Gotham City State Courthouse: 1983, 2 pm

The judge sat at the table ready to announce the verdict. Harvey Dent stood and gaped: he hoped that this freak of a clown would be executed. Merienne Stewart was worried, thinking that everything was in vain. Whether or not Harley sat and was silent, she was not going to protect Arthur, she lied too much and only wanted to be with the Joker.

Arthur Fleck sat silently behind his podium, handcuffed and looking at the floor. This is the last trial and now everything will be decided. He didn't even take it seriously that he was now dressed like the Joker.
