"I don't know." "I feel..." "I feel like I've been born again." "Only without the diapers and crying." "Ha, ha." "It is a major transition, Helena." "Cultures throughout history have used the birthing method to characterize the way you feel." " Yep." "Well, I've got the feeling naked part pretty well down." "Ha, ha." "QUINZEL:" "You have exposed yourself." "You've revealed your secret identity, albeit inadvertently, to me." "You've crossed the threshold that was holding you back." "And you're no longer defined by your secret." "You're defined by you." "Hmm?" "Not the bartender, not the crime fighter." "Just you." "Me." "Me." "Ha, ha." "Someone I've been wanting to meet." "Let's try an exercise." "I want you to close your eyes." "Oh, I..." "I don't do the closed eyes thing." "Oh, you can trust me." "Ha, ha." " Ha, good." " All right." "Now, I want you to answer without thinking if it's Helena or Huntress speaking, okay?" " Okay." " Now, you're worried, very worried." "You can't keep your finger in the dike forever." "Your secret's gonna get out." "I have a job to do." "I can't do that if everyone knows who I am." "Why?" "There's a definite advantage to having an air of mystery." "Ha, ha." "The less people know about you, the bigger the edge." "Helena, who knows you best?" "Oh, Alfred and Barbara." "QUINZEL:" "Alfred?" "Alfred Pennyworth." "He was my Dad's butler." "He's been around forever." "He's always keeping an eye on me and the others." "Others?" "Yeah." "Other people." "People with secrets the same as mine." " How many of you are there?" " In New Gotham?" "Uh, just Barbara, Dinah and myself." " What?" " Uh..." "Things are changing." "Tell me." "Well, Barbara told someone the secret as well." "And I think it's someone that she's falling in love with." "Do you think she's made a mistake?" "No." "No, I don't." "He may crowd the place a bit but Wade makes her happier than she's ever been." " Wade?" " Brixton." "He teaches at the same high school as Barbara." " Wade Brixton." "He knows too, huh?" " Mm-hm." "Soon you should take out a full-page ad." "Unload all your secrets on New Gotham in one fell swoop." "But secrets drain your soul." "Paralyze the body." "I wouldn't be any kind of psychiatrist if I didn't do everything I can to relieve you of that burden." "But we're out of time." "Thank you." "Thank you." "[QUINZEL SIGHS]" "No, thank you, Helena." "You know, this is every bit as satisfying for me as it is for you." "[CHUCKLES]" "ROMANEK:" "The metahuman transfer machine isn't synched up yet." "QUINZEL:" "It's two simple little words, doctor." "I'm ready." "Can you say them for me, please?" "Uh, no, it's not calibrated." "I don't know if the oscillators are stable." "The hysteresis module is questionable." "Blah, blah, blah..." "Let's just do this thing, shall we?" "We shall." "[MAN SCREAMING]" "No!" "He's dead!" "He's dead." "The transfer machine, it's destroyed!" "None of which matters if the transfer was successful." "I did as you asked." "Uh, I wasn't..." "It wasn't ready." "But I can build another one!" "Shh." "Relax, doctor." "Maybe it worked." "Shall we see?" "Will you do anything I ask?" " Yes." " Pat your head." "Hop." "[LAUGHS]" "Now, run and jump out the window." "[LAUGHS]" "Looks like it worked." "REESE:" "This guy who took the sidewalk dive, he's, uh, Dr. Franklin Romanek." "Exit point was right here, third-story window." "And the room's filled with a bunch of pretty weird electrical gear." "HELENA:" "And that one?" "REESE:" "That one, he's unidentified." "He was tied to a chair with his eye sockets all burned out." "HELENA:" "Kinky." "REESE:" "Ha, ha." "Yeah, maybe, but definitely not consensual." "HELENA:" "So, what's your take?" "I don't know." "I mean, there's no sign of struggle." "No indication Romanek was pushed, no cause of death on the other guy." "So nothing's adding up." "So there I was, feeling lonely and vulnerable thinking you triggered the Batring because you missed me." "Ha, ha." "What, and risk a lecture from Oracle?" "I don't think so." "Besides, Miss Helena Kyle." "Mm-hm." "See, I know who you are, remember?" "See, all I do is pick up the telephone and press some buttons." " Is that a promise?" " Oh, no, no." "No, you don't." "I don't make promises while I'm on duty." "What's going on with you tonight?" "I mean, you're different." "I mean, you just, you seem happy." " Is that a bad thing?" " No, no." "Of course it's not a bad thing." "Ha, ha." "Look, anyway, there's an ATM across the street." "It's got a surveillance camera inside." "Should have a view of the only door to the building, but you know it could take the DA's office 24 hours to get a warrant for that video so..." "So you think I can do it better." "You know, detective, that sounds a lot like entrapment." "No, no, no." "See, it's only a whole lot like entrapment if there's actually a trap." "But it's still bad, right?" "You tell me." " Okay." "I'm on it." "And, detective?" " Ha, ha." "Hmm?" "Next time you wanna press those buttons..." "[CHUCKLES]" "BARBARA:" "It would have been perfect until Mr. Happy-Flush and his jolly band of plumbers decided to make an emergency house call." "So you're saying the video's useless?" "Ah, we'll see." "I'm gonna extract an image off of the truck's mirrors." "Try to reconstruct the scene by using a recursive spatial algorithm." "Excellent idea." "So this Dr. Romanek?" "You knew him?" "Knew of him." "He was working on an electro-ionic somatic dissociator." "Barbara." "He figured out how to transfer metahuman powers from one person to another." "Thank you." "So could he?" "Well, he had some interesting ideas, but as far as I knew, it was a pipe dream." " Mm." "What about the second guy?" " Well, if he was meta..." " lf who was meta?" "HELENA:" "Oh, just some shop talk." " You know, crime fighter stuff." " Hi." "I'm sorry." "I'm..." "I'm interrupting." "Uh, no, no." "No, uh, it's okay." "Stay." " We don't mind, right?" " Right." "Yeah, stay." "[FOOTSTEPS APPRO ACHING]" " I'm ready." " All right." "I gotta go." "Told Dinah I'd give her a lift." " Okay." "WADE:" "All right?" "WADE:" "See you later?" "BARBARA:" "Yeah." "Well, that was fun." "[SIGHS]" "We'll get used to it." "Yeah, sure." " Here you go, ladies." "WOMAN 1:" "Thanks." "WOMAN 2:" "Thank you." "Do you know how to make a Red Devil?" "Of course." "My name's, uh, Gibson Kafka." "I don't believe I've had the pleasure." " Harleen Quinzel." " Dr. Harleen Quinzel?" " Oh, well, we have a friend in common." " Do we?" "Yeah." "Helena Kyle." "Yeah, she's a very close friend of mine." "Very close." "How wonderfully coincidental." "Oh, uh..." " You're not a meta." " That was true." "I wasn't metahuman until just recently." "Um, I don't understand." "You don't need to understand, Gibson Kafka." "You simply need to listen." "I'm here to test a theory." "Will you do anything I ask?" "I can't imagine why not, Dr. Quinzel." "Oh, please, Harley." "Harley Quinn." "Now, bark." " Bark?" "Like what?" " A dog." "Uh, what kind of a dog?" "Bulldog, Dane, Irish terrier, mastiff Pekinese, Shar-Pei, wolfhound..." "You pick." "[BARKS]" "It's a Chihuahua." "Of course, there are many different kinds of animals that bark." "Deer, hyena, spider monkey, squirrel, tree frog." " There's a locust that makes a sound much..." " Stop." "You know, I didn't know my power would work with a metahuman but it seems you're as susceptible as anyone else." "There's just one more thing I'm curious about." "I want you to lose your mind." "[CHUCKLES]" "[BARKING]" "Stop it." "Aah!" "Argh!" "[BARKING]" "BARBARA [OVER RADIO]:" "Huntress Delphi's flagged a report of a disturbance at No Man's Land." " Disturbance?" " Yeah." "Police report says riot." " The store out front was trashed." " What about the bar?" "No mention." "I don't think they found it." "I'm on my way." " What the hell?" "MEN:" "Aah!" "Gibson?" "Gibson, are you here?" "[GIBSON WHIMPERING NEARBY]" "[GIBSON GASPING]" "Gibson, Gibson, are you okay?" "What happened?" "A sensation of peppery sweetness." "Four, uh, 39, 84." "Into the valley of death rode the 600." " Gibson, what's wrong?" " Raspberry." "Licorice." "Lemon." "Peanut butter." "Mint." "Banana." "Cookie dough." "Make it stop." "Please, I need help." "Please, make it stop." "In my head." "I need help." "Please, Huntress, my head." "Stop what in your head?" " Oracle, are you there?" "BARBARA:" "Yes, Huntress." "I'm at No Man's Land and the place is trashed." "Gibson, I don't know, it's like he's psychotic or something." "Get him to a hospital." "I got a better idea." "HELENA:" "Come on, Gibson." "It's okay." "You'll be all right." "[KNOCKING ON DOOR]" "Dr. Quinzel?" " Dr. Quinzel?" "GIBSON:" "Oh." "Oh." "Yes, not enough shapes." "Hexagon, triangle, square, pentagon..." "Gibson, come on." "Let's go back to the Clocktower." "[GASPS]" "Helena." "Oh, dear." "Somebody need my help?" "You were the only person I could think of that might be able to help him." "[DOOR OPENS]" "What happened with Gibson?" "Uh, I left him with Quinzel." "She felt like she could help." " Dinah around?" " No." "I sent her to get Reese and check out No Man's." "Why?" "It's the middle of the night." "What's the rush?" "The rush is I found out who the other dead guy is." " Oh." " The guy with the burned-out eye sockets." "Coroner finally made an ID." "I ran the name through my database, and it turns out he was meta." " So?" " So?" "So his power was hypnosis." "Now, if Dr. Romanek's device could actually transfer metahuman powers..." "Here, here, take a look at this." "I got an image of the suspect off the ATM video." "The enhancement routine is just about done." "Now, I'm betting when we see that face we're gonna be seeing someone who stole a metahuman hypnotic power." "Sounds bad." "Yeah, we'll know in a minute." "[SIGHS]" "Helena, um I wanna talk to you about Wade." "What's there to talk about?" "Well he's not gonna change us." "Nothing could do that." "I know." "All right, I'm just throwing it out there." "You seemed a little distant." "Oh, Barbara, forget it." " Everything's okay." " Okay." "BARBARA:" "Enhancement's finished." "It's Dr. Quinzel." "Helena?" "Oops." "Busted." "[LAUGHS]" "GIBSON:" "Lumbar, the sacrum, and the coccyx." "Twenty-six, off the head." "Squeeze, watch your back." "Watch your back." "Barbara knows." " What happened?" " I hit her." "Hard." " That would tend to give it away." " But I got what you wanted." "The complete blueprint of the Clocktower." "Layouts, defenses, securities, computer systems." " It's all gibberish." " Ninety newton pounds per square inch angled at the jaw, renders 50 percent of the female population unconscious as defined by the obliteration of a frien..." " Gibson." "Shut up." "Tell me something, Helena." "Why didn't you just kill Barbara?" "Kill her?" " I don't know." "GIBSON:" "Superheroes don't kill." "No matter how hard they hit their Barbara." "[IMITATES ROCKET FIRING]" "Incoming, headless best friend!" "Maybe it's because you didn't tell me to." "An oversight on my part which we'll soon remedy." "Oh, good heavens, Miss Barbara." "You gave me quite a scare." " Where's Helena?" " She's not here." "What happened?" "We have a very serious problem, Alfred." "BARBARA [OVER RADIO]:" "Dinah, come in." " I read you, Oracle." " I need you back here immediately." "It's Huntress." "She's been compromised." "And, Dinah, she's dangerous." " What is it?" " Something bad happened to Helena." "She's dangerous." "I gotta get back." "Oh." "What's the big rush?" "REESE:" "Come on, let's go." "HELENA:" "Ha, ha." "Aw." " You guys aren't fun anymore." " Helena, this isn't you." "You're hypnotized." " You can beat it." " Right." " I don't think you're getting through to her." " Ha, ha." "Save yourself the trouble." "Promise I'll finish you off quick." " Helena has Dinah and Reese trapped." " What are you gonna do?" "Miss Barbara, I must object in the most strenuous terms." "Objection noted." "The last time you used the coupler, it didn't exactly work as advertised." "I've done a lot of work on it since then." "I've improved the batteries, increased the sensitivity." "It doesn't even hurt that much anymore." "The device, you are fiddling with your spinal cord, connecting your nervous system." " It could kill you or get you killed." " We're in trouble, Alfred." "What choice do I have?" "[CHATTER OVERPOLICE RADIO]" "Can I help you, ma'am?" "I think you can, officer." "You and a few of your burliest friends." " Me and Jesse." "We can help you." " Hey, Blondie." "Not interested." " Come on." "Don't do this." "This is not you." " Sure it is." "The same girl that you kissed." " She kissed you?" " Yeah." "That was my mistake." "I don't think it was a mistake at all." "Ha, ha." "And the next time you're ready for round two, just let me know." " I think it's gonna wait." " Oh." "BARBARA:" "Helena." "HELENA:" "Oh, you're walking." "I can help you, Helena." "HELENA:" "I don't need help." " You better not get any closer." "BARBARA:" "Why not?" "Then I'll have to hurt you." " I don't think you'll do that." "HELENA:" "Just goes to show." "The all-knowing Oracle isn't right all the time." "Helena, it's me, Barbara." "Sorry." "I gotta kill you now." "[GASPS]" "What's going on?" "What am I doing here?" "Short version, Dr. Quinzel hypnotized you." "She's the big bad we've been searching for." " Did we just, um..." "Did we just fight?" "BARBARA:" "Yeah." "I could've killed you." "It was a calculated risk." "I had to get close enough so I could fire this into your eyes." "DINAH:" "Hey." " Kyle, a little help?" "This thing's jammed." "I don't remember anything." "The last thing I know, I was at Dr. Quinzel's with Gibson." "And then you were in the Clocktower." "Helena, try to remember." "What is Quinzel up to?" "Very impressive." "I'm immediately comfortable." "[CHUCKLES]" "WADE:" "Excuse me." " Who are you?" " Who are you?" "Wade." "Wade Brixton." "Wade." "Oh!" "I am having just the best day." "New Gotham's finest protecting and serving me and only me Huntress doing my bidding, and now, here I move into my new home and who do I find breathlessly waiting but the man Barbara Gordon loves." "What next?" "Hey, Wade." "Will you do anything I ask?" "Yes." "Kiss me, Wade Brixton." "[KNIFE SLICES]" "[VOICE ECHOING] Kiss me good night." "[WADE HITS FLOOR]" "BARBARA:" "Argh." "DINAH:" "What is it?" "The Clocktower system's not responding." " Comm glitch?" " Maybe." "I'll call Alfred and have him run a check." "[DIALING PHONE]" "[LINE RINGING]" "Come on, Alfred, pick up." "[RINGING]" "Barbara Gordon I can't tell you how disappointed I was that you weren't here to welcome me." "[OVERINTERCOM] What's the matter?" "Bat got your tongue?" "BARBARA [OVERSPEAKER]:" "Very witty, Quinzel." "Oh, please, it's Harley." "Harley Quinn." "And quite soon, this city, or what's left of it, will be mine." "Don't count on it." "What are you going to do?" "Your friend Helena isn't playing on your team anymore." "And she told me all kinds of useful things about you and Dinah and the Clocktower." "And here I am." "Ready to make my dream come true." "All thanks to Helena Kyle." "Your friend." "Your betrayer." "BARBARA:" "Helena didn't betray anyone." "Whatever happened, the Helena I know had nothing to do with it." "Spoken like a true friend." "So confident so sure." "I wonder, would you feel different if I told you it was Helena who told me about Loverboy?" "Your handsome, young sweetheart, Wade Brixton?" "Would it flip a switch somewhere deep in your psyche to know that we kissed, Wade and I?" "No?" "How about if I told you I stabbed him in the heart?" "Would that do it?" "To know that Wade was dead?" "Would that change how you feel, Barbara Gordon?" "Hmm?" " Barbara?" " Don't." "[INHALES DEEPLY]" "[SIGHS]" "We need a plan." "Now, we have to assume that Harley's got complete control over the Clocktower." "Helena." "Helena." "[IMITATING DRUMMING]" "[IMITATING TRUMPET PLAYING]" "Shh." "A few more adjustments." "Done." "Oh!" "Every television in New Gotham is receiving my signal!" "Oh, Gibson." "Everyone watching will go mad." "Ranting, writhing, stark, raving, full-metal jacket nuts!" "Ha, ha!" "The city will be on its knees." " I need a drink." "Pennyworth!" "ALFRED:" "Madam?" " Buttle me." "Something strong." " As you wish." "Might I suggest a selection from Master Bruce's private stock?" "Yes." "That sounds perfect." "[BOTH GIGGLE]" "[CROWD SHOUTING NEARBY]" " What's going on?" " I don't know." "Bunch of kids smashing things up in the halls." "[GLASS SMASHING NEARBY]" "Oh, God, it's Harley." "I've hacked far enough into the Clocktower to tell she's using it to hijack every televised broadcast in New Gotham." "She must be sending out some kind of hypnotic signal." "Driving everyone crazy." " Can you stop it?" " No." "Not from here." "We need to get back to the Clocktower." "Did you get everything?" "Yeah." "The infirmary only had a few contact lenses." "We need enough for us." "I'll add a polarizing layer to the contacts to give us immunity." " Like a one-way mirror." " Exactly." "What about them?" "Do you think you can broadcast an antidote?" "Yeah, probably." "If we can get back to the Clocktower." "And without Helena..." "[DOOR OPENS]" "I don't wanna talk." "You wanna drink, you can stay." "They need you." "Did you hear what I said?" "[SCOFFS]" "Who are you right now?" "Hmm?" "You're not hypnotized anymore." "But the Helena Kyle that I know, I don't recognize her now." "Maybe that's because she's a mirage." " You're not responsible." " Sure I am." "I told Quinzel about Wade before I was hypnotized." "[SCOFFS]" "I let her see me." "I told her so much." "I let her in, Reese." "Who was I kidding?" "One minute of thinking that I might be as good as my father." "This isn't about that." "From what I can tell, it never has been." "Come on." "This right here, what you're doing, this is about you." "Helena, look at me." "Hey, look at me." "What are you so afraid of?" "You don't get it, Reese." "It's not worth it." "Wade is dead." "And before all this is over, any one of us could be." "Or worse." "I don't want that to be you." "If this wasn't worth it, if my life didn't matter to you if yours didn't matter to me, then I would help you finish this bottle." "But damn it, Helena, it does matter." "Okay, it hurts." "It hurts like hell but that's how you know it's worth it." "What if it hurts too much?" "[SIGHS]" "I'm kidding myself." "A few pairs of contacts aren't gonna help when the whole city's gone mad." "It's over." "It is not over." "We'll get back into the Clocktower." "The Clocktower's a fortress." "We can't get in." "No one can." "HELENA:" "I can." "I'm sorry I ran." "It won't happen again." "I'm so sorry for what I did." " Look, Helena..." " No." "We'll argue later." "Right now I've got an idea." "[HELICOPTER FLYING O VERHEAD]" "QUINZEL:" "Oh, what happened?" "I've been worried." "I killed them." "Slowly." "You have a future in this organization." "Come here." "Let me look at you." "[BARKS]" "What?" "Is my makeup running again?" "No." "You look lovely as usual." "Go, rest." "Eat." "We have work to do later." "[BARBARA GRO ANS]" "Hey." "You sure you're gonna be all right?" "Yeah, I'm fine." "What if this thing quits on you?" "You lose control of your legs." " That's a long way down." " Then you go on without me." "That's not gonna happen." "All right." "Helena should have the security bypassed by now." "You ready?" "DINAH:" "Yeah." " Let's go." "ALFRED:" "That will be quite enough of that, Miss Helena." "Mistress Harley will be sorely disappointed." " Unh!" " We could do this all night." "That's always been one of my two favorite sentences." "QUINZEL:" "Why won't you tell me how you broke my hypnotic spell?" "Let me think." "Could it be because you're psycho?" "[GIBSON WHIMPERS]" "Wait." "That's right." "An evil psycho." "[GIBSON WHIMPERS]" "HELENA:" "Wait." "Wait, I almost forgot." "An evil, psycho bitch." "[SIGHS]" "[HELENA GRUNTS]" " Is that all you got?" " You know, I have to say, I am impressed." "You've taken it for so long." " I kind of had to." " Oh, right." "Superhero code." " No." " No?" "Okay, I'll bite." "I had to buy Alfred enough time to disable the security system." "What?" " All set, Alfred?" " All set, Miss Helena." " Oh, Mistress Harley, buttle this." " Oh, you have an antidote." "Oh, that is so annoying." "I'll just have to give you another dose." "No go." "Treated contact lenses." "Oh, nice." "But who are we kidding?" "He's a hundred years old." "They'll kill him in two seconds." "Yeah, I think it's gonna be a tiny bit more interesting than you think." " Thanks." " Nice crib." "We like to call it home." "[GIBSON YELLING]" "[LAUGHING HYSTERICALLY]" "[YELLING]" " Where is he?" " Oh, Mr. Wade Brixton?" "He's gone." "Does it bother you that my lips were the last his touched?" "Soft lips." "So sweetly tender." "Cute little trickle of blood running out his side when he died." "Barbara, don't." " Stay back, Helena." "HELENA:" "Barbara, listen to me." " There's nothing left to say." " Yes, there is." "You have saved me so many times, it's my turn." "When my mom died, you told me something that I didn't understand until right now." "You told me revenge might dull the pain but the less we felt, the less we were." " It was a lie." "HELENA:" "No, it wasn't." "Barbara, this is my last chance to get forgiveness for what I did." "If I could give my life to have Wade back, you know I would but I can't." "Barbara, we don't kill, no matter what." "I can't let you do this." "It makes us less." "It makes us less." "Barbara." "So Alfred, you worked for this bat guy?" "Batman." "Yes, detective, for many years." " And he lived in a cave?" " Well, no." "Master Bruce lived in the manor." "The Batcave was his operational headquarters, as it were." "Ha, ha." "Right." "Well, what was up with this, uh, Robin character?" "What was his story?" "[ALFRED CHUCKLES]" "DINAH:" "You sure you're okay, Gibson?" " Quite sure." "No aftereffects whatsoever." "Although I find it deeply disturbing that for the first time in my life including gestation, I remember absolutely none of it." " Ha, ha." "Consider yourself lucky." " Was it really that bad?" "Let's just say we had no idea you identified so closely with King Kong." "[ALL LAUGH]" " Anyway, do you need a hand?" " Yeah." "Delphi's quiet and the news reports say everything's back to normal." "Yeah, at least out there." " Barbara, I..." " We've all lost people before, Helena." "You, me, Dinah." "And as long as we do this, that's a chance we take." "God, I miss him." "Barbara, I'm so sorry." "I know you are but you never chose any of this." "And what you did to set it right..." "You know what you did." "You know who you are, Helena." "Yeah." "I kind of feel like maybe now I do." "Maybe I'm not Batman's little girl anymore." "Sometimes I feel like he's watching... ..looking over my shoulder." "Looking down on all of us." "Ha." "Kind of like a big guardian bat." "Ha, ha." "Kind of." "Kind of like that." "ALFRED:" "Master Bruce I thought you might want to know, your daughter's doing rather well." "You would be most proud." "Most proud indeed." "[ENGLISH SDH]"
