The Right Side of Wrong

Bottle Episode (But Not A 'Bottle Episode'): Part 1

Veronica's POV:

Harley, Ivy, Mom & I stand at the edge of the bridge.

Ivy: "Lena actually did it. She bottled the damn city."

Mom: "Never underestimate a middle-aged woman wth a clear goal."

Harley angrily growls before approaching a nearby car and smashing it with her bat.

Me: "Oh, boy. She's rage-smashing.-*to Ivy*-You or me?"

Ivy: "I got her."

Ivy approaches Harley as she finishes smashing the car.

Ivy: "Hey, babe? Uh, just checking in. How--How are you feeling?"

Harley: "Must. Kill. Lena!"

Ivy: "I-I know. I know I want that, too. But I think you need to check yourself before you wreck another car."

Harley: "She murdered Frank! Basically murdered my dad, tried to murder Ronnie and me, probably gonna murder everyone in Metropolis, and she tried to drive a wedge between us and murder our relationship."

Ivy: "Ah, she tried. She did not succeed, right? Nothing can break us up, hon. I mean, can you imagine the meltdown on the internet if we did? I mean--But that's not happening because when we have a problem, we work through it."

Harley: "Just promise you will never hold a grudge against me that you keep inside for decades till it festers long enough that you bottle up an entire city for revenge."

Ivy: "I mean, that is an incredibly specific situation. But sure, yes. I will not do that."

Harley: "You either, Ronnie."

Me: "Well, we came pretty close back when you dated Joker, but seeing as those were the worst 8 years of my life, I don't see it happening again anytime soon, or ever."

Ivy: "We'll stop Lena the only way we know how. Together."

Mom: "And me too."

Ivy: "Wow. I really forgot she was here. You know? Sure. The classic quartet of Harley, Ivy, Ronnie, & Sharon."

Mom: "Hooray!"

I chuckle as Harley rolls her eyes.

Harley: "Oh, my God."

Ivy: "Ok. We need to find a way onto the Skull Ship, but Lena destroyed the only transporter."

Harley: "Can't we just, like, fly up there?"

Ivy: "Ok, first we gotta figure out where it is."

Mom: "Hmm. A ship like that must have advanced cloaking technology. We need someone inside to deactivate it."

Harley: "How the hell did you know that?"

Mom: "You never wanna listen to me. But I know things. I know youse two were in a relationship rut, and that's why you moved to Metropolis."

Harley: "How did you...?"

Ivy: "Holy shit."

Mom: "And I know, right now, I wish that guy, 24, was real, because 24 can do anything."

Harley: "Immediately unhelpful again."

Ivy: "You're talking about Kiefer Sutherland, right?"
