All language subtitles for Batwoman S01E12 _ English

This is constructed
of actual human skin?

Yeah. We linked DNA
on the mask

to dozens of individuals,
all dead.

I'm not following.

Sophie: Alice robbed a series
of morgues a few months ago.

We think she was stealing
skin off corpses

to help mouse
make that mask

so he can impersonate
commander Kane

and kill Catherine
in the process.

Look, Dr. Campbell.
Your name carries

a lot of weight
in this city.

We could really use
your testimony.

I agree. There's a
definite likeness to you,

but, uh,
the notion of a man crafting a mask

out of different skins to
perfectly resemble the face

of another man

and pulling it off
convincingly,

this... heh heh...
is science fiction.

Right now, we have
an innocent man

in prison
and a murderer in custody

who's refusing
to talk.

Doctor, if there's any
way you can help with this...

I'm sorry.

You say you have, uh,
this mouse character

under lock and key?

Yeah. We got him
on 24-hour watch

in Gotham general.

I'll need to meet him.

I'll run a few tests,
and if they convince me

this is possible,
then I'll sign the affidavit

testifying that an innocent
man could have been framed.

Thank you,
Dr. Campbell.

I hope I can get you
out of here.

I really do.

We need you back
at headquarters.

Don't doubt yourself.
You'll find Alice.

And if I don't,

her next victim's
on me.

You want to prove
to this city

from Alice to every
two-bit criminal wannabe

that you're a force
to be reckoned with?

Well, then you eliminate
the threat at any cost.

Go, go, go. Move, move!

Sophie: Honestly, I don't know
who's a bigger threat

to Gotham... Alice

or us for letting
her get away.

Hands up.
Don't move!

[Sirens]

Show us your hands!

Sophie: I want her
dealt with for good,

which is why
I'm ordering a B-42.

You sure you can
do that, Moore?

It's acting commander,
and yes.

If you see Alice,
do not hesitate.

Shoot to kill.

Weird observation,
but Gotham seemed

a lot less bumpy
on my earth.

Sorry, Beth.
I'm avoiding checkpoints.

Mary: We need to get you
out of town.

Once we get you out
of the crows' crosshairs,

we can figure out
what's wrong with you.

Oh, my god! Your ear!
You're bleeding.

It's getting worse.
Speed up.

I would love to, Mary,
but slight problem.

Since when is there
a checkpoint here?

Guys, I can't
exactly turn around.

Uh, tell them I'm going
into labor

and we need to get
to a hospital.

Um, have you
seen you?

[Coughing]
I can't breathe.

Ok. Now what the
hell is the problem?

I'm obviously having
an asthma attack

and in need
of medical attention.

- Ok. I'm sorry.
- Your asthma attack's not very believable.

- Why is the concept of lying so difficult for you to grasp?
- Your yelling's not... stop!

Why can't you just lie?

- Guys!
- Yeah. We're screwed.

Under the blanket.
Go, go, go, go, go!

Ok! It's tight.

Guys, guys, guys,
I got to stop.

[Radio chatter]

Look. Not to pull
the whole

do you know who
my father is,

but maybe the reason
Alice escaped your custody

in the first place is
because the crows

have a tendency of
overlooking minor details like hi.

My dad is your boss.

- Miss Hamilton.
- Exactly.

So if you could just tell
your boys to stand down.

Just trying to do
our job, ma'am.

And we so do
appreciate it.

[High-pitched sound]

Mary: Go, Gotham!

[Beth groans]

Ok. I'm gonna have to get
you to step out of the car.

Sir, that was my yorkie.
Automatic weapons give him anxiety.

Get out
of damn the car!

Ok. We're cool.

Just gonna reach
for my seatbelt, ok?

Any ideas?

Panic?

Man: Step out
of the vehicle, ma'am.

- Mary: Ok. Ok.
- Okay.

Really? We're
doing this?

[Groaning]

Got someone
in the back.

Aah!

Man: What's going on?

[Engine revving]

Halt! Stop!

Agh!

Go!

[Tires squealing]

*BATWOMAN*
Season 01 Episode 12

*BATWOMAN*
Episode Title: "Take Your Choice"

Vesper: Apologies
for a late broadcast, Gotham.

Like many of you,

I was stopped
on my way to work

by crows agents looking
for Alice.

On the upside,
I'm pretty sure

that involuntary pat-down
counts as my annual mammogram.

Holy police state,
Batwoman!

Can we find her already?

[Radio chatter]

Alice: What are
we looking for?

[Groans]

Now see,
I wouldn't be caught

dead in that uniform,

but I'm glad you were.

Heh.

[High-pitched sound]

Ohh! Agh!

[Moaning]

[Moaning]

Kate: Hey.
You figured it out yet?

Mary: No swelling,
no pressure buildup.

Her hearing's fine.

Hemophilia
causes nosebleeds,

but she has no sign
of any bruising,

and it doesn't
explain the migraines.

All that is to say that no,
I haven't figured it out yet,

but I won't stop
until I do.

You missed all the fun.

Batwoman showed up
and saved us.

Really?
That's fortunate.

She likes me.
Plus she kind of owed me one.

Really?

- Mary: Ok. Problem.
- Kate: What?

Her cells are disintegrating
on a molecular level.

Beth: May I? I'm no
expert in multiverses...

Luke: But you are two
credits shy of astrophysicist,

so whatever you're
thinking, spill.

Well, I've read
some theories...

The multiple universe
hypotheses,

inflation model,
mwi of quantum mechanics.

MWI?

- Many Worlds...
- Many Worlds Interpretation.

Does anyone here
speak real people?

Right. Um,
in my research,

I theorize that all
of these universes

are separated
for a reason.

If I'm right,
it means Alice

has one mother
of a headache now, too.

Collateral damage from
the multiverse collapsing.

In other words,
this universe

is literally not big
enough for the both of us,

and the longer we
coexist in this world,

the more we're living
on borrowed time

except we're borrowing
it from each other.

As cells decay,
the body goes haywire,

synaptic misfire,
pain receptors go into overdrive

until eventually...

If we can't find
a way to save you,

you're both gonna die.

Mary: So not to pile on,
but according

to this
neurodegeneration program,

at this rapid rate
of cell deterioration,

eventually is
about 7 hours from now.

Does alcohol slow
degeneration or something?

Here.

No, but it gives me a buzz
while I face my mortality.

You are not going to die,
right?

Mary: Uh, ok. So when in your
mind did I become proficient

in extraterrestrial
cell decay?

We need to get her
to a hospital.

Where the crows
will kill her

before anyone could say
multiverse.

- Beth: See? Whiskey.
- Hmm?

We have 3 of the smartest
people in Gotham

in this room right now.

Put your heads together
and think of something.

Where are you going?

If Beth is enemy number one
in Gotham,

then we have to get her
to a hospital outside the city.

Maybe a face to face
with this new commander

can help us get
past the checkpoints.

[Whispering] Sorry. By
telling her what exactly?

I haven't figured
that out yet.

I have. It's easy.
All you have to say

is that "an event
called crisis merged

"an infinite number
of universes,

"resulting in Alice's
not-so-evil twin

"from another earth
ending up on this earth.

"Just ask Supergirl
or the Flash,

and, oh, by the way,
I swear I'm not Batwoman."

[Coughing]

[Coughing]

[Indistinct chatter]

Orders to transport
the inmate.

- Get away from me.
- Mouse.

It's me,
my darling.

I've come to get you
out of here.

How are you
doing that?

How are you her?

How am I who?

You're speaking
nonsense.

"The queen of hearts,
she made some tarts

"all on a summer day.

The knave of hearts,
he stole those tarts and"...

- Yeah?
- And?

"And took them
quite away."

What's wrong with you?

- Alice?
- Yes.

Who the hell else
would I be?

- She tricked me.
- Who?

A girl
with your face

and your eyes
and your smile.

Alice she was...
She was you, I swear.

That... that girl
and your sister,

they convinced me
she was you.

That's how Kate got away,
how I ended up here.

It was a perfect match,
and I believed her.

Alice, your ear.

"I do believe
you to be right

and something else to be
wrong from beginning to end."

Why are your ears
bleeding?

You have enough
on your plate

without having to
worry about me.

Where... where
are you going?

Change of plans,
little mouse.

I have some
digging to do,

and when I find
my answers,

I'll be back for you.

I know you will.

Sophie: Eyes on all the doors,
dumpsters, rafters, drainpipes.

Remember she's a sewer rat.

[Thud]

You ambushed 5 of my guys
at a checkpoint last night.

Care to explain?

Detaining the former
commander's daughter,

that's a statement.

Besides, what happened
to probable cause?

Alice got away
on my watch.

It's on me to find her.

And it's on me
to protect my city.

Copy that. So if
the law-breaking vigilante

is done telling me
how to do my job,

I should get back
to it.

Call off the shoot-to-kill
order on Alice.

Why are you protecting
a terrorist all of a sudden?

I'm protecting you.

Is this really how you
want to start your command,

roughing up innocents,
unlawful searches?

Your boss is in jail.
You're losing your clients,

and half the city thinks
the crows are on some kind

of power trip.

A manhunt like this puts
innocent lives in jeopardy.

Alice puts innocent
lives in jeopardy.

Then let me find her
my way.

Tell the crows
to stand down.

Are you crazy?

You once told me
you trusted me.

I'm sorry.

Man: Commander Moore!

I can't.

[Grappling line fires]

[Whoosh]

- Remember me, commander?
- Dodgson.

Unh!

[Groaning]

I'll take that as a yes.

Luke: What about
cryotechnology?

Bruce knew a guy
with a cryogenic tank.

We freeze your body
in cryostasis

and slow the cell
deterioration.

So a -196 degree bath
in liquid nitrogen?

Yeah, that
sounds survivable.

Fair.

Hyperbaric chamber?
We could simulate

high altitude and increase
my red blood cell count.

You'd never adapt
to hypoxia in the...

3 hours and 37 minutes
you have left.

It'll probably
just kill you faster.

Ok. I'll just
keep drinking.

We have to be able to
think of something.

We already have, Luke.

We're both just
too polite to say it

because it's
the one option that

Kate refuses to consider.

The earth's balance can't handle
the existence of two Beth kanes.

In order for one
of us to live,

the other has to die.

[Coughing]

[Alice coughing]

You are...

Not me.

A cataclysmic collapse
of another universe?

An infinite number
actually,

probably having existed
in parallel past, present,

and future timelines.

Alice: Hmm.

"Alice thought the
whole thing very absurd,

"but... they all looked
so grave

that she did not dare
to laugh."

How did you get
in here Alice?

The front desk guy Kyle...
Kent...

- Carl.
- Carl. Yes.

You'll find him
in the janitor's closet.

Kate: We need a new plan.
Sophie is not messing...

Around.

You weren't going to
tell me, Kate?

We have a sister.

You haven't exactly made
yourself available.

Here I am, and...

Here you are.

Smart...

Friendly...

Adorable.

Kate: Leave her alone!

No. It's ok.

I understand
why she resents me.

Oh, goody.

Let's add blindly
empathetic to the list.

I'm just saying

I wasn't held captive
for half my life.

I'm confused.

Surely someone found you
washed up on the riverbank

after mommy's car crashed
into the river.

No one found me

because I never washed
up onto the riverbank.

Then how did you survive
the infamous crash?

Do tell. I doubt you
simply swam to shore

like a nimble,
little frog

paddling
past mother's head

as it bobbed in the rapids.

Beth... didn't
go over.

But there was a crash,
was there not?

Oh. I see.

So on your earth,

rather than simply
standing by and sobbing,

your Kate pulled you
from the car before it fell.

I always wondered
what my life

would have been like
if you had saved me.

I just never imagined
that I'd be so... basic.

Eyes that never had
to witness the horrors

that I saw.

Ears that never had to
hear the evils I heard.

Lips that never had to
beg for her life.

Because two Beth kanes
can't exist at the same time.

Technically speaking,
we are an anomaly

of intergalactic
proportions.

Got it.

So in order for one
of us to live,

the other has to die.

Now I am
no astrophysicist,

but I'm pretty sure that two
minus the one who doesn't belong

means I get to live,

and my knife is pretty good
at subtraction.

[Gasps]

How did you do that?

[Beth and Alice groaning]

Alice, stop!

Luke: Kate,
Beth needs you.

We're running
out of time.

Got a trial date yet?

They're a little slow
around here.

[Both grunting]

I thought you and I could
use a little alone time to talk.

Oh. I didn't think
you did anything

without Alice's
permission.

- Unh!
- Ohh!

The only thing more
dangerous than a corrupt man

is one who thinks
he's noble.

I'm not sure
I need a morality lesson

from the guy who sided with one
of Gotham's most prolific killers.

Alice had a psychotic
break to survive.

She never claimed
to be good.

You did...

But your men tampered
with evidence,

bribed and beat the
people who are too poor

to afford
the crows' services.

Your men killed
good people,

so now I'm gonna
kill you.

Thank you.

You're better to me
alive, puppy dog.

According to my sources,
you're on your way out of here,

and now that I got
a target on my back

for saving
a glorified cop,

it's only a matter of time before
I need you to return the favor.

[Coughing]

Ugh.

Mary: So abnormalities,
common birth defects.

Where are you,
cosmic catastrophes?

[Alice breathing
heavily]

Oh, look.
Another sister.

Alice: Uh-uh-uh.

Do no harm, remember?

Help me.

Uh, no.

You are not allowed
to discriminate.

Do something.

Freak show cosmic
anomalies are way

above my pay grade.

Lest we forget
I saved your life.

Oh, lest we forget you had your creepy,
little dormouse

dress up as my dad and
poison me and my mom.

But you lived,
healed from the...

Poison instantly...

Because I gave you
the only antidote on the planet.

The serum from
the coriana desert Rose.

People underestimate
you, Mary.

No.

Turns out you are
very, very useful.

No!

Jonathan Cartwright,

my name is
Dr. Ethan Campbell,

and I am a plastic surgeon
here in Gotham.

I understand that you
pulled off

quite the scientific feat.

Consider me
intrigued.

I'm not speaking
to anyone.

Look at you.

All grown up,

out in the world
with friends who love you.

From my research,
it seems that you

even got yourself a job
at dusty's roadside tavern.

You see,
purpose in life is a hard thing to come by.

I would know.

I spent a decade
reestablishing mine.

Am I supposed to
know you?

That's precisely
the point... Johnny.

You aren't.

No. My purpose,

shielding my son
from ridicule,

carving out a pocket
in a world of anguish

so that he could feel
love and joy,

that purpose was undone

when... my own boy...

Betrayed me.

Dad?

Hello, son.

It is
a father's greatest joy

to see his son follow
in his footsteps.

You could have
made me so proud.

I thought you
were dead.

As I intended.

Meanwhile, I took on
the life I deserved.

Recognition, praise,
prestige...

But... at the cost
of losing you...

Because of her.

- Tell me where Alice is.
- Why?

So you can kill her?

Tell me where she is,
Johnny,

so I can forgive you.

Forgive me?

For what?

For standing up
to my abuser?

For being a weak,
little boy

too powerless to
realize a broken girl

with a distorted
imagination

was taking advantage
of you.

You gave her to me.

As a playmate,
and you

let her convince you
that she was family.

She was my family.

She accepted me...

..all of me...

..the scars,
the burns, the face

you raised me to
believe was

too repulsive
for the world to see.

You looked at me,
and you saw a monster.

She saw the window
to the world.

I will never,
ever betray her.

Tell me
where she is, son.

What are you doing?

Making it so you
no longer have a choice.

No, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no, no, no.

Uhh!

Let me have it!

- Aah!
- Aah!

[Mary grunting]

Aah! Hyah!

Mary!

My brilliant,
beautiful stepsister,

I beg you
as family.

That blood is
the only thing

that will keep me alive.

I know,

and I can't think of anyone
who deserves it less.

[Dial tone]

[Line ringing]

Man: Crows security.

I understand
you're looking

for the leader
of the wonderland gang.

I believe I know where that
little wench is hiding.

Kate: Good news.
Mary called,

said she found
something out.

She's on her way.

I like her.

Promise me
you'll protect her, ok?

We are not having
those conversations, ok?

You're gonna
make it through this.

You just have to
hold on.

Distract me then.

What's Luke's deal?

Why? Ok. The hallucinations
have definitely started.

[Coughing]

What about you, hmm?

Why are you
still single?

You sure this is how you want
to spend your last 45 minutes?

You and I...

We never did
the twin jealousy thing.

We were always
looking out for each other,

checking in,

getting advice,

but there's one thing
that you had

that I always wanted.

A soul mate.

Really?
Anyone I know?

[Helicopter approaching]

Man on P.A.: Alice, we know
you're inside.

Surrender immediately.

We have the building
surrounded.

[Sirens]

[Tires squealing]

Let's go!

Sophie: I'm at the west entrance
of Wayne tower,

positioned for entry.

Beth: What the hell
is going on?

Alice called the crows,
hoping they would kill you.

Even on her deathbed,
she's ruthlessly brilliant.

So we have
a major breach.

They're in the lobby,
ascending the east and west stairs.

Lock the elevators.

They're gonna be
here any second.

Kate.

Kate.

- Batcave now.
- Ok.

- Whoa, whoa, wait.
- What?

If the crows find you,
they will kill you.

Beth: Yeah, I know.
I got it.

Where are we going?

Catherine.

Ohh.

Catherine.

I see I'm...

Being hunted on my deathbed
by my past. Heh.

Ooh. I'm so scared.

The universe must think
fondly of Kate

to give her everything
that she wants,

the version of you
that she lost.

You don't know
my sister.

No. I beg to differ.

I've known her almost as
long as you've known her.

Because you're a snake,

who slithered her way
into my family.

I was accepted.

By your father,
by your sister,

and despite all of the
mistakes that I made,

I showed remorse.

You don't have
any remorse, Alice.

You're evil
through and through,

and that's why Kate
will never choose you.

[Grunting]

Here's what's
gonna happen.

Mary's gonna take
that syringe to Kate

and tell her that it
will only save one of us.

Kate... Kate's
gonna pick me.

For your sake,
I hope that's true,

but just in case
she chooses otherwise,

I'll save you
a seat in hell.

Beth: Well, I finally
found something

on this earth
to be jealous of.

Why risk your life every
night for a city of strangers?

Well, I think not
saving Beth that day

on the bridge ignited
something in me.

You couldn't save
your own mom and sister,

so now you save
every mom and sister.

Guilt can make sane people
do crazy things.

This isn't guilt.

This is courage.

Hey. You need to sit.

Luke: So the crows are
searching this place top to bottom.

I counted 50 or so
on foot

and 10 trucks outside,
a chopper in the air.

We're really going to
have wait them out.

We don't exactly have
time to wait.

[Cell phone vibrating]

Mary, where have
you been?

Ok.
I'll be right out.

Mary: Oh, my god.

What the hell happened?

Alice called the crows and
sent them into the building.

Oh, my god!
Did they find Beth?

She's fine. I have
a panic room, remember?

Ok. That's right.
That's genius.

- Ok. So how do we save them?
- What?

Said you found a way
to save them.

- What is it?
- No, no, no.

I said I found a solution
to save one... Beth.

My blood.

When Alice poisoned me,
she gave me an antidote,

the serum from the
coriana desert Rose.

She claimed it was
a universal cure-all,

and it worked like
a charm.

So we give it
to them both.

Then it'll cancel out,
and we'll end up

right where we started.

One has to have the edge
over the other

even if it's just
for a few seconds.

My blood will regenerate
enough of Beth's

red blood cells for her
to live a little bit longer.

And Alice dies,

and I walk away
from her all over again?

You are not actually
considering saving Alice,

are you?

Kate, this is
a no-brainer,

and not to rush you,
but you've got

less than 20 minutes
before they're both dead,

so go in there
and save one

of the most compassionate,
smartest humans

that I've ever met,

or go back into that clinic
and save Alice,

who killed my mom.

The choice is yours.

Kate... is that
really you?

It's me.

Tell me you found Mary.

Yeah.

Did she...
The syringe?

I know her blood is
the key to saving you.

I knew you'd come back.

I knew you'd
choose me.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Can we have a minute?

- Sure.
- Thanks.

You're really not gonna tell me
who my soul mate was, are you?

And ruin all the fun?

Luke told me
about the blood.

I'm sorry you're
in this position.

I'm sorry you are.

Look. Before you make
your decision,

can I just say
after spending time

with Alice
face to face,

her rage, her pain,

somehow I understand her,

and if circumstances had
turned out differently...

They didn't.

I didn't act.
I didn't save her.

I did nothing,

and I'm not about to do
nothing again.

You...

You have to hurry.

- Alice...
- No, Kate.

There's no time to...

I came to say
good-bye.

What?

Good-bye, Alice.

No.

Are you sure this is what
you want to do?

Just you asking that is proof
that I made the right choice.

You've always
been my hero.

You have to get her out
of here.

They're tearing through this place
book by book,

and it's only
a matter of time

- before they find the elevator.
- Yeah, but there's still

the small problem
of the checkpoints.

Right. Take my bike.

The tunnels will get you.
Past the perimeter of the building,

and the bike will get you
through the checkpoint.

I'll be there
as soon as I can.

So just back up.
Take your who now?

- Batbike.
- Ok. Yeah.

I was just making sure
I heard what you said.

Making sure.

Kate, I don't know
how I can ever thank you.

You're alive,
and that's all that matters.

Hey. Hey.
We got to go.

Why?

Because she's pure...
and good?

[Whimpering]

You don't even know me,
not the real me.

I know what
you showed me.

I couldn't save you,
and all I can hope

is that you find
peace.

Stay with me.

I'm here.

[Sirens]

- Halt!
- Stop!

William checkpoint
to Moore.

Sophie: Go for Moore.

Possible bat sighting.

Blazed through
William checkpoint

headed north,
unknown passenger.

Looked female.
Could be Alice.

Possible target.
Want us to pursue?

Negative.
Stay put. I'm on it.

Cartwright: I hope that
guard won't miss his face.

What the hell
are you doing to me?

Shh, shh, shh, shh.

Hush now, son.

I'll be back
for you soon.

[Mouse whimpering]

[Screaming]

[Wheezing]

Man, the acceleration index
on this bike is insane.

[No dialogue]

Moore to base.

I need backup for an arrest
at the twin pines inn.

[Gunshot]

Beth: Unh!

Luke: No. Hey.
No, no, no, no.

Hey. Come on.

Hey. Don't.
Come on. Wake up, Beth.

No. Beth, come on.

Beth, wake up.

No, no, no!

[Sobbing]

[Gasps]

You... let me die...

But I didn't.

Ha ha ha!

Man: Greg, move your head!
