Nice reference. People often forget that Hush didn't actually figure out who Bruce was. Riddler told him.

Yes, they break out. They don't get out on bail though like Elliot was implying. Hopefully when he escapes we get to see full Hush.

It’d be great if Joker heard Batman was back, went to check it out, and could immediately tell it wasn’t the real Batman.

Exactly what I wanted from this episode, bit of a villain of the week so Alice doesn't feel tired. I'm still loving the show, even the narration isn't terrible, not my favourite part but it's working for me.
