The episode begins with a zoom in shot of the gcpt headquarters, the scene then Fades to an interrogation room one of the officers which the camera pans up to a video is Bullock begins to speak firs
Harvey Bullock: No you listen here you dirtbag!, you better tell us where you put that priceless ancient mirror I swear i'll
But he's interrupted by the Batman appearing out of nowhere to put a hand on his shoulder
Batman: Calm down Bullock, he's just trying to mess with you, listen I'll go do a sweep of the city see if I can find any clue is about where he hid it, call me if you decides to talk
And with that the bat is gone, exiting much like he appeared from nowhere back into nowhere
The scene cuts to the Batmobile driving through the streets of golf I'm at a leisurely pace as inside the bat surveys his surroundings looking for anything or anyone suspicious
As he's about to drive past a mirror shop there's a sudden crashing noise, when he glances to the window he sees a a Shadow that bears a striking resemblance to the hatter
The Batman gets a look of shock on his face which is eased when the figure movie into the light being shown into the store by a street light, or feeling but though the man has a similar build he seems older and has red hair and a very stupid looking mustache
Fake Hatter: Oh God, oh God I hope no one saw that,* he looks around to see if the coast is clear* I seem to be alone good but you get to the register
The figure begins to put lots of money from the register into a bag he's holding, he's barely gotten two words in when the Batman strollers gingerly into the mirror shop
Fake Hatter: oh f-
But before he can finish his expletive he's grabbed by the wrist and drag to the Batmobile
The fake Hatter really looks at the rear view mirror closes his eyes tight and mother's something that sounds like a Celtic spell
The Batman had barely sit down in the front seat and was about to ask the fake hatter a question but in the blink of an eye the fake Hatter was gone
Batman gets a confused look on his face but decides to brush it off and continue surveying the city
Meanwhile back at gcpd headquarters in the interrogation room the hatter looks into a handheld mirror he will question from Bullock
hatter: You idiotic copy, I knew I shouldn't have sent someone with such a stupid mustache to do such a simple task
The camera pans to the mirror revealing the fake Hatter standing sheepishly
hatter: * exasperated sigh* hopefully my other copy is better than you are doing the task I gave him
The scene Cuts back to the bat who stops at the abandoned Storyland amusement park, the scene Cuts again to Batman in the park when there's a mumbling from Looking Glass House of mirrors
When the back gets closer a voice can be clearly heard saying: Come on.. I think I see something..yes!, there it is
Batman slips into the Funhouse and quickly finds a small figure in a top hat rising from the ground triumphant, and one of his hands is the expensive ancient mirror that was stolen by the real Hatter, engrained in its hilt is Celtic symbols
The second fake Hatters celebration is interrupted when he glances over and sees the bat, in a Flash he rushes into one of mirrors in the hall and disappears inside of its reflective surface
Experimentally batman puts his hand to his ass and feels it's a solid surface, determinately he turns back and walks to the Batmobile determined to get some answers
The scene Cuts back to The gcpd Hideout once more as batman enters the interrogation room, he stands imposingly over the hatter before beginning to speak
Batman: I know you have it, tetch
The hatter: Have what I may inquire
Batman: Don't play dumb with me!* snaps his fist into the table* I know you have the mirror
the hatter: Oh you mean* he reaches into his couch and pulls out the ancient mirror* this mirror
Batman: You better hand it over now or
But before you can finish there's a sharp pain in his head and everything goes black
When he wakes up he's tied to the chair he was sitting on and in front of him stands three haters, one is the real one and the other two are the copies
The real Hatter: Good to see you up Batman, seeing as you've already met my inferior copies
Short Hatter: *In an angry tone* inferior! Who you calling inferior buddy
Mustache Hatter:* sadness in his voice* i- inferior?
The wheel Hatter just looks at them both and annoyance before continuing with a flourish he will be used the stolen ancient mirror
The real Hatter: You see Batman this little trinket can make copy of whoever looks into it, allow me to demonstrate
He waves the mirror in front of his face and points it outwards to an empty corner in a flash of light another copy of the hat is created this one is tall but lanky his hair is red and Bolding and he wears a patchwork outfit
Weird Hatter: I like pudding!
The other people in the room look at the new copy in Confused discussed, with a clearing of his throat the hatter begins to speak again
The real Hatter: Anyways, I believe Batman it's time for you to die
He pulls out a very scary looking pocket knife from his coat, but before he can raise it and plunge it into the bat one of his clones, the shorter one begins wrestling him for the knife and the honor of killing the bat
Seeming to suddenly have a backbone the mustache clone also begins to fight for the knife, picasso sends the mirror to the floor and skittering to the weird Hatter, Who picks it up and begins to chew on it, with one hard bite the mirrors glass is cracked and when the weird had to pull it out of his mouth one of the pieces falls to the floor
Weird Hatter: Uh-oh, I think I did a bad
And with that statement a spider web of cracks begins to form on the fake Hatters, beginning with the weird one who babbles in distress before shattering into what seems to be a bajillion pieces, then the mustache hatter who begins crying before similarly breaking into a million pieces, the short one almost gets a curse out but similarly burst into a thousand pieces
And so the one that's left is the real one who collapses to the ground in existential horror at seeing copies of himself die
And the Final Cut finds us and Arkham's recreation room, where the hatter and scarecrow attempt to play chess, the hat is mine still lingers on the visions of horrible shattering death he witnessed
Scarecrow: For what it's worth jervis I think there's only room for one hatter in this world
hatter:* staring off into space* me too Mr Crane, me too
