That's the one nice thing you can say about Gotham -- it always surprises you.

[the surprises are rarely good but it's never boring, she's right about that.]

[neverthehero]

[She snorts a bit at that.]

I'm sure some people would prefer it surprised them a little less.

[signalized]

Most of us probably would -- but Gotham has always had a mind of her own.

[neverthehero]

So does Hell's Kitchen.

[It seems to be getting crazier by the day, and as much as Jessica wants to stay out of it, the more and more she doesn't think she can.]

I wonder what it is that draws in people like this.

[and she holds up the flash drive in her hand.]

[signalized]

I'm not sure, there are a lot of things that drive people to crime. Inequality, unhappiness, some people are simply wired the wrong way...

[he takes the hard drive from her.]

It shouldn't take me more than a couple of days to be able to hack this.

[neverthehero]

[Jessica knows all the risk factors.]

I think my question was more how they all manage to wind up in the same place. Whether it's Gotham or Hell's Kitchen, it's like they're all drawn like a magnet.

[signalized]

I don't know the answer to that --- maybe there's a draw to these places that can't be explained with logic or science.

[neverthehero]

Maybe.

[She shakes her head as she leans back in the seat, and then she looks back at him with a smirk.]

But I have to say, Mr. Wayne, you do know how to show a girl a good time.

[signalized]

[he smirks in return at that.]

I'd hope so, I would hate to think I'm losing my touch.

[neverthehero]

Where would the next stop normally be on the Bruce Wayne night out?

[signalized]

This is usually around the time I slip into something more comfortable and roam around the streets to see what trouble I can find.

[this is his idea of a joke; he means this is usually the time where he stops being bruce wayne and starts being batman]

[neverthehero]

[Jessica raises an eyebrow at that, before she shakes her head.]

This is about the time I drink myself to sleep.

[signalized]

Then I will leave you to that. I'll let you know what I find.

[neverthehero]

[She nods as the driver pulls up at her apartment, and she offers him a small smile.]

Merry Christmas, Bruce.

[signalized]

Merry Christmas, Jessica.
