Gordon:Well that may not be a bad thing... With the phone call I received while he was in custody, along with witnessing two murders. He looks as innocent as ever.

Ramirez:Yeah....

Gordon gives the Doctor a ice bag.

Gordon:Let's go Ramirez..... I want to fi...

Ramirez: Im on it Sir.... I have men looking for her, as we speak. By the way there were traces of tire marks at the electronics store. Just like Batman said. Sir I know you dont want to hear this... But im taking you home..... We cant do anything more until tomorrow, and besides, with rest. You'll be able to cope better.

Ramirez helps Gordon to his feet. Tetch Is Shown tagging the last palate. He then walks out of the truck trailer. Shut's the door. Then walk's over to his clip Board...... The Camera follows him out the door. He open the Truck door, get's inside, shuts the door, and starts the engine. He then grabs his Cb, and communicates with his dispatcher. At this time a car is shown pulling up behind a old Bookstore. The Car stops, Joker get's out, walks around the car, and helps Quinn out, who is red faced and teary eyed, but smirking some what. With traces of his make up on her face. They Both walk up to the back door. Joker knocks three times. A man comes to the door, answers and let's them in, they follow him and enter the main room, where a bunch of men are all sitting. The man with the suit from the Office supply store greets them.

Riddler: Where is Sam?

Joker:That's easy I got the address on a peice of paper, which I found on Sams, dead Body.

 

Riddler:I see....Dreamers have Dreams, as a dreamer will do, a dreamed a dream, I saw her next to you!

Joker Takes out his gun, and pulls back the hammer.

Riddler:OHHHH OWW!!!! HeH! Would you really shoot me, with all my protectors?

One of his men walk over, joker shoots him in the stomach, he falls to the ground! Riddler's eyes widen, as Joker

pulls the hammer back again and points it at Riddler.

Joker:Does that answer your question....Look it's me and her, but you cross me man, and it will only be me and her! Your man want die, although hes going to have a nasty scare, better get him medical help soon... Before the wound festers...

Joker throws a couple of Bottles to the side. As he mixes a couple of drinks......

Joker: Gordon????

Riddler:Yes!

Joker looks at his wrist....

Joker: No...Wait.... Hes not there yet....We'll call in a hour...Hows the shipments?

Joker walks over to Quinn handing her a drink.... She tries not to take it...He makes her, then tells her to drink.

Riddler: Fine, they aren't on to us....I have some guys taking another store tonight. With things being shaken up. it's the perfect time.

Joker:Good!

This time Tetch is shown leaving his delivery, then officers are shown working late, at the office, talking. One of them is Soto.

Soto:Briggs, I cant believe that happened, I was putty in his hands.....

Briggs:Yeah.... Do you want some more food....

Soto:Sure...

Gordon is shown getting out of the police car. He waves at Ramirez, he staggers up his stairs. Reaching into his pocket for his key's he opens the door, and walk's inside. When doing so, he shut's it then his phone ring's. Gordon answers...

Voice: Magical mischief, by the midnight! Is it a wrong, to be behind?

Gordon:Excuse me?

Gordon's wife is shown, standing in the doorway of their bedroom. with a concerned look about her.

Voice: Goodbye!

Gordon: Wait....Hello....HELLO?????

 

His wife walk's over and raps her arms around him. Her name is barbara.

barbara:Hey...Ive been worried sick! What happened to your head, who was that, are you ok??

Gordon: Get a grip! Yes im fine... Joker is out... Whoever that was didnt say... Hold on barbara, I need a pen and pad...

Gordon walk's into the other room searching for a pen and pad and begins to write down what the man said.

I night worker at a local Museum is working the late shift, when he hears a knock at the front door. He get's up, walks to the front. The Riddler is standing in front with Joker, Quinn, and some men. The man smiles, then opens the door to let them in. Riddler utters something at the man.

Riddler:Take off your hoster, and throw it on the floor.

The officer smiles, and does so willingly. Joker laughs.
