"After an incident gone wrong; which took the life of Mrs. Deborah Ericks and her unborn daughter, Charlie Pucketts, otherwise known as the Pranks Master, had been sent to Arkham after an insanity plea from his lawyer.; much to Charlie's displeasure, and even more so after he was brought to Arkham kicking, screaming, and throwing punches. making it perfectly clear that he did not wish to be sent to our asylum. However, the young man is still suffering from the trauma of Mrs. Erick's death and the reemergence of his past with his father. A week had passed and now Professor Hugo Strange took it upon himself to speak to the young lad personally, and hopefully can reassure the boy that Arkham Asylum is the care he needs." - Dr. Jeremiah Arkham

Hugo Strange: Ah. Mr. Pucketts, welcome. Please take a seat.

"Patient proceeds to sit in the empty chair in front of him, and watches as the professor sits in the seat behind his desk."

Hugo Strange: My name is Hugo Strange. I am the chief of Psychiatry here at Arkham Asylum.

Prank Master: Oh great. Wonderful! Just whoop-de-freaking-doo for you!

Hugo Strange: "Clears throat." I take it you're not having a fair adjustment to the asylum?

Prank Master: Hmm, good question. Am I? Let me think about that for a...NO! I shouldn't even be in this dump! Never in a million...no, scratch that. Never in infinity and beyond would I ask to be placed in this hell you loons would call a "mental hospital"! If my crappy lawyer didn't open his fat mouth, then maybe I could have been back at Blackgate. I know I would prefer it! Like seriously! Do you think I wanted this?

Hugo Strange: No, no. Of course not. However, what I believe should be done is taking responsibility for your actions, and the trauma that has re-emerged because of the situation. What happened to Mrs. Ericks and her unborn child was very tragic, and it must have been terrible for you to relive the nightmare that your father put you in. However, your breakdown leads me to believe that you in fact need help, and that help is what Arkham can provide Charles. Here we can-

Prank Master: -Excuse me, Professor. I can call you Professor right?

Hugo Strange: Of course.

Prank Master: Great. For a while, I wasn't sure if you went by Professor Strange or Doctor Strange.

Hugo Strange: Ah yes. A common confusion.

Prank Master: Yeah I'm sure. Anyway, if it's too much trouble, I would prefer it if you called me Charlie. Not Charles, or Chuck, or Chuckie. Those trigger my nerves if you get my drift.

Hugo Strange: Very well. My apologies. Anyhow, this is why I wished to speak with you. I wish to reassure you that the staff of Arkham Asylum will strive to help you. Giving you the proper treatments and care to bring you back to a safe sound of mind. With our help, your path to rehabilitation will be inevitable.

Prank Master: Wonderful. I'm sure you said that to all the other loonies in this place. Color me crazy. But I don't think this place makes anyone better. I mean look what happened to that loan shark. Let me ask you this Prof. Did that guy get the "proper care" he needed for his "rehabilitation"?

Hugo Strange: Now Charlie, I can see your arguments about the conditions of some of our patients, and to some degree, I do agree with you. However, what happened to Mr. White was unfortunately out of our control.

Prank Master: Oh, that makes me feel so much better.

Hugo Strange: Please be reassured that we at Arkham strive to make the living conditions better for everyone, especially after the incident with Mr. White. And yours will be no different. I assure you that it will not be repeated.

Prank Master: I'm still not buying it, Prof.

Hugo Strange: Well then, allow us to prove it to you. I hope to change your mind about us in the future. But with that addressed, I will be honest with you. Most of our doctors are a tad occupied with their patients and hiring new doctors has been rather difficult as of late.

Prank Master: I can't imagine why.

Hugo Strange: However, I would like to continue with you and any future discussions that shall be brought up in the future.

Prank Master: "Shrugs shoulders" Sure. Why not? As long as you're not Dr. Arkham, I'm game.

Hugo Strange: Hmm, you seem to have a certain distrust for Dr. Arkham. That is a very common trait I find within our patients of late. Why is that?

Prank Master: Pfft! Are you kidding? Come on Strange, he's an Arkham! Hello? Arkham Madness and all? Everyone in Gotham knows about it! Like 99.99 percent of the time, they are either whack jobs, morons, murderers, rapists, pedophiles, hell maybe even a combination of all of the above. Okay, the last two might be stretching it. But I wouldn't be surprised if they were true.

Hugo Strange: And what would the .01 be? If I may ask.

Prank Master: I don't know. But you could probably fill in that gap with something and it would make as much sense as anything with the Arkham family.

Hugo Strange: I see. Well, I suppose that will be all the time we have for today. Have a good rest of your day Charlie, and I shall see you Sunday.

Prank Master: Sure.
