Synopsis for "The Family Circles, Part 3: Jump Shot"
Under attack on the cruise ship Moonlighter, Harley Quinn comes out swinging a dinner cart, but is caught in the Sportsmaster's deadly hockey puck snare. As it tightens, Goatboy rams the Clock King and takes them both overboard.
As Harley is quickly suffocating, her dad Nick draws his illegal firearm and shoots Sportmaster in the shoulder, and will continue firing into his face unless he releases Quinn. Outside, Harley's mom Sharon throws the remaining mercenaries over the rail, and they all cry out for life preservers.
Harley, released from the snare, joins her mom outside and reluctantly saves the mercenaries, and not just her friend Goatboy as she intended. Having saved the passengers and their belongings, Harley is interviewed by Channel 3 news, and finally receives her dessert tray from the ship's Captain.
Outside, Sportmaster cannot explain the illegal firearm that Harley planted on him, and he and Clock King teleport without a destination in mind. They materialize in an occupied woman's bathroom, and momentarily express their glee until the shower curtain is pulled back and they are faced by a naked Power Girl.
In Brooklyn, Red Tool is working on a blade-gun when future Batwoman Devani Kage finds him. She has a year before being drawn back into the future, and wants to team up with Red Tool in order to properly judge Harley Quinn.
On Coney Island, Harley and her mom reminisce about childhood days. Her parents had problems but they worked them out, and Harley is more like her parents than she knows. They visited to reconnect and tell Harley that they love her and are proud of her. Big Tony drops them off at their hotel, and Harley sheds a tear as she has been moved by their visit.
While Tony and Harley plan Sy Borgman's surprise party, Madison Berkowitz watches coldly from her car, and calls in a hit on Harley Quinn - bring on the "Unconquerable 25".

Regaining consciousness, Harley Quinn looks at Jenna's bill again. It's still 3 million dollars, and she flies into a rage and comes out swinging a sledge-hammer, while Jenna defends with a chainsaw. And chainsaw beats hammer.
Jenna has planted bombs in the walls - Harley has seven days to pay. The Clock King didn't pay - and now he's in the hospital. Harley realizes that she's in deep with Jenna, and goes on a costumed, drive through fast food crime wave; finally returning to the Joker's hideaway.
Joker and his henchmen are unknowingly mocking Harley's costumed robberies, and Harley storms out. "Mistah J" is very suspicious of her, finding her toolbelt.
