PREVIOUSLY ON "BATWOMAN"...

MR. FREEZE'S LIQUID NITROGEN CAN

GOT IN THE HANDS OF A BUNCH OF EIGHTH GRADERS.

I NEED TO FIND IT.

EXPOSURE TO THE FREEZE SERUM

WILL STOP TIME AND KEEP YOU FROM AGING.

GONNA NEED A LITTLE HELP.

BATWOMAN.

RYAN, WAKE UP!

NOT MUCH LEFT, BUT RENEE WAS WILLING

TO CROSS IT OFF HER LIST.

GUESS IT'S SAFE TO SAY YOU'VE FIGURED OUT

THE GLITCHES IN YOUR SUPERSUIT.

YOU COULD SAY THAT.

IT'S BECAUSE HE DISABLED THE FAILSAFE.

I SHOULDN'T HAVE CLEARED YOU FOR FIELD DUTY.

IF YOU CONTINUE TO TRY TO HAVE

ANYTHING TO DO WITH MY FAMILY,

YOU AND WAYNE ENTERPRISES

WILL COME TO SEVERELY

REGRET THAT DECISION.

DOES THAT HAPPEN A LOT? THOSE DELUSIONS?

SO, YOU THINK YOU KNOW MY STORY.

27. RAISED IN THE SYSTEM.

STINT AT BLACKGATE.

OH, AND YOU'RE MY SISTER.

AAH!

SUBJECT FXJ-1. REANIMATION PROGRESS CHECK.

FINAL PHASE.

YOU'RE FREE TO GO.

REANIMATION FAILURE. 24 HOURS TILL CLIENT DEADLINE.

WHAT THE HELL?

WHEN DID IT GET HERE?

TRAGICALLY EARLY.

DELIVERY DUDE WOKE ME OUT OF BED.

OK. YEAH. THIS IS BAD.

YEAH, BUT THE PICTURE'S KIND OF CUTE.

"30 UNDER 30." YOURS TRULY.

I MEAN, I NEED TO HANG THIS UP.

- GIVE ME THE NOTE. - HERE.

"YOU'RE WELCOME, FAM.

SEE YOU AT THE PRESS JUNKET. MARQUIS."

YOUR BROTHER GOT YOU ON THE LIST?

FIRST OF ALL, I'M A RISING STAR.

BUT ALSO, HE USED TO HOOK UP

WITH THE EDITOR OF THE "GAZETTE," SO...

SO, YOU NOW HAVE A PUBLIC DATE

IN FRONT OF THE CAMERAS WITH THE BROTHER

THAT YOU HAVE TO STAY AWAY FROM,

OTHERWISE JADA JET COMES KNIVES OUT

FOR YOU, WAYNE ENTERPRISES,

MAYBE EVEN YOUR SECRET IDENTITY.

I TRIED TO GHOST HIM, OK,

BUT THE WORD IS OUT AND GOTHAM'S CURIOUS.

YOU KNOW CHARLIE CLARKE, RIGHT?

HEAD OF PR FOR WAYNE?

OF COURSE. CHARLIE'S BEEN AT WAYNE

SINCE MY DAD WAS STILL THERE.

HE'S ONE OF BRUCE'S INNER CIRCLE GUYS.

OK, WELL, CHARLIE'S GOTTEN

DOZENS OF REQUESTS

TO INTERVIEW WAYNE'S

HOT, YOUNG CEO--

THEIR WORDS, NOT MINE--

AND HE SAYS THAT IF I SKIP OUT ON THIS EVENT,

WE'RE GONNA HAVE REPORTERS TRYING TO CLIMB

THE WALLS OF WAYNE TOWER TO GET ANSWERS.

OK. WHAT'S YOUR PLAN FOR WHEN

YOU RUN INTO MARQUIS?

FEEL THIS SHOULDER.

COME ON. FEEL IT. FEEL IT.

- COLD AS THEY COME - OK.

LOOK, IF I NEED A CONVO BLOCKER,

SOPHIE'S GONNA BE THERE.

HER SIS IS ON THE LIST FOR THE COMMUNITY CENTER.

OH. THAT IS LEGITIMATELY COOL.

GREAT. YOU BOTH ARE HERE.

CAN I RUN SOMETHING CRAZY BY YOU?

MY SWEET GIRL.

DID YOU GO HOME WITH A BOY LAST NIGHT?

NO. SEE, THAT'S THE THING.

I'M PRETTY SURE I SPENT THE NIGHT

ASLEEP ON A BENCH

IN THE MIDDLE OF GOTHAM PARK.

WHOO. SO, BUSY MORNING.

I SHOULD JET. PUN INTENDED.

GOOD LUCK.

WOULD LUKE STILL BE THIS UPSET

IF NOTHING WAS ACTUALLY WRONG?

LUKE IS JUST FRUSTRATED.

YOU TOLD ME HIS PTSD

MADE HIM A RISK IN THE FIELD.

HE JUST WANTS US TO BE ABLE TO

KNOW WE CAN DEPEND ON HIM.

DEPEND ON HIM? YOU MEAN LIKE

WHEN YOU WALK INTO A ROOM AND SAY,

"HEY, SOMETHING REALLY WEIRD

JUST HAPPENED TO ME. CAN WE TALK ABOUT IT?"

HE'LL COME AROUND, OK?

BUT I'M HERE TO LISTEN.

I HAVE A JAM-PACKED DAY, SO, CAN WE WALK AND TALK?

THEN WE SHOULD JUST TABLE MY DRAMA,

BECAUSE I SORT OF NEED AN ACTIVE LISTENER HERE.

OK. HOW ABOUT THIS?

I'LL BUY DRINKS FOR HAPPY HOUR.

THEN YOU CAN UNLOAD?

SURE. I'LL JUST JOURNAL UNTIL THEN.

BREATHE. JUST BREATHE.

IT'S NOT LIKE YOU'RE IN THE NORMAN BATES OF PSYCH WARDS,

WITH A BILLION NON-CONSENSUAL NANOBOTS

SWIMMING THROUGH YOUR BLOODSTREAM.

OH, WAIT.

YOU'VE GOT MAIL.

I HATE THAT I'M OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW WHAT YOU DID THERE.

THESE ARE FROM DADDY.

THEY ALL ARE. AN ENTIRE STACK

FROM OLE JAILCROW JACOB KANE.

THESE MIS-DELIVERIES ARE FROM

THE WEEPY POST OFFICE INSIDE MY SICK MIND.

NOW, THAT SOUNDS LIKE A "YOU" PROBLEM.

OOH!

EXCUSE ME?

HELP?

KANE?

WHAT'S THE PROBLEM?

EVERYTHING LOOKS NORMAL TO YOU?

ROOM INSPECTIONS ARE TUESDAYS AND THURSDAYS.

- WHAT? - I HAVE JUST ONE MORE THING.

I NEED TO SPEAK TO RENEE MONTOYA.

LET'S KEEP THINGS MOVING, CHARLIE.

I WANT TO MAKE AN IMPRESSION,

THEN LEAVE 'EM WANTING MORE.

GREAT NEWS-- THE CHAIRMAN OF APEX BROADCASTING

GOT AN EEL BONE STUCK IN HIS THROAT,

SO, THERE'S A PHOTO SESSION SLOT AVAILABLE.

LEAD THE WAY.

WAYNE ENTERPRISES IS SET TO MAKE

ITS BIGGEST QUARTERLY REVENUE GAINS

IN 6 YEARS.

I HAD TO BRIBE MR. WAYNE WITH BLOODY MARYS

TO GET HIM TO MEMORIZE HIS TALKING POINTS.

RYAN! RYAN! RYAN!

...OVER HERE.

YOU WANT TO LET ME WORK?

I CAN BARELY TELL YOU'RE SMILING.

COME ON! SHOW GOTHAM

THAT NEW FIRE THAT'S TAKING OVER.

RYAN, RYAN.

THANK YOU SO MUCH. ISN'T SHE WONDERFUL, FOLKS?

THAT'S MARQUIS JET. I WANT THE CAMERAS

TO GET A SHOT OF YOU TOGETHER.

THE JETS ARE ICONS IN THIS CITY.

WHY ARE YOU AVOIDING ME?

I THOUGHT THAT ONCE I GOT YOU ON THIS LIST,

YOU KNEW THAT I WANTED--

TO PISS OFF YOUR MOM.

HEY, I'M JUST MAKING UP

FOR THE MISSED TIME YOU HAD WITH

OUR MOM IN THE REBELLIOUS PHASE.

IT'S MANIPULATIVE. AND FRANKLY,

IT PUTS MY BUSINESS AT RISK.

- LOOK, RYAN-- - HEY, GUYS.

CAN I GET A SMILE?

I'LL BE REAL WITH YOU.

I JUST WANTED TO DO A NICE THING

AND HOPEFULLY HAVE A CHANCE

TO HANG OUT WITH MY SISTER, BUT

IF THAT'S TOO RISKY FOR YOU...

YOU'RE OFF THE HOOK.

I GOTTA TAKE THIS. YEAH.

THIS IS LIKE THE PUBLICIST

HUNGER GAMES.

DID YOU SEE THE SIGN AT THE BAR

THAT SAYS, "THE FREE CHAMPAGNE

IS FOR NOMINEES ONLY"?

YOU WANT ME TO GET YOU A GLASS,

YOU SHOULD'VE BOUGHT ME THAT BOX OF WINE

I WANTED IN COLLEGE.

OK, AS YOUR BIG SISTER,

I STAND BEHIND THAT DECISION.

IT'S AS ON BRAND FOR ME AS BEING

HERE TODAY IS OFF BRAND FOR YOU.

AS AN HONOREE, I GET A LITTLE

SPEECH AT THE PARTY LATER.

TWO MINUTES, ANYTHING I WANT TO SAY.

MY PLAN IS TO SERENADE THESE MONEYBAGS INTO

QUADRUPLING THE COMMUNITY CENTER'S BUDGET.

IT'S A ONCE-IN-A-LIFETIME SHOT, RIGHT?

THAT'S MY "UNDER 30" BESTIE.

ALWAYS GOT HER EYE ON THE PRIZE, AND, UM...

IT MUST RUN IN THE FAMILY.

UM, I HAVE SOMETHING

EMBARRASSING TO TELL YOU.

I AM SO IN.

I HAD A DREAM ABOUT RYAN.

- OK. - I WAS IN BED.

- OK. - AND I MUST HAVE BEEN SICK, BECAUSE

SHE BROUGHT ME SOME SOUP.

WHAT KIND OF SOUP?

I WOKE UP BEFORE I COULD EVEN TRY IT.

WHAT?

YOU WOKE UP EARLY.

IT'S A CLASSIC DREAM ABOUT LONGING.

I KNEW YOU REALLY LIKED HER.

WHY DID I TELL YOU THIS?

JORDAN, IT WASN'T A SEXUAL DREAM. AT ALL.

DID RYAN BRING A FLOWER WITH THE SOUP?

TOLD YA.

HEY. I'M 31, I HAVE NO CAREER,

AND I AM SURROUNDED BY ALL YOU

SICK, LITTLE PRODIGIES, AND MY BRAIN

IS BEGGING ME, "HEY, LOSER,

CAN YOU AT LEAST FIND A GIRLFRIEND?"

BUT...THAT DOESN'T MEAN IT HAS TO BE RYAN.

OR, AND HEAR ME OUT ON THIS,

RYAN WILDER IS HOT AS HELL,

AND YOU'RE AMAZING TOGETHER.

YOU'RE STARING AGAIN. I JUST--

YOU KNOW WHAT? I HAVE TO GO.

- I'LL BE RIGHT BACK. - TO THE BATHROOM?

WORRY ABOUT YOUR SPEECH.

JORDAN MOORE.

I'M FROM THE "GAZETTE."

WE'RE READY TO SIT FOR YOUR INTERVIEW.

O-OK, SURE. LET ME JUST GRAB MY PUBLICIST.

THAT WON'T BE NECESSARY.

VESPER FAIRCHILD IS HOLDING.

VESPER, IT'S JADA.

I HAPPENED TO GLANCE AT LAST WEEK'S RATINGS.

OUCH. IT'S A CROWDED LANDSCAPE, MY DEAR,

BUT I WANT TO HELP YOU MAKE SOME NOISE.

YES, I HAVE A SCOOP.

EXPLAIN THIS NEW HOBBY TO ME.

ONLY IF YOU EXPLAIN WHY MONTOYA

DROPPED YOU OFF FOR ME TO BABY-SIT.

I HAVE URGENT INFORMATION

TO HELP BATWOMAN RECOVER

THE INFAMOUS "ZERO-G" SNEAKERS

USED BY BATMAN'S LONG-AGO FALLEN

AND TRAGICALLY ARROGANT FOE

THE MIGHTY ICARUS.

ICARUS?

SOUNDS LIKE A DEEP CUT.

ACTUALLY, IT'S FAKE, BUT

SHE'LL BELIEVE ANYTHING IF YOU

LOWER YOUR VOICE AN OCTAVE.

IT'S CONVINCING, RIGHT?

CONVINCE ME

NOT TO TELL MONTOYA THAT

THERE IS NO MIGHTY ICARUS.

WELL, FOR ONE, YOU'RE LONELY.

I THOUGHT MAYBE WE COULD DO EACH OTHER'S NAILS

OR TRY A FEW ELECTIVE SURGERIES.

MM-HMM. THERE HAS TO BE SOME REASON

WHY YOU'RE PLAYING HOOKY FROM ARKHAM.

UHH. WELL, I HATE TO ADMIT ANYTHING

THAT WOULD MAKE ME SOUND WEAK,

BUT THE TRUTH IS...

I'M HERE TO DO BATWOMAN A FAVOR.

MM. WELL, KEEP GOING.

SO FAR, THIS STORY'S BETTER THAN

YOUR NANOBOT COLD.

FIRST THINGS FIRST.

CAN YOU TELL ME WHAT TROPHY

THE BAT TEAM IS HEROICALLY TRACKING DOWN

AT THIS VERY MOMENT TO KEEP

THE GOTHAM STREETS SAFE

AND APPEASE THE TYRANT THAT IS

FORCING US TO WORK TOGETHER?

SOMETHING CAME UP.

WE'LL GET BACK TO RENEE'S TREASURE HUNT TOMORROW.

HMM. NO JUDGMENT HERE, BUT

I WONDER IF RENEE WOULD BE AS

GENEROUS TOWARD THIS WHOLE

WORK-LIFE BALANCE?

I GUESS YOU'LL FIND OUT WHEN YOU CALL HER.

FINE. YOU WIN. JUST...

DON'T BOTHER ANYONE WHO COMES IN.

THANK YOU.

I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU'VE NEVER HAD MEDIA TRAINING.

JUST HIGHLY MOTIVATED. WHO'S NEXT?

LET ME SHOOT THE "GAZETTE" A QUICK TEXT

AND SEE IF THEY'RE READY FOR YOU.

FIGURED YOU'D CHILL IF I BOUGHT A DISGUISE,

SO, THEY HAD THIS SICK COLORWAY AT THE GIFT SHOP.

"WHO'S THAN MAN WITH RYAN WILDER?

IS HE HANDSOME? I CAN'T TELL."

YEAH, YOU PROBABLY SHOULDA GOT SOME AVIATORS.

I SHOULD'VE. THEY'RE TWO-FOR-ONE.

- DO YOU WANT IN?

HEY, RYAN, HAVE YOU SEEN JORDAN?

SHE'S LATE FOR AN INTERVIEW

AND HER PHONE IS OFF.

NEVER LET THE CLIENT

OUT OF YOUR SIGHT.

I'M MORE PUBLISISTER THAN PUBLICIST, SO...

I'D HAVE GUESSED PRINT MODEL.

COOL HAT.

MARQUIS JET. I'M RYAN'S BROTHER.

SOPHIE MOORE. RYAN'S--

VERY GOOD FRIEND WHO NEEDS HELP

FINDING HER BABY SISTER.

THE "GAZETTE" SAYS THEY'RE READY FOR YOU.

CAN WE PUSH THIS OFF UNTIL AFTER THE INTERVIEW?

MY GIRL COMES FIRST.

SEE IF THAT DUDE GOT RID OF THE EEL BONE YET.

COME ON. LET'S GO.

OK. REBOOTING...

VOICE INTERFACE.

REBOOTING SYSTEM LOADER.

DAD? IT'S LUKE. ARE YOU THERE?

THE SILENT TREATMENT'S GETTING OLD.

ARE YOU REALLY GONNA LEAVE ME HANGING WITH THE MOST

SOPHISTICATED PERSONAL FLIGHT SUIT ON THE PLANET?

IS THIS ABOUT THE FAILSAFE?

YOU'RE MAD BECAUSE I TURNED IT OFF?

BECAUSE THAT'S ON YOU.

IT MALFUNCTIONED. SO...

YOU KNOW, IT ALSO ALMOST GOT ME KILLED,

SO, NO, I'M NOT TURNING IT BACK ON.

MY SUIT, MY DECISION.

BATWOMAN TO BATCAVE. YOU THERE?

YEAH, JUST... TALKING TO MY WARDROBE.

HAVING A NORMAL ONE.

BATWOMAN. HEY.

I THOUGHT YOU WERE TAKING A PERSONAL DAY.

I NEED AN ASSIST.

SOPHIE'S SISTER JORDAN IS M.I.A.

TOO MANY MAI TAIS AT THE OPEN BAR?

OH, I HOPE NOT. I CLEANED UP ENOUGH

PUKE IN MY OLD JOB.

I GOT A PING ON HER CELL PHONE.

SO, LET ME JUST NARROW DOWN

THE LOCATION RADIUS WITH THE HOTEL WI-FI.

NOT TO BE A DOWNER AT A PARTY,

BUT IT MIGHT BE TIME TO PANIC.

IS SOMETHING GOING ON WITH HER?

SHE SEEMED NERVOUS BUT ONLY BECAUSE

SHE HAD A SPEECH LATER.

FACIAL RECOGNITION SAYS NO JORDAN

ON ANY OF THE EXTERIOR HOTEL CAMS,

SO, SHE MUST STILL BE ON THE PREMISES.

HEY, I JUST GOT A TIP

THAT YOUR SISTER WAS SPOTTED

UPSTAIRS AT THE HOTEL.

SOME MAN BROUGHT HER INTO ROOM 1620.

LET'S GO.

OK, YOU STAY HERE. KEEP AN EYE OUT.

CALL ME IF SHE COMES BACK DOWN.

JORDAN?

OH, MY GOD.

NO. DON'T TOUCH HER.

NOT TILL WE KNOW WHAT HAPPENED.

WHO THE HELL WOULD DO THIS TO HER?

I'VE SEEN THIS EQUIPMENT BEFORE.

THIS IS MR. FREEZE'S DESIGN.

FREEZE SERUM DID THIS?

I THOUGHT YOU SAID YOU GOT THAT

STUFF OFF THE STREETS.

I GOT THE ORIGINAL CANISTER BACK,

BUT MAYBE SOMEONE FOUND MORE.

WHY WOULD THEY DO THIS TO JORDAN?

AND HOW ARE THEY DOING THIS

WITHOUT A CRYOCHAMBER?

YOU KNOW WHAT? I'LL HANDLE IT.

- I HAVE TO MOVE HER. - YOU CANNOT

WARM HER, SOPHIE.

IT'S TOO DANGEROUS.

THE LAST TIME SOMEONE TRIED THAT,

SHE AGED AT 4 TIMES THE NORMAL RATE.

THIS IS MY SISTER, RYAN.

SHE'S MY RESPONSIBILITY.

I KNOW. WE WILL FIGURE THIS OUT TOGETHER.

THE CATALYTIC MECHANISM IS

BASED ON VICTOR FRIES' RESEARCH,

BUT WHAT USED TO HAPPEN INSIDE A CHAMBER

IS NOW HAPPENING INSIDE JORDAN'S CELLS.

I JUST WANT TO KNOW HOW TO UNDO IT.

TELL ME HOW TO HELP.

THE MAIN COMPLICATION THAT WE SEE

WITH FRIES' CRYO-STASIS IS RAPID AGING,

BUT THIS IS SO MUCH MORE INVASIVE.

IF I HAD TO GUESS

WHAT THIS COULD DO TO ORGANIC TISSUE...

HAVE YOU EVER SEEN A PIECE OF

PETRIFIED WOOD BEFORE?

WE SHOULD JUST PAUSE ON THAT ANALOGY

AND JUST FOCUS. WHAT DO YOU NEED?

WANT ME TO GO TO THE STORE FOR A HAIR DRYER?

WHY THE HELL IS ALICE EVEN HERE?

IT'S REALLY NOT EVEN WORTH EXPLAINING.

LOOK, IF I CAN GET A CLEAN SAMPLE

OF THIS NEW FREEZE SERUM,

I THINK I COULD

FIGURE OUT A SAFE WAY TO

BRING JORDAN OUT OF CRYO.

THEN WE SHOULD FIND OUT WHO MADE IT

AND SEE IF THEY HAVE MORE.

WERE THEY WORKING WITH ANYONE

AT THE HOTEL OR WITH THE EVENT?

WE SHOULD HAVE LUKE CHECK EVERY CAMERA SYSTEM

TO SEE IF HE CAN PULL--

I GOT IT. IT'S THE BEE GEES.

OF COURSE IT'S THEM.

DID YOU TAKE MY SISTER'S PHONE?

OH. YEAH. AND, UM, YOU'RE WELCOME.

FOR CRITIQUING HER STATE IN MUSIC?

NO. FOR SOLVING ALL YOUR LITTLE MYSTERIES.

WHO KIDNAPPED JORDAN, WHO'S EXPERIMENTING

WITH THE FREEZE FORMULA.

SAME ANSWER. THE BLACK GLOVE SOCIETY.

THE BGS. THE BEE GEES.

THEY RULE THE CITY FROM THE SHADOWS.

THEY WANT TO LIVE FOREVER. YOU KNOW.

USUAL BIG-MONEY PERVERT STUFF.

SHE'S RIGHT. JORDAN AND HER FRIENDS

WERE COLLECTING INFORMATION ON

SOME BLACK GLOVE SOCIETY.

SHE WAS GOING TO USE HER SPEECH

FROM THE "30 UNDER 30"

TO UNMASK THE SOCIETY AND SHUT IT DOWN.

NOW THAT IS A GREAT WAY TO

MAKE YOURSELF A TARGET OF GOTHAM'S

OLDEST SECRET SOCIETY OF THE RICH AND POWERFUL.

I'LL SEND THIS INFO TO LUKE

SO HE CAN CHECK ON THE OTHERS

AND SEE IF THEY'RE OK.

WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME WHAT YOU WERE DOING?

YOU? SPECIAL AGENT PLAY-IT-SAFE?

SHE KNEW YOU'D TRY TO TALK HER OUT OF IT.

UH, MARY?

I DON'T THINK HER TEMPERATURE'S STABLE.

YOU'RE RIGHT.

THE FORMULA MUST BE BREAKING DOWN

INSIDE OF HER BODY.

UGH. IF I COULD JUST

GET A SAMPLE OF THIS FORMULA,

I COULD FIGURE ALL OF THIS OUT.

IT'S TOO BAD WE CAN'T JUST ASK HER

HOW TO FIND THE BEE GEES.

SHE WAS OBVIOUSLY CLOSE ENOUGH TO SOMETHING

FOR THEM TO TURN HER INTO A POPSICLE.

ALICE, YOU'RE COMING WITH ME.

WHERE ARE YOU GOING?

I CAN'T JUST WAIT FOR RYAN

TO SOLVE THIS FOR ME.

WE'RE GONNA SEARCH JORDAN'S APARTMENT.

IF SHE'S GOT ANY OTHER EVIDENCE ON BLACK GLOVE,

IT'LL BE HIDDEN THERE.

JUST GOT THE BLACK GLOVE FILES FROM SOPHIE.

GIVE ME ONE SECOND TO SEE WHAT JORDAN HAD ON HERE.

NOTHING THEY DO IS DIGITAL.

MAYBE THAT'S HOW THEY STAY OFF THE RADAR.

NO COMPUTERS. NOTHING ON THE CLOUD.

NOTHING WE CAN USE TO GET

A NAME OR A LOCATION?

WHAT ABOUT THE PEOPLE

JORDAN WAS TEXTING EARLIER?

M.I.A. THEY ALL MET UP AT THE HOTEL

BUT THEN THEY ALL WENT DARK.

I BET THAT'S WHY BLACK GLOVE DOES

THEIR FREEZE EXPERIMENTS AT THE HOTEL.

ONE-STOP SHOPPING FOR EVERYONE WHO HAS IT OUT FOR THEM.

OH, MY GOD. THE CORONER IS TAKING

SOMEONE OUT OF THE HOTEL IN PIECES.

PROBABLY ONE OF JORDAN'S TEAM.

OK. I'M GOING UP TO THE HOTEL.

WE GOTTA FIND THE OTHER ONE.

DID YOU HAVE EYES ON MARQUIS

AROUND THE TIME THAT JORDAN WENT MISSING?

- WHY? - BGS IS BIG MONEY.

FLASHY GUYS DOING WHATEVER IT TAKES TO STAY POWERFUL.

HE WOULD FIT PERFECTLY INTO THAT CROWD.

FIND YOUR FRIEND'S SISTER?

YEAH. I DID. THANKS.

RIGHT WHERE YOU SAID SHE'D BE.

GLAD I COULD BE OF SERVICE.

I BET HE IS.

HOW'D HE KNOW WHICH ROOM JORDAN WAS IN

IN THE FIRST PLACE?

HOW DID YOU KNOW WHERE TO FIND HER?

I KNOW A GIRL WHO WORKS AT THE FRONT DESK.

SHE ASKED AROUND FOR ME.

ONE OF THE HOUSEKEEPERS SAID THAT SHE SAW

SOMEONE WHO LOOKED LIKE JORDAN

BEING LED INTO A BEDROOM

BY SOME OLDER GUY.

I'M NOT ACCUSING YOU. OK?

BUT LIKE I SAID,

I DON'T REALLY KNOW YOU, MARQUIS.

I ACTUALLY CAME TO APOLOGIZE.

FOR WHAT?

YOU THINK JADA'S CRAZY, ANGRY,

CONTROL-FREAK THING IS SOMETHING NEW?

THIS HAS BEEN MY WHOLE LIFE.

ONLY CHILD. I WANTED TO KNOW YOU SO BAD.

I THOUGHT, FINALLY, MY SISTER.

WE GOT EACH OTHER'S BACKS.

BUT I GUESS NOT.

WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT ALL ABOUT?

I'LL FIGURE IT OUT AFTER WE HELP JORDAN.

IS YOUR PHONE SERIOUSLY NOT ON RIGHT NOW?

CHARLIE, SORRY. SHE'S ON SILENT.

LOOK, I JUST RAN INTO SOME

MOVERS AND SHAKERS AT THE HOTEL,

SO, I GOTTA GET BACK TO IT, OK?

LOOK.

RYAN, WHY IS HE SO PISSED?

BUILD YOU UP JUST SO THEY CAN KNOCK YOU DOWN.

OK. BETTER GIVE ME THE EXECUTIVE SUMMARY.

5 MINUTES AGO, VESPER FAIRCHILD

BROKE THE SCOOP THAT THE CEO

OF WAYNE ENTERPRISES HAS BEEN DIVERTING

TENS OF MILLIONS OF DOLLARS

INTO SECRET ACCOUNTS FOR HER OWN USE.

JADA.

I JUST GOT OFF THE PHONE WITH OUR CFO.

HE'S STARTED DOING AN AUDIT OF OUR

ACCOUNTING SYSTEMS AND HE AGREES

THAT THERE'S A PROBLEM.

WHAT? NO. IT'S NOT POSSIBLE.

OK, LOOK. I WILL TALK TO HIM

AND SORT THIS OUT, BUT JUST NOT RIGHT NOW.

OH, DO YOU HAVE A MORE DESPERATE CRISIS?

THEY SAY MULTITASKING IS

THE HARDEST PART OF THE JOB.

NOT FOR MUCH LONGER.

OK. DON'T WORRY.

I WILL GET A BOX FOR MY PERSONAL BELONGINGS.

GIRL, WHEN YOU CATCH BERNIE MADOFF--

IN THIS CASE, YOU-- STEALING MONEY,

YOU DON'T FIRE HER.

YOU ARREST HER.

TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD, LUKE.

MAYBE LIKE JADA JET HACKED OUR SYSTEMS

AND FAKED ALL THAT HIDDEN MONEY.

RYAN, SHE DIDN'T FAKE THIS.

WHY AM I THE LAST PERSON TO KNOW THAT

I HAVE 8 FIGURES STASHED

UNDER A MATTRESS SOMEWHERE?

CAN YOU THINK OF ANY OPERATIONS THAT

ARE EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE, SECRETIVE,

AND CAN ONLY BE AUTHORIZED BY

THE CEO OF WAYNE ENTERPRISES?

BATMAN. AND NOW BATWOMAN.

THAT MONEY IS OUR OPERATING BUDGET.

LOOK, I HAVE NO IDEA HOW JADA GOT ACCESS

TO OUR ACCOUNTING SYSTEMS, SO, THE ONLY GOOD NEWS IS

SHE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT THE MONEY IS FOR,

JUST THAT SHE COULD PIN IT ON YOU.

LUKE, I GIVE UP.

THERE'S NOTHING HERE.

THE COPS COULD WALK IN ANY SECOND

AND I'M FREEZING MY ASS OFF.

GCPD HAS THERMAL IMAGING CAMERAS

ALL OVER THE CITY.

LET ME TAP IN, SEE IF ANY OF THE OTHER ROOMS

HAVE ABNORMAL TEMPERATURES.

I'M NOT SEEING ANY ICE BOXES.

LUKE? I'M SEEING A BUNCH OF HEAT LAMPS HERE.

MAYBE THEY WERE GETTING READY

TO TRY THAWING HER.

IF THEY DID THAT IN ANOTHER ROOM...

THEN ON THERMAL IMAGING IT WOULD LOOK

MORE LIKE A SAUNA.

OK. BINGO. GET READY TO SUIT UP.

OHH.

WHAT'S THE SITUATION?

DEAD BODY.

THEY TRIED TO UNFREEZE IT. DIDN'T WORK.

POSITIVE I.D. SHE'S THE OTHER ONE

IN JORDAN'S GROUP TEXT.

NO SIGN OF BLACK GLOVE.

I JUST RAN THE NAME OF THE OTHER GUY IN THE GROUP TEXT.

ACCORDING TO THE GCPD, HE WAS THE ONE

THEY JUST WHEELED OUT OF THERE.

JORDAN'S THE ONLY ONE LEFT.

HEY, NO SASS. YOU LIVED IN A SEWER.

I'LL TAKE THE BEDROOM. REMEMBER,

WE'RE LOOKING FOR ANYTHING LOW-TECH.

ANYTHING CONNECTED TO BLACK GLOVE.

IF JORDAN KNEW IT WAS DANGEROUS,

IT WON'T BE OUT IN THE OPEN.

YOU SHOULDN'T BE HERE.

HOW'S YOUR NECK?

THAT'S HURTFUL.

ARE YOU TALKING TO SOMEONE?

OH, NO. HEH.

NO, I JUST LIKE TO

SAY THE DETAILS OUT LOUD.

PLEASE RESPECT MY PROCESS AND

GO BACK TO PICKING THROUGH

YOUR SISTER'S UNDERWEAR DRAWER.

GO, GO.

YOU WANT MY TWO CENTS?

FIRST OF ALL, THEY'RE MY TWO CENTS.

SECOND OF ALL, SHUT UP. I'M WORKING.

YOU DIDN'T WANT TO READ THOSE POSTCARDS.

YOU DON'T LIKE FEELING THOSE LITTLE MACHINES

SWIM AROUND IN YOU LIKE GUPPIES.

YOU BROKE MY DAMN NECK.

I'M SORRY. DO I SEEM

A TEENSY BIT ON EDGE?

IT'S ONLY BECAUSE THE FABRIC OF MY REALITY

IS COLLAPSING AROUND ME!

ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE KEEPING IT TOGETHER IN THERE?

OH, YEAH. YOU KNOW,

JUST OVERCOMING THE MOLD OF YOUR

SISTER'S DUSTY MANIFESTOS.

MAYBE IF YOU KNEW WHAT WAS REAL ABOUT

YOURSELF, BETH...

THE REST OF THE WORLD WOULD FALL BACK INTO PLACE.

SHE UNMASKED THE BEE GEES.

OH, WOW.

THAT DOESN'T BELONG TO YOU.

THANKS FOR THE WARNING.

JUST TAKING A SHOT HERE.

ARE YOU MAKE-BELIEVE?

I'M HERE FOR EVERYTHING THAT WAS

SCANNED INTO THE GIRL'S PHONE.

PRO TIP...

BUY A DOCUMENT SHREDDER.

AAH!

WHAT'S UP, LUKE?

YOU DIDN'T GIVE US AN UPDATE

ON YOUR PROGRESS WITH JORDAN.

I'M TRYING TO KEEP HER STABLE

UNTIL SOMEONE COMES THROUGH WITH

A SAMPLE OF THE FORMULA.

YOU'VE HAD HER LONG ENOUGH TO ANALYZE

EVERY ANGLE, RUN EVERY TEST,

AND YOU'VE STILL GOT NOTHING?

WOW. NO PRESSURE, HUH?

IF YOU GET TO JUDGE ME FOR HOW I'M PERFORMING IN THE CLUTCH,

WHY CAN'T I DO THE SAME FOR YOU?

I WAS TRYING TO HELP YOU,

NOT SCORE POINTS IN SOME

"WHO'S THE BEST HERO" COMPETITION.

LOOK, I'M NOT DUNKING ON YOU.

I'M JUST REMINDING YOU THAT YOU

DECLARED YOURSELF TEAM DOCTOR.

YEAH. I'M TRYING.

BUT I CAN BARELY SEE STRAIGHT

BECAUSE I SPENT THE NIGHT IN THE PARK,

WHICH NOBODY KNOWS ABOUT BECAUSE NOBODY ACTUALLY CARES.

WHAT IS IT?

I CAN HEAR IT. YOU JUST GOT AN IDEA, RIGHT?

ANIMALS NEVER EVOLVED TO WITHSTAND FREEZING,

BUT PLANTS HAVE ORGANIC MATERIAL

THAT'S PERFECTLY ADAPTED

TO FREEZING AND THAWING.

AND THEY SURVIVE WINTER BY SYNTHESIZING

A TYPE OF ANTIFREEZE

INSIDE THEIR VASCULAR TISSUE.

THE KEY IS TO THAW FROM THE INSIDE,

NOT THE OUTSIDE.

AND YOU THINK THIS COULD BE A WAY TO

SAFELY UNFREEZE JORDAN?

NO. I JUST THOUGHT IT WAS

A FUN FACT ABOUT PLANTS.

WHAT'S THAT SMELL?

GASOLINE.

ALICE. ALICE!

THAT'S A LITTLE ON THE NOSE, BUT

THE BOOKS ARE A NICE TOUCH.

HEY, WHERE'S YOUR KNIFE?

THE BEE GEES TOOK IT,

ALONG WITH ALL THE EVIDENCE I FOUND

IN JORDAN'S HIDEY HOLE.

STOP TRYING TO MAKE "BEE GEES" HAPPEN!

JEEZ. MISDIRECTED ANGER, MUCH?

MISDIRECTED?

THIS IS COMPLETELY YOUR FAULT.

- WHAT? - YOU'RE ALICE,

A LEGIT SUPER VILLAIN.

THE ONLY REASON THESE GUYS JUMPED YOU

IS BECAUSE YOU THOUGHT YOU WERE TALKING TO

SOME GUY WHO WASN'T EVEN THERE.

YEAH, I NOTICED.

SOMETIMES, I--

I'M NOT SURE WHAT'S REAL AND WHAT'S NOT,

AND IT USED TO ONLY HAPPEN AT ARKHAM,

BUT IT'S GETTING WORSE

AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

AND I DON'T KNOW ANYONE WHO WANTS TO HELP ME.

OH, THAT'S ONE WAY TO SOLVE MY PROBLEM.

SORRY, JORDAN.

HEY. HOW ARE YOU FEELING?

I WISH YOU HAD TOLD ME.

I COULD'VE HELPED.

I WILL ALWAYS SUPPORT YOU, JORDAN.

ALWAYS.

SHE'LL NEED SOME MORE TIME

BEFORE SHE CAN TALK AGAIN.

HER ENTIRE BODY IS RESETTING.

AND I'M NOT GONNA LIE, SHE MIGHT SMELL LIKE

CILANTRO FOR THE NEXT COUPLE OF DAYS,

BUT SHE'S GONNA MAKE A FULL RECOVERY.

OH, THANK GOODNESS.

CAN WE EAT NOW?

I AM SO SORRY, SOPH.

I SAID I'D HANDLE THIS.

AND WE STILL DON'T KNOW WHO THESE PEOPLE ARE

OR WHAT THEY'RE DOING WITH THE FREEZE SERUM.

JORDAN'S OK.

THAT'S ALL THAT MATTERS.

SO, HOW DID YOU KNOW TO COME TO THE APARTMENT?

LUKE FIGURED OUT THEY WERE AFTER

THE ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS JORDAN HAD ON HER PHONE.

I'M NOT GOING TO LET BLACK GLOVE

GET ANOTHER SHOT AT HER.

YEAH, WELL, THEY ALMOST

BURNED ME AT THE STAKE,

SO, YOU'RE GETTING MY HELP ON THIS.

AND ALICE'S, TOO,

WHETHER WE WANT IT OR NOT.

MARY.

SO, ALICE TOLD ME

HER PSYCHOSIS IS GETTING WORSE

AND SHE SUSPECTS THE DOCTORS DON'T CARE.

HONESTLY?

IT'S ARKHAM.

WHATEVER MEDS THEY'RE GIVING HER IN THERE

COULD BE CAUSING A PSYCHOTIC BREAK

INSTEAD OF CURING IT.

IT'S GOING TO BE EVERYONE'S PROBLEM

IF ALICE FULLY LOSES HER MIND

BEFORE WE FINISH THE JOB FOR MONTOYA.

BUT

HYPOTHETICALLY,

I COULD GET A SUPERVISED

WORK RELEASE FROM ARKHAM

AND SWEET MARY COULD MAKE SURE

I WAS TAKING MY PROPER MEDS.

I'M SURE THAT RY-RY COULD CONVINCE RENEE-NAY

IT WAS FOR THE BEST.

YOU KNOW, ALL FOR THE SAKE OF FIGHTING CRIME.

RIGHT. AND WHO'S GONNA PUT UP WITH

THAT BABY-SITTING JOB?

SOMEONE WHO SLEEPS WITH A GUN UNDER HER PILLOW.

WHAT DO YOU SAY? ROOMIES!

HOW'S THE OTHER CRISIS?

RESOLVED.

SO, YOU'LL BE ONE-FOR-TWO TODAY.

YOU MIGHT THINK YOU'RE HERE TO GIVE ME

BEST PRACTICES FOR A PERP WALK,

BUT I'M NOT GOING ANYWHERE.

I DID NOTHING WRONG.

OH, I BELIEVE YOU.

YOU HAVEN'T BEEN ON THE JOB LONG ENOUGH

TO EMBEZZLE A STAPLER,

LET ALONE $30 MILLION.

I THINK YOU MADE THE WRONG PERSON YOUR ENEMY

AND NOW YOU ARE THE FALL GAL

FOR BRUCE WAYNE'S MISDEEDS.

YOU THINK BRUCE WAYNE

STOLE FROM HIS OWN COMPANY?

MR. WAYNE'S LEGACY

HAS BEEN COMPLICATED SINCE

HE TOOK OVER THE COMPANY.

WITH HIS ADDICTIONS, MISBEHAVIORS,

AND DISAPPEARANCES,

LET'S JUST SAY

I'M USED TO THE CHALLENGE OF

PUTTING LIPSTICK ON A PIG.

WHAT'S THIS?

PRESS RELEASE THAT WILL GO OUT

IN THE MORNING.

AFTER A THOROUGH REVIEW,

IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE MISSING MONEY

WAS PART OF A TOP-SECRET DEFENSE CONTRACT

THAT YOU NEGOTIATED WITH ARGUS.

CEO WILDER THOUGHT NO ONE COULD KNOW ABOUT THIS

FOR NATIONAL SECURITY REASONS,

AND DEEPLY REGRETS NOT ALERTING

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.

ARGUS IS GONNA GO ALONG WITH THIS STORY?

I HAVE AN OLD FRIEND THERE.

HE'S DOING ME A FAVOR.

OK. THAT'S IT? CRISIS AVERTED?

UNFORTUNATELY, NO.

THE STOCK PRICE IS STILL CRATERING

BECAUSE SOMEONE

IS COORDINATING A CAMPAIGN

TO UNDERMINE SHAREHOLDER CONFIDENCE.

IF WE DON'T DO SOMETHING

TO RESTORE CONFIDENCE, WE ARE AT RISK

OF A HOSTILE TAKEOVER.

THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS IS

DEMANDING YOUR RESIGNATION.

IT IS THE BEST SHOT WE HAVE

AT CONTAINING THE CRISIS.

OK, CHARLIE.

WHAT DO YOU THINK I SHOULD DO?

THAT'S UP TO YOU, MS. WILDER.

BUT IN MY OPINION,

IF YOU REMAIN AS CEO,

WE WILL LOSE THE COMPANY.

WELL, WE KNEW SHE WAS CAPABLE OF THIS.

DID WE? BECAUSE I'M NOT EVEN CLEAR

WHY THE WOMAN HATES ME SO DAMN MUCH. I'M HER DAUGHTER!

AND I TOLD YOU THAT DOES NOT MATTER TO HER.

OK, LOOK.

BRUCE WAS THE FACE OF WAYNE ENTERPRISES.

BUT MY DAD WAS HIS PARTNER.

AND BRUCE WOULD ALWAYS SAY THAT

THE COMPANY BELONGED TO LUCIUS

AS MUCH AS IT DID HIM.

RYAN, I CANNOT LOSE THIS PLACE.

YOU THINK I CAN?

WHAT HAPPENS TO BATWOMAN IF THERE'S NO CASH

TO PUT GAS IN THE BATMOBILE?

I AM NOT LETTING JADA TAKE MY CALLING.

SO, WHAT? SO, EVEN THOUGH

NOBODY THINKS THAT YOU'LL WIN,

YOU'RE JUST GONNA...

STAY AND FIGHT?

HAVE YOU MET ME?

OK.

FAILSAFE SUBROUTINE... REACTIVATED.

NOW LET'S POWER CYCLE THE BOOT LOADER.

IT'S GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN, SON.

DAD?

OH, MY GOD. UM...

I REALLY NEEDED TO HEAR YOUR VOICE.

SO, THE COMPANY'S UNDER ATTACK

AND I FEEL LIKE IF WE LOSE WAYNE ENTERPRISES,

THAT'S JUST ANOTHER PIECE OF YOU THAT'S

GONE FROM MY LIFE.

HELPING WAYNE ENTERPRISES

IS BEYOND THE SCOPE

OF WHAT I CAN HELP WITH.

YEAH. I KNOW.

WE'RE ALREADY MAKING A PLAN.

I JUST--I NEEDED TO KNOW

WHY YOU STOPPED TALKING TO ME.

YOU REPAIRED THE SYSTEM

FAULT IN THE O.S.

THAT HAD BEEN BLOCKING THIS A.I.

FROM NORMAL OPERATION.

I DIDN'T REPAIR ANYTHING. I JUST

TURNED THE FAILSAFE BACK ON.

LUCAS, THIS A.I.

IS NOT DESIGNED TO RUN

INDEPENDENT OF THE FAILSAFE.

IT HAS NO PURPOSE

IF IT'S NOT EMPOWERED TO ACT

IN YOUR BEST INTEREST.

RIGHT. OK, SO,

ONCE A DAD, ALWAYS A DAD.

WHAT DID YOU WANT TO ASK ME?

WELL, A FRIEND OF MINE

KIND OF ALREADY GAVE ME THE ANSWER, BUT...

I NEED TO HEAR IT FROM THE MAN HIMSELF.

UM...

I'M NOT READY TO WEAR THE SUIT, AM I?

NO, SON. YOU'RE NOT.

SO, WHY'D YOU HAVE ME MEET YOU HERE?

NOTHING LEFT TO LOSE?

JADA WANTS WAYNE ENTERPRISES, DOESN'T SHE?

LOOK...I'M SORRY

YOU HAD TO FACE JADA'S WRATH,

AND THAT I HAD SOMETHING TO DO WITH THAT,

BUT SHE'S HAD ME SIGN

A THOUSAND NDAs OVER THE YEARS,

SO, CAN'T REALLY TALK ABOUT

COMPANY BUSINESS.

WHAT HAPPENED TO SIBLINGS

HAVING EACH OTHER'S BACKS?

WHAT HAPPENED WAS YOU WEREN'T INTERESTED.

I AM NOT LETTING OUR MOM

TAKE OVER WAYNE ENTERPRISES.

DO YOU THINK THE TWO OF US

COULD STAND A CHANCE AGAINST JADA?

IF WE PLEDGED TO WORK TOGETHER.

IT'S DEADLINE DAY, MY FRIEND.

WHAT DO YOU HAVE FOR ME?

I HAVE THE ANSWER YOU'VE BEEN SEARCHING FOR.

AND IT WORKS THE WAY I ASKED?

IT WASN'T AN EASY PROCESS, BUT YES.

WE WERE ABLE TO ADAPT VICTOR FRIES' RESEARCH

INTO A NEW FORMULA

THAT CAN SAFELY FREEZE AND UNFREEZE

ORGANIC MATERIAL.

WHAT MADE THE PROCESS SO DIFFICULT?

OUR ARRANGEMENT IS THE BLACK GLOVE SOCIETY

COMMISSIONS US TO ACHIEVE THE IMPOSSIBLE.

BUT OUR TERMS WERE NON-NEGOTIABLE.

YOU DO NOT INQUIRE ABOUT OUR METHODS,

NOR OUR IDENTITIES.

YOU DON'T WANT TO TELL ME WHAT LINES YOU CROSS

TO "ACHIEVE THE IMPOSSIBLE."

YOU WANT TO KNOW WHAT LINE I CROSSED?

THE FINAL BREAKTHROUGH CAME FROM

A RIVAL RESEARCH TEAM.

I STOLE THEIR IDEA.

AS LONG AS THAT'S THE EXTENT OF IT,

I'M A VERY HAPPY CUSTOMER.

THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH A LITTLE

CORPORATE ESPIONAGE.

SO. NOW THAT YOU HAVE THE ABILITY

TO PUT ANYONE'S LIFE ON PAUSE INDEFINITELY,

YOU JUST GIVE ME THE WORD

AND I'LL MAKE IT HAPPEN.

OH, I WILL.

AND IT WON'T BE A LONG WAIT.

THE TIME HAS COME FOR MY SON MARQUIS

TO TAKE HIS LEAVE OF ABSENCE.

GREG, MOVE YOUR HEAD.
