Synopsis for "Anything You Say..."

Lt. James Gordon attends Holly Shancoe's funeral. His partner Sutton reveals her widower Geoff is drinking. Gordon sees Batman has also come, and he guesses that Batman pursues the criminals of Gotham so relentlessly because they once took something from him.

The Joker is being transferred when he steals a guard's pen and uses it to stab him in the neck. He takes control of the armored car. Batman tries to stop him, but the Joker drives them straight to court because he's "having the time of our lives."

His lawyer makes an insanity plea on the Joker's behalf, enraging him. During proceedings, the Joker manages to throw a peanut the judge's water, which (since he's allergic) kills him.
