A bearded Bruce Wayne enters the board room of Wayne Enterprises. Everyone was shocked to find out he was alive and well after all those years. Fox reintroduces Wayne as the President of Wayne Enterprises. Wayne sees a new face on the board, who introduces himself as Dr. Edward Reese, new head of the Applied Sciences division at Wayne Tech. Fox presided over the meetings top agenda was the recent heist in Reese's division. Reese reported among the items stolen are a germ formula being developed, revolutionary semi-conductor and some old low tech equipment that was scheduled for auctioning. Henry Bailey, the head of Wayne shipping, adds Zucco’s men have been beating up employees which are bringing down our shipping production.
After the meeting, Bruce approaches Lucius on why Reese was on the board. Fox tells him that he was appointed by Roland Daggett, senior board member and construction magnate to the division shortly before Daggett mysteriously disappears. Daggett once wanted to take over Wayne Enterprises until Fox assumed office. Reese was a brilliant inventor who dabbles also in genetics and computer engineering and who has a knack for solving puzzles and a prominent problem-solver in their division. It was this experience that majority
of the board approved Reese’s ascension after Daggett’s disappearance.
Lucius also shared the latest headline with Bruce: “Masked Freak Terrorizes Bludhaven Gangland”
“Are you in the suit again?” Lucius asks. “Of course not I was in Italy, with you-know-who?” and Bruce winks. Lucius asks if he is going to investigate again the matter of the heist. Bruce just shrugs his shoulders and says, “We’ll find out, won’t we?” Lucius simply smiles back and walks back to his office while Bruce goes down to his Lamborghini.

Edward Reese is seen working on his table. Close-up reveals that he is simply finishing up a crossword puzzle when his cellphone rings. It was Commissioner Gordon asking Reese if he (Gordon) can see him later. Reese agrees, puts down the phone and goes to his experiment table. The phone rings again, and when Reese answers, there was a fright in his face. He begins to look around and re-inspects his lab, shifting some of the piles of rubbles to look for something. He finds it; a small canister. He picks it up, looks around, and answers back “Yes it is done.” He brings the canister near his working table and continues to finish the puzzle. At the background is a whiteboard with a large map of Gotham City, with several markings on it. Besides the whiteboard are clippings of the sightings of Batman.
