Gotham Knights (2023) s01e11 Episode Script

Daddy Issues

1
Previously on "Gotham Knights"
Can we do two minutes on Brody's dad
being the head of The Court?
HARVEY: I've been experiencing
something that I can't explain.
I'm losing time, I'm waking up in places
that I I don't remember going to.
Whatever is happening, it's not me.
- Hiya, Harv.
- Why are you here?
- To protect you.
- From what?
From things you can't handle.
CULLEN: You're giving Stephanie
the cold shoulder again.
I guess you're really
taking my advice to heart:
don't fall for straight girls.
No one is falling for anyone.
I thought that if this did happen
that I would feel something.
You have no grasp
of social cues whatsoever.
- Not offended.
- You only give a damn
about others when there's
something in it for you.
Not offended.
[THUNDER]
[INMATES SHOUTING]
DUELA: Think it was my eighth birthday.
My mom had somehow convinced
an Arkham orderly
to give me a cupcake
from the vending machine.
I don't know. Maybe it
was just the sugar high
or me being a stupid kid, but
[YOUNG DUELA HUMMING "HAPPY BIRTHDAY"]
something convinced me to take
the long way out that day.
JOKER: Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha!
DUELA: I wanted to see him.
I mean, I didn't care that he
was locked in solitary
or that my mom called him
"The Most Dangerous Man
in Gotham".
He was still my dad.
JOKER: Hee hee! Ha ha!
You know, and frankly,
I never really found him
all that dangerous
[DISTANT CACKLING]
especially since he remembered
to give me a birthday present.
I'm sorry. Arkham let
an 8-year-old wander the halls alone?
Ah! Why am I telling you this?
Because today is your birthday.
How'd you know that?
It's on all your mug shots.
You were born in Arkham.
You've spent every birthday
either alone or with orderlies,
and for the first time ever,
you get to spend it with
someone you actually like.
[CHUCKLES]
God. [CHUCKLES]
So, what's your birthday wish?
[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]
[POLICE RADIO, INDISTINCT]
MAN: Thanks.
Press is having a field day
with this bomb threat. Any news?
Well, someone dropped off
a box reeking of gunpowder.
Turns out it was just filled with these.
I thought the Royal Flush gang
was serving 30 years at Blackgate.
Never doubt a copycat.
Not used to being summoned
by the District Attorney.
HARVEY: Yeah, well, this couldn't wait.
Are you absolutely sure
that you're ready to do this?
I'm sure.
Commissioner Soto,
Stephanie Brown
is willing to sign a sworn affidavit
that Lincoln March is
the head of a secret cabal
that's responsible for
the deaths of Mayor Hill,
Cressida Clarke,
and Bruce Wayne
among countless others.
[EXHALES SHARPLY]
Think I'm gonna need another sugar.
[REPETITIVE CLAPPING, GRUNTING]
Oh, look who finally
remembered he's a fugitive.
That was weird.
Hee hee hee!
That was weirder.
[SIGHS]
- So, Duela she's a look.
- TURNER: And?
And you two came in here
hugging yesterday's wardrobe.
Not really anybody's business.
Guess who took a ride on the bat-wang.
[WHISPERS] Me.
Oh, my God.
And yes, Bat-Brat is a very good kisser.
I know you were wondering.
I was not wondering.
- Oh!
- Wait.
Where were you?
- Around.
- "Around".
Well, we're wanted fugitives.
We don't really get to just
be "around". Around where?
The library. Mm-hmm.
Turns out libraries kinky as hell.
Sorry-not-sorry to whoever
has to reshelve YA Fantasy.
You know, I read those books.
Oh, my God. Do you want to
know something really juicy?
Why do you want to know this?
You disappeared for 12 hours
without checking in.
- You're not my keeper.
- We didn't know where you were, Turner.
If you were caught or in GCPD custody
Dude, relax. Nothing happened.
Several times, like,
uh, many, many times.
I honestly lost count
at a certain point.
Like a couple times in your favorite
section, and then we moved
to the other side of
the library and, like,
nonfiction, then we moved to history.
You almost died, Turner, and
you didn't even say, "Thanks".
You missed the part where
everybody lied to my face.
- What are you talking about?
- Don't you get it, Cullen?
I I'm done talking about my dad,
about Cressida, about clearing my name.
Where has it gotten me, huh?
I live in a belfry with
a bunch of criminals.
[HARPER SIGHS]
- Carrie.
- Carrie.
[TAPS NUMBERS]
[LINE RINGS]
[SIGHS]
WOMAN: Carrie's grounded. Who's calling?
- [HANGS UP]
- Her mom answered the phone.
- Why?
- I don't know,
but it can't be good.
I'll be right back.
Wait, wait, wait, wait.
You're gonna leave me
with Horny and Hornier?
Uh, I don't know. Wear headphones.
Oh
Oh. Ew.
Damn it.
Yes, I need help.
[CHUCKLES]
Thank you.
After my dad got out of Arkham,
I promised myself that
if I ever ran into him,
I was gonna shoot this bullet
straight through his heart
as a go-to-hell for abandoning me.
But then Batman took
care of him for you.
Oh.
Hold on. This is fun.
Did Batman kill 3/4 of our parents?
[GIGGLES]
Hey
I say we go party about it.
A citywide manhunt
doesn't just hit pause
because it's your b-day.
DUELA: Well
if we keep an ear to the scanner,
we'll know when they're
coming to crash the fun.
- Does Harper know you have that?
- Come on.
We're meeting with one
of Batman's biggest haters.
And, hey, news of him killing
the parents of an 8-year-old
would have been all over
the streets back then, right?
So maybe my contact knows what happened.
Who's this contact?
Come with me and find out.
Or stay holed up here,
being [SIGHS]
dark and broody, like dear old Daddy,
in the very place that's
kept you from seeing
the truth about everyone
you thought cared about you.
What's it gonna be, Bat-Brat?
HARVEY: I won't let
anything happen to you.
[HANGS UP PHONE]
Rebecca's still not answering.
Did Brody say where they were going?
Just somewhere safe, and
then he ditched his phone.
[CELLPHONE VIBRATES]
I need to, um I need to handle this.
- Rebecca?
- Uh, no, it's work stuff.
I'll be back in 20.
Oh don't talk to anyone without me.
[DOOR CLOSES]
Good morning, Doc.
I can't keep doing this, Mr. Brown.
I gave your wife
a prescription last week.
If anyone's paying attention
I promise, this is the last time.
You said that last time.
Oh, hey, come on, Doc.
Celebrity "Quiz Bowl's" tonight.
You want to come to the taping?
- I'm on a shift.
- Next time, then
as a contestant.
You really are a life saver, Doc.
[SIRENS WAIL]
[BRAKES SCREECH]
[CAR DOORS OPEN]
I'm really sorry.
OFFICER: Arthur Brown,
please step out of the car.
[GASPS]
Commissioner!
I believe she's on her lunch break.
Or she's in your pocket,
unless you're here to
tell me that you're not
CEO of a cult with a BDSM
Birdman as their mascot.
That's very colorful.
And your evidence of this
is where, hmm?
If you could prove any of that,
I'd be the one in handcuffs
and not your dad.
My dad?
Oh, you didn't hear?
He was just arrested on drug charges.
[CLICKS TONGUE]
You set him up?
Me? No. No.
I love "Quiz Bowl".
Big fan, but prescription fraud's
a real problem these days.
With all the doctors Arthur
shopped over the years,
I hear he's facing 20 to life.
You're a monster.
[GASPS]
[MUFFLED POUNDING ON WINDOW]
Now, there is some good news.
GCPD kept his arrest
off the press's radar,
which means that the wholesome
image your family
has worked so hard to project
is still safely intact.
Your dad could be back hosting
"Quiz Bowl" by day's end
charges dropped, record wiped,
the public none the wiser.
What do you want from me?
[FOOTSTEPS ASCENDING]
Cullen, you can't be here.
Oh, my mom threatened to call the cops
- if I tried to contact you guys.
- CULLEN: Why?
I told her I'm Robin.
Okay, so how did coming out go?
Didn't exactly end in a hug.
I guess being a 15-year-old vigilante
isn't what she had
in mind when she told me
to help out around the community.
Carrie, I I'm so sorry.
Would it help or hurt to hear
that The Joker's daughter
banged Batman's son?
[CHUCKLING]
That visual is gonna haunt me forever.
Please tell me you're joking.
Yeah, I wish I was.
I I really don't know
what's up with him.
It's like he's given up.
Okay, Batman was responsible
for the death of Turner's parents.
That's why Bruce Wayne adopted him.
Turner found out from The Court,
but I already knew because Bruce
had confessed it in his journals.
You ripped out those pages?
[CELLPHONE VIBRATES]
[SIGHS] Harper.
So, Carrie has all the tea.
Duela and Turner are M.I.A.,
and they took the scanner with them.
[SIGHS] Meaning whatever they're
doing has them dodging cops.
Meaning you two need to find those
dumbasses before the cops do.
[SIGHS]
[HIP-HOP MUSIC PLAYING]
[CHUCKLES] Stole these off a table,
so I have no idea what they are.
Wouldn't want it any other way.
You know what's crazy?
That a beanie somehow
makes me unrecognizable.
Well, that and that we
never would have met
if we both hadn't been
framed for murder.
Oh, yeah.
BOTH: To The Court of Owls.
- Ah.
- [SETS DOWN GLASS]
Hey, can I ask you something?
Shoot.
So, this Turner with
the beanie right?
In a club with way too much bass,
getting a little drunk,
being a little dangerous.
Heh!
Would you say this is
Bat-Brat spring break?
Or is this the new you?
MAN: Come on! I bought you a drink!
Aah!
Remember that next time
you think about getting
handsy with a stranger.
Aah!
Oh, my God. That woman is crazy.
I know. Heh!
I love her. Ha ha!
WOMAN: Lookie who flew the coop!
- Hi, Mom.
- Ha ha!
Ah!
Ah!
[CHUCKLES]
[DUELA AND HER MOTHER LAUGHING]
Oh, my beautiful baby girl.
I am loving this blonde.
You are a model. I mean,
is she or is she not a supermodel?
She's very pretty.
You know, every birthday,
this was my wish,
and now it's finally come true.
- Oh, my girl.
- [CHUCKLES]
So, um, Mrs.
- Oh, call me Jane.
- Jane.
Okay, um, how did you find us?
- Well, I found her. Mm-hmm.
- Always said, when I got out
of Arkham, I would send
Duela a smoke signal.
- Mm-hmm.
- [POPS LIPS]
DUELA: A bomb threat down at the GCPD,
like a little care package
containing a clue.
You know, I heard it. I heard it come in
- over the scanner. Ha ha!
- JANE: Uh-huh.
And I'm pretty sure
GCPD is still playing
52-card pickup with all
those ace of clubs.
[CHUCKLES] Nice.
DUELA: So, how did you get out?
Oh. Good behavior.
Your behavior? Heh! Mom.
Hey, come on. I don't
see you for two months,
and now you, uh, you're gonna
show up with a boyfriend?
- TURNER: Oh, I'm
- DUELA: Oh, he's not a
I'm not. We're roommates?
DUELA: Well, we're Gotham's
most wanted fugitives,
on the run, together.
- Mm-hmm.
- JANE: Because you killed Batman.
TURNER: Duela didn't kill Batman.
She's never killed anybody.
Well, only because the opportunity
hasn't presented itself, but,
technically speaking, yes,
the whole Batman thing is
a big, gross misunderstanding, so, uh,
okay, that is actually
why Turner's here.
He just found out that
Batman killed his parents
back in the day, now
he's looking for answers.
- JANE: From me?
- DUELA: Uh-huh.
What do I care about a guy who
looks better in tights than I do?
- [JANE CHUCKLES]
- DUELA: Uh, the part where he killed my dad.
[JANE SCOFFS]
I'm gonna go get another round.
- [JANE CHUCKLES]
- DUELA: Turner, wait.
It's fine. You guys catch up.
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Come on. Let me do your lips.
- Okay. Okay.
- Come on. Ha ha ha!
STEPHANIE: Daddy, what did you do?
It's a setup,
so that the GCPD can wipe the egg
off their face about those missing kids!
What, they told you about the deal?
Gloatingly,
although I am relieved
I won't miss getting
to roast Rick Pimento
on the show tonight.
I can't help you, Dad.
What are you talking about?
If I give up their location,
my friends will die.
Your mother will die if you don't.
[CHAIN CLATTERS]
I cannot take care of her from prison.
You're not taking care of her, Dad.
- You're keeping her drugged.
- ARTHUR: I am keeping her alive!
I'm keeping her from pain,
anger
depression.
[CHAIN CLATTERS]
You're a teenage girl
with a long,
vibrant, and successful life
ahead of her,
who should not be dealing
with this right now.
So let me be there
to help her, Stephanie.
Let's help Mom now,
before it gets any worse, okay?
DUELA: Yeah.
What do you mean, you're broke?
Well, I mean, I can't really go out
and make a score while I'm dodging
a manhunt to clear my name.
You disappointed?
Don't be silly.
I've been itching
to get back in the game,
make a little money, get my
baby girl the hell outta Gotham.
Um
what would you say
if I invited Turner?
[SCOFFS]
I'd say you haven't listened
to a word I said about men.
Well, Mom, come on. He's not even 18.
Well, if Turner makes you happy,
- that makes me happy.
- [BOTH CHUCKLE]
Here's your lipstick.
- Thanks.
- Yeah.
Next round's on me.
Hey
you look familiar.
I owe you money or something?
We worked a grift at
Oswald's back in the day.
You paid me double.
Ah, Five-Finger Franny.
Ha ha ha ha! Tell me, Franny,
what's 5% of a $10 million reward?
[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]
Juice of the bean for the Sarge.
Attention, rookies!
If you gotta be a rook,
be a rook like Hines.
That's all.
[CHUCKLING] Cool. So, look,
the, uh, police scanner over at Somerset
kind of involuntarily
put in its paperwork.
You got one around here that we
can borrow until the update arrives?
- Let's see.
- [OPENS DRAWER]
- It's our last spare.
- [SHUTS DRAWER]
Careful with it.
Of course. Thank you.
Yo, Hines.
Yeah?
Bunch of the boys are catching the game
at O'Malley's tonight. You in?
[CHUCKLES] You know, I
I wish I could, but I got plans.
- Maybe next time.
- For sure.
Hey, uh, what's that about?
"Quiz Bowl" host got
pinched in a sting op.
Commissioner's keeping a lid
on it till his kid cuts a deal.
A deal? Wh-what kind of deal?
Heard she got a bead
on Bruce Wayne's killers.
Hey, look, I'm I'm sorry
I didn't tell you
you were meeting my mom, okay?
I didn't want to scare you.
She stabbed a guy through the hand.
Oh, come on. He wasn't
even right-handed.
You don't know that.
Well, he might not have
been right-handed.
We both know she wasn't
released on good behavior.
- [SETS HAND ON COUNTER]
- Turner, I don't really care
why she was released, frankly.
For the first time in my
entire life, I have a mom.
She's a con artist who went to
Arkham for delusions of grandeur.
Who's to say she's not scamming
her own daughter right now?
No, don't stand there and tell me
you haven't dreamt of a moment
like this every single day
since your parents died.
You're right. You're right.
I'm sorry. I get it.
Say say my mom could get us
out of Gotham tonight
with no cops, no strings,
no trace, nothing.
Would you be down?
What about everyone else?
Oh, who cares about everyone else?
Um
- Know what?
- [GRABS PURSE]
Forget it. [SCOFFS]
Yeah, you know, you're too pretty
for a life on the run anyways.
- [SCOFFING]
- Honestly, I think you'd just slow us down.
I mean, look at you.
You're already drunk.
Actually, it's kind of pathetic.
Um, so much for not offended.
Good luck, Turner.
I'll see you never.
[SCOFFS]
- [FOOTSTEPS APPROACH]
- Turner?
Harv.
I have no idea what the
hell you're doing here,
- but you're going home.
- TURNER: Harvey, get off me!
Turner, you have any idea
how reckless you're being?
No more reckless than trusting
people who say they care about me!
What's going on?
Where's this coming from?
Did you know Batman killed my parents?
- What?
- Huh?
Did you help Bruce cover that up, too?
Batman had a code. He didn't kill.
- He killed The Joker.
- [SCOFFS]
Where'd you hear that?
The Joker's daughter?
At least she and I have
something in common.
Come on, Turner.
You knew your dad better than anyone.
If you heard that Batman
killed your parents,
there's got to be a whole
lot more to that story.
Hey, Turner.
Turner.
Turner!
Oh
[THUD]
Mom.
Hey, Mom. Heh!
Uh, what the hell are you doing?
It's your birthday present.
Ta da!
Harvey Dent in a straitjacket?
The Riddler wasn't using it,
so I figured
sort of symbolic, seeing
as Harvey made me
wear one of these for 18 years.
Slow down. What?
Harvey Dent was the guy
who cried looney tunes
and locked you away?
How did I not know this?
Oh, well, Harvey's got a whole pile
of dirty laundry.
Luckily for us, I've got two hands,
pins, and a clothesline for days.
CRYSTAL: You would even
hesitate to help your dad
says it all, you ungrateful
little bitch!
You have the perfect life!
We have given you everything!
The best school,
the best shot at M.I.T.,
the best chance at actually
having a success!
My life is not perfect!
My whole life is a lie,
meticulously and painstakingly
crafted by you and Dad.
Everything I've ever done, ever said,
ever worn, has all been
to put on some twisted show!
To what?
To make people believe
that we're the ideal family
that they can only aspire to be?
But I am done.
I'm done acting.
I'm done hiding who I really am.
I'm done being manipulated by you both.
Do you even love me, or was I
just some overpriced investment?
[GASPS]
HARPER: Do not touch her!
What are you doing here?
You are just like every other deadbeat,
numbing their insecurities.
You hate seeing her happy
and successful because you are not.
You hate that she is selfless
and kind and everything you're not!
So you project everything that
you hate about yourself onto her.
She does not deserve that
and you do not deserve her.
Thank you.
[SOBS]
Cullen called.
I thought you were gonna sell us out.
I was wrong.
[CELLPHONE VIBRATING]
Did you find Turner and Duela?
CULLEN ON PHONE: Yep, two
units are en route to the Bowery
for a possible Turner Hayes
sighting at the Ace O' Clubs.
We've gotta go. Turner's in trouble.
Unh!
[EXHALES] You.
[CHUCKLES] Oh, 18 years later
and he still gives me
the turn-on tingles.
Okay, ew.
You have to go find Turner.
- He passed out at that bar.
- JANE: Oh, come on.
Like you care about anyone but yourself.
I mean, the only reason that you came
to the club was because you got
a threatening text from a voter, saying
they'd uncovered some evidence
about some crazy bitch
named Jane Doe, and lookie how fast
you came running. [CHUCKLES]
Arkham doesn't respond well
to escapees, you know.
Oh, no, I didn't escape. Heh!
I was released,
thanks to your very kind
and very convince-able political
opponent, Lincoln March.
Did you mention that you
were my lunatic stalker?
What, you stalked Harvey Dent?
JANE: No.
I fell for him,
for the handsome,
charming,
hilariously crude Harvey Dent.
Jane, you are delusional.
We were never together.
Oh, we had a love affair.
And then one day,
he stops taking my calls,
and then he's denying
knowing me to everyone
- in his office when I stop by.
- HARVEY: When you stopped by?
Jane, you gave
my secretary a cow's heart.
- You were dangerously unhinged.
- JANE: No, and then,
come nighttime, when
no one else is around,
and Harvey gets that insatiable itch
- DUELA: Still ew.
- JANE: guess who comes knocking
at my door?
Hmm?
Not once
not twice
but dozens of times,
telling me he cares about me,
wanting love. [SIGHS]
It was like I was dealing with
two completely different men
a two-faced liar,
masquerading as a city savior.
DUELA: So you gaslit my mother
into believing she was crazy
- [JANE SCOFFS]
- DUELA: and then you flexed
your power to lock her behind bars
for 18 years?
I think I can explain all of this.
JANE: Oh, no, I already did explain it
to Lincoln March, who can now run
behind the campaign slogan
"Harvey Dent,
The Most Dangerous Man in Gotham".
But you always said my dad was
The Most Dangerous Man in Gotham.
And I meant it.
Duela, meet your real father,
Harvey Dent!
No.
Nope, I'm not seeing it.
Yeah, I was two weeks into Arkham
when I started to realize that
the morning sickness wasn't
from the cafeteria sludge. Heh!
It was from you!
And the only way I was
gonna send my baby
out into a world where
I couldn't protect her
was to ensure that she
didn't need protecting.
So you told everyone that
Gotham's most prolific murderer
- was my dad?
- JANE: Yep.
I still remember his laugh
when I asked him.
[GIGGLES]
The Joker knew I wasn't his?
Of course he did.
But he liked you,
and once he realized you
could fend for yourself,
he he stopped paying attention.
Is any of this true?
Did you sleep with my mom
and then lie about it?
[QUIETLY] I don't know.
No.
No, you either did
or you didn't.
[WHISPERS] It's not impossible.
"Not impossible"?
My mother spent my
entire life behind bars!
I grew up alone, being told on the daily
that my mother was some unfit sociopath!
I'm sorry. I know this must be so
No! No! No! You ruined my life!
I didn't know about you!
I didn't.
That part, I swear. I
I didn't know, Duela.
What is this?
Opportunity presenting itself.
[DANCE MUSIC PLAYING INSIDE]
[BAR PATRONS CLAMORING]
STEPHANIE: We need to find
Turner and Duela.
CULLEN OVER COMMS: The
APB was only for Turner.
DISPATCHER, ON RADIO:
All units, all units.
Suspect Turner Hayes has been
spotted at Ace O' Clubs.

Dispatcher, I got eyes on Hayes.
CULLEN OVER COMMS: Did you hear that?
He's out cold in a storage
room, but I got a pulse.
Possible O.D.

signal with Freek,
I can bypass their firewall,
get their gateway address,

My brain just moves too fast

Okay, got into their cameras.
Cycle back to where the cops arrived.
Oh [SIGHS] magic number 614.
Ready to spoil the party?
[SIREN STOPS]
[HARPER SIGHS] All right, folks.
Consider this last call.
[DANCE MUSIC PLAYING]
Excuse me, officer. I think I saw
those fugitives from the news.
Show me.
Where?
- [STUN GUN BUZZES]
- Oh!
Yep. Right there.
OFFICER: Let's go.
[CAR ENGINE STARTS]
Kid's fine. Just drunk. Heh!
[SLOW AND DISTORTED] Bringing him in.
DISPATCHER: Copy that.
I'll notify Central.
Battery's dead on this one.
Cruiser's D.O.A. in the alley
on the south side. Anyone copy?
[SIREN BLARES]
[TIRES SQUEAL]
MAN ON RADIO: Be advised.
5228 just handed
Turner Hayes off to Car 614.
ETA 15 minutes to Central.
DISPATCHER: Copy, 5228.
Central Booking will press intake.
Contact Commissioner Soto to advise.
- Any word on the other fugitives?
- [TURNER PANTING]
Listen. Listen to me.
You take me in, I'm dead.
Then you're lucky it's me
and not some Court executioner.
- Cullen?
- That's Officer Hines to you.
[EXHALES SHARPLY] Cullen!
Oh! Ha ha!
Oh! [SIGHS]
HARVEY: Okay, I think I think
I know what happened here.
And please, please, I
it's gonna sound insane,
but please hear me out. Please?
30 seconds.
- HARVEY: Okay.
- DUELA: 29.
Okay, I used to suffer from
a psychological disorder
where there were
there were two of me.
One was the Harvey that you see
sitting before you,
begging for his life,
and the other was
a rogue, reckless version,
who, at the time, I didn't
know how to control.
That's who hurt you.
DUELA: Friendly advice um,
try and use your 30 seconds
to come across slightly less
psychotic than The Joker.
That's what I'm saying, okay?
You're in control now, Duela.
You spent your entire life believing
that you were The Joker's daughter.
Of course you're gonna
live up to that name.
You don't have to do that anymore.
You don't
'cause that's not your name.
Pull the trigger, Due!
You are in control, Duela.
We spent 18 years apart because of him!
This is your clean slate.
So make him pay for what he did to us!
Be the woman that I know you want to be.
JANE: Be your mother's daughter, Duela!
[GUNSHOT ECHOES]
[THUNDER, RAINFALL OUTSIDE]
So, um, if you wouldn't mind
not pulling a runner so I can actually
eat dinner, that'd be great.
Didn't ask you to save me.
You don't have to ask, Turner!
That's the point!
Look, you you want to push me away?
You want to sleep
with Duela and make all
these idiotic choices and
straight-up lie to my face?
Fine.
I'm not abandoning you.
And one day, when this all
gets me killed, maybe then,
maybe then you'll realize how
much you actually matter to me.
No
Um, feel free to take the couch.
Turner thinks Duela
ran off with her mom.
She just got released out of Arkham.
- Damn.
- Yeah.
Sounds like I'm not the only
one that had a crazy day.
Guess I can't blame her, though.
Took my dad asking me to put
my friends' lives in jeopardy
for me to realize that
I wasn't their daughter.
I was
their puppet.
[SIGHS]
Of course, I'd even hook up with the guy
that had the perfect
last name in their eyes
even though he never made me feel
What?
Anything at all.
[SIGHS] Now that my strings are cut,
I don't even know
who I am or
what I like
what I want.
But you do
in your gut.
For once in your life, don't
think before you answer.
What does Stephanie Brown want?
PHOEBE BRIDGERS: Something
when I see you now ♪
I feel something ♪
When I see you ♪
I used to light you up ♪
And now I can't even get you ♪
To play the drums ♪
[SIGHS]
So that's what it feels like.
'Cause I don't know what I want ♪
[THUNDER]
But I feel something ♪
When I see you now ♪
Ahh!
Franny said we could
hole up here for a bit
till I tie up a few
loose ends, then we'll
put this hellhole in our
rearview. [GIGGLES]
"Queen of coffee" or "I love my kitty"?
Oh, whatever.
[MUGS CLINK TOGETHER]
Listen I know it probably feels
like the whole earth underneath
your feet went kaput
- [SETS DOWN BOTTLE]
- but Harvey Dent was evil, right?
He kept us away from each other
for 18 years.
He took your childhood.
He took my motherhood!
And you
mm!
- Oh!
- [DUELA CHUCKLES]
You showed me you are exactly who I
raised you to be.
I am so unbelievably
proud of you, baby girl.
[THUNDER]
To my daughter,
my hero,
the most dangerous girl in Gotham.
[DISTANT, INDISTINCT CHATTER]
[HEART MONITOR BEEPING]
- WOMAN: Welcome back, sir.
- [HARVEY EXHALES SHARPLY]
You're at Gotham Gen.
Couple utility workers found you
on the old red line.
HARVEY: I should be dead.
Yeah, not if fate had a say.
EMTs found it in your pocket.
You gotta be kidding me.
The coin saved me?
I don't think that's a good thing, sir.
Something tells me you're
gonna wish you were dead.
It looks like one
of the fugitives suspected
in the high-profile murder
of Bruce Wayne
has a new name
Duela Dent.
Harvey Dent allegedly sired
the young woman
with Arkham inmate Jane Doe,
who claims she was locked away in order
to cover up Harvey's illicit affair.
This will no doubt impact the polls.
REBECCA: How's it healing?
The wound will heal,
but the idea of my wife secretly tasking
her Talon to run me
through with his sword
will take a little more time.
I had to distance you from The Court.
Mm-hmm.
But if I'd known you'd just leave out
your trophies for your son to find,
I'd have told the Talon
to aim a little higher.
[THUNDER]
HARVEY ON VOICEMAIL:
Hey, Rebecca, it's me.
Can you please call me back
so I know you're okay?
I know about Lincoln and The Court,
and I promise you, I'm gonna do
everything in my power
to stop your husband.
I won't let anything happen to you.
[THUNDER]
I won't let anything happen to you.
I won't let anything happen to you.
MAN: Greg, move your head!
