Obviously this version of Harvey Dent is quite a bit older than Bruce Wayne in the show, so clearly they won't be depicted as being school friends. But, could Dent be this "new friend" that Bruce meets when he returns to school? It's unclear why an assistant DA would be hanging around a school, (my guess is he's visiting Bruce because he knew his parents) but it would serve the purpose of forming a connection between he and Bruce for later down the line at least. Of course, that friend may not be Dent at all, but it seems strange that such a major new character from Batman lore wouldn't be mentioned anywhere else in the synopsis. Also, could the guy running the fight club be "The Mask" of the title? And could that Mask actually be Black Mask? Okay, bit of s stretch, but ya never know!
