Could you please just give me a minute?

We got you, you son of a bitch.

Gor… You do like to play things pretty close to the chest.

We got him, Harvey.

Mr. Dent! How does it feel to be the biggest hero in Gotham?

No, I’m no hero. Gotham’s finest, they’re the heroes.

But you and your office have been working with the Batman all along.

No, but I trusted him to do the right thing.

All right, people, that’s enough. Let him be.

Thank you, detective.

I’ve got a date with a pretty upset girlfriend.

Stand away! All of you!

I don’t want anything for his Mob lawyer to use, you understand?

Back from the dead.

I, uh…

couldn’t risk my family’s safety.

What do we got?

Nothing. No matches on prints, DNA, dental.

Clothing is custom, no labels.

Nothing in his pockets but knives and lint.

No name.

No other alias. Go home, Gordon.

The clown’ll keep till morning. Go get some rest.

You’re gonna need it.

Tomorrow you take the big job.

You don’t have any say in the matter. Commissioner Gordon.

I’m sorry, I couldn’t risk your safety.

Look at these ugly bastards.

I don’t feel good. You’re a cop killer.

You’re lucky to be feeling anything below the neck.

Please! Step away from the bars!

My insides hurt.

Did Batman save you, Daddy?

Actually, this time…

I saved him.

Has he said anything yet?

Evening, commissioner.

Harvey Dent never made it home.

Of course not. What have you done with him?

Me?

I was right here.

Who did you leave him with?

Your people?

Assuming, of course, that they are still your people…

and not Maroni’s.

Does it depress you, commissionerto know just how alone you really are?

Does it make you feel responsible for Harvey Dent’s current predicament?

Where is he? What’s the time?

What difference does that make?

Well, depending on the time, he may be in one spot or several.

If we’re gonna play games.

I’m gonna need a cup of coffee.

Ah, the “good cop, bad cop” routine?

Not exactly.

Never start with the head. The victim gets all fuzzy. He can’t feel the next…

See?

You wanted me. Here I am.

I wanted to see what you’d do.

And you didn’t disappoint.

You let five people die.

Then you let Dent take your place.

Even to a guy like me, that’s cold. Where’s Dent?

Those Mob fools want you gone so they can get back to the way things were.

But I know the truth. There’s no going back. You’ve changed things.

Forever. Then why do you wanna kill me?

I don’t wanna kill you.

What would I do without you? Go back to ripping off Mob dealers? No, no.

No. No, you…

You complete me.

You’re garbage who kills for money. Don’t talk like one of them. You’re not.

Even if you’d like to be.

To them, you’re just a freak…

like me.

They need you right now…

but when they don’t…

they’ll cast you out like a leper.

You see, their morals, their code…

it’s a bad joke.

Dropped at the first sign of trouble.

They’re only as good as the world allows them to be. I’ll show you.

When the chips are down, these…

These civilized people…

they’ll eat each other.

See, I’m not a monster.

I’m just ahead of the curve.

Where’s Dent?

You have all these rules, and you think they’ll save you.

He’s in control. I have one rule.

Oh. Then that’s the rule you’ll have to break to know the truth.

Which is?

The only sensible way to live is without rules.

And tonight you’re gonna break your one rule.

I’m considering it.

There’s only minutes left, so you’ll have to play my game if you wanna save one of them.

You know, for a while there, I thought you really were Dent.

The way you threw yourself after her.

Look at you go.

Does Harvey know about you and his little bunny?

Where are they?!

Killing is making a choice.

Where are they?! Choose between one life or the other.

Your friend the district attorney, or his blushing bride-to-be.

You have nothing, nothing to threaten me with.

Nothing to do with all your strength.

Don’t worry, I’m gonna tell you where they are, both of them.

And that’s the point. You’ll have to choose.

He’s at 25052nd Street…

and she’s on Avenue X at Cicero.

Which one you going after? Rachel.

We’re getting Dent!

25052nd Street!

Hello?

Can anybody hear me?

Hello!

Rachel? Harvey.

Oh, Harvey, thank God. Are you okay?

I’m all right. I’m in a…

I’m in a warehouse. They got me wired to these oil drums.

I am too.

Harvey.

I want my phone call.

I want my phone call.

That’s nice.

How many of your friends have I killed?

I’m a 20-year manand I know the difference between punks who need a lesson in manners and the freaks like you who would just enjoy it.

And you killed six of my friends.

Six?

Please. My insides hurt.

I don’t really care. Back away.

The boss said he’d make the voices go away.

He said he’d go inside and replace them with bright lights…

like Christmas.

You’re out of your mind, pal. Back off.

Medic to the holding tank. Come on. Get the door open.

You guys, back off!

Listen, we don’t have a lot of time.

They told me that only one of us was gonna make it…

and that they were gonna let our friends choose.

Okay, Rachel.

It’s gonna be fine. It’s gonna be all right. They’re coming for you.

Listen to me. I’ll help you. Just talk me through what’s going on with you.

Can you find something, anything, sharp? I’m trying.

What’s…?

Harvey?

Harvey, what’s happening?

All available units, converge at 25052nd Street.

Do you wanna know why I use a knife?

Guns are too quick.

You can’t savor all the little emotions.

You see, in their last moments people show you who they really are.

So in a way, I knew your friends better than you ever did.

Would you like to know which of them were cowards?

What’s that?

He’s got some kind of a contusion. I know you’re gonna enjoy this.

I’m gonna have to try and enjoy it even more.

Take it easy. Take it easy. Drop the weapon now!

Sorry What do you want?

I just want my phone call.

What…? What’s happening?

Just talk to me, just for one second.

All right?

Is that a phone?

Mount the curb!

Harvey, just in case, I wanna tell you something, okay?

Don’t think like that. They’re coming.

I know they are, but I don’t want them to.

I don’t wanna live without you, and I do have an answer for you.

My answer is yes.

No! No! No!

Not me! Why are you coming for me?

No!

Rachel! Rachel!

Harvey. No! No! Rachel!

Okay.

Rachel!

No! No!

Harvey, it’s okay. It’s all right. Listen.

Somewh…

No, commissioner!

Rachel! No!
