[Joker is sitting in a restaurant somewhere. There's a twinkle in his eye, one that hasn't been there since his re-arrival in the City.]
I dare say, I've been thinking about my little transdimensional vacation the wrong way. I've been here before, yes? And you know what they say. The show must go on. Ain't over until the fat lady sings and she hasn't even started humming yet. Not even a whistle.
[He looks thoughtful, as if he's said these words before and is only now starting to believe them]
Yes, I think I can get used to this place. My only problem is that someone has stolen from me. And I can't just ignore it anymore. I'm not okay with-ah...
[He waves to someone off camera. After a moment, he waves again and the waitress walks up.]
Darling, fetch daddy some bubbly.
[And he turns back to the camera, gesturing after her as she leaves.]
So hard to get a person's attention in this joint, I tells ya. Even the Bat's. I had to look him up! What kinda guy makes you do all the chasing!? I'm a busy man. It's hard setting up new business ventures in a new universe and he still makes me do all the work. I'm starting to think he doesn't love me anymore.
[The waitress sets a champagne glass down in front of him and he tilts his head.]
Anyhoo...What was I talking about before I so rudely interrupted myself? ...Oh! Yes. Theft. What should a chap do if something valuable has been stolen from him?
