I didn't get there in time. There were four bodies, Dick.
[ He's been transported back to that night at the fair. Back when
there were so many bodies, he lost track, and when their blood was on his
claws, not hers. ]
[ Dick winces, closing his eyes as he thinks about that. He nods though Gar can't see him. ]
Stay in touch. If you need me, I'm there.
[ He wants to rush over there, to take charge and handle things, but he knows that this is between Gar and his mentor. Dick being there could make things worse, and he finally has the sense to recognize that. ]
[ But he won't, at least for a while. Gar has to help Daphne right
now, and beyond that, he has to deal with everything this just brought up
for him. After the fair, he'd spent a lot of time hiding in his room. At
least this time, he'll be focusing on someone else. ]

Listen, I'm trusting you on this. Okay?
[ It's hard for him to say but he knows he has to do this. For his sake, and for Gar's. ]
I'm going to start following the trail though. I'll be out there if you need me. Okay?

Yeah, you and me both.

I can follow that.
I have means that aren't just suit related.

I have to go, I can't--
It's over, I just have to get her inside.
