At Wayne Manor, Lucius Fox comes up from the "batcave" looking for Alfred and Bruce announcing that he's finally fixed the computer. He sees the den in disarray.

Bruce has a bag over his head and is being dragged to a cell. Galavan removes the bag and tells him why he is being punished. Father Creel anoints Bruce with holy water and says he will die at midnight. His death will release the Wayne family of their sin.

At garbage dump, Tabitha is still looking for Alfred. Alfred throws himself into a freezer. After Tabitha and the goons go past, he is going to get out, but a load of garbage is dumped on the freezer.

Tabitha tells Galavan she couldn't find Alfred. Galavan is disappointed. Silver walks in and tells him she has a cold and can't be at the ceremony later.

Nygma is listening to the whole conversation. After Barnes leaves, Nygma uses a riddle to tell her where to go to find Jim.

In Bruce's cell, Silver is still trying to get Bruce to talk. Finally he relents and they talk about animals. His favorite is the owl. She talks about swimming with the dolphins and says they can read minds. Bruce tells her they use sonar to detect things, but they can't read minds.
