Synopsis: - Sasha Bordeaux is extremely frustrated with her job: her employer does not seem to want her around and often disappears for the entire night. She is also very aware that Wayne is not as stupid as he seems. When she accompanies him to Commissioner James Gordon's retirement do, the round of speeches get somewhat boring, but the party is livened up when criminal "Mangles" Manchester arrives to settle a score with Gordon. Of course, with the hall being full of police, he doesn't get very far. When Sasha tackles Bruce Wayne to get him down and out of the line of possible fire, she realizes that her employer is solid muscle. He then disappears to the bathroom after knocking a table over.
- Irritated, she follows him and berates him through a cubicle door. However, when the door finally opens, she is confronted by Two-Face, who holds a gun to her head and escorts her to the room where the retirement part is taking place. Here he says it's time to say goodbye to James Gordon and, pushing Sasha, away, takes out his lucky coin. Sasha, pushed through some curtains, ends up in the arms of Batman, who, for the time being, watches silently. Two-Face flips his coin and takes the podium...where he gives a speech about the friendship he once had with Gordon and how much the man means to Gotham City. His "good" side, Harvey Dent, clearly in control, Two-Face hugs Gordon and allows himself to be led away by the police force.
- Sasha then meets back up with Wayne, who said that he had accidentally made his way to the ladies' bathroom. She doesn't believe him, but decides not to say anything... yet.
