S1 E15Unfinished Business

We have a history, you and I. But if you ever pull a gun on me again, Olga will be cleaning your brains off the floor. She's a real whiz with stains.

[smiles] Bye, Pengie.

Tell me what you want.

I want to break Butch's heart before I end his life. Y'know, kind of an "eye for an eye" thing. [glances at Tabitha's bound wrist and smiles] Although, in this case, I'll take a hand.

Tabby, baby, the past few weeks have been the best of my life. And it's OK that you don't love me, because I love you. For a guy like me, that's enough. [to Nygma] And you. You're damn right I killed her. I killed the woman you loved. You know what she said to me right before I put a bullet in her brain? You know what she told me? She said she wished she would have been with a real man.

This woman, Isabella. Nygma said she was a librarian, right? Well, who kills a librarian? I mean, what's the motive?

I dunno. Maybe someone had an overdue book and things got out of hand.

I am tired of sitting at the kids' table. If I'm right, we can have way more than vengeance. We can have it all. We don't need to go to war. All we need to do is start one.

This is just a classic case of wrong place, wrong time. One man takes another man's skull in his bare hands and crushes it. I see it all the time.

Jim, Jim, you're ahead of schedule. Our paths weren't meant to cross just yet. But I'm not going to kill you yet. I do that, you become the martyr, and she'll carry you in her heart forever. No, before I kill you, she has to hate you. And she will.

I know of whom you speak, oh yes indeed! I stabbed him, and pricked him, and caused him to bleed. But nothing you can say, no words you might possess, can pry from me the smallest guess. For this game is my game, I say when it's done - and right now I'm having too much fun!

Nothing! Nothing! I'll tell you naught. His name shall be neither spoken nor taught. He'll cut and he'll crush, and the blood will run thick. Though from healer to killer is no easy trick.

I love you. I love you. I never stopped. I should have come to see you as soon as I got out of prison, but I couldn't. I was ashamed. I felt I had to set things right. But I did finally come, Lee. I saw you in the window with him. You were smiling. You looked happy. I couldn't bring myself to come in. I've regretted it every day since. Please, don't marry him.

After the wedding, Mario and I are leaving Gotham. I'll never see you again.

Lee...

[crying] Damn you for telling me this now! You come in here with these crazy accusations, and when I don't believe you, you pull this? How dare you! [she slaps him]

Don't you see? He wants you to hate me.

Well, he succeeded.

You messed up, Jim. Killed the Don's son. He's beside himself. I've never seen him like this before.

I wanna speak to him.

Oh no, we're way past that. It's only a matter of time before he gives the nod to put a bullet in your head.

You could try.

I don't... try. And I never stop. You won't see me coming, and you won't feel a thing. If we don't get a chance to talk before then, it's been really nice knowing you. You're a good egg. Also, nice shot on Mario. Never liked him.

You want to know about you husband. Was he a diseased maniac? Would he have killed you? Well, I can tell you this: I've never felt better in my life. Clearer. Stronger. More focused. Even now, I can feel it coursing through my veins, restoring my body.

So Mario could have lived a normal life with it. It would have given us time to find a cure. Jim didn't didn't have to kill him.

Cure? This virus isn't the disease, it's the antidote! It's the best thing that ever happened to me. I don't need a cure. The murderers, thieves, rapists... James Gordon is one of them. When I get out of here - and trust me, I will - he'll be the first that I judge. He, and all the other human garbage that plague this city. All will be tried, convicted and executed! I will purge Gotham, and the innocents will thank me! Their savior! Their executioner!
