Batman s01e56 Episode Script

See No Evil

Kimberly? Kimmy.
Kimmy.
Mojo, you came back! Sure.
I said I would, didn't I? Look what I got for you.
It's beautiful.
Thank you, thank you.
You're welcome, sweetie.
Don't worry.
I know that what you've really been hoping for is a pearl necklace.
I haven't found the right one yet but Mojo promises he'll bring you one next time he visits.
Kimmy, what's wrong? Next time better be soon, or you might not find us.
- Mommy says we're moving.
- Moving? She says things will be better for us someplace else.
Kimberly, who are you talking to? - Nobody, Mommy, just Mojo.
- Oh, I'm sorry I missed him.
I would've said hi.
- He really was here, Mommy.
- I know, honey, I know.
Now go to sleep, okay? Hey, who locked the bathroom? A most handsome selection, Mr.
Wayne.
I'll take it.
What the devil? Holy smoke! Look! Police, police, over this way! Help! Security! I've been robbed! - Look at that! - What the heck? Nobody moves till we figure out what's going on here.
- Hey, my piece! It's been stolen.
- Mine too.
Footsteps? Who are you? I know you're in here.
Cute.
Real cute.
You were better off blowing smoke, Batman.
See, I guess I'm what you'd call a burnout case.
Too bad about these high ceilings, huh, Batman? I mean, all this lousy echoing kind of makes it hard to get a fix on me, doesn't it? Especially since you wouldn't see me if I were standing right next to you.
See you around, Batman.
Too bad you can't say the same.
A better life somewhere else, huh? Where your dear old dad can't find you, that's what she really means.
Well, don't you worry.
She's never gonna take you away from me.
I won't let her.
You hear me? I won't let her.
Bye, sweetie.
Have a nice day.
I'll be back in an hour.
Hey, babe.
Long time.
Not long enough.
Did they tell you about the parole? - I'm living in Gotham now.
- I don't care what you do as long as you don't do it within 100 feet of me.
The restraining order? You don't need that anymore.
When I was a bum, it made sense, but - What do you mean, "was"? - Come on, babe.
Look at me! How many all-night gas stations did you have to knock over for that? Keep it.
Everything's different now, can't you see that? I can give Kimmy everything she'll ever need.
- You stay away from her! - Come on.
If you could just let her see me Keep your hands off me! I told her all about you.
She knows you're not to go near her.
Helen, please.
Cut me some slack.
I'll give you anything you want.
Want? All I want is for you to disappear.
Okay, okay but just remember the old saying: "Be careful what you wish for.
" I understand your concern, Mr.
Wayne.
But you don't need to worry that Waynetech is responsible for this invisible man.
After all, no equipment is missing.
But I seem to remember last year hearing something about an invisibility project.
You mean that inventor Carrows.
Yeah, the one who wanted us to go into business with him developing that plastic.
The "cloak of invisibility" he called it, right? - So, what happened? - We were interested in hearing more, Bruce.
But Carrows withdrew his proposal before we could close a deal.
Lucius, see if you can locate him.
I'd like to talk to him.
Don't bother.
He passed away a couple of months ago.
But I've heard that his assistant Sam Giddell was trying to carry on his research.
Okay, you, come out of there.
I don't know what you think you're doing You! I didn't know.
- Are you Giddell? - What do you want? - Where were you the day before yesterday? - Here.
All day.
I can prove it.
The building security saw me.
You can check! Working kind of late, aren't you? I wanted to prep the last of the stuff for disposal.
This is that invisibility plastic your boss created? - How does it work? - Here, let me show you.
It's really quite remarkable.
See those filaments embedded in the plastic? Run an electrical current through them and the stuff bends light instead of absorbing it, so you can't see it.
But in the process, the plastic becomes toxic.
I know.
I read the report.
I've spent two months trying to correct the problem but it's hopeless.
- So you were gonna dump it? Yes, it's too dangerous.
Funny thing is, some of it seems to be missing.
- Who else knows about this stuff? - Only the other assistant.
He was more like an errand boy.
An ex-con.
The name's ventrix, Lloyd ventrix.
Mrs.
Ventrix? I'm looking for your husband.
It's urgent.
Mojo, it's exactly what I wanted.
I'm glad.
Now, come on.
I wanna show you something real special.
- Where are we going? - You'll see.
And prolonged exposure to the plastic can damage the mind as well as the body.
- You say he can make himself invisible? Mojo! - Who? - Kimberly! Kimberly.
Kimberly! Kimberly! Kimmy! Kimberly.
I thought Mojo was just her imaginary friend.
I never thought What's that? A tranquilizer dart.
How long ago did you see your daughter? Five minutes ago.
I put her to bed and Batman? Here we are.
You want me to get in your car? - Now, Kimmy - But it'll look like the car's going by itself.
- Won't we get in trouble? - No, Kimberly, we won't.
I don't know.
I'll tell you what, maybe if I let you see me you'll feel better.
- Hi, Kimberly.
- You're a man? I gotta go, Mojo.
I'm not supposed to be with strangers.
Mommy told me.
But I'm not a stranger, Kimberly.
I'm your daddy.
My daddy? Get away! Mommy says you're not allowed to come near me.
She says you're a bad man and that's why they locked you up.
Never mind that! You're coming with me whether you want to or not! - Not in this lifetime, pal.
Mommy! Mommy! - Mommy! Mommy! - Kimberly? I didn't know he could fly too.
Give it up, ventrix.
The suit's toxic.
It'll destroy you.
Don't hand me that.
I'm not feeling any pain.
Not like you're gonna feel! Ventrix, the suit.
It's poison.
So what if it is? I don't care.
As long as I have it, I can take my daughter back whenever I want.
Her mother won't be able to stop me, and neither will you.
No! Peekaboo.
Get ready for your biggest disappearing act, ventrix the one where no one sees you for 10 to 20.
Me and Mommy are moving.
Even if Daddy gets out of jail this time he'll never find us.
- Kimberly? - Who are you talking to now? - Just Batman, Mommy.
Oh.
Him again.
But he really was here, Mommy.
I know, honey.
I know.
