00:00:03,922 --> 00:00:07,050
I thank you, Ms. Gordon.
I can't believe it.
3
00:00:07,050 --> 00:00:08,802
I'm a free man because of you.
4
00:00:08,802 --> 00:00:11,597
You're a free man
because you deserve to be.
5
00:00:11,597 --> 00:00:14,057
We're more than the bad choices we make.
6
00:00:14,725 --> 00:00:16,018
Remember that.
7
00:00:21,732 --> 00:00:25,068
Another day, another criminal
let off on a technicality.
8
00:00:25,068 --> 00:00:28,238
- We're doing this again.
- He did the crime, Barb.
9
00:00:28,238 --> 00:00:32,075
Jesus, Dad, You're acting like you've
never heard of mitigating circumstances.
10
00:00:32,075 --> 00:00:35,078
- Actions aren't the only thing...
- Actions are everything.
11
00:00:35,078 --> 00:00:38,373
...to consider.
And prison can't always be the default.
12
00:00:38,373 --> 00:00:42,127
Maybe if the cops had done their job
instead of trying to pin my client
13
00:00:42,127 --> 00:00:44,671
- with such flimsy evidence.
- Watch it, Barbara.
14
00:00:44,671 --> 00:00:46,757
They're good cops. I know these two.
15
00:00:46,757 --> 00:00:48,592
Sure, maybe they made some mistakes.
16
00:00:48,592 --> 00:00:51,970
Oh, so cops can make mistakes,
but citizens can't.
17
00:00:51,970 --> 00:00:54,431
- You're being naive.
- And you're a cynic.
18
00:00:54,431 --> 00:00:59,019
Look, inside here, people know
the difference between right and wrong.
19
00:00:59,019 --> 00:01:02,940
They just do, so when they choose wrong,
they should answer for it.
20
00:01:02,940 --> 00:01:06,276
- You know it's not that simple, Dad.
- Well, it should be.
21
00:01:06,276 --> 00:01:07,861
Commissioner!
22
00:01:07,861 --> 00:01:09,988
Sir, you need to come with us.
We just got a tip that--
23
00:01:09,988 --> 00:01:11,573
Hey, Gordon!
24
00:01:11,573 --> 00:01:13,951
- Dad!
- [gunshot]

00:01:21,750 --> 00:01:24,795
- Oh, thank God.
- What the hell is going on?
27
00:01:24,795 --> 00:01:26,630
We've got a problem, sir.

00:01:29,550 --> 00:01:31,969
[theme music playing]
29
00:02:03,000 --> 00:02:04,918
[Gordon] So, who exactly is the shooter?
30
00:02:04,918 --> 00:02:08,755
Floyd Lawton. He's a local torpedo.
Works contract jobs.
31
00:02:08,755 --> 00:02:11,550
- Do we know who hired him?
- No. He's still in surgery.
32
00:02:11,550 --> 00:02:13,385
Might be a while
before we can question him.
33
00:02:13,385 --> 00:02:16,346
All we know is the word went out
on the streets last night.
34
00:02:16,346 --> 00:02:18,265
There's a hit out on Gordon.
35
00:02:18,265 --> 00:02:20,726
One of our snitches called this morning
with the tip.
36
00:02:20,726 --> 00:02:23,395
A hit on the police commissioner?
37
00:02:23,395 --> 00:02:26,106
- Someone's got a lot of nerve.
- And money.
38
00:02:26,106 --> 00:02:27,190
We'll start there.
39
00:02:27,190 --> 00:02:30,027
Look for any enemies you've made
who have those kind of resources.
40
00:02:30,027 --> 00:02:32,529
You can dig through the files
all you want, Montoya.
41
00:02:32,529 --> 00:02:35,908
But I say we get out on the streets,
and raise some hell.
42
00:02:35,908 --> 00:02:40,329
A full blitz with the task force.
We can roust the whole frigging east end.
43
00:02:40,329 --> 00:02:43,040
Drag them all in here, bust some skulls.
44
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:45,751
Bullock's right. We're the damn police.
45
00:02:45,751 --> 00:02:48,962
We can't have folks out there
thinking it's okay to shoot at us.
46
00:02:48,962 --> 00:02:50,464
No. No task force.
47
00:02:50,464 --> 00:02:53,008
I'm not about to turn Gotham Streets
into a war zone.
48
00:02:53,008 --> 00:02:55,385
Work the case, but work it smart.
49
00:02:56,094 --> 00:02:57,512
Huh.
50
00:03:01,183 --> 00:03:03,894
So, obviously,
we're getting you a protection detail.
51
00:03:03,894 --> 00:03:05,228
You can take care of that, Renee.
52
00:03:05,228 --> 00:03:08,857
Stop. We got the guy, Barbara.
I don't need any kind of...
53
00:03:08,857 --> 00:03:10,442
There's a hit on you, Dad.
54
00:03:10,442 --> 00:03:13,070
You really think
they're only sending one guy?
55
00:03:13,070 --> 00:03:15,948
[sighs] Could you please
tell my daughter...
56
00:03:15,948 --> 00:03:18,909
She's right, and I think a safe house
is a good call, too.
57
00:03:18,909 --> 00:03:21,328
Just until we know
what we're really dealing with here.
58
00:03:21,328 --> 00:03:22,913
- Who put the target on you?
- Renee.
59
00:03:22,913 --> 00:03:25,374
- What if it's Boss Thorne?
- Why would it be Thorne?
60
00:03:25,374 --> 00:03:27,834
I don't know. Maybe he's trying
to influence public opinion
61
00:03:27,834 --> 00:03:29,670
before the election, who knows?
62
00:03:29,670 --> 00:03:30,837
It's not Thorne.
63
00:03:30,837 --> 00:03:35,175
And, regardless, I refuse to be run off
like some sort of scared rabbit.
64
00:03:35,175 --> 00:03:38,804
Besides, if I leave, there's no telling
what Flass and Bullock will get up to.
65
00:03:38,804 --> 00:03:40,847
No. I'm staying right here.

Barb. Hey, slow down a sec.

00:03:50,941 --> 00:03:53,485
Can you believe him?
How stubborn can one man be?
69
00:03:53,485 --> 00:03:56,488
- And selfish, like it only affects him.
- Barbara.
70
00:03:58,365 --> 00:04:01,410
I will do everything I can
to protect your father.
71
00:04:01,410 --> 00:04:04,287
No one's getting to him
unless they go through me first.
72
00:04:05,038 --> 00:04:07,290
- All right?
- Thank you.
73
00:04:07,290 --> 00:04:10,293
If anything happens, call me at my office.
74
00:04:10,293 --> 00:04:11,712
You got it.

Can you not do that, just appear?

The hit on your father,
I've been looking into it.

- What does that mean?
- [Batman] I've been asking questions.

[gagging] Okay, I'll talk! I'll talk!
82
00:04:44,953 --> 00:04:47,539
The order came from
inside Black Gate Prison.
83
00:04:47,539 --> 00:04:51,668
It's an open hit, meaning whoever
gets the job done, collects.
84
00:04:51,668 --> 00:04:53,336
Your father is still a target.
85

Black Gate Prison?
So this is personal for someone?
86
00:04:57,090 --> 00:05:00,135
The commissioner's been
on the force for over 30 years.
87
00:05:00,135 --> 00:05:02,637
It'll be a long list of suspects.

[gagging] It's this guy, Muller.
105
00:05:57,150 --> 00:06:00,112
They got him locked up in solitary,
so he needed a go-between.

Listen, there's a, a complication.

After the first guy botched the job,
Muller doubled the price.

Word is, there's a whole crew of pros
coming in from out of town,

Renee's right. Maybe we should just
find some place to hunker down,
171
00:11:51,296 --> 00:11:55,675
- patch up Driver and wait out the night.
- And where do you suggest we do that?
172
00:11:55,675 --> 00:11:57,218
We're in the boonies out here.
173
00:12:18,865 --> 00:12:21,576
Well, it's as hidden as it's gonna be.
174
00:12:21,576 --> 00:12:23,828
Good enough. Let's move.
175
00:12:36,007 --> 00:12:39,260
Anyone else freezing, or is it just me?
176
00:12:39,260 --> 00:12:42,305
We need to find the model home.
They always make that first.
177
00:12:42,305 --> 00:12:47,060
- Hey, maybe it'll have a fireplace, kid.
- Yeah, I hope so.
178
00:12:47,936 --> 00:12:50,230
[dramatic music playing]
179
00:12:52,690 --> 00:12:56,402
Those morons, they were only
supposed to follow, not engage.
180
00:12:57,028 --> 00:12:59,197
Now, how the hell
are we supposed to find them?
181
00:13:06,412 --> 00:13:08,998
Blip, blip, blip.
182
00:13:08,998 --> 00:13:10,875
[henchman] What'd you say, boss?
183
00:13:12,252 --> 00:13:15,004
Blip, blip, blip.
184
00:13:17,257 --> 00:13:18,675
Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding.
185
00:13:18,675 --> 00:13:21,970
Yeah, we have a winner. Good work, boss.
186
00:13:28,977 --> 00:13:30,895
[dispatcher on police radio]
Responding to domestic disturbance
187
00:13:30,895 --> 00:13:33,606
at Wheeler and Nicholson.
Officers are at the scene.
188
00:13:33,606 --> 00:13:36,067
Attention all units, shots reported.
189
00:13:36,067 --> 00:13:40,363
Vehicle collision, possible officer down
at Dozier Road on Route 2.
190
00:13:40,363 --> 00:13:43,032
[policeman on radio] Dozier Road.
Are you sure about that, Dispatch?
191
00:13:43,032 --> 00:13:45,243
We don't have any officers
in that area tonight.
192
00:13:45,243 --> 00:13:47,036
[tires skid]
193
00:13:48,329 --> 00:13:50,957
[dramatic music playing]
194
00:13:58,965 --> 00:14:02,343
Really, sir, you don't
have to worry about me, I'm...
195
00:14:02,343 --> 00:14:04,971
[groans]
196
00:14:04,971 --> 00:14:09,183
You've lost too much blood, son.
Just sit tight for me, okay?
197
00:14:09,183 --> 00:14:12,478
If you say so, commish... [groans]
198
00:14:12,478 --> 00:14:15,898
This is insane.
We can't even call for backup
199
00:14:15,898 --> 00:14:18,526
because you don't know who to trust
among your own people.
200
00:14:18,526 --> 00:14:20,653
And you wonder why I don't believe
in the system.
201
00:14:20,653 --> 00:14:24,282
That's enough.
I'm gonna check the back windows again.
202
00:14:30,246 --> 00:14:34,250
I can't believe this place.
Doesn't even feel like the real Gotham.
203
00:14:34,250 --> 00:14:36,502
No, it doesn't.
204
00:14:36,502 --> 00:14:41,507
Reminds me of where I grew up, actually.
It was so peaceful.
205
00:14:41,507 --> 00:14:45,595
Wait. Where did you grow up again?
Snob Hill? Richman Point?
206
00:14:45,595 --> 00:14:47,972
Ellsworth Hills. You know that.
207
00:14:47,972 --> 00:14:51,434
[scoffs] Typical.
Richies can't stomach the real Gotham.
208
00:14:51,434 --> 00:14:53,936
So, they just leave
instead of making the city better.
209
00:14:53,936 --> 00:14:56,439
Go to the suburbs where it looks nice.
210
00:14:56,439 --> 00:14:59,609
That's a little one sided.
We were just across the river.
211
00:14:59,609 --> 00:15:03,446
We didn't leave, and we weren't rich.
It was my grandfather's house.
212
00:15:03,446 --> 00:15:06,866
Okay, sure.
But still, it's not really the city.
213
00:15:06,866 --> 00:15:09,744
Well, I didn't miss it. Gotham is...
214
00:15:09,744 --> 00:15:12,872
- Some things are just...
- [Gordon] Beyond help?
215
00:15:14,457 --> 00:15:16,125
I didn't say that.
216
00:15:21,839 --> 00:15:24,926
Hey, how about I go
put on some coffee, huh?
217
00:15:24,926 --> 00:15:26,260
Calm everyone's nerves.
218
00:15:26,260 --> 00:15:29,722
It's a model home, Corrigan.
[scoffs] There's no actual food here.
219
00:15:29,722 --> 00:15:31,933
- There's gotta be something.
- [gunshot]
220
00:15:32,809 --> 00:15:34,018
Crap.
221
00:15:34,644 --> 00:15:36,562
[dramatic music playing]
222
00:15:40,692 --> 00:15:41,984
Bang.
223
00:15:47,365 --> 00:15:49,492
- You got your .32?
- Damn right.
224
00:15:49,492 --> 00:15:53,037
- Then, you two cover the back.
- [gunfire]
225
00:15:55,998 --> 00:15:58,000

[suspenseful music continues]
229
00:16:21,315 --> 00:16:22,692
Come on.
230
00:16:26,154 --> 00:16:27,780
- How many?
- I counted seven,
231
00:16:27,780 --> 00:16:29,449
but they were moving, could be more.
232
00:16:31,325 --> 00:16:32,326
Ten o'clock.

[Onomatopoeia] Swish.

00:17:48,861 --> 00:17:49,946
Crack!
243
00:17:54,367 --> 00:17:55,409
Stomp!
244
00:17:57,245 --> 00:18:00,206
Whoosh! Bim, bam, bum!

Pow.
250
00:19:12,111 --> 00:19:15,323
This is the end of it.
The contract's been canceled.
251
00:19:15,323 --> 00:19:17,325
- No one else is coming.
- Good.
252
00:19:17,325 --> 00:19:22,204
- Now everyone can stop worrying about me.
- Commissioner, you weren't the target.
253
00:19:22,204 --> 00:19:23,456
What?
254
00:19:26,167 --> 00:19:28,628
- Whew. Tough son of a...
- [gun cocks]
255
00:19:29,795 --> 00:19:33,090
Sorry, kid. The hit was never on your dad.
256
00:19:33,090 --> 00:19:35,801
You got a real unhappy
former client up in Black Gate.
257
00:19:35,801 --> 00:19:37,386
I...
258
00:19:37,386 --> 00:19:41,724
Look, I don't want to,
but it's just so much money.
259
00:19:43,768 --> 00:19:47,396
Come on, Corrigan. You don't
honestly think you'll get away with this?
260
00:19:47,396 --> 00:19:49,357
Sure, I will. See?
261
00:19:49,357 --> 00:19:51,776
Turns out this guy here
got a lucky shot off
262
00:19:51,776 --> 00:19:54,695
right before I could put two in his chest.
263
00:19:59,450 --> 00:20:01,327

Yeah.

Look, I took the hit off you.
270
00:21:11,480 --> 00:21:15,526
So, uh, tell...
You tell your friend that.
271
00:21:15,526 --> 00:21:18,529
All right?
That I did what he said.
272
00:21:23,409 --> 00:21:27,329
I did my job for you.
I got you the best deal possible.
273
00:21:27,329 --> 00:21:29,498
And you tried to have me killed.
274
00:21:29,498 --> 00:21:33,335
This was the best deal? This place?
275
00:21:34,211 --> 00:21:36,380
Do you know what it's like in here?
276
00:21:36,380 --> 00:21:39,508
I may have done some bad stuff,
but I'm not like them.
277
00:21:39,508 --> 00:21:42,094
I just made some mistakes. You...
278
00:21:42,803 --> 00:21:46,223
You could've done better for me.
I don't deserve to be here.
279
00:21:49,310 --> 00:21:52,021
Actually, I think you do.
