When they get into the building and get to the plant the lights are turned on by a group of Gotham's elite. Ivy shoots some thorns grabs the plant and both Ivy and Harley exit the way they came in. Harley screwed up and thought the Botanical Society Party was tomorrow. As they scale down the building Harley reassures her that none of these hoity-toity types have the guts to fallow them.

Batman them makes his move to stop the girls. They fight and in a panic Harley tosses the plant at Batman's head. This enrages Ivy who attacks Harley allowing Batman to capture both of them.

At the asylum Harley tries to cheer up Ivy. Ivy can only think of ways to kill Harley. In the showers Harley continues to try and cheer Ivy up. She even gives her a playful snap on the butt with a towel. Ivy snaps and attacks Harley and starts banging her head on the floor.

Harley and Ivy are placed into their cells that are across the hall from each other. The front of their cells are not bars but a clear window. Harley taps on her cell to get Ivy's attention.
