All language subtitles for Batwoman S01E12

This is constructed
of actual human skin?

Yeah. We linked DNA on the mask

to dozens of individuals, all dead.

I'm not following.

SOPHIE: Alice robbed a series
of morgues a few months ago.

We think she was
stealing skin off corpses

to help Mouse make that mask

so he can impersonate Commander Kane

and kill Catherine in the process.

Look, Dr. Campbell. Your name carries

a lot of weight in this city.

We could really use your testimony.

I agree. There's a
definite likeness to you,

but, uh, the notion of
a man crafting a mask

out of different skins to
perfectly resemble the face

of another man

and pulling it off convincingly,

this... heh heh... is science fiction.

Right now, we have an innocent man

in prison and a murderer in custody

who's refusing to talk.

Doctor, if there's any way
you can help with this...

I'm sorry.

You say you have, uh,
this Mouse character

under lock and key?

Yeah. We got him on 24-hour watch

in Gotham General.

I'll need to meet him.

I'll run a few tests,
and if they convince me

this is possible, then
I'll sign the affidavit

testifying that an innocent
man could have been framed.

Thank you, Dr. Campbell.

I hope I can get you out of here.

I really do.

We need you back at headquarters.

Don't doubt yourself. You'll find Alice.

And if I don't,

her next victim's on me.

You want to prove to this city

from Alice to every
two-bit criminal wannabe

that you're a force to be reckoned with?

Well, then you eliminate
the threat at any cost.

Go, go, go. Move, move!

SOPHIE: Honestly, I don't
know who's a bigger threat

to Gotham... Alice

or us for letting her get away.

Hands up. Don't move!

[SIRENS]

Show us your hands!

SOPHIE: I want her dealt with for good,

which is why I'm ordering a B-42.

You sure you can do that, Moore?

It's acting commander, and yes.

If you see Alice, do not hesitate.

Shoot to kill.

Weird observation, but Gotham seemed

a lot less bumpy on my Earth.

Sorry, Beth. I'm avoiding checkpoints.

MARY: We need to get you out of town.

Once we get you out of
The Crows' crosshairs,

we can figure out what's wrong with you.

Oh, my God! Your ear! You're bleeding.

It's getting worse. Speed up.

I would love to, Mary,
but slight problem.

Since when is there a checkpoint here?

Guys, I can't exactly turn around.

Uh, tell them I'm going into labor

and we need to get to a hospital.

Um, have you seen you?

[COUGHING] I can't breathe.

Okay. Now what the hell is the problem?

I'm obviously having an asthma attack
and in need of medical attention.

Okay. I'm sorry. Your asthma
attack's not very believable.

Why is the concept of lying
so difficult for you to grasp?

- Your yelling's not... stop!
- Why can't you just lie?

- Guys!
- Yeah. We're screwed.

Under the blanket. Go, go, go, go, go!

Okay! It's tight.

Guys, guys, guys, I got to stop.

[RADIO CHATTER]

Look. Not to pull the whole

do you know who my father is,

but maybe the reason
Alice escaped your custody

in the first place is because The Crows

have a tendency of overlooking
minor details like hi.

My dad is your boss.

- Miss Hamilton.
- Exactly.

So if you could just tell
your boys to stand down.

Just trying to do our job, ma'am.

And we so do appreciate it.

[HIGH-PITCHED SOUND]

MARY: Go, Gotham!

[BETH GROANS]

Okay. I'm gonna have to get
you to step out of the car.

Sir, that was my yorkie.
Automatic weapons give him anxiety.

Get out of damn the car!

Okay. We're cool.

Just gonna reach for my seatbelt, okay?

Any ideas?

Panic?

MAN: Step out of the vehicle, ma'am.

MARY: Okay. Okay.

Really? We're doing this?

[GROANING]

Got someone in the back.

Aah!

MAN: What's going on?

[ENGINE REVVING]

Halt! Stop!

_

Agh!

Go!

VESPER: Apologies for a
late broadcast, Gotham.

Like many of you, I was
stopped on my way to work

by Crows agents looking for Alice.

On the upside, I'm pretty sure

that involuntary pat-down
counts as my annual mammogram.

Holy police state, Batwoman!

Can we find her already?

[RADIO CHATTER]

ALICE: What are we looking for?

[GROANS]

Now see, I wouldn't be
caught dead in that uniform,

but I'm glad you were.

Heh.

[HIGH-PITCHED SOUND]

Ohh! Agh!

[MOANING]

[MOANING]

KATE: Hey. You figured it out yet?

MARY: No swelling, no pressure buildup.

Her hearing's fine.

Hemophilia causes nosebleeds,

but she has no sign of any bruising,

and it doesn't explain the migraines.

All that is to say that no,
I haven't figured it out yet,

but I won't stop until I do.

You missed all the fun.

Batwoman showed up and saved us.

Really? That's fortunate.

She likes me. Plus she
kind of owed me one.

Really?

- MARY: Okay. Problem.
- KATE: What?

Her cells are disintegrating
on a molecular level.

BETH: May I? I'm no
expert in Multiverses...

LUKE: But you are two
credits shy of astrophysicist,

so whatever you're thinking, spill.

Well, I've read some theories...

the multiple universe hypotheses,

inflation model, MWI
of quantum mechanics.

MWI?

- Many Worlds...
- Many Worlds Interpretation.

Does anyone here speak real people?

Right. Um, in my research,

I theorize that all of these universes

are separated for a reason.

If I'm right, it means Alice

has one mother of a headache now, too.

Collateral damage from
the Multiverse collapsing.

In other words, this universe

is literally not big
enough for the both of us,

and the longer we coexist in this world,

the more we're living on borrowed time

except we're borrowing
it from each other.

As cells decay, the body goes haywire,

synaptic misfire, pain
receptors go into overdrive

until eventually...

If we can't find a way to save you,

you're both gonna die.

MARY: So not to pile on, but according

to this neurodegeneration program,

at this rapid rate
of cell deterioration,

eventually is about 7 hours from now.

Does alcohol slow down
degeneration or something?

Here.

No, but it gives me a buzz
while I face my mortality.

You are not going to die, right?

MARY: Uh, okay. So when in your
mind did I become proficient

in extraterrestrial cell decay?

We need to get her to a hospital.

Where The Crows will kill her

before anyone could say Multiverse.

BETH: See? Whiskey. Hmm?

We have 3 of the
smartest people in Gotham

in this room right now.

Put your heads together
and think of something.

Where are you going?

If Beth is enemy number one in Gotham,

then we have to get her to
a hospital outside the city.

Maybe a face to face
with this new commander

can help us get past the checkpoints.

[WHISPERING] Sorry. By
telling her what exactly?

I haven't figured that out yet.

I have. It's easy. All you have to say

is that "An event called Crisis merged

an infinite number of universes,

resulting in Alice's not-so-evil twin

from another Earth
ending up on this Earth.

Just ask Supergirl or The Flash,

and, oh, by the way, I
swear I'm not Batwoman".

[COUGHING]

[COUGHING]

[INDISTINCT CHATTER]

Orders to transport the inmate.

- Get away from me.
- Mouse.

It's me, my darling.

I've come to get you out of here.

How are you doing that?

How are you her?

How am I who?

You're speaking nonsense.

"The queen of hearts,
she made some tarts

all on a summer day.

The knave of hearts, he
stole those tarts and"...

- Yeah?
- And?

"And took them quite away".

What's wrong with you?

- Alice?
- Yes.

Who the hell else would I be?

- She tricked me.
- Who?

A girl with your face

and your eyes and your smile.

Alice she was... she was you, I swear.

That... that girl and your sister,

they convinced me she was you.

That's how Kate got away,
how I ended up here.

It was a perfect match,
and I believed her.

Alice, your ear.

"I do believe you to be right

and something else to be
wrong from beginning to end".

Why are your ears bleeding?

You have enough on your plate

without having to worry about me.

Where... where are you going?

Change of plans, little Mouse.

I have some digging to do,

and when I find my answers,

I'll be back for you.

I know you will.

SOPHIE: Eyes on all the doors,
dumpsters, rafters, drainpipes.

Remember she's a sewer rat.

[THUD]

You ambushed 5 of my guys
at a checkpoint last night.

Care to explain?

Detaining the former
commander's daughter,

that's a statement.

Besides, what happened
to probable cause?

Alice got away on my watch.

It's on me to find her.

And it's on me to protect my city.

Copy that. So if the
law-breaking vigilante

is done telling me how to do my job,

I should get back to it.

Call off the shoot-to-kill
order on Alice.

Why are you protecting a
terrorist all of a sudden?

I'm protecting you.

Is this really how you
want to start your command,

roughing up innocents,
unlawful searches?

Your boss is in jail.
You're losing your clients,

and half the city thinks
The Crows are on some kind

of power trip.

A manhunt like this puts
innocent lives in jeopardy.

Alice puts innocent lives in jeopardy.

Then let me find her my way.

Tell The Crows to stand down.

Are you crazy?

You once told me you trusted me.

I'm sorry.

MAN: Commander Moore!

I can't.

[GRAPPLING LINE FIRES]

[WHOOSH]

- Remember me, Commander?
- Dodgson.

Unh!

[GROANING]

I'll take that as a yes.

LUKE: What about cryotechnology?

Bruce knew a guy with a cryogenic tank.

We freeze your body in cryostasis

and slow the cell deterioration.

So a -196 degree bath
in liquid nitrogen?

Yeah, that sounds survivable.

Fair.

Hyperbaric chamber? We could simulate

high altitude and increase
my red blood cell count.

You'd never adapt to hypoxia in the...

3 hours and 37 minutes you have left.

It'll probably just kill you faster.

Okay. I'll just keep drinking.

We have to be able
to think of something.

We already have, Luke.

We're both just too polite to say it

because it's the one option that

Kate refuses to consider.

The Earth's balance can't handle
the existence of two Beth Kanes.

In order for one of us to live,

the other has to die.

[COUGHING]

[ALICE COUGHING]

You are...

Not me.

A cataclysmic collapse
of another universe?

An infinite number actually,

probably having existed
in parallel past, present,

and future timelines.

ALICE: Hmm.

"Alice thought the
whole thing very absurd,

but they all looked so grave

that she did not dare to laugh".

How did you get in here Alice?

The front desk guy Kyle... Kent...

- Carl.
- Carl. Yes.

You'll find him in the janitor's closet.

KATE: We need a new plan.
Sophie is not messing...

Around.

You weren't going to tell me, Kate?

We have a sister.

You haven't exactly
made yourself available.

Here I am, and...

Here you are.

Smart...

Friendly...

Adorable.

KATE: Leave her alone!

No. It's okay.

I understand why she resents me.

Oh, goody.

Let's add blindly
empathetic to the list.

I'm just saying

I wasn't held captive for half my life.

I'm confused.

Surely someone found you
washed up on the riverbank

after mommy's car
crashed into the river.

No one found me

because I never washed
up onto the riverbank.

Then how did you survive
the infamous crash?

Do tell. I doubt you
simply swam to shore

like a nimble, little frog

paddling past mother's head

as it bobbed in the rapids.

Beth... didn't go over.

But there was a crash, was there not?

Oh. I see.

So on your earth,

rather than simply
standing by and sobbing,

your Kate pulled you from
the car before it fell.

I always wondered what my life

would have been like
if you had saved me.

I just never imagined
that I'd be so... basic.

Eyes that never had
to witness the horrors

that I saw.

Ears that never had to
hear the evils I heard.

Lips that never had to beg for her life.

Because two Beth Kanes
can't exist at the same time.

Technically speaking, we are an anomaly

of intergalactic proportions.

Got it.

So in order for one of us to live,

the other has to die.

Now I am no astrophysicist,

but I'm pretty sure that two
minus the one who doesn't belong

means I get to live,

and my knife is pretty
good at subtraction.

[GASPS]

How did you do that?

[BETH AND ALICE GROANING]

Alice, stop!

LUKE: Kate, Beth needs you.

We're running out of time.

Got a trial date yet?

They're a little slow around here.

[BOTH GRUNTING]

I thought you and I could use
a little alone time to talk.

Oh. I didn't think you did anything

without Alice's permission.

Unh! Ohh!

The only thing more
dangerous than a corrupt man

is one who thinks he's noble.

I'm not sure I need a morality lesson

from the guy who sided with one
of Gotham's most prolific killers.

Alice had a psychotic break to survive.

She never claimed to be good.

You did...

But your men tampered with evidence,

bribed and beat the
people who are too poor

to afford The Crows' services.

Your men killed good people,

so now I'm gonna kill you.

Thank you.

You're better to me alive, puppy dog.

According to my sources,
you're on your way out of here,

and now that I got a target on my back

for saving a glorified cop,

it's only a matter of time before
I need you to return the favor.

[COUGHING]

Ugh.

MARY: So abnormalities,
common birth defects.

Where are you, cosmic catastrophes?

[ALICE BREATHING HEAVILY]

Oh, look. Another sister.

ALICE: Uh-uh-uh.

Do no harm, remember?

Help me.

Uh, no.

You are not allowed to discriminate.

Do something.

Freak show cosmic anomalies are way

above my pay grade.

Lest we forget I saved your life.

Oh, lest we forget you had
your creepy, little dormouse

dress up as my dad and
poison me and my mom.

But you lived, healed from the...

poison instantly...

Because I gave you the
only antidote on the planet.

The serum from the Coriana Desert Rose.

People underestimate you, Mary.

No.

Turns out you are very, very useful.

No!

[INDISTINCT ANNOUNCEMENT OVER PA]

Jonathan Cartwright,

my name is Dr. Ethan Campbell,

and I am a plastic
surgeon here in Gotham.

I understand that you pulled off

quite the scientific feat.

Consider me intrigued.

I'm not speaking to anyone.

Look at you.

All grown up,

out in the world with
friends who love you.

From my research, it seems that you

even got yourself a job
at Dusty's Roadside Tavern.

You see, purpose in life
is a hard thing to come by.

I would know.

I spent a decade reestablishing mine.

Am I supposed to know you?

That's precisely the point... Johnny.

You aren't.

No. My purpose,

shielding my son from ridicule,

carving out a pocket
in a world of anguish

so that he could feel love and joy,

that purpose was undone

when... my own boy...

betrayed me.

Dad?

Hello, son.

It is a father's greatest joy

to see his son follow in his footsteps.

You could have made me so proud.

I thought you were dead.

As I intended.

Meanwhile, I took on
the life I deserved.

Recognition, praise, prestige...

But... at the cost of losing you...

Because of her.

- Tell me where Alice is.
- Why?

So you can kill her?

Tell me where she is, Johnny,

so I can forgive you.

Forgive me?

For what?

For standing up to my abuser?

For being a weak, little boy

too powerless to realize a broken girl

with a distorted imagination

was taking advantage of you.

You gave her to me.

As a playmate, and you

let her convince you
that she was family.

She was my family.

She accepted me...

All of me...

the scars, the burns, the face

you raised me to believe was

too repulsive for the world to see.

You looked at me, and you saw a monster.

She saw the window to the world.

I will never, ever betray her.

Tell me where she is, son.

What are you doing?

Making it so you no
longer have a choice.

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no.

Uhh!

Let me have it!

- Aah!
- Aah!

[MARY GRUNTING]

Aah! Hyah!

Mary!

My brilliant, beautiful stepsister,

I beg you as family.

That blood is the only thing

that will keep me alive.

I know,

and I can't think of
anyone who deserves it less.

[DIAL TONE]

[LINE RINGING]

MAN: Crows security.

I understand you're looking

for the leader of the Wonderland gang.

I believe I know where
that little wench is hiding.

KATE: Good news. Mary called,

said she found something out.

She's on her way.

I like her.

Promise me you'll protect her, okay?

We are not having
those conversations, okay?

You're gonna make it through this.

You just have to hold on.

Distract me then.

What's Luke's deal?

Why? Okay. The hallucinations
have definitely started.

[COUGHING]

What about you, hmm?

Why are you still single?

You sure this is how you want
to spend your last 45 minutes?

You and I...

We never did the twin jealousy thing.

We were always looking
out for each other,

checking in,

getting advice,

but there's one thing that you had

that I always wanted.

A soul mate.

Really? Anyone I know?

[HELICOPTER APPROACHING]

MAN ON P.A.: Alice,
we know you're inside.

Surrender immediately.

We have the building surrounded.

[SIRENS]

[TIRES SQUEALING]

Let's go!

SOPHIE: I'm at the west
entrance of Wayne tower,

positioned for entry.

BETH: What the hell is going on?

Alice called The Crows,
hoping they would kill you.

Even on her deathbed,
she's ruthlessly brilliant.

So we have a major breach.

They're in the lobby, ascending
the east and west stairs.

Lock the elevators.

They're gonna be here any second.

Kate.

Kate.

- Batcave now.
- Okay.

Whoa, whoa, wait. What?

If The Crows find you,
they will kill you.

BETH: Yeah, I know. I got that.
Where are we going?

[APPROACHING FOOTSTEPS]

Catherine.

Ohh.

Catherine.

I see I'm...

being hunted on my
deathbed by my past. Heh.

Ooh. I'm so scared.

The universe must think fondly of Kate

to give her everything that she wants,

the version of you that she lost.

You don't know my sister.

No. I beg to differ.

I've known her almost as
long as you've known her.

Because you're a snake,

who slithered her way into my family.

I was accepted.

By your father, by your sister,

and despite all of the
mistakes that I made,

I showed remorse.

You don't have any remorse, Alice.

You're evil through and through,

and that's why Kate
will never choose you.

[GRUNTING]

Here's what's gonna happen.

Mary's gonna take that syringe to Kate

and tell her that it
will only save one of us.

Kate... Kate's gonna pick me.

For your sake, I hope that's true,

but just in case she chooses otherwise,

I'll save you a seat in hell.

BETH: Well, I finally found something

on this Earth to be jealous of.

Why risk your life every
night for a city of strangers?

Well, I think not saving Beth that day

on the bridge ignited something in me.

You couldn't save your
own mom and sister,

so now you save every mom and sister.

Guilt can make sane
people do crazy things.

This isn't guilt.

This is courage.

Hey. You need to sit.

LUKE: So The Crows are searching
this place top to bottom.

I counted 50 or so on foot

and 10 trucks outside,
a chopper in the air.

We're really going
to have wait them out.

We don't exactly have time to wait.

[CELL PHONE VIBRATING]

Mary, where have you been?

Okay. I'll be right out.

MARY: Oh, my God.

What the hell happened?

Alice called The Crows and
sent them into the building.

Oh, my God! Did they find Beth?

She's fine. I have a
panic room, remember?

Okay. That's right. That's genius.

- Okay. So how do we save them?
- What?

Said you found a way to save them.

- What is it?
- No, no, no.

I said I found a solution
to save one... Beth.

My blood.

When Alice poisoned me,
she gave me an antidote,

the serum from the Coriana Desert Rose.

She claimed it was a universal cure-all,

and it worked like a charm.

So we give it to them both.

Then it'll cancel out, and we'll end up

right where we started.

One has to have the edge over the other

even if it's just for a few seconds.

My blood will regenerate
enough of Beth's

red blood cells for her to
live a little bit longer.

And Alice dies,

and I walk away from her all over again?

You are not actually
considering saving Alice,

are you?

Kate, this is a no-brainer,

and not to rush you, but you've got

less than 20 minutes
before they're both dead,

so go in there and save one

of the most compassionate,
smartest humans

that I've ever met,

or go back into that
clinic and save Alice,

who killed my mom.

The choice is yours.

Kate... is that really you?

It's me.

Tell me you found Mary.

Yeah.

Did she... the syringe?

I know her blood is
the key to saving you.

I knew you'd come back.

I knew you'd choose me.

- Hey.
- Hey.

Can we have a minute?

- Sure.
- Thanks.

You're really not gonna tell me
who my soul mate was, are you?

And ruin all the fun?

Luke told me about the blood.

I'm sorry you're in this position.

I'm sorry you are.

Look. Before you make your decision,

can I just say after spending time

with Alice face to face,

her rage, her pain,

somehow I understand her,

and if circumstances had
turned out differently...

They didn't.

I didn't act. I didn't save her.

I did nothing,

and I'm not about to do nothing again.

You...

You have to hurry.

- Alice...
- No, Kate.

There's no time to...

I came to say good-bye.

What?

Good-bye, Alice.

No.

Are you sure this is
what you want to do?

Just you asking that is proof
that I made the right choice.

You've always been my hero.

You have to get her out
of here. They're tearing

through this place book by book,
and it's only a matter of time

- before they find the elevator.
- Yeah, but there's still

the small problem of the checkpoints.

Right. Take my bike.

The tunnels will get you. Past
the perimeter of the building,

and the bike will get you
through the checkpoint.

I'll be there as soon as I can.

So just back up. Take your who now?

- Batbike.
- Okay. Yeah.

I was just making sure
I heard what you said.

Making sure.

Kate, I don't know how
I can ever thank you.

You're alive, and
that's all that matters.

Hey. Hey. We got to go.

Why?

Because she's pure... and good?

[WHIMPERING]

You don't even know me, not the real me.

I know what you showed me.

I couldn't save you, and all I can hope

is that you find peace.

Stay with me.

I'm here.

[SIRENS]

- Halt!
- Stop!

William checkpoint to Moore.

SOPHIE: Go for Moore.

Possible Bat sighting.

Blazed through William checkpoint

headed north, unknown passenger.

Looked female. Could be Alice.

Possible target. You want us to pursue?

Negative. Stay put. I'm on it.

CARTWRIGHT: I hope that
guard won't miss his face.

What the hell are you doing to me?

Shh, shh, shh, shh.

Hush now, son.

I'll be back for you soon.

[MOUSE WHIMPERING]

[SCREAMING]

[WHEEZING]

Man, the acceleration index
on this bike is insane.

[NO DIALOGUE]

Moore to base.

I need backup for an arrest
at the Twin Pines Inn.

[GUNSHOT]

BETH: Unh!

LUKE: No. Hey. No, no, no, no.

Hey. Come on.

Hey. Don't. Come on. Wake up, Beth.

No. Beth, come on.

Beth, wake up.

No, no, no!

[SOBBING]

[GASPS]

You... let me die...

But I didn't.

Ha ha ha!
