On Gotham's East End, "Greg", whose face we still can't see, picks up another sex worker, Mindy. She reacts badly to seeing his face, and he kills her. Selina, after talking to Holly, has decided to become the protector of the East End. She beaks into the GCPD and makes copies of the police reports on the dead sex workers. A man coming into an alley finds "Greg", covered in blood, sitting in a car with Mindy's corpse and yells for help. Selina arrives to find the car, the corpse, and "Greg's" bloody clothing, abandoned. She hides when the cops come and listens to the worker's story.
