On the next therapy session everything's going normal, Harleen and The Joker talk and talk for a while.

The Joker: *leaning in* "Tell me something darling...have you ever had a bad day?"

*THE PAST*

That same day Wendy died, J is on his way to the bar meanwhile he has to walk through the streets then stops and looks at a poster on the wall, the poster shows a man.

The poster reads:
"Harvey Dent for District Attorney"

J then rips the poster and throws it on the floor as he believes that
Harvey Dent was lying to
Gotham City about keeping it safe, it was bullshit; Gotham City had no hope.

So at the bar, J is with two of his "friends", Richmond and Marv, who are gangsters.

J: *depressed* "I get kicked out of the stand-up bar, get played by some bastards, and my friend died"

Marv: "Damn, your life sucks, but we will take care of you"

Richmond: "We need your help getting through that chemical plant you used to work at"

J: "The chemical plant?"

Richmond: "Yeah, they say your ex-boss has a lot of money there, we figured that you can sneak us in, you can also get money for yourself"

J: "I don't know, it's too risky"

Richmond: *taking out a briefcase* "Nonsense, look, to protect your identity you'll be wearing this"

Richmond opens the briefcase, it is revealed that what's inside is a large domed red helmet and a red cape.

J: "That's the Red Hood's mask! Are you guys the Red Hood?"

The Red Hood was known in
Gotham City for being a criminal.

Marv: "Grow up, there's no Red Hood, it's not real, it can be any normal bastard wearing the helmet and cape, so what do you say?"

Richmond: "Think of it, if we get that money, we can be as rich as a crime lord from Hell's Kitchen, New York, what's his name? I think it's
Michael Corleone"

J: "Hm...if I do it, I'll have a proper life, and bury Wendy in luxury"

Richmond: "Exactly, you're starting to get it"

J: "Let's do it"
