Thomas Wayne, dressed in a suit and leather shoes, with the demeanor of an upper-class person, was urinating at the moment. Turning his head, he met Arthur's solemn gaze and casually asked, "What's the matter, buddy?"
Arthur seemed a bit awkward, "I don't know what to say..."
To be honest, this situation was a bit awkward. Thomas Wayne regarded him as a supporter or fan, passing by Arthur, he casually asked, "Are you here to ask for my autograph or something else?"
"No, I'm Arthur Fleck, and Penny Fleck is my mother." Arthur didn't beat around the bush and straightforwardly revealed his identity.
Thomas Wayne had an impression of both names. While washing his hands, he stopped and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant. "Oh my god, the person who came to my house yesterday was you?"
Arthur naturally didn't deny it. "Yes, I apologize for intruding, but my mother told me everything, and I must talk to you!"
"Listen!" Thomas Wayne was a bit impatient. "I'm not your father. What's wrong with you?"
"Look at both of us. I think you are." Arthur didn't believe Alfred's words and insisted on his and his mother's version.
Thomas Wayne turned around, wiping his hands, and said, "Impossible because you were adopted, and I've never had anything with your adoptive mother."
Frowning, Arthur said, "I wasn't adopted!"
"What do you want, money? Are you here to extort me?" In Thomas Wayne's eyes, Arthur was probably here to blackmail him.
But Arthur kept explaining that he wasn't adopted. Thomas Wayne, somewhat helpless, said, "It seems she never told you."
Under Arthur's questioning, Thomas Wayne told him that his mother had adopted a child, which was Arthur, while she was working for him. Also, during that period, Arthur's mother was committed to Arkham Asylum due to illness.
However, Arthur couldn't accept this explanation. He became somewhat agitated and waved his hands, "Why are you saying these things? I don't need you to lie to me! I know it's strange, and I didn't mean to upset you, but I just don't understand why everyone is so rude. Why are you like this? I don't want anything from you, maybe just a little warmth or a hug, Dad! Can't you even show a bit of respect? What's wrong with people like you? Your words are insulting my mother!"
Facing Arthur's questioning, Thomas Wayne calmly said, "Your mother is crazy."
Arthur burst into laughter instantly, not because he found it amusing, but because he had a breakdown. However, Thomas Wayne didn't know about Arthur's condition and felt more annoyed, "Do you find this funny?"
Arthur laughed uncontrollably, "Dad, it's me, don't be like this..."
Before he could finish his words, Thomas Wayne without hesitation punched him, tilting Arthur's head backward.
"If you touch my son again, I'll kill you!"
Leaving this warning, the well-dressed Thomas Wayne turned and walked away.
Seeing this, some spectators suddenly understood why so many Gotham citizens outside the theater spontaneously organized to resist Thomas Wayne.
He really wasn't a likable guy.
"Oh my god, why would Batman's father be like this? Yes, Arthur does have some issues, even if the truth is as he says, but he shouldn't act like this, he is too ruthless!"
"Hehe, rich people are all like this, always high and mighty, can't stand us, poor folks. They never think they have a problem; they just think anyone against them is anti-rich. In my opinion, they're all a bunch of jerks!"
"The reason why Thomas Wayne is so angry, even resorting to violence, is because Arthur found his way to his house. Arthur shouldn't have approached his son; that's bound to make parents worry!"
"But Arthur didn't do anything to his son. Don't forget, his son is Batman!"
"Come on, Batman is a future thing. Bruce Wayne in the video, I could strangle him with one hand. I think Thomas is not wrong; Arthur, like his mother, is a lunatic!"
"You guys only blame lunatics and mentally ill people, but have you ever thought about why they become lunatics in the first place?"
Viewers debated endlessly, and the players in the Eternal Space were somewhat silent. This video was beyond their expectations. It showed Arthur's somewhat mad and uncontrollable side, while also revealing another side of Batman's father.
Bruce Wayne broke the silence first. Glancing at Arthur, who occasionally laughed on the screen, his dark expression revealed, he said in a deep voice, "I apologize on his behalf. He got a bit too intense."
Peter Parker shook his head, "I feel... Mr. Thomas Wayne doesn't seem to be an easy person to deal with. Of course, when you think about it, you can understand. He cares a lot about his family and worries about encountering someone who can harm his son."
Arthur looked at them and, like the on-screen version of himself, uncontrollably burst into laughter, "Hahaha, I don't know why this game chose me. Hahaha... It's really not fun at all. Everyone must think my mother and I are like Jokers! No, we are Jokers!"
"Don't say that, Mr. Arthur..." Peter Parker waved his hand. They were now sensitive to the term 'Joker.'
And no matter what, the mother and son in the video were worthy of sympathy, while Thomas Wayne and the butler Alfred's attitudes were far from kind.
As Arthur questioned, why couldn't there be more politeness and understanding?
Thomas Wayne's attitude and tone when explaining his mother's situation indeed had a high-and-mighty flavor, including his butler Alfred.
From the first moment he saw Arthur, he had already prejudged that he wasn't a good person.
What made him make such a judgment?
Could it be the cheap clothes on Arthur?
In the video, Arthur returned home, and took off his shirt, revealing his thin and somewhat hunched body. It should have been some time since he went to find Thomas Wayne, but at this moment, he still couldn't control himself, laughing uncontrollably.
While laughing, he swept everything out of the refrigerator, arranged a narrow, dark, and cold space, then crawled in and forcefully closed the refrigerator door.
