1
00:00:00,042 --> 00:00:03,087
Asking the question
on everyone's mind these days.
2
00:00:03,170 --> 00:00:05,589
What do you think about the Batman?
3
00:00:05,673 --> 00:00:09,593
That guy who beat up the cops?
I don't like him, not one bit.
4
00:00:09,677 --> 00:00:12,680
My sister and me,
we think he might be a vampire.
5
00:00:12,763 --> 00:00:15,224
Well, I say this Batman's
got a lot of moxie.
6
00:00:15,307 --> 00:00:17,601
About time someone gave
these cops a licking.
7
00:00:18,436 --> 00:00:20,646
I'm frightened. That's what I think.
8
00:00:20,730 --> 00:00:22,898
I won't go out after dark now.
9
00:00:22,982 --> 00:00:26,277
This whole city's gone to hell
in a handbasket.
10
00:00:26,360 --> 00:00:27,880
Well, he's breaking the law, ain't he?
11
00:00:27,945 --> 00:00:29,947
So they ought to catch that freak
and lock him up.
12
00:00:30,030 --> 00:00:32,908
And now, he's even attacking our brave police.
13
00:00:32,992 --> 00:00:35,369
Well, I say this will not stand.
14
00:00:35,453 --> 00:00:39,123
The people elected me
to make this a better city, a safer city,
15
00:00:39,206 --> 00:00:41,417
a city of law and order.
16
00:00:41,500 --> 00:00:44,128
So today,
I'm announcing a special taskforce
17
00:00:44,211 --> 00:00:48,048
to catch this Batman character
and bring him to justice.
18
00:00:48,132 --> 00:00:50,676
This man is not a hero. He's a criminal.
19
00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:53,596
And his time in Gotham is up.
20
00:00:53,679 --> 00:00:55,347
[reporters] Mr. Mayor! Mr. Mayor!
21
00:00:55,431 --> 00:00:59,101
Hope you were listening, Gordon.
This bat's your problem now.
22
00:00:59,185 --> 00:01:01,145
And you'd better not screw it up.
23
00:01:01,228 --> 00:01:03,939
Okay, okay. One at a time, fellas.
24
00:01:04,023 --> 00:01:06,484
[melancholy music playing]
25

{\an8}[theme music playing]
26
00:01:42,853 --> 00:01:44,605
[Bullock]
You gotta be kidding me, Commish.
27
00:01:44,688 --> 00:01:47,983
Me and Flass put away more crooks
than the rest of that squad combined.
28
00:01:48,067 --> 00:01:50,152
It should be us running this taskforce.
29
00:01:50,236 --> 00:01:52,571
You and your partner
are the reason for all this.
30
00:01:52,655 --> 00:01:54,782
I got Boss Thorne
taking over the Narrows,
31
00:01:54,865 --> 00:01:57,660
but I have to waste our resources
chasing a shadow
32
00:01:57,743 --> 00:01:59,995
because you got your picture in the paper.
33
00:02:00,079 --> 00:02:02,915
Sorry, Bullock.
You're not getting rewarded for that.
34
00:02:02,998 --> 00:02:06,502
But her? You really think the men
are going to take orders from that...
35
00:02:06,585 --> 00:02:10,256
I expect my men
to obey the chain of command.
36
00:02:10,339 --> 00:02:12,341
Even, you. Now, stop complaining.
37
00:02:12,424 --> 00:02:14,027
You've already made us late
for the briefing.
38
00:02:14,051 --> 00:02:17,721
And I won't say it's going to be easy,
but catching criminals is what we do.
39
00:02:17,805 --> 00:02:20,224
So this one dresses up like Dracula.
So what?
40
00:02:20,307 --> 00:02:23,060
Still a criminal,
and we're going to take him down.
41
00:02:23,143 --> 00:02:25,729
What do we know about this Batman?
Chandler?
42
00:02:25,813 --> 00:02:28,858
He's mostly been seen between ten at night
and four in the morning.
43
00:02:28,941 --> 00:02:31,652
Usually driving that hot rod of his
100 miles an hour.
44
00:02:31,735 --> 00:02:34,738
And he's been spotted
in the East End more than anywhere else.
45
00:02:34,822 --> 00:02:36,907
Yeah, he's been beating
the tar out of muggers
46
00:02:36,991 --> 00:02:39,076
and dope peddlers out there
the last few weeks.
47
00:02:39,159 --> 00:02:41,954
I still can't believe Gordon
put her in charge.
48
00:02:42,037 --> 00:02:44,874
Just bide your time.
I'll figure something.
49
00:02:44,957 --> 00:02:46,417
Okay. What else do we know?
50
00:02:46,500 --> 00:02:48,544
Well, we know he's not scared
of the police.
51
00:02:48,627 --> 00:02:52,339
Corrigan's right. The Bat put half a dozen
officers in the hospital last month.
52
00:02:52,423 --> 00:02:55,759
- Not including Flass and Bullock.
- [laughter]
53
00:02:56,969 --> 00:03:00,681
Yeah, real funny, but I still don't see
a plan here, Montoya.
54
00:03:00,764 --> 00:03:02,600
So how are you gonna
actually catch this guy?
55
00:03:02,683 --> 00:03:04,268
Well, we're gonna trap him,
56
00:03:04,351 --> 00:03:07,187
and we're going to start
by casting a wide net.
57
00:03:12,109 --> 00:03:14,445
[screams, grunts]
58
00:03:14,528 --> 00:03:18,324
Better have something in that purse,
sister, or this is getting ugly fast.

Geez! Take it easy, Driver.
61
00:03:23,787 --> 00:03:26,081
Sorry, Romy.
I was trying to make it look real.
62
00:03:26,165 --> 00:03:28,792
Well, maybe avoid
the trash cans next time.
63
00:03:28,876 --> 00:03:31,754
[sighs] So, what, we wait ten minutes
and do it again?
64
00:03:31,837 --> 00:03:34,298
[Driver] Hm... yeah.
65
00:03:35,758 --> 00:03:37,384
Keep away from me, you!
66
00:03:37,468 --> 00:03:40,012
You're only making it worse
on yourself, old man.

Help! Somebody help me!
68
00:03:42,681 --> 00:03:44,683
Oh, God! Please! No!
69
00:03:44,767 --> 00:03:46,685
He's going to kill me! Somebody help!
70
00:03:48,604 --> 00:03:50,689
No! No, wait! Please!
71
00:03:50,773 --> 00:03:55,110
Listen. Listen, guys.
I just need a few more days, please.
72
00:03:55,194 --> 00:03:58,238
That ain't up to us, pal.
Guess we gotta carve you up now.
73
00:03:58,322 --> 00:04:00,741
No, wait! Don't! No!

Hey, you can't leave us like this!
77
00:04:13,128 --> 00:04:14,880
This is command, status update.
78
00:04:14,964 --> 00:04:18,342
Command, this is Decoy One.
Negative so far.
79
00:04:18,425 --> 00:04:22,137
- Decoy Two, also negative.
- Decoy Three, we got bupkis.
80
00:04:22,221 --> 00:04:23,973
Decoy Four, status?
81
00:04:24,056 --> 00:04:27,142
Command, he was here,
but we didn't see him, exactly.
82
00:04:27,226 --> 00:04:30,104
And, uh, I think we need a fire truck.
83
00:04:30,187 --> 00:04:33,607
Damn it. We should have had men
on the rooftops, too.
84
00:04:33,691 --> 00:04:35,985
- He would've spotted them.
- Yeah, he's sharp.
85
00:04:36,068 --> 00:04:38,445
But I figure he'd respond to screaming,
no matter what.
86
00:04:38,529 --> 00:04:43,450
- So, what do we do next, boss?
- Tomorrow night, we up the stakes.

- Repeat, all units respond.

Well, hot diggity.

No! Look out!

Damn it! We had him!
103
00:06:16,168 --> 00:06:19,546
Well, I think it's a shame.
A shame that our current mayor
104
00:06:19,630 --> 00:06:22,883
wants to waste taxpayer money
on such an obvious political stunt.
105
00:06:22,966 --> 00:06:25,385
But worse, it turns out
his special taskforce
106
00:06:25,469 --> 00:06:28,931
isn't even up to their special task.
It's an embarrassment.
107
00:06:29,014 --> 00:06:31,475
This is why I'm running
against Mayor Jessop,
108
00:06:31,558 --> 00:06:34,770
because Gotham needs to be strong again
and safe and proud.
109
00:06:34,853 --> 00:06:37,940
And with Harvey Dent as your mayor,
you will be.

- [Jessop yelling] The freakin' front page?
112
00:06:47,407 --> 00:06:50,702
- Yes, Mr. Mayor. I saw the paper.
- So what are you doing about it?
113
00:06:50,786 --> 00:06:53,413
- Sir, we're doing every...
- Because I thought I was very clear
114
00:06:53,497 --> 00:06:56,166
that catching this masked freak
is your top priority!
115
00:06:56,250 --> 00:06:59,128
Yes, and it's got our full attention.
I have everyone out on the street.
116
00:06:59,211 --> 00:07:02,965
I want good headlines, Gordon! Wasn't that
the whole point of you in that job?
117
00:07:03,048 --> 00:07:05,843
- Good press!
- Sir, we'll catch him. I just...

All clear on 10th and Market.
121
00:07:14,393 --> 00:07:15,644
No sign of target.
122
00:07:28,407 --> 00:07:29,992
Don't move! Halt!
123
00:07:30,576 --> 00:07:31,702
Stop, damn you!

[Montoya] Wait. He was here?
127
00:07:54,308 --> 00:07:56,435
Right in the damn conference room!
128
00:07:56,518 --> 00:08:00,230
I've got the mayor breathing down our necks,
and this guy's making us look like idiots.
129
00:08:00,314 --> 00:08:03,442
We need more time.
The mayor can't expect miracles.
130
00:08:03,525 --> 00:08:05,903
Well, he does. He made that very clear.
131
00:08:05,986 --> 00:08:10,616
Look, I'm trying to change this place.
Root out the bent cops and the graft.
132
00:08:10,699 --> 00:08:12,701
But I have to stick around
to make that happen.
133
00:08:12,784 --> 00:08:14,077
He's threatening your job?
134
00:08:14,161 --> 00:08:17,206
Not in so many words,
but I can read between the lines.
135
00:08:17,289 --> 00:08:20,042
We need to catch this Batman and fast,
136
00:08:20,125 --> 00:08:22,211
or I'm getting transferred out
to Marshall Island,
137
00:08:22,294 --> 00:08:24,963
and you go back to being treated
like the office coffee girl.
138
00:08:25,047 --> 00:08:27,758
It hasn't even been a week.
We can do this. I just...
139
00:08:27,841 --> 00:08:31,386
No. He's too smart for these tactics.
140
00:08:31,470 --> 00:08:34,806
[sighs] Renee, it's not working.
141
00:08:34,890 --> 00:08:37,059
We need to try something else.
142
00:08:37,893 --> 00:08:39,895
Okay, so he's too smart.
143
00:08:39,978 --> 00:08:43,106
Maybe we can use that,
get inside his head.
144
00:08:44,358 --> 00:08:46,920
[Dr. Quinzel] Well for starters,
he's kind of a shy boy, isn't he?
145
00:08:46,944 --> 00:08:49,112
The hit and run tactics, the mask.
146
00:08:49,196 --> 00:08:52,699
You've got to wonder,
what else is he hiding under that thing?
147
00:08:52,783 --> 00:08:56,870
Besides obvious issues with authority
and maybe a fetish or two.
148
00:08:56,954 --> 00:09:00,165
My old college professor, Dr. Crane,
would say...
149
00:09:00,249 --> 00:09:02,834
This Dr. Quinzel's interesting.
Where did you find her?
150
00:09:02,918 --> 00:09:06,922
Your daughter. They're friends.
She's one of Barbara's expert witnesses.
151
00:09:07,005 --> 00:09:09,633
- Ah. Of course she is.
- Yeah.
152
00:09:09,716 --> 00:09:13,887
Barb introduced us at our Christmas party,
and, uh, we kept in touch.
153
00:09:14,721 --> 00:09:18,809
So, why all this animosity for the police?
Where does that come from?
154
00:09:18,892 --> 00:09:22,437
Well, frankly,
I think the police are just in his way.
155
00:09:22,521 --> 00:09:26,108
His real targets are the criminals.
He's punishing them.
156
00:09:26,191 --> 00:09:28,527
That's why he's out there
night after night.
157
00:09:28,610 --> 00:09:30,237
That's his compulsion.
158
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:33,615
Hey, all this head shrink mumbo-jumbo
might mean something to you, doc,
159
00:09:33,699 --> 00:09:36,660
but can you just please tell us
how to catch this guy?
160
00:09:36,743 --> 00:09:37,911
Sure.
161
00:09:37,995 --> 00:09:40,956
Batman seems to have a thing
for all these costumed creeps
162
00:09:41,039 --> 00:09:44,418
that keep popping up, right?
Maybe they remind him of himself.
163
00:09:44,501 --> 00:09:47,713
Who knows?
In any case, that's how you catch him.
164
00:09:47,796 --> 00:09:50,799
By using different bait.
You need a weirdo.
165
00:09:50,882 --> 00:09:53,677
- Bingo.
- Huh? Hey, wait up.
166
00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,804
[officers chatter]
167
00:09:56,972 --> 00:10:00,267
[Flass] So, who do we got in holding?
Let's see here...
168
00:10:00,350 --> 00:10:02,811
Drunk and disorderly, no.
169
00:10:02,894 --> 00:10:04,730
Car thief, no.
170
00:10:04,813 --> 00:10:07,899
Grievous bodily harm. Oh, here we go.
171
00:10:07,983 --> 00:10:10,027
This is our man.
172
00:10:11,611 --> 00:10:13,989
Hey, Flass. You sure about this?
173
00:10:14,072 --> 00:10:17,409
You heard the lady doctor.
This is what gets to the Bat.
174
00:10:17,492 --> 00:10:20,579
Guys with weird names and bad habits.
175
00:10:20,662 --> 00:10:23,999
Okay, let's go, Firefly.
It's time to take a ride.
176
00:10:24,708 --> 00:10:27,294
Actually, it's Firebug.
177
00:10:27,377 --> 00:10:29,796
Firebug, right.
178
00:10:29,880 --> 00:10:32,507
Better grab his outfit from Evidence too.
179
00:10:39,348 --> 00:10:40,682
That's one of my clients.
180
00:10:40,766 --> 00:10:43,435
- What are you doing with him?
- None of your beeswax.
181
00:10:43,518 --> 00:10:46,605
We got orders to take him
to Arkham Asylum, Miss Gordon.
182
00:10:46,688 --> 00:10:49,816
- For a psych exam, I believe it was.
- I wasn't notified.
183
00:10:49,900 --> 00:10:52,736
Probably just an oversight,
you know, red tape.
184
00:10:52,819 --> 00:10:55,238
- Anyway...
- Well, be careful with that one.
185
00:10:55,322 --> 00:10:57,657
He's more dangerous than he looks.
186
00:10:57,741 --> 00:11:01,411
- Yeah, that's what we hear.
- [car starts]
187
00:11:05,624 --> 00:11:07,626
You know,
Barbie's actually meeting me here.
188
00:11:07,709 --> 00:11:08,877
We're going to Gino's.
189
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:12,506
Oh, you got a table at Gino's?
You must know somebody.
190
00:11:12,589 --> 00:11:16,093
Honestly,
I know too many somebodies, Commissioner.
191
00:11:16,176 --> 00:11:20,806
- Would you like to join us, Renee?
- I would, but I'm on the clock.
192
00:11:20,889 --> 00:11:23,266
- Maybe another time?
- I'm going to hold you to that.
193
00:11:23,350 --> 00:11:24,976
Oh, here she is.
194
00:11:25,060 --> 00:11:26,603
Dad, I think you have a problem.
195
00:11:26,686 --> 00:11:29,314
Did you give Bullock and Flass orders
to transfer a prisoner?
196
00:11:29,398 --> 00:11:31,149
No. What prisoner?
197
00:11:43,245 --> 00:11:44,955
Can't you feel it?
198
00:11:45,038 --> 00:11:48,875
All of those people out there
longing for the flames,
199
00:11:48,959 --> 00:11:51,253
for the truth of the fire to show...
200
00:11:51,336 --> 00:11:54,005
Hey, Firefly, shut it.
No one gives a crap.
201
00:11:54,089 --> 00:11:56,091
It's Firebug.
202
00:11:56,174 --> 00:11:59,886
You know, I tell you, Flass, I'd hate
to be a little guy like that in lockup.
203
00:11:59,970 --> 00:12:03,682
You'd need a real scary rep
if you want to survive in there.
204
00:12:03,765 --> 00:12:07,436
Yeah. A couple of arsons and
a homemade costume ain't gonna cut it.
205
00:12:07,519 --> 00:12:09,020
Did you see his suit?
206
00:12:10,689 --> 00:12:13,733
It's like long underwear,
but on the outside,
207
00:12:13,817 --> 00:12:15,944
and these big bug-eyed goggles.
208
00:12:16,027 --> 00:12:18,405
That uniform is fireproof.
209
00:12:18,488 --> 00:12:21,867
[chuckles] Yeah, I saw that.
Hey, you put it in the trunk, right?
210
00:12:21,950 --> 00:12:24,744
Yeah, it's back there
with his fuel tank dingus.
211
00:12:24,828 --> 00:12:27,080
Wait. Is the lock on that trunk
still busted?
212
00:12:27,164 --> 00:12:30,375
Dang it, you're right.
I keep forgetting to get that fixed.
213
00:12:30,459 --> 00:12:33,044
So you mean anyone
could get into that trunk,
214
00:12:33,128 --> 00:12:35,505
and run off with Firebug's special suit?
215
00:12:35,589 --> 00:12:38,467
Yeah, I guess. Ooh! You hear that?
216
00:12:38,550 --> 00:12:39,885
Sounds like engine trouble.
217
00:12:53,356 --> 00:12:55,025
[Bullock] What do you think? Radiator?
218
00:12:55,108 --> 00:12:57,319
[Flass] No, no,
it sounded like the fan belt.
219
00:13:01,114 --> 00:13:05,952
- Maybe we need to get a tow truck.
- Ah, we don't want to do that. The...
220
00:13:07,370 --> 00:13:10,373
All right.
He isn't completely dense after all.
221
00:13:14,628 --> 00:13:16,463
[air hissing]
222
00:13:17,839 --> 00:13:19,799
Okay. Make it look good.
223
00:13:19,883 --> 00:13:22,886
Oh, no. Hey, Flass, I can't...
224
00:13:22,969 --> 00:13:24,179
Just do it.
225
00:13:25,347 --> 00:13:26,348
[grunts]
226
00:13:27,933 --> 00:13:29,100
Again.
227
00:13:30,644 --> 00:13:33,063
- [punch lands]
- [grunting]
228
00:13:33,146 --> 00:13:36,816
- Flass? You okay?
- Yeah.
229
00:13:36,900 --> 00:13:38,652
Yeah, I'm fine.
230
00:13:38,735 --> 00:13:41,196
All right, here's what happened.
231
00:13:41,279 --> 00:13:43,823
Tire went flat, you got out to look at it.
232
00:13:43,907 --> 00:13:46,284
Somehow, Firebug got the better of me.
233
00:13:46,368 --> 00:13:48,662
Little bastard's stronger than he looks.
234
00:13:48,745 --> 00:13:51,164
And then he ran for it. Got it?
235
00:13:51,248 --> 00:13:53,083
You think this is going to work?
236
00:13:53,166 --> 00:13:56,336
Some costumed freak burning down
the Eastside Flats?
237
00:13:56,419 --> 00:13:58,505
You really think
this will draw out the Bat?
238
00:13:58,588 --> 00:14:01,550
If it doesn't,
then we'll try something else.
239
00:14:01,633 --> 00:14:03,468
[children laughing, shouting]
240
00:14:03,552 --> 00:14:06,221
[grunting, laughing]
241
00:14:06,721 --> 00:14:08,807
[suspenseful music playing]
242
00:14:17,315 --> 00:14:19,859
[children chattering]
243
00:14:21,903 --> 00:14:24,906
[chatter, laughter continues]
244
00:14:53,602 --> 00:14:56,062
Yes. Here we go.
245
00:15:14,623 --> 00:15:16,291
[gas hissing]
246
00:15:20,211 --> 00:15:21,588
[music continues]
247
00:15:43,318 --> 00:15:45,111
[tires screeching]
248
00:15:45,195 --> 00:15:46,237
[music continues]
249
00:15:46,321 --> 00:15:48,365
This is just like Flass and Bullock,
250
00:15:48,448 --> 00:15:50,992
doing whatever they think
they can get away with.
251
00:15:51,076 --> 00:15:53,370
Well, not this time. Damn it!
252
00:15:53,453 --> 00:15:55,121
Where are they?
253
00:15:56,373 --> 00:15:59,250
[Batman] There's nothing on
the police band about the Eastside Flats?
254
00:15:59,334 --> 00:16:02,212
[Alfred] No, not at this...
Oh, hang on.
255
00:16:02,295 --> 00:16:04,631
There's just been a report
of a man in a mask
256
00:16:04,714 --> 00:16:06,633
setting fire to one of the tenements.
257
00:16:06,716 --> 00:16:10,970
[indistinct shouting]
258
00:16:11,054 --> 00:16:14,849
[woman] Someone call the fire department!
Please, help!
259
00:16:18,478 --> 00:16:19,896
This is Detective Flass.
260
00:16:19,979 --> 00:16:22,607
I need everyone with a badge
to the Eastside Flats.
261
00:16:22,691 --> 00:16:26,778
We got a building on fire,
an escaped prisoner, and the Batman.
262
00:16:26,861 --> 00:16:31,032
I repeat, the Bat is on the scene.
Get here fast, people. Double time!
263
00:16:31,116 --> 00:16:32,784
[horn honking]
264
00:16:32,867 --> 00:16:36,496
Eastside Flats was on my old beat.
A fire there will be hell on earth.
265
00:16:36,579 --> 00:16:39,999
Last thing those people need is Flass and
Bullock turning it into a war zone too.
266
00:16:40,083 --> 00:16:41,960
This is Commissioner Gordon.
267
00:16:42,043 --> 00:16:44,629
No one makes a move until I get there.
268
00:16:44,713 --> 00:16:46,631
Is that understood?
269
00:16:46,715 --> 00:16:48,591
Okay, we're going to split up in there.
270
00:16:48,675 --> 00:16:52,011
We're looking for the Bat,
and the maniac who started this fire.
271
00:16:52,095 --> 00:16:53,930
Orders are to shoot on sight.
272
00:16:54,013 --> 00:16:57,142
All right, boys,
let's go show these freaks what for.
273
00:16:59,561 --> 00:17:01,396
[boy panting]
274
00:17:06,776 --> 00:17:07,944
[Batman] Stop.
275
00:17:21,958 --> 00:17:24,753
[grunting]
276
00:17:28,256 --> 00:17:31,801
Come on. I'm O'Brian from the Gazette.
You gotta let me through.
277
00:17:31,885 --> 00:17:33,470
I don't gotta do nothing, pal.
278
00:17:33,553 --> 00:17:35,263
[Gordon] Everyone, listen up!
279
00:17:37,432 --> 00:17:39,684
We need to move the civilians back.
280
00:17:39,768 --> 00:17:42,437
This whole place could go up
like a tinderbox at any moment.
281
00:17:42,520 --> 00:17:44,063
Where are Flass and Bullock?
282
00:17:44,147 --> 00:17:46,357
They took an armored squad in
a few minutes ago, sir.
283
00:17:46,441 --> 00:17:48,985
- No one else goes in. Is that clear?
- Yes, sir.
284
00:17:51,196 --> 00:17:52,906
What are you doing? You just said...
285
00:17:52,989 --> 00:17:55,992
I won't have good cops dying in there
because of those two.
286
00:18:07,545 --> 00:18:09,297
Come on. There's another way.
287
00:18:09,380 --> 00:18:12,300
[coughing]
288
00:18:12,383 --> 00:18:15,887
Shelly says the Bat was spotted
on the fifth floor. Let's move.
289
00:18:15,970 --> 00:18:18,223
Hang on. Look, there!
290
00:18:20,975 --> 00:18:24,604
- Damn. I was sure I...
- Come on. [coughs]
291
00:18:24,687 --> 00:18:25,772
He ain't here.
292
00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:31,986
[loud creaking]
293
00:18:36,032 --> 00:18:38,451
[man] Help! Help! Please!
294
00:18:38,535 --> 00:18:41,412
Come on, children. Stay close to Mother.
295
00:18:46,125 --> 00:18:47,168
[gunfire]
296
00:18:49,337 --> 00:18:50,463
[grunting]
297
00:18:52,799 --> 00:18:54,342
Oh!
298
00:18:54,425 --> 00:18:56,803
That way. Go!
299
00:19:02,392 --> 00:19:03,810
Take Mike and Jim...
300
00:19:07,897 --> 00:19:10,608
Well, holy crap.
301
00:19:16,364 --> 00:19:19,200
- Can you stand?
- I think. [coughs]
302
00:19:19,284 --> 00:19:21,369
Yeah. [coughs]
303
00:19:21,452 --> 00:19:22,787
Where are Flass and Bullock?
304
00:19:22,871 --> 00:19:25,623
I don't know. [coughs] We split up.
305
00:19:25,707 --> 00:19:29,252
[Corrigan] Commissioner, we saw Batman.
He's moving towards the top floors.
306
00:19:29,335 --> 00:19:30,712
You need to get them out, Renee.
307
00:19:30,795 --> 00:19:32,398
- And look for more on the way down.
- But...
308
00:19:32,422 --> 00:19:33,882
That's an order. Go.
309
00:19:41,389 --> 00:19:42,807
Okay. Come on, you two.
310
00:19:46,060 --> 00:19:48,479
[eerie child choir vocalizing]
311
00:19:53,902 --> 00:19:56,237
[hissing, clicking]
312
00:19:59,032 --> 00:20:01,618
[Flass] Well, your lawyer was right.
313
00:20:01,701 --> 00:20:04,203
You are more dangerous than you look.
314
00:20:04,954 --> 00:20:09,626
Yes, but I used all my fuel now,
so I guess I give up.
315
00:20:10,793 --> 00:20:13,671
He'll talk. About his escape.
316
00:20:16,758 --> 00:20:18,301
[gunshots]
317
00:20:23,932 --> 00:20:25,308
- [crashing]
- [crowd gasping]
318
00:20:25,391 --> 00:20:26,392
[woman] Oh, my God!
319
00:20:41,282 --> 00:20:42,283
[Gordon] Don't move!
320
00:20:46,579 --> 00:20:48,122
There's another one inside.
321
00:20:52,543 --> 00:20:54,879
- [sobbing]
- [coughs]
322
00:20:55,880 --> 00:20:57,674
It's okay, son. I got you.
323
00:21:05,223 --> 00:21:08,559
- I can take him down outside.
- No. Those men will shoot at you.
324
00:21:08,643 --> 00:21:12,271
They might not see the kids.
Come on. I know these buildings.
325
00:21:12,355 --> 00:21:13,773
This used to be my beat.
326
00:21:15,900 --> 00:21:18,903
- It goes to the laundry room.
- What's at the bottom?
327
00:21:20,363 --> 00:21:22,448
- I guess we'll find out.
- Guess we will.
328
00:21:29,914 --> 00:21:31,416
It's safe.
329
00:21:36,087 --> 00:21:38,965
Okay. Come on, kids. What are you...
330
00:21:40,466 --> 00:21:42,844
All right, everyone stay close.
331
00:21:49,976 --> 00:21:53,187
Oh, thank God.
I thought you were still in there.
332
00:21:53,271 --> 00:21:55,189
I found a shortcut.
333
00:21:56,941 --> 00:22:01,279
Hey, Commish, you see the Batman in there?
Heard he was chasing that Firebug guy.
334
00:22:01,821 --> 00:22:03,990
No, I didn't.
335
00:22:21,215 --> 00:22:25,053
[Gordon] Let me be clear.
I know exactly what you did.
336
00:22:25,136 --> 00:22:29,182
You put fellow officers and innocent
civilians in harm's way on purpose,
337
00:22:29,265 --> 00:22:31,392
and I'm gonna have your badges for this.
338
00:22:31,476 --> 00:22:32,727
[laughs]
339
00:22:32,810 --> 00:22:34,479
There something funny here, Bullock?
340
00:22:35,229 --> 00:22:37,148
Guess you didn't see the papers.
341
00:22:40,943 --> 00:22:42,945
[phone rings]
342
00:22:44,947 --> 00:22:46,741
Gordon, it's Mayor Jessop.
343
00:22:46,824 --> 00:22:49,827
Think it's time we made some changes
to this taskforce.
344
00:22:49,911 --> 00:22:52,789
These two hero cops from the papers,
Flass and Bullock,
345
00:22:52,872 --> 00:22:54,874
I want them in charge from now on.
346
00:22:54,957 --> 00:22:58,878
But listen, I saw you did some good
out there too, Jim. Saved some kids.
347
00:22:58,961 --> 00:23:01,380
So we're going to keep you around for now.
348
00:23:01,464 --> 00:23:04,967
Just make sure my guys have whatever
they need and stay out of their way.
349
00:23:05,051 --> 00:23:08,096
- Understand me?
- Yes, sir, Mr. Mayor.
350
00:23:10,556 --> 00:23:14,477
Let me take a wild guess.
Was that about us?
351
00:23:36,666 --> 00:23:40,128
It's okay, kiddo. I'm not licked yet.
352
00:23:49,512 --> 00:23:52,682
