I still have no idea what the hell the Crows even are. They're the vaguest organization I've ever seen. Are they some private security corporation hired by business owners and other wealthy private citizens? Are they a paramilitary mercenary group under contract by Gotham itself to act as a secondary police force? Or are they brought in on a federal level by the US government to help cities with problematic crime? Who gives them the authority to prosecute drug offenders and give shoot-on-sight orders? And if they are multinational, does that mean that Jacob is just in charge of the Gotham branch, or has he been acting as CEO to a large multinational corporation totally off-screen in addition to handling day-to-day operations in Gotham?
Almost tempted to go back and watch the reviews and find out how many times people have been kidnapped from the crow's car park... I swear it's three episodes in a row now 🤣🤣
Right? I can't even remember how many times it's been. They keep getting attacked in their own parking lot over and over, and still there's still no security anywhere. It's as if they WANT criminals to keep jumping them on their own property.
@@thoriasunlimited4053 well we know Jacob has been. Also Julia and Sophie. It's such lazy writing ✍. Like the Crows with all their high tech gear wouldn't be able to detect someone breaking into their vehicles. Do they leave them unlocked? And that looks like a parking garage, there would be a guard or two at the main entrance probably checking ID's and making sure no bad guys are coming in since the previous encounters in cars. Definitely very lazy writing. The entire show is a joke and all the writers are woke SJW activists. And then they probably wonder why the ratings are in the toilet. Get woke go broke.
So based on your description and how you were explaining the episode, I actually thought Mary was going to..... A. blackmail Jacob into keeping her illegal clinic by threatening him with his drug taking Or B. Use the drug to somehow manipulate Jacob’s memory into forgetting he knew about Mary’s Clinic C. Jacob was going to be made that he only wanted to make the clinic legal only for the sole purpose of sneaking in the drug he’s taking, thus giving Mary the moral high ground because Jacob is a man. Now it just seems like Mary will find out, and somehow Mary will get what she wants as Jacob is a drug addict, so any moral ground Jacob holds is going to be gone since he’s doing something illegal.
So, they retconned snakebite to be a trip down memory lane and a good ending instead of giving the injected an adrenaline high like the guy said in episode 4? Also, this could be used as a therapeutic drug or something a doctor uses to pacify a patient.
@@joeblow1830 Yeah, Luke's dad being killed by the crows instead of a rogue crow and Ryan being fairly convicted of possessing drugs are among the worst offenders.
Here's an idea for Mary: finish your training, get a medical licence and open up a legal clinic; where you don't have to worry about getting arrested and thrown in jail for twenty years.
Thanks Thorias for the sacrifice of your sanity to bring us your recaps. Never seen an episode of the dumpster fire that batwoman is, and never will...but I’ll never miss your reviews!
As stated, community centers statistically reduce crime by 10%. Therefore, building ten community centers means zero crime. (Source: 1,000+ hours of Simcity 4.)
@@patrickmcguire7896 Hard to forget that, luke is at best a bumbling sidekick and ethan whatever would rather tell people about his coming out story than help save someone. Getting real sick of being called a piece of shit by egotistical bigots
I'm always mystified as to why Ryan would even care one bit about Kate. I'm also mystified as to how no one figures out who she is. Although, in the batsuit, she looks like a really pudgy 8-year-old to me. I think they never show her running because she can't run. She's less athletic than Ruby Rose and that is saying something. The level of discontinuity within this show tells me there isn't a roundtable discussion (which there usually is) before an episode is filmed. I think they just make it up on the fly. They film pages that were written (maybe not even actually written down, just thought up) seconds before.
I feel like at least Sophie and Jacob should. They know Mary and Luke work with batwoman, the new batwoman is black and looks exactly like Mary's new roommate ryan, and has the same voice.
Someone got attacked in the Crows parking lot AGAIN?! They literally did that in the last episode! And the one before that! And in episode 2...of both seasons. It's worse than the Crows never bringing back up! Also, any bets that Black Mask's daughter was the girl from the first season who was killing social media influencers? The one that Kate Kane left tied up and alone in an abandoned building? Alice showed up and cut her face off.
I have to say, after having watched many of your review videos, you are doing the lords work! Saving me at least from having to watch any of these shows, but making them entertaining to learn about, is beyond incredible. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I gave up on CW shows after the 30th repeat of Arrow's origin story in the first couple years of that show. Again, thank you so much for doing this, even though I can see your soul withering away as you watch each one of these horrific pieces of entertainment.
Hey Thorias, good work per usual! Just a heads up UA-cam has been siphoning off likes from certain content providers. In some cases tens of thousands of them. Found out from MxR plays. If you check your analytics you can determine if they're doing it to you as well. As always: FOR THE ALGORITHM!
They’re trying to make Jacob and the crows the falling villains in this season. They’re literally trying to RWBY Volume 8 general ironwood Jacob Kane and the crows.😞😞😞
I once told my friend all about Batwoman. I told him about how awful the characters are, how badly they disgraced Batman's world, how terrible the heavy-handed messages are, and everything else wrong with the show. Then I told him to watch JLongBone's videos and you know what he said? I wasn't accurate enough.
So glad I waited to watch this video at home, you made me laugh after a looong day. Though if Batwhamen is really wearing on you, take a break, EFAP only just let out their episode 4 video and I don't mind waiting if it keeps you sane.
I'm still mad they incorporated Black Mask into this shit show. I really like him and he doesn't deserve to be tainted by this headache-inducing trash. Anyways, thank you for suffering through these. I always watch your videos during my lunch break at work and they instantly improve my mood! :)
@@q94141 Yeah, I guess I’m just disappointed they didn’t do more with him, but hopefully the upcoming episodes will utilize him better. But then again, maybe I’m just expecting too much at this point. Writing a compelling villain doesn’t seem to be their thing anyway lol
1. @ 19:53- 20:00, I feel the same way. Considering that this show regularly preaches the incredibly toxic message that it's perfectly acceptable to break the law in a multitude of heinous ways if you can find a way to justify it somehow (i.e. Kate in Season 1 letting a teenage terrorist get away with nearly murdering hundreds of people and attempting to extort millions of dollars from the city simply because the teen terrorist in question was lesbian), showing it to at- risk kids could guide them even further towards a life of crime. 2. Mary the spoiled brat and all- around horrible, horrible person: "I'm gonna keep running my highly illegal medical practice, and the only way you can stop me is if you arrest me!" Me, if I were Jacob at that moment: "Alrighty. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law..."
Remind me again why we're suppose to care about Angelic? She might not have committed the murder but she's still guilty of being not only a drug dealer but she also helped make the damn drug in the first place. It can't be her personality is it because of her relationship with Ryan that has not only been toxic but only lasted two episodes. It's not like their aren't enough lesbians in this show hell I bet the only reason they brought in that new girl from the community center is to set her up as Ryan love interest for season 3 so i ask again why should i care about Angelic?
They really have no idea how to write relationships. Ryan/Angelique are super dysfunctional at best. They don't trust each other, Angelique cheats on Ryan the second they have a fight, which Ryan just seems to be okay with for some reason, etc. These two are terrible for each other. There is ZERO reason to root for them. That said, the writers seem to be moving toward a Ryan/Sophie thing, so whatever...
@@thoriasunlimited4053 i miss the old days when characters actually had character. And writing had real strength to it, and not just shallow bitches who only virtue signal and read off twitter. Not hopefull that will ever return.
And the only "characterization" in this show is "lesbian," "victim." Mary and luke have ZERO characterization at all. Only there to spout some internet search then theyre done for the week.
@@thoriasunlimited4053 The question is will they kill Angelique off? The writers clearly want to replace her as Ryan's love interest, but a basic breakup would be anticlimactic plus if she's killed by Black Mask or New Kate that would definitely and some tension (lord knows the show could use some). Only hole in that theory is Angelique is gay and the writers made a big deal about the whole "Bury your gay's" troupe they were animate about not doing, but they "Writers" have no self respect so I can buy then going the hypocrite route. If they do kill her I'll be upset, not because I like her, I'll be upset because of all the characters they could've killed off why can't it be Alice or Mary?
I agree with everything you said,this abomination the CW calls a show is one of the worst things I ever seen in my entire life,and when the show gets destroyed and cancelled it will be the day we all celebrate by singing Big Time Rush Elevator.
Mary: *_(nonsensical screeching all-about-me rant)_* Peter Quill: WHAT is your GOAL here?! To get EVERYBODY to hate you?!............... ‘Cuz it’s workin’. (Strides away dismissively)

Apparently, it's supposed to reduce crime by 10% and increase the graduation rate by 15% according to whatever website the writers copied and pasted those statistics from.
Being fair, from what I know on Black Mask, killing his own goons isn't anything new. The Batman saw him killing his own top henchmen and then just handing the responsibility over to someone else, valid reason or not. "You, you're my new number one."
Why would Angelique now agree to go into witness protection? Wasn't the reason she confessed because Black Mask threaten Ryan's life? The shooters of the Comish were killed but the threat on Ryan's life is still there. Did Angelique and the writers forget this?
why is mary? Making her so omnipotent yet so useless must have been the dumbest thing those writers have ever done. Wait a Minute: Could it be, they simply forgot she is super rich? The Writers?
Per prisoner at $150 per day just one peisoner with one full year is $54,750. That's insane! Imagine how rich someone would be at those rates. C'mon be realistic on costs.
Sir, we have it on security footage, you were attacked and injected with something, we need to get it out of your system.... Boss: NOOO!!! I LIKE IT...I NEED MORE....(new character Craker Jacked is born )
When I see woke writers producing stuff like the scene with Mary and Jacob and expecting the audience to side with her (and knowing many in their target audience WILL), it legitimately makes me feel despair. In the words of King Theoden "What can [we] do against such reckless hate?"
Superman and Supergirl can fool people with a pair of glasses, so I don't think Ryan and Kate had much to worry about when it comes to secret identities.
I was about to say thats still dumb, then i remembered that van outsped the their batmobile. So yeah, that thing could probably go mach speed for all we know.
If the writers knew a damn thing about Batman, right after Mary had her tirade Leslie Thompkins would have walked in the door and given her a dressing down of epic proportions. Its not like Mary's idea of a free clinic hasn't been a thing for decades in Batman or anything!
Mary is basically the anti Leslie she never worked to get where she is and she isn't doing this for the right reasons she's just doing it to feel morally superior to everyone, Which is the targeted sjw audience this show is trying to cater to, people who think they don't need to work hard for anything and think they know everything and refuse to listen to reason
Too bad the writers aren't competent enough or willing to make a woman seem in the wrong by justifying the suit having weaknesses because of all the alterations that have been done to it causing structural instabilities. Still want to know how this impervious suit was altered.
Oof, I can only imagine what the PowerPuff Girls live-action show will do to you when it airs. It hasn't even aired and already it seems like it's off to a shitty start.
Luckily, I never watched the PowerPuff Girls, so it won't bother me if they ruin it. Though I expect seeing Chloe Bennet reduced to doing junk like this isn't going to be much fun.
Superheroes are traditionally about upholding and aiding law and order... Does anyone notice that with characters like Alice (a multiple murderer) becoming a main character, Ryan and her drug dealing girlfriend, Mary and her illegal clinic, and The Crows constantly breaching the law... that the show seems to glorify crime and normalize contempt for the law? This show’s morals has more in common with Breaking Bad than a Batman series.

Right? I can't even remember how many times it's been. They keep getting attacked in their own parking lot over and over, and still there's still no security anywhere. It's as if they WANT criminals to keep jumping them on their own property.
@@thoriasunlimited4053 It has taken Crime Alley's place as the most dangerous location in Gotham.
@@thoriasunlimited4053 well we know Jacob has been. Also Julia and Sophie. It's such lazy writing ✍. Like the Crows with all their high tech gear wouldn't be able to detect someone breaking into their vehicles. Do they leave them unlocked? And that looks like a parking garage, there would be a guard or two at the main entrance probably checking ID's and making sure no bad guys are coming in since the previous encounters in cars. Definitely very lazy writing. The entire show is a joke and all the writers are woke SJW activists. And then they probably wonder why the ratings are in the toilet. Get woke go broke.
3:45 Perhaps Black Mask should set up a snake bite lab in the Crows parking lot ...they will never be discovered.
Jacob: What’d ya bring me
Alice wants Enigma to forgot she was on Batwoman while Jacob shoots up on snakebyte to erase his presence!
Who would even cut the budget if it’s being funded by donations it’s not like their a government agency
So based on your description and how you were explaining the episode, I actually thought Mary was going to.....
A. blackmail Jacob into keeping her illegal clinic by threatening him with his drug taking
Or
B. Use the drug to somehow manipulate Jacob’s memory into forgetting he knew about Mary’s Clinic
C. Jacob was going to be made that he only wanted to make the clinic legal only for the sole purpose of sneaking in the drug he’s taking, thus giving Mary the moral high ground because Jacob is a man.
Now it just seems like Mary will find out, and somehow Mary will get what she wants as Jacob is a drug addict, so any moral ground Jacob holds is going to be gone since he’s doing something illegal.
I want the show to stay on the air just to keep these reviews coming. Kind of like the glassmaker who hopes the vandals don't get caught.
I laughed during the parking lot scenes! I’m like “HOW!?!” This show is so stupid that I just laugh 😂
This episode of BatWhamen Hellish Review proves 1 thing unequivocally.
Rupert Giles should absolutely be quoted more than he usually is. 😂
This god forsaken plot is all over the place! From lesbian pirates to kryptonite brain cancer and terrible sjw political messages!
The only person that feels good about how bad this show has gotten is Ruby Rose.
She can genuinely say - "Batwoman was better when I was in it.."
That's not exactly saying much.
*mindblown*
@@donovanblackwelder4301 No, it's not a high bar.. But I'm genuinely surprised just how bad it's got.
@@Gainn touché
So, they retconned snakebite to be a trip down memory lane and a good ending instead of giving the injected an adrenaline high like the guy said in episode 4? Also, this could be used as a therapeutic drug or something a doctor uses to pacify a patient.
Oh, did stuff the writers try to establish get retconned between episodes inexplicably again? Whats new?
@@joeblow1830 Yeah, Luke's dad being killed by the crows instead of a rogue crow and Ryan being fairly convicted of possessing drugs are among the worst offenders.
lol. I missed that retcon. Good work noticing that one. These writers use retcons as a staple tool in every story.
It should be physically impossible for a show to be this bad. Alas...
If I was Jacob I would’ve told Mary to change your last name because she would no longer be my daughter
Technically they already have different last names since he's not her biological father.
@@swslwatts Nah Mary and her Mom got their last names changed. Hamilton is the middle name.
If I was Jacob I would just arrest her.
Even though I don't watch batwoman. I love the reviews for the mental breakdowns.
Here's an idea for Mary: finish your training, get a medical licence and open up a legal clinic; where you don't have to worry about getting arrested and thrown in jail for twenty years.
As maddening as it is, on this show, she'll probably never have to worry about any of that stuff.
Thanks Thorias for the sacrifice of your sanity to bring us your recaps.
Never seen an episode of the dumpster fire that batwoman is, and never will...but I’ll never miss your reviews!
I honestly feel utterly sorry for Jacob, his kids don't give a break and do the writers
Him and Luke are punished for being competent, normal, human beings in this strange world of psychos and nutjobs.
This man deserves the purple heart
For all the pain and suffering he has endured for us.
As stated, community centers statistically reduce crime by 10%. Therefore, building ten community centers means zero crime. (Source: 1,000+ hours of Simcity 4.)
The show writers make every woman in it braindead but apparently i am the misogynist for not liking it...
Don't forget racist and homophobic
@@patrickmcguire7896 Hard to forget that, luke is at best a bumbling sidekick and ethan whatever would rather tell people about his coming out story than help save someone.
Getting real sick of being called a piece of shit by egotistical bigots
I'm always mystified as to why Ryan would even care one bit about Kate. I'm also mystified as to how no one figures out who she is. Although, in the batsuit, she looks like a really pudgy 8-year-old to me. I think they never show her running because she can't run. She's less athletic than Ruby Rose and that is saying something. The level of discontinuity within this show tells me there isn't a roundtable discussion (which there usually is) before an episode is filmed. I think they just make it up on the fly. They film pages that were written (maybe not even actually written down, just thought up) seconds before.
I feel like at least Sophie and Jacob should. They know Mary and Luke work with batwoman, the new batwoman is black and looks exactly like Mary's new roommate ryan, and has the same voice.
Thank you for sharing this awesome video, you keep making these hilarious videos and I'll be glad to watch them
I didn't know I was a closet sadist until I got addicted to watching you suffer thru watching Batwoman.
"The more you know" 🌈
I'm sure the ultimate villain behind everything is going to be Scarecrow. That would explain all the Straw-Man bad guys in this series.
27:27 So much rage in one spot, it collapses into a singularity.
God willing, it will drag this show out of the universe.
Someone got attacked in the Crows parking lot AGAIN?! They literally did that in the last episode! And the one before that! And in episode 2...of both seasons. It's worse than the Crows never bringing back up!
Also, any bets that Black Mask's daughter was the girl from the first season who was killing social media influencers? The one that Kate Kane left tied up and alone in an abandoned building? Alice showed up and cut her face off.
I have to say, after having watched many of your review videos, you are doing the lords work! Saving me at least from having to watch any of these shows, but making them entertaining to learn about, is beyond incredible. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I gave up on CW shows after the 30th repeat of Arrow's origin story in the first couple years of that show. Again, thank you so much for doing this, even though I can see your soul withering away as you watch each one of these horrific pieces of entertainment.
Hey Thorias, good work per usual! Just a heads up UA-cam has been siphoning off likes from certain content providers. In some cases tens of thousands of them. Found out from MxR plays. If you check your analytics you can determine if they're doing it to you as well. As always: FOR THE ALGORITHM!
These reviews are worth every 1/2 penny that they're spending on this show. I can't believe I'm actually hoping for a 3rd season.
They’re trying to make Jacob and the crows the falling villains in this season.
They’re literally trying to RWBY Volume 8 general ironwood Jacob Kane and the crows.😞😞😞
That show tumbled violently down hill after Monty Oum died.
Yeah Jacob is getting Ironwooded and I really don’t care.
This might be my favorite review yet. Thanks for the laughs 🔥
I once told my friend all about Batwoman. I told him about how awful the characters are, how badly they disgraced Batman's world, how terrible the heavy-handed messages are, and everything else wrong with the show. Then I told him to watch JLongBone's videos and you know what he said?
I wasn't accurate enough.
So glad I waited to watch this video at home, you made me laugh after a looong day. Though if Batwhamen is really wearing on you, take a break, EFAP only just let out their episode 4 video and I don't mind waiting if it keeps you sane.
That face and looking down head at the intro is a classic now, vintage thorias
I'm still mad they incorporated Black Mask into this shit show. I really like him and he doesn't deserve to be tainted by this headache-inducing trash. Anyways, thank you for suffering through these. I always watch your videos during my lunch break at work and they instantly improve my mood! :)
@@q94141 Yeah, I guess I’m just disappointed they didn’t do more with him, but hopefully the upcoming episodes will utilize him better. But then again, maybe I’m just expecting too much at this point. Writing a compelling villain doesn’t seem to be their thing anyway lol
Hey, at least after Mary in this episode, we can genuinely say that there have been worse things than Kate on this show. :D
7:44 I was thinking they might have called him Megavolt, but then I realized that Disney might have gone after them if they did.
1. @ 19:53- 20:00, I feel the same way. Considering that this show regularly preaches the incredibly toxic message that it's perfectly acceptable to break the law in a multitude of heinous ways if you can find a way to justify it somehow (i.e. Kate in Season 1 letting a teenage terrorist get away with nearly murdering hundreds of people and attempting to extort millions of dollars from the city simply because the teen terrorist in question was lesbian), showing it to at- risk kids could guide them even further towards a life of crime.
2. Mary the spoiled brat and all- around horrible, horrible person: "I'm gonna keep running my highly illegal medical practice, and the only way you can stop me is if you arrest me!"
Me, if I were Jacob at that moment: "Alrighty. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law..."
Your reviews just keep on getting better and better..
Remind me again why we're suppose to care about Angelic? She might not have committed the murder but she's still guilty of being not only a drug dealer but she also helped make the damn drug in the first place. It can't be her personality is it because of her relationship with Ryan that has not only been toxic but only lasted two episodes. It's not like their aren't enough lesbians in this show hell I bet the only reason they brought in that new girl from the community center is to set her up as Ryan love interest for season 3 so i ask again why should i care about Angelic?
Lol forgot about that dumb bint. Thorias forgot to mention it lol
They really have no idea how to write relationships. Ryan/Angelique are super dysfunctional at best. They don't trust each other, Angelique cheats on Ryan the second they have a fight, which Ryan just seems to be okay with for some reason, etc. These two are terrible for each other. There is ZERO reason to root for them.
That said, the writers seem to be moving toward a Ryan/Sophie thing, so whatever...
@@thoriasunlimited4053 i miss the old days when characters actually had character. And writing had real strength to it, and not just shallow bitches who only virtue signal and read off twitter. Not hopefull that will ever return.
And the only "characterization" in this show is "lesbian," "victim." Mary and luke have ZERO characterization at all. Only there to spout some internet search then theyre done for the week.
@@thoriasunlimited4053 The question is will they kill Angelique off? The writers clearly want to replace her as Ryan's love interest, but a basic breakup would be anticlimactic plus if she's killed by Black Mask or New Kate that would definitely and some tension
(lord knows the show could use some). Only hole in that theory is Angelique is gay and the writers made a big deal about the whole "Bury your gay's" troupe they were animate about not doing, but they "Writers" have no self respect so I can buy then going the hypocrite route.
If they do kill her I'll be upset, not because I like her, I'll be upset because of all the characters they could've killed off why can't it be Alice or Mary?
I agree with everything you said,this abomination the CW calls a show is one of the worst things I ever seen in my entire life,and when the show gets destroyed and cancelled it will be the day we all celebrate by singing Big Time Rush Elevator.
Don’t worry that the season is almost over. You always have season 3 to look forward to.
*somewhere out there the joker could be heard laughing*
"Let's go another episode of batwoman" says no one lol
I know this is painful, but on the bright side, it's been renewed for a third season!
Mary: *_(nonsensical screeching all-about-me rant)_*
Peter Quill: WHAT is your GOAL here?! To get EVERYBODY to hate you?!............... ‘Cuz it’s workin’. (Strides away dismissively)

I like money more than community centers too. Hell, I don't even have a clue what a community center is or what's it supposed to do.
Apparently, it's supposed to reduce crime by 10% and increase the graduation rate by 15% according to whatever website the writers copied and pasted those statistics from.
I feel bad, Thorias is suffering watching this garbage and we are all laughing at him.
laughing *with* him *at* the show. Keep laughing brah, it's good for you.
@@ninjainnameonly-6902 I guess your right.
Being fair, from what I know on Black Mask, killing his own goons isn't anything new. The Batman saw him killing his own top henchmen and then just handing the responsibility over to someone else, valid reason or not.
"You, you're my new number one."
Your rants always put a smile in my face
Why would Angelique now agree to go into witness protection? Wasn't the reason she confessed because Black Mask threaten Ryan's life? The shooters of the Comish were killed but the threat on Ryan's life is still there. Did Angelique and the writers forget this?
It's not that they forgot. It's that they just never cared about the story being consistent.
why is mary?
Making her so omnipotent yet so useless must have been the dumbest thing those writers have ever done.
Wait a Minute: Could it be, they simply forgot she is super rich? The Writers?
Never watched an episode and have been more entertained by these reviews of the show then the show could ever live up to
You're doing God's work buddy, stay strong.
This vile show can't be cancelled soon enough. I know season 3 is slated to be the last season this episode should be the series finale.
Nooo, it needs another 10 seasons.
This level of stupidity from the writers must be kept in one place so they do not infect anything else.
“Fuck this show”. Best line of the video
Per prisoner at $150 per day just one peisoner with one full year is $54,750. That's insane! Imagine how rich someone would be at those rates. C'mon be realistic on costs.
Me thinks Thorias needs a hug... a big one
The show is good only for its reviews:)
I haven't watched any of season two. I do watch your reviews, which are entertaining.
Sir, we have it on security footage, you were attacked and injected with something, we need to get it out of your system....
Boss: NOOO!!! I LIKE IT...I NEED MORE....(new character Craker Jacked is born )
Luke finally got to be the hero. That has to mean...something right?
I couldn't help but notice your pain...it runs deep SHARE WITH US!!!
When I see woke writers producing stuff like the scene with Mary and Jacob and expecting the audience to side with her (and knowing many in their target audience WILL), it legitimately makes me feel despair. In the words of King Theoden "What can [we] do against such reckless hate?"
Superman and Supergirl can fool people with a pair of glasses, so I don't think Ryan and Kate had much to worry about when it comes to secret identities.
I mean does anyone lock their cars in Gotham? I mean, Sophie's sister got the jump on her the last episode, now this?
You missed the fact that Luke has access to the van. That's how he got there so fast.
I was about to say thats still dumb, then i remembered that van outsped the their batmobile. So yeah, that thing could probably go mach speed for all we know.
🤣🤣
If the writers knew a damn thing about Batman, right after Mary had her tirade Leslie Thompkins would have walked in the door and given her a dressing down of epic proportions.
Its not like Mary's idea of a free clinic hasn't been a thing for decades in Batman or anything!
Mary is basically the anti Leslie she never worked to get where she is and she isn't doing this for the right reasons she's just doing it to feel morally superior to everyone,
Which is the targeted sjw audience this show is trying to cater to, people who think they don't need to work hard for anything and think they know everything and refuse to listen to reason
Too bad the writers aren't competent enough or willing to make a woman seem in the wrong by justifying the suit having weaknesses because of all the alterations that have been done to it causing structural instabilities. Still want to know how this impervious suit was altered.

Sorry, but I am very much enjoying your pain! You make me laugh and also make me grateful that I am NOT watching Batwoman.
Awesome video. I agree !
Superheroes are traditionally about upholding and aiding law and order...
Does anyone notice that with characters like Alice (a multiple murderer) becoming a main character, Ryan and her drug dealing girlfriend, Mary and her illegal clinic, and The Crows constantly breaching the law... that the show seems to glorify crime and normalize contempt for the law? This show’s morals has more in common with Breaking Bad than a Batman series.
Yeah... in all the wrong ways.
