   Summary

   Tim knows that Bruce is alive, and now he has undeniable proof. But he should’ve listened, now Dick thinks he’s crazy. He’s sent to Arkham, where people leave worse off than when they enter.

   Or: Dick follows through on his threat to send Tim to Arkham and he attracts some unwanted attention resulting in the birth of Joker Junior.
