More than Bob, much, more fun. Glad to hear it, that no of clinical distance in your voice, professional Detachment. Absolutely intoxicating, that's not well, nothing more than To defuse the tension in the room right now but you see doctor your little evasions are just logs on the bonfire of your seduction. Oh, You're seducing me right now. I do have that effect on people. Should I be feeling some kind of heat or something? It comes in many forms. Maybe we could talk about what brought you to Arkham. What brought me your crimes, it says here. You blew up a bank, a tracking Hub and insurance agency and Toy Factory. You know, know you're denying that. You know, I did all that. Yeah, there was wonderful but to answer your question.

He sort of growls, come on Doctor. You've seen the news gasps, dr. Quinzel yes. Yes Batman, he brought me here late at night clutched in his warm embrace. You described him as a puppet. How would you describe it? Is it dancing marionette, the eager brainless defender of business. As usual. His strings pulled by the Geppetto's of Gotham Wayne and his cronies that's what I was trying to show with your bombs. I was merely. I lighting the wonderful circle of life here in Gotham, huh? From the little kitties choo-choo trains to the old folks, wheezing away their insurance checks. It's the Wayne industrial complex is there at every stop. Billy pocketing their take and they call me the crew. and, How does the costume fit into all this, hmm, decode the pants to make up in that back? By the way, I feel so won't flush. Don't you say you're making a big statement about? But I don't know capitalism. But all anybody sees is, you can I say doctor? I'm an Entertainer. Oh okay. Entertainment on what? Tell that a joke. Angel. Well, that's kind of you're saying, right? You need to tell you what, if that's a problem? I don't know. I don't know. Just I might just need a little house. Sure. Okay. What is the difference between a cop and a milk carton? I don't know why. The cops they have one has missing. No, the cop doesn't even necessarily Hey, you didn't even touch her lunch. Did you get up at all from that recliner? Today, the doctor said, you've got to keep moving. The treatment doesn't work unless I work the treatment. Again, I'll make up for tomorrow. Double every typical everything. All right, all right, all right, all right. Promise me, you'll remember me from when I was strong. Don't talk like that Tri-State, man. I could carry those barrels all day long. One on each shoulder, like they were nothing but they weren't nothing. Whether nobody knows. Those chemicals are dangerous. That's a coincidence. They may do off the minute, you got sick. No, they were time and a half, paid vacation. Yeah. Three days a year. We had fun. Remember Fourth of July weekend. Amusement Mi, you wrote the Tilton world to the You see straight and then fell asleep right in the middle of the fire, Workshop, explosions, going off, left and right. That you they're curled up in my arms snoring like a lumberjack. We should go there again after the Athletics, right? It's going to happen that I'm taking care of. It can't keep going like this like what what do you sell? Fraggin working I can't do my job. If I cannot hear you, I'm sorry, my dad's asleep. Well, he used to work at Tri-State and I'm trying to talk to a that he supervisor or he worked at the factory. On Decatur Street, he had a patch on his jacket, a little flame inside a hexagon, like, industrial Hot Melt, please hold This is going to mr. Gorton. Hi. My name is harleen, quinzel. I'm calling this harleen quinzel. If you would know, And he's very sick. Sorry to hear that, he's got a tumor, the size of God, which off the doctor said, could be caused by the chemicals at your. Let me stop you there. So, you know, I've heard the claim show me the study, when show me the study that proves it. His doctor, same doctor can say anything he wants. Doesn't change the fact that no. Eric study has ever conclusively. Linked are polymers to cancer of any type of this materials. It was right. My dad's job description is a hazardous material does that give people cancer? What? That's naughty. It's quinzel, was it? Look, I'm trying to save you some heartache. Your dad doesn't have much time. Don't spend his last days. Banging your head against a wall. Hi, it says here your Margaret P.I rat and you're suffering from persistent. Delusional disorder, persecution, anxiety and compulsive communion. I'd hardly call it suffering. Okay, so I just need to run through a few quick question. Do you have any paper by any chance? What the newspaper today's I think I do. Well, let me see it. If we can just stay with them, Greenwood just a peek and then I'll answer whatever you want. Okay, yes, there we go. Batman foils Museum, Heist. That's you. Okay, let's see. The city's number one vigilante concluded as plain. Bread is great with this top of the governor's IAM of Antiquities, blah, blah, blah blah, blah. Okay, okay. You've had a peak now, let's go. Oh my God, you've got to be kidding. What? They don't even mention my name until paragraph six and they spelled it. To read letters you shit logs. It's py e. How do you hate? Let's just focus. We were tired working on the Mughal Emerald. Heist for six months. I built a 14-1 replica of the Vault so I could run it blindfolded. I learned to fly a goddamn helicopter for the getaway for Christ's sakes. Okay. I'm just gonna put Downs, needs and prove all that work didn't amount to shit. Next, let's talk about impulse control, maybe composers, come Waltzing, onto the scene. No Style, no narrative, but everyone's swoons like Milo. He's what a chemist. But evil that's supposed to count as a Persona. This is all great stuff, but the sooner I will get last question. It's a mask, it's painted black, what I mean could you be more obvious? Tired emo garbage? But everyone's already Magpie. I was trying to do something different. I undertake a real splash. Ash, but now I'm competing with 100. Lunkhead copycats just to have my name. Misspelled in an article that isn't even about me in a matter what you do, no matter what you do, it only makes Batman more famous like why are we even doing it in the first place? You know, what do you mean sometimes? I just feel like But even cool anymore, you know, maybe I'll just go back to grad school. No, no. Before that you said, no matter what you do Batman's getting all the attention. Well, yeah, it's absolutely maddening. But are you saying that? That's why I'm with a patient. My dad tell him. I will call him after Hey kid. What the hell were you thinking? I tripped. I thought we agreed. We do not. Leave the apartment. It's an emergency. I know. Well, emergency we run a toasty. Perfect. God, your face. Does it hurt when he left work for this? How did it go today? You talk to the clan has dr. Ramos in you. Where's your chart? You're being extra. Careful around that guy, right? Patient. Jay, I've got bigger problems. I thought you said it was the most dangerous. Yeah, that's what. Thanks to you. He's just a peacock in Wolf's clothing. Nothing, I haven't dealt with before. Don't get too comfortable. Still got the taser pain. Right? Dad. Even mr. Quinzel, hey dr. Robbins, oh harleen. Hi, doctor, I'm glad you're here. You know, I could chew but you're just follow me out to the nurse's station for a sec. I've is, I've got a minor billing question. Hmm. Nothing to worry about, I'll be right back. Okay, Dad, I know where to find me? The tumor is putting tremendous pressure on, okay? And it's growing faster than we predicted what we need to act quickly, how quickly a week at most, okay, okay, just just, let's do it. Let's just schedule the operation right, right. Stop. As soon as we have that initial payment, I'll get the money please. Can we? I'm just, I'm afraid, it's Hospital, policy can't conduct any procedure. Yes. Hi, Aunt Rose, it's Helene. Oh, surprise Howleen. So um my dad. He's not doing so great. Aunt Rose. He's done his cancer is spreading. Oh, that's what it does, it spreads and I was wondering if and the treatment he needs is it's really expensive. And I don't quite have enough saved up yet and he's running out of time. I would ask one of his relatives, but, you know, he doesn't have any holidays, it's not wise to Make some money with family causes resentment. It would just be a one-time thing and I would pay it right back. It's urgent. Aunt, Rose. That's the thing. A, he can't wait the procedure act so much like your mother right now what gasps one-time thing. Oh, I'll pay you back. This is nothing like how she was a gifted Storyteller ever. Since we were little, your own poet, turn on our bedroom light, I would be so scared of it. She'd stop spinning the most fantastic Tales to calm me down. I believe. That's why she became so pharmaceutically inclined. Later on lies. The real world. Never measured up to the one in higher, ed and Russ, I wouldn't ask you if it wasn't extremely important. It was always terribly important when she asked to always some life or death threat, Aunt Rose, he will die if he doesn't have this procedure, Please. I gave your mother everything she asked for every time she asked, I gave into her desperate, pleas year, after year, rent groceries, car loans, it all would write up a nose in Iran between October. This is my everyone must live with our choices choice. It's the only way to learn from our mistake. This is not a mistake. This is my dad's life. Well, certainly wish I could help you all do but I've done more than enough for your family. Well, my dad's basically dying and I can't even cover a fraction of the operation not to mention that I'm probably getting fired unless I play along with grunfeld, batshit rubric. And meanwhile, I got to deal with this Joker. Oh excuse me. Patient Jay and his egomaniacal pervy delusion. So yeah. So yeah. My face might look a little, what was it? You said weird. Yeah. Is that a problem? No, I just started. What we've started? What was it huh? Domestic Discord. A little trouble with your bow. What's his name? Wait, let me guess. Let me guess.

Is he cheating on you no longer thrusting with intensity. He used to stop. Isn't that what you wanted? I'll free-flowing conversation and unfiltered glimpse into my brooding to test Within I just think we should try to be honest with each other. I agree. So what are you ready to be honest with me about what you're really committing to this whole doctor/patient routine, huh? Fine, you want me to spell it out while you hide behind your clipboard. I'm talking about us. Doing me. We weren't looking for it, but it sure found us. Call it infatuation. Call it raw animal attraction. Call it Elmo. But isn't it a relief to finally admit? But we're both feeling. I haven't admitted anything. So you admit, there is something to admit patients, me, what you're feeling is natural, a common byproduct of the therapeutic setting, but We'll never make progress if we don't focus on the matter at hand. What is an ant? You your mental state? The moral implications of your crimes. Okay, fine. Who are you, dr. Quinzel. I hope you've got a little patient. Let's discuss my crimes. Why the air quotes Prime's are what these other poor fools to crock amygdala? Yeah, sweet guy actually but he loses his temper strips down to His undies and wept. Smashes up a poke bar. That's a crime but you're different. Why? Thank you, dr. Quinzel, I am different. Yes. Let me guess you create spectacles and performance effect that I like that is it important to you to feel different from an 81. He's a child from all of them.
