[Nygma has a gun on Gordon]
How did this happen to you? How did you become this?
You dummy. This is who I am. It was just finally admitting the truth to myself. Well, that and murdering some people.
I don't believe that.
You don't believe it? Why, Jim? Because it would make you incompetent to know I was under your nose the whole time? Or you don't want to admit there's a monster in all of us - because you of all people should know that! That's what made it so easy to frame you.
I was your friend.
Were you? Were you my friend, Jim? Or did you just pity me? "Oh, poor weird little Ed with his little silly word play and his riddles."
Completely insane.
Yeah, it's probably easier for you to think that. How about one last riddle for old time's sake? A nightmare for some, for others, a savior I come. My hands cold and bleak. It's the warm hearts they seek.
Death.
Right again. Goodbye, Jim.
