NOW I WANT WINGS.

OHH! O NEG.
WE HAVE A WINNER.

HA HA HA!

WHAT'D I WIN?

YOU GET TO DONATE
2...3 PINTS

OF YOUR BLOOD
FOR A VERY GOOD CAUSE.

HA! I'M GONNA HAVE TO
CUT YOU OFF NOW.

DR. TUVA DIDN'T
HAVE A SUBJECT

TO TEST THE ANTIDOTE ON,

BUT SHE'S CONFIDENT
THAT IT WILL WORK.

WELL, THAT MAKES
ONE OF US.

I JUST HOPE THERE'S
STILL TIME TO SAVE MARY.

I KNOW YOU DON'T TRUST ME.

I'VE MADE A LOT
OF MISTAKES,

BUT I ALWAYS KEEP
MY PROMISES.

IT SHOULD BE IN HERE.

AAH!

MARQUIS...

WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?

OH! LUKE! LUKE?

CHILL.
HE'S ALIVE. I CHECKED.

YOUR GUARD'S
ANOTHER STORY.

YOUR FIGHT...
IS WITH ME.

I'M THE ONE
WHO BETRAYED YOU.

I GET WHY YOU'D BE
UPSET.

I KNOW HOW AWFUL
THAT MUST HAVE FELT

TO HAVE YOUR SISTER
TURN AGAINST YOU.

HA HA HA!
HA HA HA!

HA HA HA!

-WHAT'S SO FUNNY?
-HEH HEH. YOU.

YOU THOUGHT
I WAS WOUNDED.

YOU THINK I'M ALL
TORN UP INSIDE.

OHH. MMM. SAD FACE
BECAUSE

MY LONG LOST SISTER
STABBED ME IN THE BACK.

-MARQUIS.
-HEH HEH.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO
PRETEND YOU'RE NOT HURT.

RYAN, WHAT,
YOU DON'T GET IT?

THIS IS ME FINALLY
NOT PRETENDING.

I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU
BOUGHT INTO THE WHOLE
SIBLING BONDING CRAP.

YOU KNOW HOW HARD
IT WAS FOR ME TO KEEP
A STRAIGHT FACE?

ME AND YOU
AGAINST THE WORLD, SIS.

HEH HEH HEH.

SO DESPERATE TO
CONNECT WITH THE FAMILY

THAT DIDN'T WANT YOU.

SEE, I WOULD HAVE
THOUGHT THAT YEARS

IN THE GROUP HOME WOULD
HAVE TOUGHENED YOU UP,

BUT YOU STILL FELL
FOR IT.

HA HA HA! WAIT.

THE LOOK ON YOUR
FACE RIGHT NOW,

IT MAKES IT ALL
WORTH IT.

HOLD ON. LET ME
TAKE A PICTURE.

USE THIS
AS MY BACKGROUND.

-YOU'RE SICK.
-NOT AS SICK AS YOUR FRIEND.

YEAH. MOM FILLED ME
IN YOUR LITTLE DEAL
BEFORE SHE BLACKED OUT.

NOT OFF THE RED WINE
THIS TIME.

I DON'T EVEN KNOW
WHAT THIS STUFF IS,

BUT BEING THAT YOU
WOULD HAVE SOLD OUT
YOUR OWN BROTHER FOR IT,

I'M SURE IT'S IMPORTANT,

AND CONSIDERING THAT
MOM'S TEAM HAD
A SUNRISE DEADLINE,

WELL, I'D
SAY IT'S PRETTY
TIME-SENSITIVE, RIGHT?

OHH!

OK. HEH. OBVIOUSLY,
YOU HAVE A PRICE,

SO LET'S GET TO THE PART
WHERE YOU TELL ME WHAT IT IS

SINCE THE CLOCK
IS TICKING.

ALL BUSINESS.
YEAH. ME, TOO,

AND WHAT I WANT IS...

YOUR AUTOGRAPH
ON A RESIGNATION LETTER

OF YOU STEPPING DOWN
AS CEO

OF WAYNE ENTERPRISES.

OH. I ALSO WANT ALL
YOUR STOCK OPTIONS.

OHH!

YOU'RE TRYING TO WAGE
A HOSTILE TAKEOVER.

YEAH, AND YOU'RE
GONNA HELP ME

IF YOU WANT TO HELP
YOUR FRIEND

IN A TIMELY FASHION,

AND I'D SAY YOU GOT
ABOUT AN HOUR

UNTIL SUNRISE.

OH. DO YOU NEED A PEN?

I REALLY WISH I WOULD
HAVE GOTTEN THE CHANCE
TO KNOW THE REAL YOU

BEFORE THE JOKER
DESTROYED YOU.

SEE? THAT'S THE THING.

IF THE JOKER WAS
SO HORRIBLE,

WHY WAS HE THE ONLY ONE
IN THIS DAMN CITY

WHO LOOKED LIKE HE WAS
HAVING ANY FUN?

THANKS.

LUKE, I NEED A DIRECTION.

I'M ALL DRESSED UP
WITH NOWHERE TO GO.

UH, GOOD NEWS,
BAD NEWS?

-BAD NEWS FIRST.
-OK.

MARY HASN'T USED
HER CREDIT CARDS

AND SHOCKINGLY
HASN'T POSTED ON INSTA,

SO I DON'T HAVE
A BEARING TO GIVE YOU,

AND WE ONLY HAVE
42 MINUTES
UNTIL SUNRISE.

OK. YOU BETTER HIT ME
WITH THE GOOD NEWS.

19 OF OUR TRACKERS
ARE OFFLINE,

-SO WE'RE DOWN TO 4.
-THAT'S THE GOOD NEWS?

I DIDN'T SAY
IT WAS THAT GOOD.

SO YOU'VE GOT
A 1 IN 4 CHANCE

OF PICKING THE RIGHT ONE.

OK. LET ME KNOW IF
ANY OF THE TRACKERS BLINK OUT.

LOOK. I'M NOT A DOCTOR,

AND AT POINT ROCK,
MY FIELD DRESSINGS

WERE FAMOUSLY TERRIBLE.

I'M JUST TRYING TO CHANNEL
WHAT MARY WOULD SAY HERE.

SHE'D TELL ME...

SHE'D TELL ME THAT
THINGS CAN'T HEAL
UNLESS YOU LET THEM,

AND SHE'D BE RIGHT
JUST LIKE SHE WAS

ABOUT ME AND THE SUIT.

AND JUST BECAUSE ARMOR
CAN COVER UP A WOUND

DOESN'T MEAN THAT
IT'S NOT STILL THERE.

YOU KNOW WHAT I DID
WHEN SHE TRIED TO HELP ME?

I PUSHED HER AWAY.

BECAUSE I JUST
ASSUMED THAT SHE'D
ALWAYS BE THERE.

WELL, I TOOK MY EYES
OFF ALICE

TO SPEND THE NIGHT
WITH RENEE,

SO IF YOU'RE HAVING
A GUILT PARTY,

MAKE ROOM FOR ONE MORE.

SO THAT'S HOW ALICE
GOT OUT?

YOU AND RENEE ARE
A THING NOW?

WE'RE NOT A THING.

WE HAD A THING,
WHICH TECHNICALLY

DIDN'T EVEN LAST
TILL BREAKFAST,

WHICH SAYS A LOT
CONSIDERING SHE LIVES
ABOUT A G.C. JITTERS.

THAT'S IT. COFFEE.

THAT'S HOW
WE FIND MARY.

HOW? SHE'S NOT USING
HER CREDIT CARDS.

YEAH, BUT IF THERE'S
ONE THING THAT

A SLEEP-DEPRIVED
MARY HAMILTON CANNOT
LIVE WITHOUT,

IT IS COFFEE,
AND...

YEAH. SHE USED
HER REWARDS CARD

AT A G.C. JITTERS
OUTSIDE OF METROPOLIS

TWO HOURS AGO.

THAT'S OUR MARY.
LEAVE NO REWARD
POINT BEHIND.

LOOKS LIKE YOU KNOW HER
BETTER THAN YOU THINK.

OK. SO THE NEAREST
TRACKER TO THAT

G.C. JITTERS
LOCATION IS...

BROWNSVILLE PUB?

ENOUGH O NEG
FOR A WHOLE HUMAN.

IT IS AMAZING WHAT
TWO PEOPLE

WITH NARY A CONSCIENCE

BETWEEN THEM CAN PULL OFF.

I HOPE THIS GOES BETTER
THAN MY LAST TRANSFUSION.

NOCTURNA.

YOU WERE THERE.

RIGHT. YOU MEAN
WHEN YOU SAVED
YOUR OWN SKIN

BY SICCING THAT
OFF-BRAND VAMPIRE
ONTO MOI

BY LURING HER
WITH THE FACT

THAT I HAD DESERT ROSE
IN MY BLOOD,

WHICH WAS ONLY THERE
BECAUSE YOU GAVE MY MOM

THE CHOICE BETWEEN
HER OR ME

WITH ONLY ONE CURE
BETWEEN US?

YEAH, I REMEMBER.

WE'VE COME A LONG WAY,
HAVEN'T WE?

HMM. YOU KNOW,
FOR SO LONG,

ALL I WANTED WAS
FOR YOU TO BE
OUT OF MY LIFE.

I SHOULD JUST STICK
AN EMBOLISM IN YOUR IV

AND FINALLY JUST
BE DONE WITH YOU.

AHEM. HEH HEH.

OR, UH, OPTION "B,"

YOU COULD FINISH
MY OIL CHANGE,

AND YOU WILL NEVER HAVE TO
SEE ME AGAIN.

ACTUALLY, THAT'S
WHAT I'M AFRAID OF.

HARD TO BELIEVE,
RIGHT?

YOU DON'T WANT TO BE
ALONE.

I KNOW THE FEELING.

BUT YOU WON'T BE.

I'M GONNA STAY WITH YOU
THROUGH THIS WHOLE
MARY METAMORPHOSIS.

YOU'D BE A LOT EASIER
TO TRUST IF YOU WEREN'T
A SERIAL KILLER.

A SERIAL KILLER
WHO HASN'T LEFT YOU,

DOUBTED YOU,
OR IGNORED YOU.

DO YOU REALLY WANT TO BE
ALONE RIGHT NOW,

OR DO YOU WANT HELP
FROM THE ONLY FAMILY
YOU HAVE LEFT?

-MARQUIS?
-HI, MOM!

-WHERE ARE YOU?
-RIGHT BEHIND YOU.

HA! MADE YOU LOOK.

WHY ARE YOU CALLING?

TO TELL YOU TURN ON
THE TV TOMORROW,

9 A.M. SHARP,
ANY CHANNEL.

-WHY?
-BECAUSE, MAMA,

I'M GONNA MAKE YOU
SO PROUD.

BYE-BYE, LITTLE ROBO NARCS.

WE'RE GONNA HAVE TO GET
RID OF THESE LATER.

HOW ARE YOU FEELING?

LIKE MY DONOR SHOULD TAKE
AN UBER HOME.

GIRAFFES OR ELEPHANTS?

ELEPHANTS. THEY HAVE
LONGER MEMORIES.

I KNOW WE WEREN'T
EACH OTHER'S...

FIRST CHOICE
IN THE SISTER DEPARTMENT,

BUT I'M, UM...

I'M REALLY GLAD
YOU'RE HERE.

KATE WOULD HAVE NEVER
DONE THIS FOR ME.

HARD SAME.

KATE WOULD HAVE NEVER
LET ME DO ANYTHING.

AT LEAST YOU BELIEVED
I WAS CAPABLE

OF DOING MORE THAN
WHAT EVERYONE ELSE
EXPECTS OF ME.

WELL, I'M GLAD THE NEW YOU
FINALLY AGREES

THAT EVERYONE SUCKS.

YOU KNOW, THE FIRST SIGN
OF SPROUTS,

KATE WOULD HAVE LOCKED YOU
AWAY IN ARKHAM.

YEAH. THEN SHE WOULD
HAVE FELT REALLY BAD
ABOUT IT IN HER JOURNAL.

HEH!

POLICE!
YOU'RE IN POSSESSION

OF A STOLEN VEHICLE!

EXIT WITH YOUR HANDS UP!

UH, THIS WOULD BE
A GOOD TIME TO USE
YOUR PHEROMONE POWERS.

I CAN'T DO IT
THROUGH THE DOOR.

YOU WANT TO OPEN UP?
I DON'T.

STOP!

OH, MY GOD! STOP!

I THINK WE HIT HIM.

I THINK THAT'S
A REASON TO KEEP GOING.

OH, THANK GOD.
I THINK WE MISSED
HIM WITH THE WHEELS.

HE PROBABLY HAS
A CONCUSSION.

HE NEEDS A RIDE
TO THE HOSPITAL.

I'M SURE ONE
WILL COME ALONG.

YOU DON'T NEED TO BE
THAT PERSON.

I CAN'T JUST
LEAVE HIM!

THE OLD YOU
CAN'T LEAVE HIM.
REMEMBER HER?

THE ONE WHO PUTS EVERYONE'S
NEEDS ABOVE HER OWN

AND NEVER GETS
ANYTHING IN RETURN?

THE NEW YOU PUTS
HERSELF FIRST, HMM,

AND LEAVES BEHIND
ANYONE WHO TRIES TO STOP HER.

HOBBIES INCLUDE
LONG WALKS ON THE BEACH

AND NOT BEING
INCARCERATED.

SORRY, OLD ME.
LET'S GET OUT OF HERE.

WE NEED TO DITCH
THE NANOBOTS.

-PUNCH IT!
-CONSIDER IT PUNCHED!

WHOO-HOO!

HOW FAST DOES
THIS THING GO?

WHY'D YOU STOP?

I DIDN'T.

SO CLOSE.

MARY,
YOU'RE GONNA BE FINE.

-WE HAVE A CURE.
-A CURE? HOW?

IT'S A LONG STORY,
BUT WE'RE RUNNING
OUT OF TIME.

IT'S PROBABLY THE LAST NIGHT
YOU'RE YOU, BUT LOOK.

THIS WILL STOP
THE INFECTION.

YOU COULD BE YOU AGAIN.

THE OLD YOU,
THE ONE THEY CAN USE,

THE ONE THEY
CAN IGNORE

UNTIL THEY NEED TO
TROT HER OUT

FOR BATTEAM ASSEMBLE.

YOU KNOW HOW WE
FOUND YOU?

LUKE KNEW YOU COULDN'T
RESIST COLLECTING

YOUR DAMN G.C. JITTERS
POINTS.

THAT'S WHAT BEST FRIENDS
KNOW ABOUT EACH OTHER, MARY.

LOOK AT ME!

YOU WERE THE FIRST PERSON
TO BELIEVE IN ME.

NOW I NEED YOU
TO DO IT AGAIN.

THERE THEY GO,
TELLING YOU
HOW TO THINK.

I DON'T WANT TO END UP
IN ARKHAM.

IT DOESN'T HAVE TO BE
THAT WAY.

PROMISE?

WHAT WILL YOU DO TO ME
IF I DON'T TAKE THE CURE?

I WOULD HAVE TO KEEP YOU
CONFINED UNTIL WE
FIGURE SOMETHING OUT.

WE CAN'T JUST LET YOU
HURT PEOPLE.

THAT'S WHAT I THOUGHT.

WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME?

MARY, I AM TRYING
TO SAVE YOU.

WELL, MAYBE I DON'T
WANT TO BE SAVED.

THIS ISN'T YOU TALKING.

NO. THIS IS YOU
NOT LISTENING.

IF YOU THINK THAT
I'M NOT MYSELF,

THEN YOU DON'T
KNOW ME AT ALL.

HA HA HA!

IT'S TIME I STEP
OUT OF YOUR SHADOW

AND INTO MY OWN SUNLIGHT.

UNH!

WHERE'S MARY?

SHE'S NOT MARY
ANYMORE.

SHE DIDN'T WANT
TO BE SAVED.

BUT WE'RE NOT GIVING UP
ON HER.

YOU DON'T GET IT.

I THINK SHE'S
GIVEN UP ON US.

ALL OF GOTHAM
IS ROCKED

BY THIS STUNNING
NEW DEVELOPMENT.

THE SURPRISE RESIGNATION
OF CEO RYAN WILDER

HAS LEFT WAYNE ENTERPRISES
VULNERABLE

TO A HOSTILE TAKEOVER.

WHAT THIS MEANS
FOR THIS LEGENDARY PILLAR

OF GOTHAM CITY IS STILL
A MYSTERY,

BUT WE ARE STANDING BY HERE
AT WAYNE TOWER,

WHERE WE ARE TOLD
THE NEW CEO OF WAYNE ENTERPRISES

WILL BE MAKING
A STATEMENT SHORTLY.

NOW YOU KNOW
WHY THE BATMOBILE'S
PARKED AT A METER.

NEWS VANS COMPLETELY
BLOCKING THE GARAGE.

YOU WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN
ABLE TO GET IN ANYWAY.

OUR SECURITY CLEARANCES
HAVE BEEN REVOKED.

WE ARE OFFICIALLY SHUT OUT
OF WAYNE TOWER.

WHAT ABOUT THE BATCAVE?

I BARELY HAD ENOUGH TIME
TO INITIATE THE LOCKDOWN,

BUT, YEAH,
THE BATCAVE IS SEALED.

WE'RE NOT GETTING
BACK IN THERE,

BUT WE HAVE THE BATSUIT,
THE BATMOBILE,

AND NOT MUCH ELSE.

I AM SO SORRY, LUKE.

I TRADED AWAY
THE WAYNE LEGACY
FOR NOTHING.

YOU DID IT FOR MARY.

THAT'S NOT NOTHING.

GOOD MORNING,
CITIZENS OF GOTHAM!

I AM HONORED AND PROUD
TO INTRODUCE MYSELF

AS THE NEW LEADER IN BUSINESS.

YOU SEE, AS TIMES ARE CHANGING,

IT IS TIME THAT WE SEE
THE BIG MONEYMAKERS FOLLOW SUIT.

NOW I NOW THIS TOWN
SEES ME AS A BIT

OF A SERIAL ENTREPRENEUR,
BUT AS THE NEW CEO

OF WAYNE ENTERPRISES,

I PROMISE YOU A FRONT ROW SEAT

TO THE BLEEDING EDGE
OF THE INDUSTRY,

WHERE YOU'LL NOT ONLY SEE
INSPIRING INNOVATION

FROM VISIONARY THOUGHT LEADERS,

BUT YOU'LL SEE THAT WE'RE GONNA
HAVE A WHOLE LOT MORE FUN.

WHILE I WAS HIRED
TO FILL THE COFFERS

OF MY SHAREHOLDERS,

MY MAIN MISSION IS TO PUT
A SMILE ON EVERYONE'S FACE.

AS MANY OF YOU KNOW, I WORKED
ALONGSIDE MY MOTHER JADA JET...

MMM. I AM SO HUNGOVER.

THEN AGAIN, I WAS
PRACTICALLY TURNING

INTO THE HUMAN VERSION
OF A LONG ISLAND
ICED TEA LAST NIGHT.

I NEED HASH BROWNS
AND COFFEE STAT.

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY BE
TAKING YOU SO LONG?

YOU KNOW,
AS MUCH AS I MAKE IT
LOOK EFFORTLESS,

IT TAKES TIME TO MAKE
BAD LOOK THIS GOOD.

♪ BREAK AN ILLUSION

MY...HOW YOU HAVE
BLOSSOMED.

♪ AND IT FEELS

I THINK YOUR
DIABOLICAL DEBUT

DESERVES MORE THAN
A ROADSIDE GREASY SPOON.

I DON'T CARE WHAT WE DO
OR WHERE WE GO

AS LONG AS IT'S FUN.

AND NOW I CALL YOU TO JOIN ME
AT THE PEAK OF GREATNESS.

HMM. WELL, HE CERTAINLY
LOOKS LIKE FUN.

♪ BEING BAD, YEAH

GREG, MOVE YOUR HEAD!
