The episode begins with a very sick Tim Drake lying miserably in his bed, from somewhere else green The Voice of Bruce Wayne is heard saying
Bruce Wayne: don't worry Tim we hired some nice folks to take care of you well me and Alfred are out on business, you be on your best behavior for them young man
the door shuts and the scene shifts to a shot of two forms walking up to Wayne Manor, the shorter one knocks on the door, Alfred opens the door and looks quizzically at the people he sees
Alfred: well you do don't exactly look like your poster
a voice that is obviously the haters: well you know had to Spruce it up a bit, but I do assure you we are quite professionally trained to take care of a sick child
Alfred waves them in
the scene cuts to after Alfred and Bruce have left in the car, Tim looks at them go with a grumpy expression, snorting up some leaking snot he tends to make his way downstairs, he nearly trips about two times but eventually he's downstairs and sniffling his way to the kitchen
Tim(mumbling under his breath): stupid Bruce, I don't even feel that sick,(he weighs as his voice to speak to the figures that have their backs to him) since you two are going to take care of me you might as well start on lunch
is annoyed look turns to surprise when the taller figure turns to reveal the unmasked face of the Scarecrow, the audience doesn't see his face the only see Tim's reaction and the back of his head
Tim: what the(his expletive is cut off by a sneeze) how did you even get in here
the hatter(dressed up in a miniature version of a Mary Poppins outfit complete with bag): your father hired us to look after you, no he thought he was going to get people a lot less... uniquely featured,(he leans over to whisper something into the boys ear) I'll tell you a secret kid, we actually here to steal some of your father's money
Tim: no! I won't(he's cut off by a spontaneous fit of hard coughing, which leaves him taking deep breaths which clearly are causing him pain)
scarecrow: damn this kid really is sick, listen kid you sit tight and we'll get you some medicine
the Scarecrow wanders off, leaving Tim with the hatter, the hatter starts making some soup and soon a steaming bowl is placed in front of Tim
Tim: I'm not eating this, it's probably poisoned
Hatter: listen kid we're just here to take some money not kill any children, besides I wouldn't do that to your father, he's a good man he doesn't deserve the pain of losing a loved one again in his life
Tim takes a suspicious sip of the soup and finds it quite soothing on his throat and delicious to his tongue, soon the Scarecrow comes back from wherever he was with a bottle of cold medicine
scarecrow: all right little guy, this may taste gross, but it's going to make you feel a lot better in the morning(the medicine comes out of the bottle like molasses
Tim makes a disgusted face at the site, but he swallows down the Spoonful he's given
Tim(after sucking down half a glass of water): are you guys not worried I'm going to tell my pops you stole from him
Hatter: we know you won't, cuz if you did you wouldn't be able to play this(he pulls out a game case out of his bag, it's Illustrated with explosions and action guys)
Tim(excitement in his eyes): oh my God!, that's the newest murder Mayhem game, where'd you get it!
Scarecrow(amusement lining his tone): the weather still got some cred in the video game industry, and since we're friends he gave us a special copy, with a lot more blood and guts,(Kim's excitement greatly increases) but you only get to play it if you promise you're not going to tell your dad we rifle through his safes, which reminds me which one has the most shiny stuff in it
Tim: the one beside his bed,(he reaches out his hands and makes movements for them to hand the game over, the hatter does and he holds it to his chest like a lifeline), you guys are the best!
Later that night came as fast asleep exhausted mixture of his sickness fatigue and all the excitement of the game he was playing, the hatter and scarecrow tuck him into bed and make the way down into living room
Bruce: you two did a really good job, if you have any free time I'd be very eager to have your back the next time he needs some looking after
hatter: we'd be glad to Mr Wayne, Tim is a fine boy
jervis and Jonathan walked off into the distance, tetch's bag Jingles with the stolen Jewels placed in it
