You've been coming here for three months, Helena. You've barely said a word. Talk therapy works better when you actually speak.
Court sent me here for anger management, right? Observe the managing. I'm cured. You're a genius, Harleen.
You sideswiped two cars, flattened a stop sign, crushed a fire hydrant...
I was in a hurry.
...Knocked out a security guard...
I shoved him to get him out of the way, barely even touched the guy.
And why were you in such a hurry?
I don't know, I had things to do.
I understand that whatever it was seemed urgent to you-
No, you DON'T understand. You don't know me. You don't know anything about me. Let's just run the clock out here and call it good, Harleen.
I do know that on this day, seven years ago, you watched your mother die. And a few months later, Barbara Gordon became your legal guardian. There's no mention of your father.
Because at the time, I didn't know who he was.
But you do now?
...Bruce Wayne is my father.
[Suprised] Your father... is one of the wealthiest men in the country, and you move in with a schoolteacher?
Wasn't exactly Father Knows Best - He didn't know he HAD a kid. Clueless is a RADICAL understatement.
Sounds like your relationship with your father is conflicted.
[Snorts] What relationship? He didn't raise me, my mom did. I miss her. She... She was funny, crazy, and dangerous... and in that one moment, she was gone. That's when everything changed. I changed.
Into what?
Into someone maybe I wasn't meant to be.
