Open on the Red Hood mask, with the surface of it reflecting the ACE Chemicals Plant in it. Go through The Killing Joke origin where the Joker is just a sad comedian whose forced into being the Red Hood and when Batman comes after him he pleads with him to not hurt him, that it's just a mistake, but Batman doesn't listen to him and throws him into the chemicals. Then show him crawling out of the river and pulling off his hood to see his face bleached, his hair green and a sadistic smile on his face.
Then we cut to the Joker in Arkham Asylum and the whole scene we just saw was him telling the story to Dr. Harleen Quinzel. The Joker says that he realizes now that the Batman victimizing him the way he did and it driving him insane is no excuse for what he's done since then and that with Harleen's help he's now cured. He asks her if she can get a package from a friend of his and bring it to him during their next session. She's hesitant, but he tells her it's just a family heirloom and it would really help him in his recovery. She agrees.
Then cut to the Joker firing a machine gun in Arkham. And his men strapping Harley onto the electroshock table. When Joker shocks her brain, we cut to the opening title:
SUICIDE SQUAD.
The Joker is maybe played by Alan Tudyk. But a casting change isn't necessarily needed.
Then cut to the conference scene where Amanda Waller tells them what she wants to do, that in Superman's absence they need a force for humanity, to protect them should they ever be threatened again. She gives the low down on the group, same deal, built in deniability etc.. The squad is comprised of Deadshot, Captain Boomerang, Slipknot, El Diablo, someone named Jason, Enchantress, Katana and Killer Croc, led by Rick Flagg. Harley Quinn is only put on the squad after they learn that the threat is Poison Ivy. We see the Deadshot, Boomerang, El Diablo, Enchantress, Katana and Killer Croc flashbacks. Katana is a volunteer. One of the conference members asks how are they gonna keep Enchantress from getting her heart. Waller explains that the box the heart is inside is made up of nth metal, which is magic proof.
They're recruited.
Poison Ivy threatens a city with her plant spores that will replace the concrete monstrosity of the city with plants and trees.
So Amanda Waller, because they have no knowledge of Poison Ivy's hangouts, decides to use Harley Quinn to find her.
We see the flashback of Harley being captured, after Jason Todd was murdered, where Batman chases down and wrecks the Joker's car, that he and Harley are in, onto a pier. Batman restrains Harley and beats the living crap out of the Joker, nearly killing him, but holds himself off. The Joker laughs in Batman's face, saying that he's disappointed in him, before setting off a grenade that blows up the pier, Harley falling and sinking into the water, to which Batman jumps in after her to save her. The Joker is presumed dead after that.
When the team is assembled, Deadshot introduces himself to Harley, to which she responds, "You know my name, but I don't know yours."
DS explains to her that he was hired to kill her once, but he rejected it. When she asks why, he tells her that he doesn't kill victims. She asks what that means. He tells her that he knows what the Joker did to her. She says that she's been told that by her psychiatrists and the Bat, but she never believed it, she thought that they were just trying to get her to turn on her Mr. J. But she insists that DS must be mistaken. He doesn't respond.
Harley asks who one of the soldier's are. Rick tells them that his name is Jason and he's complicated.
Jason is also a volunteer.
Meanwhile one of Harley's guards is captured by the Joker's thugs and taken to him, where he interrogates him for information about Harley's location. He gives Joker everything about the situation.
They're briefed on the threat. When Harley finds out that it's Poison Ivy, we flash back:
To the events of No Man's Land, where the Joker is in a gunfight with the Penguin's thugs and Harley is shot several times, but the Joker just leaves her there to die when he's chased by the thugs. Then a barefoot woman walks up to Harley, grass and flowers growing in her footsteps, as she bleeds to death.
Cut to Harley waking up with healing plant enzymes on her gunshot wounds, to Poison Ivy watching her in her lair, surrounded by children. H asks PI why she saved her and PI says that she protects the helpless, it's what she does. Harley is confused. Ivy tells her that she was left to die and she couldn't let a helpless victim of the Joker suffer that fate. PI proceeds to give the children food to eat. H asks why the Bat hasn't gotten her. PI says that Batman has bigger problems with the city having undergone a massive earthquake that's run out most regular people and left the city to the criminals and psychos. She continues that her and Batman have an arrangement, he brings her any lost, orphaned or abandoned children to take care of and he leaves her alone. H tries to leave on her own, but is stopped by Ivy, who tells her that she can't leave yet, as her wounds aren't fully healed yet. Harley thanks her for everything and she says that it was no problem. Harley and Ivy introduce themselves officially to eachother and shake hands.
Poison Ivy is played by Mary-Elizabeth Winstead.
The same scene where the Joker breaks into ARGUS' computer hard-drives or whatever and has Harley's bomb disabled.
The squad arrives on the scene and Flagg confirms that the entire area has been evacuated. Same basic scene with Slipknot.
They track down Ivy and confront her. They fight her plant people first, before they get to her. Deadshot sees ED not fighting and gets onto him about it. ED blows him off, saying he won't be a tool of violence and death anymore, he wants to do God's will. After a short battle, Enchantress possess Ivy's body. The squad tries to stop her, but she gives them traumatizing flashbacks to hold them off and fully possess Ivy, leaving June Moon's body.
Deadshot's flashbacks are of his dad abusing his mom when he was a child, beating her and him, him grabbing a gun and shooting his dad when he was going to kill her.
Harley's flashbacks are of her suffering electroshock therapy by the Joker.
Katana's is her husband being murdered with her sword.
Killer Croc's is his parents locking him in their basement as a child and feeding him scraps of meat like an animal.
Jason's are of him being beaten to death.
El Diablo's are of his house burning around him.
Enchantress proceeds to bring the building they're in down around them, the squad dodging the majority of the debris, but eventually getting knocked out.
Amanda Waller becomes enraged and sets off the charge in the heart to destroy it. But it doesn't work. E teleports herself to ARGUS and confronts Waller, saying, "You should have done your research. My heart is only a weakness in a body that needs one. This body is unique. It doesn't need a heart." She then threatens to burn the world if Waller doesn't unlock her heart from the box. Waller does as she says and Enchantress places her heart back into her body, saying, "Now, it can restore my full power without being a vulnerability."
