Batman The Animated Series: Under The Red Hood

Father vs Son/Epilogue

Gotham City

At a bridge in Gotham City police are seen barricading it off from the public as the Joker is heard laughing, the man himself is seen standing on a large truck.

Commissioner Gordon: I don't know what that maniac's up to, but nobody make a move until I give the order.

The officer tells his troops as the Joker laughs his head off, then a helicopter from above places a light over his body and he bows then he looks down into the truck, seeing the Black Mask and some of the Red Hood's men all tied up together inside.

Joker: I'm a little teapot, short and stout, here is my handle and here is my spout.

The Joker sings as he pours gasoline inside the truck before throwing the entire canister inside, spilling it across the floor in the truck.

Black Mask: This wasn't part of the damn deal, you freak get me outta here right now!

Joker: I thought you'd enjoy seeing some old faces, after all most of these guys used to work for you.

The Joker says as he lights a lighter, only for someone else to speak up.

Police Officer: Who's that get a light on him!

The Joker turns around and looks up to see the Red Hood standing on top of the bridge, two spotlights focused on him as the Joker smiles.

Commissioner Gordon: Up there!

Joker: Heeeeey look at you Mr. Hood or do you prefer Red y'know, I used to wear an outfit like that but mine was more flashy maître D than motorcycle fetish, you kids today.

The Joker holds up his lighter, seeing it gone out and tries to light it again.

Joker: I'm sorry, could you hold on I was just in the middle of setting fire to your gang.

Red Hood: Go ahead you think I care if that scum dies?

Joker: Don't know I just wanted your attention.

Red Hood: You've always had my attention, but what I really wanted was an audience with you.

The Joker pauses.

Joker: I'm sorry, that seems to imply that you organized this little clambay.

Red Hood: I did, sure, I had lots of plans, but the endgame was to get the Black Mask so desperate that he'd cut a deal, he was the only one with the connections to get into Arkham and get you out.

Black Mask: *inside the truck* You can't......trust.....anybody.

The Joker looks down at the Black Mask before looking back up at the Red Hood.

Joker: So, I've been bamboozled oh, my.

Red Hood: I wouldn't undersell it, It took a lot of work to bring about our reunion.

Joker: Reunion have we met before?

Red Hood: Yes, we have.

Joker: Well, here's to warm memories.

The Joker says, igniting his lighter and tossing it into the truck as the people inside scream in terror, but before any serious fire could start, Batman in the Batwing flies in and drops some fire extinguishing foam onto the truck, dosing them in it. The Red Hood tilts his head up and glares at the Batwing as it turns back around to grab the Joker, the Red Hood, however, grabs the cable line and cuts it, grabbing the Joker as they both fall into the river below. The Joker tries to swim away from the Red Hood, only to be grabbed again by him and pulled away. Above the water, Batman tries to find the two in his jet but to no avail, then the voice of the Red Hood sounds in the Batwing.
