Mad City: Red Queen

Jervis has Alice hanging upside down. He is draining the last drops of blood from her thawed out body. Poor Alice. Not nice Jervis. "Bravo Alice your best work yet." Tetch said. Crazy man.

Penguin on his way to get Samantha has called into the library. Pengie what are you up to? He talks with Isabella. Wants a book on the founding Fathers. She of course gets it for him. "It is so nice to see someone who is being nice to Edward. He has lost a lot of confidence since he got out of Arkum." Penguin said. Oh Pengie has the green eyed monster come to bite ya on the ass. "Arkum? Don't they put you in there for ... Murder?" Isabella asked. "Why yes. It was in all the papers." Penguin said. "I don't read the papers." Isabella said. "It is uncanny how much you look like her." Penguin said with a smile. Isabella smiled back at him. Watch out girl, he can get nasty. "Well then thank you for the book." Penguin said leaving a doe eyed Isabella re thinking her life.

Jim is lurking around the hospital. Hoping Valarie will talk to him again. He sees Tetch. Nice frock coat Tetch. I like it. Of course now Jim has seen him he follows. "The Tea Party was part one Jim. I have a lot more installed for you, and for Gotham." Tetch said as Jim turned he blew some of the Red Queen in Jim's face. Cool Jim's going to take a trip!

Jade is at the club with Barbara, and Samantha. "Why did you tell them where we live?" Jade asked Barbara. "Because they said they were family." Barbara said sipping her drink. "Well don't tell em any more about us please." Jade said. "She doesn't have to. We know all we need to know. Now we need to find Joe and Taylor." Delia said. "Well I aint telling you where they are." JAde said. "Hello is Miss Kean ready. Mr Penguin is waiting in the car for her." The driver said. "I'm ready. Bye Mummy." Samantha said she was dressed in a long deep purple number. "Ya look great. Enjoy." Jade called as she left. "Yes bye. So are the papers all in order?" Barbara asked. "Yes. Sorry it took so long." Delia said. "Yes we had some distractions." Maggie said. "Well they had better be good. There has been a lot of work in this. I would not do it again. It is only because Jade is related." Barbara said. "I aint related to them. I am related to Selina." Jade said. "And I hear soon to be with the Wayne boys?" Barbara said with a laugh. "Aunty Barbara!" Jade said. "Aunty?" Maggie asked. "Well you were not here." Jade said. "Jade, come on we are going to be late." Selina said. "Enjoy your date." Barbara said laughing again. "Oh we will." Jade said with a giggle.

Penguin is at the founders dinner. Samantha is talking to the cardinal from the big church in Gotham. Penguin is trying to circle the room. Jervis Tetch bumps into him. "Sorry." he mumbled to Penguin. "Watch where you are going. Cretin." Penguin said glaring at him. Watch him Pengie he is insane! Oh so are you. Well ya should join forces.... Sorry.

Jim is in an elevator, one of the older ones. Barbara is there. She is in her bus boy uniform. Pretty cool Barbara. See we knew he loved ya best. "Hi Buttercup." Barbara said to a confused Jim. He tries to get out of the elevator. He gets zapped. Ha ha ha. Jim gets off, he is at the GCPD. Bruce and Tony are talking to him with face masks on. Bad trip huh Jim? Then he is back in his army days. Penguin is with him in the trenches. Then his is back at the GCPD. Really freaky Jim!

Harvey and Barnes are integrating the man who gives his pass to Jervis. Harvey is being Bad Cop, then Barnes takes over. "I thought I was the bad cop?" Harvey said. I guess not today Harvey. They get what they want out of him. They work out Jervis is at the Founders dinner..

Tetch is putting a drop of Alice's blood in each glass of wine. Crafty bugger. Get the big guns first.

Barbara is giving Jim mouth to mouth. She is in a skimpy nurses costume. "What are you doing?" He asked her. "What you want me to do." Barbara said. "Why are you dressed like that?" Jim asked. "It's your trip Jim. You did it." Barbara said. She is now in a nun's habit! Really Jim? "Next stop." Barbara said. Jim gets off, he has come home to Lee ant two kids. One boy, one Girl. Awe aint that sweet? Is that what ya really want Jim? In the middle of his wonderful dinner the lights dim. Jim is back in the elevator. He wants to go back. "Really that was not you was it Jim. P.I. With two kids?" Barbara asked with a smile.

Bruce and Tony have set the table they are waiting. Bruce is fuming. Alfred comes in. "Looks like a no show boys." Alfred said. "So do you always bring ya butler on dates?" Selina asked. "Your late Selina." Bruce said. "What's the matter Bruce, no one ever stood you up before?" Jade asked with a giggle. "You look very nice tonight Mara." Tony said with a smile and a hug. "Thanks Tones, you seem to scrub up well too." Jade said giggling. Bruce and Selina are still at a standoff. "Tony and I made all this for you." Bruce said. "Look if we are going to do this, whatever this is. It is going to take time. It is still strange to me." Selina said. "As it is for me Selina." Bruce said. The room fell silent. "So now we have cleared that up. Lets eat." Jade said. "I cooked Pot roast for dinner." Tony said. "I cooked Mud cake." Bruce said. "Bring on the cake." Selina said with a smile at him.

Penguin is in the corner of the room, he has been bailed up by none other than Kathryn! What is she doing here? "Mr Cobblepot, We have been watching you for some time." She said. Stay away from her Pengie We think she is dangerous! "Really? Well you have me at a disadvantage. What is your name?" Pengie asked with a smile. "Kathryn." She said. "Just Kathryn?" Pengie asked. "Yes. Do enjoy." She said before disappearing. "Samantha did you see that woman I was talking to?" Penguin asked. "No sorry. Why?" She replied. "Nothing." Penguin said as he sat.

Tetch enters. "Hello the hearts of Gotham." He said to them. He prattles on about his beloved sister. "Now drink." he said to them. "What if we don't?" Penguin asked standing up for himself. "Drink or die." Jervis said holding a gun to Penguin. Penguin picks up his glass. "Glasses down!" Harvey shouts at them. He and Barnes rush in to take Tetch and The Tweeds down. Barnes is on Tetch. He is getting angry. "Is that my dear sister I see?" Tetch asked laughing into Barnes face. What is Barnes going to do now? And what about Tetch, they finally have him! What next???

Barbara dressed in gold. Glass of gin in hand. "Last stop Jim." She said to him. She pulls a key out of her mouth and gives it to him. He gets off the elevator. He is in the middle of the street. There is a car and a man standing by it. "Dad?" Jim asked. Yep it is. Jim talks to him. He tells Jim how he coped all those years ago.

Dr Mario is slapping jim around. The Nurse found the bottle of Red Queen beside him. Mario knows what it is. He calls for some medicine. Hang in there Jim, Dr Mario is going to save ya.

But Jim is in the car with his Dad. They are talking and laughing. Dad tells Jim he is proud of him. Right before Jim wakes up to see. Mario! "Oh good you are awake. Any longer and you would have been dead." He said before walking away from him. Now that is a bad trip Jim.

Edward is at Pengie's place explaining to Isabella about Kristen. "I know." She said. "And you came anyway. That is not logical." He said. "Love is not logical." Isabella said going to kiss him. "You would never believe.... Oh sorry." Penguin said. "Oswald." Ed said. "I'm sorry I.. I am tired. I think I will go to bed." he said leaving them alone. Isabella is not impressed did you see the look? Wonder who will win Ed, her or Penguin??

Kathryn is talking to someone about Penguin. "Once a criminal, always a criminal." She said to him. "Well we will have to keep an eye on him then." The mystery man said.

Jim is in with Barnes. He wants to come back to the force. On ya Jim. Now the criminals of Gotham will be shivering in their boots again! Ha ha ha.

"Coffee in the den?" Bruce asked. "I don't drink coffee." Selina said. "Hot chocolate then?" Tony asked. "Ya don't have to tempt me twice." Jade said with a giggle. Bruce and Tony make the drinks. The girls go to the den. "It's different aint it?" Jade said to Selina. "Yes it is." Selina said. How do ya feel about him?" Jade asked. She didn't have to but she did anyway. "I don't know, strange. Like I know when he is there. Even if I can't see him." Selina said. "I know how ya feel. I feel Tony's mood even when he is not with me."Jade said. They sat for a few moments. Sena, do ya feel like ya have found ya home when ya look at him?" Jade asked. Selina smiled. "Here's your drinks ladies. Come Jade I think the view from the balcony is very nice this time of night." Tony said escorting her out the french doors. Selina heard Jade giggle. She smiled at Bruce. He smiled back. Electricity filled the air. He moved over to where she was sitting. "It feels different now." Bruce said to her. "As to when?" She asked smiling at him. "When we lived together on the streets." Bruce said. Selina lowered her eyes. Bruce leaned in to her to kiss her. She kissed him back! Woo Hoo, next stop The Midtown Bridge! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
