Still, two days we've been

Hush-hush.

Stands to reason it's hidden.

You could piss on

How much more hidden do ye want?

He's not certain?

No.
No doubt he's cozy

in his wee lab

You better not finish

She forgives you for
kidnapping him ten years ago?

And you sail off

over and over.

- Wait--

- It certainly does.

- But not like the others.

- Good morning.
- Hi, Mrs. P.

Thanks so much
for coming early.

A work emergency literally
landed on my doorstep.

- Not a word.

You can always call me
day or night,

especially with Thomas gone.

How is the poor man?

- He's got his hands full,
I'm afraid,

planning the funeral

and tying up his
father's affairs.

Dealing with the police.

- I still can't believe it.

Murdered in an alley.

And they have
no idea who did it?

- Uh, no.
No one saw the killer.

He was, um...
he was very careful.

- I suppose a man
like Patrick Wayne

had any number of enemies.

Is that a terrible thing to say?

- No. It's just true.

- Well, when you talk
to Thomas,

tell him I'm thinking
about him.

God knows what
he's going through.

What is it, dear?

- I wish I knew what
he was going through.

I call every day,
and I-I leave messages

but he never--

Sometimes
I think maybe I should

just take Sam and go to him.

- So why don't you then?

- Wouldn't he say

- Did my Arthur

No.

One day he just goes and
tries to blow up the queen.

[huffs] Excuse me?

Might we not have
a conversation first?

Men will never tell you

- But then you never

or what they're thinking

- Well, what exactly do

- Hmm?

Nothing.

And maybe take her to the zoo.
And thanks so much.

He's probably out

gone to the prison.

The fence
could've lured him there.

- Lured him?

How the fuck does
a fence lure someone?

And for the record,

I still don't believe
this prison is here,

and I'm taking your scone.

[mumbling, mouth full]

- When Alfie came to me,

I told him I'd heard of a
secret prison on the Hebrides.

Only rumors.

I did some digging on my own.

- This scone is fucking
delicious by the way.

- I learned it's underground.
Top secret.

Made for those the
government wants to vanish.

And a few years ago,
it was upgraded.

It has what's called
a psychic fence.

The fence does many things,

but at its core,
it feeds on pain.

On memories.

People hallucinate their pasts,

lose track of what's real.

Eventually, they go mad.

Now, can we please find Alfie?

- Yeah, yeah.

[vehicle approaches]

I think we might have
our own problems.

Fucking move.
Go, go, go, go, go!

- Is that even?

- A little to the left,
maybe, ma'am.

There are reports of an
outsider at the village inn.

I sent a team.

- And the intruder?

- We...haven't found him.

- And?

- Prisoner 47 is missing.

- I wonder if we made
a mistake shielding you

and your men
from the psychic fence.

It would be painful,

but it might help you to
overcome whatever psychic wound

makes you so incompetent.

Your father beat you,
didn't he?

- Ma'am.

- The fence has imprinted
on the intruder.

Finding him is only
a matter of time.

Then he and I...
will have a session.

I think it will be
very productive.

- You're lost, aren't you?

- I'm just turned around.

All these bloody corridors
look the same.

Does she have children?

What does she do?
I haven't seen her in ten years.

- No husband or kids.

She stopped studying medicine
to carry on your work.

It's her life now.

- Then I'm sorry.
It is a lonely life.

- Nah, she's a leader.
People believe in her.

You'd be proud.
This way.

- How do you know her?

- I was hired to protect her
when she was in England.

We got on well together.

- You mean you were lovers?

Does my daughter
know you're here?

- No, as it happens.

- It occurs to me
that I should have a weapon.

- All right.
Try not to use it.

I don't want to shoot anyone
if we can help it.

- Drop the gun.

- Steady.

I'm on your side.

Yeah.

It's the fence.

It muddles your thinking.

You can trust me.

- I'll tell you what
I've learned to trust.

A handful of memories
I know to be true.

The color of my wife's eyes.

My daughter's hand in mine as
we stood at the edge of the sea.

And the voice of the man

who took me away
from everyone I love.

Your voice, Mr. Pennyworth.

I took a little time
to be sure, but it is you.

- I was a soldier.

I was obeying orders.

And for what it's worth,
I'm sorry.

- Spare me your remorse.

You have one chance
to convince me

this isn't some game of
your government's

and that I can trust you.
- I told you why.

- I'm supposed to believe you
are doing this all for love?

- Is that so hard?

- Coming from a man like you?

Yes.
- The truth is,

I don't know what I feel
about your daughter, Mr. Khin.

But when she found out
who I was,

that I was the one
who took you,

I saw the way she looked at me.

barmy interrogation is this?

You should be asking me

It's a human being.

Four years ago,
as I was starting my research

into enhanced individuals,
I was called to investigate

a potential case, a young man.

I was told he could
call up other people's

darkest, most painful memories.

Things they themselves
tried to forget.

His family had deserted him.
He was alone.

He needed help.

So I took him in.

I built a sort of helmet
with an electro-magnetic coil

thinking it would dampen
his powers.

It made things worse.
His powers grew.

Other people's pain
was like a drug.

He needed more and more.

There's no telling
what he's become.

- He's downstairs
waiting for you.

- You should stay here.

- No.

I'm going. Alone.

- Are you off your fucking head?
- It's a prison without walls,

the old man said.
- So?

- So it's not this place.
It's us.

We're the prison.

Trapped inside ourselves
until we decide otherwise.

I'm going.

- Well, it sounds like
that'll kill him.

- Honestly, I think that's
why he brought you here.

- Thank you.

- Alfie, I still cannot
believe what you did.

- Your father never
should've been in that place.

- I regret the things
I said to you.

I was angry and I'm sorry.

- Water under the bridge.

All's well.

- I have to take my
father out of the country.

Today.

It's the only way
he will be safe.

- Of course.

- I told you that it would
take more than rescuing me

to make you a good man.

I was wrong.

You are a good man,
Alfred Pennyworth.

- You were right about
one thing though.

You do have to face your ghosts.

- And have you done so?

- Working on it.

- I hope we meet again.
