PREVIOUSLY ON "BATWOMAN"...

ALICE WAS RIGHT.

YOUR MOM'S STILL ALIVE, RYAN.

IF YOU WANT TO KNOW HER NAME.

IT'S NOT WORTH IT.

SO, WHAT'S NEXT, BATWOMAN?

WE FIND THAT CASE OF BATMAN TROPHIES

BEFORE ANYONE ELSE DOES.

WHY DID YOU CALL ME HERE?

OVER A DOZEN WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION

ARE BELLY-UP IN THE GOTHAM RIVER SOMEWHERE.

SO, TOGETHER, YOU TWO

ARE GONNA FIND AND STOP EVERY FREAK

WHO GETS HIS HANDS ON ONE OF THESE WEAPONS

UNTIL EACH OF THE ITEMS ON THAT LIST

ARE FOUND AND ACCOUNTED FOR.

- - SHH, SHH, SHH.

NICE.

COULD YOU BE A LITTLE LOUDER?

I DON'T THINK THEY HEARD YOU IN STAR CITY.

HEH.

HOW COLD DO YOU THINK THE POOL WATER IS?

IT'S ACTUALLY REALLY WARM.

SERIOUSLY?

OK. I GET IT.

YOU CAN HOLD YOUR BREATH FOR A REALLY LONG TIME.

BUT I GOT NEWS FOR YOU.

THE WORLD ALREADY HAS AN AQUAMAN.

HE'S A LOT MORE RIPPED.

DEREK?

IF YOU'RE WAITING FOR ME TO SAY THIS ISN'T FUNNY, THEN FINE.

THIS ISN'T FUNNY. YOU CAN COME UP NOW.

OHH! AAH! AAH!

AAH!

AAH!

AAH!

BY THE ORDER OF THE MAYOR'S OFFICE,

IN EXCHANGE FOR YOUR COOPERATION IN THESE CASES,

YOU WILL BE REMANDED INTO SUPERVISED CUSTODY.

IF YOU HARM OR ATTEMPT TO HARM ANY PERSON,

THIS RELEASE WILL BE RESCINDED.

IF YOU VIOLATE ANY OF THE LAWS OF GOTHAM CITY,

THIS RELEASE WILL BE RESCINDED.

IF YOU ATTEMPT TO ESCAPE,

THIS RELEASE WILL BE RESCINDED

AND YOU WILL SPEND THE REMAINDER OF YOUR LIFE

AT ARKHAM IN SOLITARY CONFINEMENT.

ANY QUESTIONS?

YES.

DOES THIS KIND OF WRECK MY ENSEMBLE?

ANY QUESTIONS I'M LIKELY TO ANSWER?

I GOT ONE.

WHAT MAKES YOU THINK ANY OF THIS IS GONNA STICK?

YOU.

BECAUSE YOU'RE RESPONSIBLE

FOR EVERYTHING SHE DOES.

SHE CROSSES THE LINE, YOUR DAYS

AS A CAPED VIGILANTE ARE OVER.

I MIGHT EVEN ARRANGE FOR YOU TWO

TO HAVE ADJOINING CELLS.

YOU'RE TYING MY FATE TO A PSYCHOPATH?

WELL, MORE LIKE HANDCUFFING IT, BUT YES.

UNTIL YOU TWO HAVE TRACKED DOWN

EVERY LAST ONE OF THOSE TOXIC TOYS

FROM BATMAN'S TROPHY CASE.

'CAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER ONE'S ALREADY

RACKING UP A BODY COUNT.

IN A CRIME AS COLD-BLOODED

AS THE CREATURE SOME SAY IS RESPONSIBLE,

TWO GOTHAM UNIVERSITY STUDENTS ARE MISSING

AND PRESUMED DEAD AFTER BLOOD AND NOT MUCH ELSE

WAS FOUND AT THE SCENE,

SAVE FOR A GRISLY CALLING CARD

WHICH EERILY RESEMBLES THAT

OF BATMAN FOE KILLER CROC,

WHO TERRORIZED GOTHAM NEARLY TWO DECADES AGO

IN A VIOLENT REIGN OF REPTILIAN TERROR.

AND WHILE SOME INSIST THIS MAY JUST BE THE WORK

OF AN ATTENTION-SEEKING COPYCAT,

AUTHORITIES CAN'T SAY FOR SURE

WHETHER GOTHAM HAS A NEW LIZARD PROBLEM

OR IF THIS KILLER IS JUST A CROCK.

AND WHILE INITIAL SEARCHES FOR--

KILLER CROC, A.K.A. WAYLON JONES.

FORMER PROFESSIONAL WRESTLER WHO SUFFERED FROM

AN UNIDENTIFIED INFECTION

THAT CAUSED HIS SKIN TO GROW SCALES,

HENCE THE APPEARANCE OF A CROCODILE.

NOW, AS THE INFECTION PROGRESSED,

OTHER PHYSICAL ABNORMALITIES FOLLOWED--

ELONGATED JAW, CLAWS, TAIL.

I REMEMBER HIM.

BATMAN KILLED HIM, RIGHT?

OH, NO.

NO. NO, BRUCE TRIED TO SAVE HIM.

HE TOOK PITY ON HIM. HE ALWAYS THOUGHT

THAT HIS VIOLENT TENDENCIES

WERE A RESULT OF THE INFECTION.

HE ACTUALLY HAD WAYNETECH LABS

WORKING ON A CURE FOR HIS CONDITION.

A WAY TO REVERSE IT. BUT...

THEY NEVER FOUND IT, THOUGH.

SO, WHAT HAPPENED?

THE GCPD HAPPENED.

THEY HAD THEIR OWN IDEAS OF HOW TO DEAL WITH K.C.,

SO, THEY DROPPED A TRUCKLOAD OF THERMITE

INTO THE SEWER JUNCTION.

RIGHT ON TOP OF HIM.

LIT THE PRIMER CORD AND RAN.

SO, THAT TOOTH?

PRETTY MUCH ALL THAT WAS LEFT OF HIM.

AND NOW IT'S LOOSE.

OK, BUT HOW COULD A TOOTH

HAVE CREATED A WHOLE 'NOTHER CROC?

I MEAN, I GET A LIZARD

CAN GROW BACK A WHOLE NEW TAIL,

BUT PLEASE TELL ME THAT TOOTH

DIDN'T GROW BACK A WHOLE NEW KILLER CROC.

IF THE ORIGINAL KILLER CROC

SUFFERED FROM AN INFECTION,

THEN IT WOULD'VE GOTTEN INTO HIS BLOODSTREAM.

SO, MAYBE THE TOOTH CARRIED THE INFECTION.

AND WHOEVER FOUND IT...

WE NEED TO FIND THEM.

BUT THE QUESTION IS, HOW?

I HAVE A QUESTION.

WHY IS THERE A TREE IN HERE?

I MEAN, I GET THE WHOLE BAT MOTIF,

BUT THIS IS A, UM, 44-STORY BUILDING.

SURELY THERE'S A MORE COMFORTABLE WORKSPACE AVAILABLE.

I NEED TO TALK TO YOU BOTH.

IN PRIVATE.

I'M JUST GONNA HANG OUT HERE.

OK. IF NEW CROC'S ANYTHING LIKE THE OLD ONE,

I'M GONNA NEED BATWING ON MY 6.

WHERE ARE YOU WITH FIGURING OUT

WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE SUIT?

UH, STILL WORKING ON IT BUT MAKING PROGRESS.

OK, WELL, WHY DON'T YOU TWO

PUT YOUR NERD BRAINS TOGETHER

AND TRY TO FAST-TRACK A FIX.

YEAH. YEAH, WE'LL GET ON IT.

KNOCK-KNOCK.

GOT MY HANDS ON A COPY OF

THE FORENSICS REPORT FROM THE POOL ATTACK.

FAIR WARNING-- THE WORD "SECRETION"

COMES UP IN SEVERAL PLACES,

BECAUSE APPARENTLY, HIS DROOL

CONTAINS A PARALYTIC AGENT

WHICH RENDERS HIS VICTIMS UNCONSCIOUS,

ALLOWING HIM TO

FEED ON THEM AT HIS LEISURE.

I SHOULD PROBABLY PUT IT OUT THERE RIGHT NOW

THAT I REALLY DO NOT DO REPTILES.

OK. LET'S GET ALICE ON THIS.

IF CRAZY STUFF'S GOING DOWN,

MAY AS WELL GET THE CRAZY LADY'S TAKE ON IT.

UM, WE DON'T REALLY USE

THE "C" WORD ANYMORE.

"CRAZY"?

WHAT THE HELL?

SEEMS WE HAVE A GUEST.

SECURITY CLEARED A LANDING REQUEST

FOR THE CEO OF JETURIAN INDUSTRIES.

JADA JET.

SHE'S APPARENTLY INSISTING ON A MEETING

WITH THE WAYNE CEO AND WILL NOT LEAVE

UNTIL SHE HAS ONE.

GOOD LUCK WITH THAT.

WELL, WE CAN'T EXACTLY

TELL HER, "WE DON'T KNOW

WHERE OUR BILLIONAIRE CEO IS."

I HAVE A FEELING SHE'LL SETTLE

FOR THE ACTING CEO.

- GREAT. - WHO'S THE ACTING CEO?

ME.

KATE WANTED TO MAKE SURE WE COULD HANDLE

ANY PROBLEMS THAT AROSE IN HER ABSENCE.

THOUGHT I'D JUST BE THE NAME ON THE LETTERHEAD.

OK. WELL, IF JADA JET

WANTS TO MEET WAYNE'S TOP-OP,

I'M GONNA NEED TO LOOK THE PART.

OH! ACTUALLY, YOU ARE IN LUCK,

BECAUSE I JUST PICKED UP

A TON OF DRY CLEANING.

AND WHY DON'T YOU TRY TO FIND OUT

WHAT OUR UNINVITED GUEST WANTS.

OK.

HEY. I KNOW YOU SAID

YOU DIDN'T WANT TO KNOW THIS,

BUT BEFORE YOU SIT DOWN WITH HER,

YOU SHOULD PROBABLY KNOW THAT...

THAT UNINVITED GUEST IS YOUR BIRTH MOTHER.

OK. TELL THE TRUTH.

DOES THIS SAY, "NO,

I HAVEN'T BEEN CEO FOR JUST 5 MINUTES"?

NO. IT SAYS, "I'M A CONFIDENT,

"PUT-TOGETHER, YOUNG BLACK WOMAN

WHO YOU WERE AN IDIOT TO EVER GIVE UP."

YOU THINK SHE KNOWS?

PRETTY BIG COINCIDENCE IF SHE DOESN'T.

WHAT DOES SHE WANT?

WHAT DO YOU WANT?

I JUST WANT TO GET THROUGH THIS MEETING

AND NEVER SEE HER AGAIN.

AND I WANT TO GET HER DAMN HELICOPTER

OFF OF MY ROOF.

OK. UM, AHEM,

WHAT IS THE ABSOLUTE MINIMUM I NEED TO KNOW

TO GET THROUGH THIS UNSCATHED?

WHAT WOULD BRUCE WAYNE INSIST ON KNOWING ABOUT HER?

PROBABLY HER BRA SIZE.

JETURIAN INDUSTRIES

SPECIALIZES IN MICROTECHNOLOGY.

JADA JET TOOK CONTROL

AFTER THE DEATH OF HER HUSBAND

A DECADE AGO.

DOUBLED THE COMPANY'S WEALTH

IN HALF THAT TIME.

SHE'S A FIGHTER.

BUT SO ARE YOU.

SEND HER IN.

HEY. JUST REMEMBER,

SHE NEVER GAVE YOU ANYTHING,

SO, SHE CAN'T TAKE ANYTHING AWAY.

YOU GOT THIS.

IF I HAD KNOWN WAYNE HAD A NEW CEO,

I WOULD HAVE SENT A GIFT BASKET.

RYAN. AND IT'S ACTING CEO.

SO, BRUCE WAYNE CHECKS HIS STOCK PRICE

FROM A SUPERYACHT IN BELIZE

WHILE YOU DO ALL THE REAL WORK?

JADA JET.

NICE TO MEET YOU.

WERE YOU AND BRUCE ACQUAINTED?

WE EXCHANGED A FEW HEATED WORDS

YEARS AGO WHEN HE POACHED

ONE OF MY MOST VALUED EMPLOYEES.

IF YOUR EMPLOYEE ALLOWED HIMSELF

TO BE POACHED,

HE MUST'VE FELT UNDERVALUED.

BUT I'M ASSUMING YOU DIDN'T FLY 12 BLOCKS

FROM YOUR CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS

TO OPEN UP OLD WOUNDS.

NO. I'M HERE TO ADDRESS A NEW ONE.

THERE WAS AN ILLEGAL BREACH

OF THE JETURIAN INDUSTRIES SERVERS.

IT WAS A VERY SOPHISTICATED HACK.

BUT THE CULPRIT LEFT BEHIND A FEW

DIGITAL BREAD CRUMBS,

AND WE FOLLOWED THEM BACK

TO AN IP ADDRESS

BELONGING TO WAYNE ENTERPRISES.

THAT'S WHY YOU'RE HERE?

WELL, IT DEPENDS.

IS THERE ANYTHING ELSE I SHOULD KNOW ABOUT?

BECAUSE I THINK CORPORATE ESPIONAGE

IS MORE THAN ENOUGH REASON

TO HAVE A LITTLE CHAT.

I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT.

MM. IGNORANCE OF

WHAT'S GOING ON IN YOUR COMPANY

DOESN'T PASS FOR BUSINESS ACUMEN.

IF YOU HAD PROOF,

YOU'D BE TALKING TO THE SEC, NOT ME.

WHY ARE YOU HERE?

BECAUSE I DIDN'T FORGE MY COMPANY

INTO A MULTINATIONAL CONGLOMERATE

TO HAVE SOMEONE SWOOP IN

AND STEAL MY LIFE'S WORK.

AND BECAUSE...

I BELIEVE WARNINGS ARE

BEST DELIVERED DIRECTLY.

AND I'LL ONLY GIVE ONE.

STAY OUT OF MY BUSINESS.

THAT WON'T BE A PROBLEM.

AND I THINK YOU SHOULD DROP THE "ACTING"

FROM YOUR JOB TITLE.

DENYING YOU KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS...

WAS NOT YOUR BEST PERFORMANCE.

YOUR DAD PROGRAMMED YOUR SUIT'S AI

TO SPEAK WITH HIS VOICE?

UH, DAD, SAY HELLO TO MARY.

HELLO, MARY.

GIVE IT A TRY.

MR. FOX? HI.

WHAT WAS LUKE LIKE AS A KID?

CALLING UP PHOTO RECORDS

FOR LUCAS FOX, AGE 6.

DAD, BELAY THAT REQUEST, PLEASE.

IT'S LIKE YOU CAN TALK TO HIM AGAIN.

IT'S...IT'S AMAZING.

IT WOULD BE MORE AMAZING IF THE SUIT DIDN'T

TURN OFF AT THE WORST POSSIBLE TIMES.

ANY GUESSES WHY?

ACCORDING TO THIS DIAGNOSTIC,

THE SUIT'S FAILSAFE GOT TRIPPED,

CAUSING IT TO SHUT DOWN.

- WHAT TRIPPED IT? - WELL, THE SUIT TRACKS

ALL KINDS OF MEDICAL DATA--

BIOMETRICS, EYE MOVEMENT,

ELECTROMAGNETIC IMPULSES TO THE BRAIN, HEART RATE.

IT'S JUST CONSTANTLY MONITORING

THE HEALTH STATUS OF THE PERSON WEARING IT.

IF I'M READING THIS RIGHT,

THE SUIT THOUGHT YOU WERE INJURED.

YEAH, WHICH PROMPTED A SYSTEM-WIDE SHUTDOWN,

PUTTING THE SUIT IN SAFE MODE.

TURNING OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF A FIGHT

BECAUSE IT THINKS YOU NEED MEDICAL ASSISTANCE

SEEMS MORE LIKE UNSAFE MODE. YEAH.

WELL, THERE'S A REASON THAT THIS THING

WAS UNDER A TARP IN MY DAD'S LAB

AND NOT OUT ON PATROL IN GOTHAM.

STILL HAVE SOME GLITCHES TO WORK OUT.

WELL, WHY DON'T WE START BY MAKING SURE

THERE AREN'T ANY GLITCHES WITH YOU FIRST.

IF THE SUIT THINKS YOU'RE INJURED,

LET'S MAKE SURE YOU'RE NOT.

UHH. UHH. AHH.

SO,

LET'S GET THIS MONSTER.

OH. I THOUGHT SHE FOUND YOU.

DID I SPY WITH MY LITTLE EYE

JADA JET'S CHOPPER ON THE ROOF?

SO, YOU KNEW HER NAME THIS ENTIRE TIME?

SHE'S KIND OF LIKE A HELICOPTER PARENT,

JUST WITHOUT THE PARENT.

I MEAN, REALLY. WHAT KIND OF MOTHER

ABANDONS THEIR DAUGHTER TO THE HORRORS

OF THE FOSTER CARE SYSTEM TO LITERALLY

JET-SET AROUND THE GLOBE?

NO. NO.

WE'RE NOT DOING THIS.

RENEE SAID I HAVE TO WATCH YOU.

IT DOESN'T MEAN I HAVE TO LISTEN TO YOU.

SO, YOU DON'T WANT TO KNOW

WHERE CROC'S GONNA STRIKE NEXT?

FINE.

WELL, AS THE RESIDENT EXPERT

ON PREDATORY BEHAVIOR, I HAD SOME THOUGHTS

ON HOW MR., UH, CHOOSES HIS PREY.

I WAS THINKING BACK TO MY FIRST KILL,

FOR WHICH I CHOSE A GERIATRIC HARPY

WITH AN OXYGEN TANK. NOW,

DO YOU KNOW WHY I DID THAT?

BECAUSE YOU'RE A KILLER, ALICE.

NO. WELL, YES, BUT THAT'S NOT THE TAKEAWAY.

I CHOSE HER BECAUSE SHE WAS EASY PICKINGS.

SEE, WHEN A FLEDGLING PREDATOR

IS LEARNING HOW TO STALK ITS PREY,

IT SEEKS TO, UM,

SEPARATE ONE FROM THE HERD.

SO, HE WOULDN'T HAVE GONE AFTER

TWO VICTIMS FOR HIS FIRST HUNT.

LOOK AT YOU LEARNING TO THINK LIKE A KILLER.

WHICH MEANS THE POOL

WASN'T THIS CROC'S FIRST ATTACK.

AND IF IT WASN'T FOR ALL THE BLOOD

IN THE DEEP END...

THEY WOULD'VE JUST BEEN LISTED AS

MISSING PERSONS.

JUST LIKE THE MISSING PERSONS I FOUND

THAT WERE LAST SEEN

AT THE EAST RIVER SHORE.

A MERE TWO MILES FROM THE POOL ATTACK.

WELCOME TO HIS HUNTING GROUND.

AND WITH THE TEAM TRAILING BY ONE,

AN INCREDIBLE CROSS-FIELD PASS FROM MEGAN RAPINOE

TO ROOKIE SENSATION WHITNEY HUTCHINSON,

WHO FAKES OUT THE LAST DEFENDER,

AND SHE'S ON BREAKAWAY...

AND SCORES!

THE CROWD GOES WILD.

WE'RE ALL TIED UP WITH MINUTES LEFT IN THE GAME.

WHICH THE REFS ARE CALLING

ON ACCOUNT OF DARKNESS.

- MOM! - MM-MM.

ARGUING WITH THE REF WILL GET YOU

A YELLOW CARD.

FINE.

GROSS.

AAH!

ACCORDING TO THE 911 CALL,

YOU'RE RIGHT IN THE AREA WHERE

THE MISSING GIRL'S MOTHER SAID SHE WAS PLAYING.

GCPD'S EN ROUTE.

WELL, THEY'LL FIND

ABOUT AS MUCH AS WE HAVE,

WHICH ISN'T MUCH.

THERE HAS TO BE SOME SIGN OF HER THERE.

DRAG MARKS LEAD OFF IN THAT DIRECTION.

BUT THERE'S NO BODY PARTS, NO BLOOD.

HE DIDN'T FEED ON HER HERE.

WHICH IS UNDERSTANDABLE, GIVEN HE DID JUST

FEAST ON ALL-YOU- CAN-EAT COEDS.

THERE'S A WHOLE LOT OF SECRETION, SOPHIE.

DIDN'T YOU SAY O.G. KILLER CROC'S SALIVA

CONTAINED A PARALYTIC AGENT?

THAT'S HOW HE SUBDUED HIS VICTIMS.

AND THEN STASH THEM AWAY FOR LATER.

IT'S BASICALLY LIKE A CROC-PANTRY,

FOR WHEN HE WANTS A DOGGY-BAG.

OK, THEN WE NEED TO FIND WHERE HE STASHED HER,

BECAUSE THAT GIRL COULD STILL BE ALIVE.

YEAH.

UNTIL HE GETS HUNGRY.

IS THAT CROC SKIN?

IT APPEARS OUR CROC IS A...GROWING BOY.

AAH!

AAH! OH!

SO, WHAT WAS SHE LIKE? MOMMY.

SHE WAS AMAZING.

AND THEN YOU TOOK HER FROM ME.

I MEANT BIRTH MOMMY.

BUT IF IT'LL BREAK THE ICE,

I'LL TELL YOU ABOUT MY MOM.

SHE HAD A REALLY GREAT HEAD ON HER SHOULDERS.

EMPHASIS ON THE WORD "HAD."

WHY DO YOU CARE?

WHY DO YOU KEEP PRETENDING NOT TO?

SURELY YOU GREW UP WONDERING

WHAT SHE WAS LIKE, AND

SEEING AS FATE, OTHERWISE KNOWN AS ME,

HAS BROUGHT YOU TOGETHER, I THINK I AT LEAST

DESERVE TO KNOW THAT MY EFFORTS HAVE PAID OFF.

YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT JADA WAS LIKE?

SHE WAS AMAZING.

SHE WAS CONFIDENT, DIRECT,

FEARLESS, UNAPOLOGETIC.

SHE WAS A FREAKING MASTERCLASS

IN TAKING WHAT'S HERS.

AND LETTING IT GO, APPARENTLY.

DID IT HURT ALL THE MORE KNOWING

SHE DIDN'T WANT YOU IN HER LIFE?

NO. BECAUSE I DON'T WANT HER IN MINE.

SHE DOESN'T EVEN KNOW WHO I AM,

BUT I KNOW WHO SHE IS AND I DON'T NEED HER.

NOW SHUT UP AND HELP ME FIND THE TRAIL.

ACTUALLY...I THINK WE JUST FOUND WHERE IT ENDS.

YOU FIRST.

ME? THE ONE WHO'S

NOT WEARING IMPENETRABLE TACTICAL ARMOR?

THAT'S WHO YOU WANT TAKING POINT?

I'M NOT LETTING YOU OUT OF MY SIGHT, ALICE.

DO YOU REALLY THINK I'M GONNA RUN?

DO YOU REALLY THINK I'M GOING TO BELIEVE

THAT YOU GIVE A DAMN ABOUT STOPPING THIS CROC?

YES. I THINK YOU'RE GONNA RUN

THE FIRST CHANCE YOU GET.

SO, IT'S MY JOB NOT TO

GIVE YOU ANY CHANCES.

OH, THAT'S FUNNY. I THOUGHT IT WAS YOUR JOB

TO SAVE A LITTLE GIRL.

DON'T ACT LIKE YOU'RE HERE

TO DO THE GOOD DEED, ALICE.

YOU ONLY THINK ABOUT YOURSELF,

SO, DON'T YOU DARE USE

THAT LITTLE GIRL AS CAMOUFLAGE.

I WAS THAT LITTLE GIRL.

DON'T ACT LIKE YOU'RE THE ONLY ONE

WITH ABANDONMENT ISSUES.

I WILL NOT GIVE UP ON THIS GIRL

THE WAY EVERYONE GAVE UP ON ME.

UCCH! THAT SMELL.

ROTTING MEAT.

KINDA TAKES ME BACK TO MY CHILDHOOD.

WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?

BAIT.

THIS MEANS WE'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE

HUNTING THIS MONSTER.

HE'S NOT A MONSTER.

HE'S MY SON.

THIS FEELS A BIT UNNECESSARY.

I'M FINE.

WELL, YOU'RE KEEPING FIT.

IN...MY OFFICIAL, PROFESSIONAL

MEDICAL OPINION.

LET'S TAKE A LOOK AT YOUR HEART RATE.

IT LOOKS GOOD.

LET'S HAVE A LISTEN TO YOUR LUNGS.

GOOD BREATH SOUNDS.

MM. YOUR HEART RATE IS RISING.

RISING...

STILL RISING.

NOW IT'S RACING.

LUKE, ARE YOU OK?

I--I--YEAH, YEAH.

I--I'M JUST-- I'M TICKLISH

AND YOUR HANDS ARE COLD.

YEAH. YEAH.

YOU'RE RIGHT. I--

YOU'RE TOTALLY FINE.

TOTALLY--YOU'RE TOTALLY FEELING FINE.

YOU CAN PUT YOUR SHIRT BACK ON.

YEAH. OK.

IF YOU WANT.

YOU SHOULD.

UH...YEAH. SO, LIKE I SAID,

IT'S JUST A PROBLEM WITH THE SUIT.

AHH. YEAH. MUST BE.

YOU THINK YOU CAN FIX IT?

YEAH. YEAH. IT SHOULD BE EASY.

I JUST NEED TO OVERRIDE THE FAILSAFE.

ARE YOU SURE THAT THAT'S A GOOD IDEA?

I MEAN, ISN'T THE POINT OF A FAILSAFE

TO KEEP YOU SAFE WHEN THE SUIT FAILS?

WHAT IF IT'S JUST TRYING TO PROTECT YOU?

I THINK IT'S BEING A LITTLE OVERPROTECTIVE.

KIND OF REMINDS ME OF A CERTAIN

NEWLY MINTED DOCTOR THAT I KNOW.

MY BOY DIDN'T MEAN TO HURT THOSE PEOPLE.

I'M SURE HE DIDN'T.

HE'S NOT A KILLER.

UNLIKE THAT ONE.

I WASN'T EXPECTING TO FIND ANYBODY DOWN HERE,

MUCH LESS A PAIR OF CELEBRITIES.

WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TWO DOING TOGETHER, ANYWAY?

AREN'T Y'ALL SUPPOSED TO BE ENEMIES?

LONG STORY. SHE'S WORKING WITH ME.

THEY'RE A LITTLE SHORT-STAFFED

AT CITY HALL. THAT'S WHY.

WE WANT TO HELP YOUR SON.

WHY DON'T YOU START BY TELLING US

WHAT HAPPENED TO HIM?

IT'S PROBABLY BETTER I SHOW YOU.

JUST BEFORE STEVEN

WAS HEADING OFF TO COLLEGE,

WE WENT ON A FATHER-SON FISHING TRIP.

HE HOOKED A BLUEGILL ON HIS VERY FIRST CAST.

BUT WHEN WE CUT THAT THING OPEN,

THERE WAS SOMETHING MIGHTY WEIRD INSIDE.

LET ME GUESS.

A RATHER LARGE CROCODILE TOOTH?

YEAH. STEVEN THOUGHT IT WOULD BE COOL

TO MAKE IT INTO A NECKLACE.

BUT HE CUT HIMSELF ON THE TOOTH.

CUT GOT INFECTED.

THEN STEVEN...STARTED CHANGING.

TRIED DOCTORS.

NONE OF THEM KNEW WHAT IT WAS.

THEY COULDN'T STOP THE CHANGES.

EVERY DAY, THERE WAS A LITTLE LESS STEVEN

AND A LITTLE MORE...CREATURE.

AND THAT'S WHEN THE APPETITE TOOK HOLD OF HIM.

AND I HAD TO CHAIN HIM UP. BUT HE WAS JUST TOO STRONG.

TOO HUNGRY. HE BROKE FREE.

I'VE BEEN TRYING TO LURE HIM BACK.

YOU REALLY ROLLED OUT THE RED CARPET FOR HIM.

I CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT YOU'RE GOING THROUGH.

BUT WE REALLY DO WANT TO HELP YOUR SON,

AND WE HAVE TO START BY MAKING SURE

HE DOESN'T HURT THAT LITTLE GIRL OR ANYONE ELSE.

YEAH, BUT I JUST DON'T THINK HE'S GONNA

AGREE TO BEING LOCKED UP AGAIN.

THAT'S WHERE THIS COMES IN.

YOU THINK THAT THING'S STRONG ENOUGH FOR HIM?

YEAH. BUT IT'S NOT FOR HIM.

IT'S FOR YOU.

AAH!

I'M NOT GONNA LET YOU HURT MY BOY.

AAH! OH!

BATWOMAN, I'M READING A HUGE POWER SPIKE.

IS EVERYTHING OK?

BATWOMAN, DO YOU READ ME?

BATWOMAN!

I'M SORRY. I REALLY AM.

BUT MY BOY'S SUFFERED ENOUGH

WITHOUT YOU ADDING TO IT.

I JUST WANT TO GET HIM THE HELP HE NEEDS.

YEAH. YOUR IDEA OF HELPING STEVIE

IS TAKING HIM AWAY FROM ME.

LOCKING HIM IN A CAGE, OR WORSE.

JAB HIM WITH NEEDLES.

DISSECT HIM LIKE HE'S SOME KIND OF LAB ANIMAL.

I'M HIS FATHER

AND I'M GONNA DO WHATEVER I NEED TO DO

TO KEEP HIM SAFE.

EVEN IF THAT MEANS--

STEVIE, IT'S YOUR DAD. STEVIE, NOOOO!

NO!

THAT IS YOUR SON, YEAH.

ARE YOU OK?

YEAH. I JUST NEED A MINUTE.

OH, THAT'S GOOD.

'CAUSE THAT'S ALL I NEED.

SUCKAS.

ONE MINUTE I HAD HER AND THEN

EVERYTHING WENT DEAD.

I'VE BEEN TRYING TO RAISE HER

BUT I CAN'T EVEN--

BATCAVE. COME IN.

BATWOMAN, WE READ YOU. WHAT HAPPENED?

EXACTLY WHAT I SAID WOULD HAPPEN.

ALICE ESCAPED. AND I CAN'T HUNT HER DOWN

AND SAVE A LITTLE GIRL.

BATWING, YOU READY TO GET BACK TO THE FIELD?

YEAH. I'M GOOD TO GO.

SO, YOU AND MARY FIXED WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE SUIT.

UM...YES. BATWING IS ALL CLEAR.

GOOD. ALICE WAS LAST HEADED

NORTH THROUGH THE SEWER TUNNELS.

IF SHE'S ON FOOT, SHE'S GONNA WANNA CHANGE THAT.

THERE'S A TRUCK DEPOT A FEW MILES ON THAT TRAJECTORY.

THAT'S WHERE I'D HEAD.

I HOPE YOU'RE RIGHT.

WE NEED TO FIND ALICE

BEFORE RENEE KNOWS SHE'S GONE.

HELP! SOMEBODY!

PLEASE, PLEASE.

OH, THANK GOD.

I THOUGHT THAT THING WAS GONNA COME BACK.

AND HE PROBABLY WILL DO SO, HON.

UP AND AT 'EM. WE GOTTA SKEDADDLE.

I CAN'T WALK.

YOU'RE GONNA HAVE TO TRY.

BUT MY LEG IS BROKEN.

...HEY, HON.

I'M ON A REALLY TIGHT SCHEDULE HERE, SO,

YOU AND I THREE-LEGGED RACING OUTTA HERE

IS REALLY GONNA SLOW ME DOWN.

NO, NO. YOU HAVE TO HELP ME.

FINE. I'M GONNA HELP YOU.

BY TEACHING YOU THE LESSON THAT

I HAD TO LEARN THE HARD WAY.

NO ONE IS GONNA SAVE YOU EXCEPT YOURSELF.

YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE YOU CAN COUNT ON.

THE SOONER YOU LEARN THAT,

THE BETTER OFF YOU'LL BE.

NO.

YOU'RE GONNA THANK ME FOR THIS ONE DAY.

NO! NO! HELP ME, PLEASE!

DON'T LEAVE ME-- DON'T LEAVE ME, PLEASE!

I KNOW YOU'RE OUT THERE, STEVEN,

AND I KNOW YOU CAN HEAR ME.

THERE IS STILL SOME OF YOU

LEFT IN THERE THAT CAN UNDERSTAND ME.

OK? I DO NOT WANT TO HURT YOU.

I JUST WANT TO HELP YOU.

AND YOUR FATHER, HE JUST WANTS TO HELP YOU, TOO.

HE REALLY LOVES YOU.

AND TRUST ME--YOU ARE REALLY LUCKY

TO HAVE A PARENT LIKE THAT.

SOMEONE THAT WOULD DO ANYTHING TO PROTECT YOU.

AND NEVER GIVE UP ON YOU. NO MATTER WHAT.

SO MUCH FOR

TRYING TO REASON WITH YOU.

MONTOYA. WE GOT A PROBLEM.

JUST LOST THE SIGNAL FROM

ALICE'S TRACKING MONITOR.

DEFINE "LOST."

ONE MOMENT IT'S READING LOUD AND CLEAR.

THE NEXT, NOTHING.

IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE. NO ONE'S EVER MANAGED

TO CIRCUMVENT ONE OF THOSE THINGS.

TELL THAT TO ALICE.

THIS MEANS SHE COULD BE ANYWHERE.

OH, GREAT. THE SIDEKICK.

IT'S BATWING.

OOH. COOL NAME.

NOW LET'S SEE IF YOU CAN LIVE UP TO IT.

UHH!

HOW'S THE SUIT, LUKE? ANY PROBLEMS?

JUST THIS DISTRACTING VOICE IN MY EAR.

DID YOU REALLY THINK YOU COULD BEAT ME?

WHY WOULD I NEED TO BEAT YOU?

WE'RE ON THE SAME TEAM,

WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT.

WAS SOMETHING SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN?

IT ALREADY HAS. RIGHT NOW,

1,000 NANOBOTS ARE

SWIMMING THROUGH YOUR BLOODSTREAM,

SENDING OUT TRACKING BEACONS

TO SATELLITES AS WE SPEAK.

SO, IF YOU WANNA RUN,

YOU BETTER BE REALLY FAST.

UHH!

UHH! UHH!

UHH!

YOU OK?

IT'S OK.

I GOT YOU.

I GOT YOU.

I THOUGHT I LOST YOU.

CONGRATULATIONS.

I SEE YOU'VE STOPPED THE CROC,

SECURED THE TOOTH,

REUNITED A MISSING GIRL WITH HER MOTHER,

BUT...WHAT I DON'T SEE IS YOUR PARTNER.

SHE'S OVER THERE.

WAITING FOR YOU TO CHAUFFEUR HER

BACK TO ARKHAM.

HAD SOME TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES WITH THAT,

BUT I THINK WE'VE FOUND

A BETTER SOLUTION.

RIGHT, ALICE?

LEAPIN' LIZARDS, GOTHAM!

YOU CAN ADD "BAT" TO THE LIST OF APEX PREDATORS,

BECAUSE BATWOMAN JUST TOOK A BITE

OUT OF CROC 2.0.

THE RAMPAGING REPTILE HAS BEEN RELOCATED

TO THE NOT-SO-NATURAL HABITAT OF ARKHAM ASYLUM,

WHERE I'M ASSUMING THE GUARDS'

HAZARD PAY JUST WENT UP.

THANKS TO THE CAPED CRUSADER,

THE CROC WAS DENIED HIS LAST MEAL

AND MISSING GIRL WHITNEY HUTCHINSON

WAS REUNITED WITH HER MOTHER IN A REUNION THAT HAD

EVEN THE LIKES OF YOURS TRULY A LITTLE WEEPY.

REST ASSURED, GOTHAM,

THESE WERE NOT CROCODILE TEARS.

YOU KNOW... IF YOU SQUINT,

YOU CAN JUST MAKE OUT

JETURIAN INDUSTRIES FROM HERE.

I LIKED IT BETTER WHEN I DIDN'T KNOW

SHE WAS THERE.

I'M SORRY.

I SHOULD'VE NEVER TOLD YOU.

IT'S NOT YOUR FAULT.

IT'S NOBODY FAULT. EXCEPT HERS.

YOU KNOW WHAT I CAN'T GET OVER?

SHE PAID A DOCTOR $2 MILLION

TO FALSIFY HER RECORDS SO NO ONE

WOULD EVER KNOW I WAS HERS.

WHAT KIND OF MOM DOES THAT?

YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT HER LIFE WAS LIKE THEN,

OR WHAT SHE WAS GOING THROUGH,

OR EVEN WHAT HER OPTIONS WERE.

BUT THERE IS ONE PERSON WHO CAN

GIVE YOU THOSE ANSWERS.

I DON'T KNOW IF I WANT TO KNOW THEM.

RYAN, I KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE

TO NEED TO PUT UP A WALL.

BELIEVE ME, I'VE LAID A FEW

BRICKS IN MY LIFE.

BUT I ALSO KNOW WHAT IT'S LIKE

TO BE A GIRL WHO JUST

WANTS A HUG FROM HER MOM.

WHAT IF SHE DOESN'T WANT ME AS HER DAUGHTER?

THEN IT'LL BE HER LOSS.

NOT YOURS.

SORRY I BANGED UP THE SUIT A LITTLE BIT.

DAD?

OHH. WHY ISN'T HE TALKING?

I DON'T KNOW.

MAYBE IT'S BECAUSE YOU REMOVED

THE FAILSAFE.

AND I THINK YOU NEED TO TURN IT BACK ON.

I MANAGED TO PINPOINT WHERE THE SUIT

STILL THINKS YOU'RE INJURED AND IT'S THE EXACT

SAME PLACE WHERE YOU WERE SHOT.

YEAH, BUT THAT INJURY'S HEALED.

I KNOW. BUT THANKS TO THE DESERT ROSE,

YOU DON'T EVEN - HAVE A SCAR. - RIGHT.

A PHYSICAL ONE, ANYWAY.

I THINK WHAT THE SUIT IS INTERPRETING

AS PHYSICAL PAIN IS ACTUALLY

PSYCHOLOGICAL PAIN.

MARY, COME ON.

THAT'S ABSURD.

IS IT?

YOU'VE BEEN THROUGH SO MUCH.

JUST BECAUSE YOUR BODY IS HEALED

DOESN'T MEAN YOU HAVE.

THIS IS A PROBLEM.

BOTANIST IN THE LAB DOESN'T THINK

THIS VINE IS ONE OF POISON IVY'S.

ONLY WAY TO BE 100% SURE IS

TO RUN TESTS ON IT,

BUT THE ONLY WAY TO DO THAT...

IS TO OPEN IT.

BUT HE WASN'T WILLING TO DO THAT.

HOW'D YOU KNOW IT WASN'T THE REAL THING?

BECAUSE I'VE SEEN IT UP CLOSE.

AND IF THE REAL THING IS STILL OUT THERE...

GOD HELP US.

WAIT. EXCUSE ME. MISS.

I'M AFRAID YOU CAN'T JUST GO IN THERE.

I'M SORRY, MS. JET.

SHE JUST WALKED RIGHT IN.

IT'S ALL RIGHT.

I DROPPED IN ON MS. WILDER

UNANNOUNCED YESTERDAY.

SHE'S JUST RETURNING THE FAVOR.

I THOUGHT YOU AND I AGREED

YOU'D STAY OUT OF MY BUSINESS.

I AM.

THIS IS PERSONAL.

BECAUSE I'M YOUR DAUGHTER.

GREG, MOVE YOUR HEAD.
