dent stared him down from across the table . the asylum's visiting schedule had been altered due to a recent security breach , but harvey had still managed to keep his appointment with one of arkham's most infamous ex-employees ; good old JONATHAN CRANE . the uniform did not suit him ; it made him look smaller and frailer than he actually was . but even so , the good doctor looked down on him , believing himself to be superior to harvey ( to everyone really ) when it came to intellect and wisdom ㅤ─ ㅤ THE UNIVERSE HELD NO MYSTERIES TO MR . CRANE . and yet ... harvey chuckled . " yeah , well . " he leaned back in his chair , tilting his head at the inmate . " your cell is , what , six by eight feet ? " dent furrowed his brow , feigning pity . " guess that's as big as the picture's ever gonna get for you . " a cheeky grin spread across his face , the kind that should be put on campaign ads .
but , as happy as dent might have been to see his old buddy in chains , the fact remained that CRANE HAD RUINED MANY OF HIS CASES . from the first moment he had stepped into court ( to aid goons and murderers and mobsters avoid blackgate through insanity pleas ! ) the district attorney had pinned him down as POISONOUS . slowly the cockiness he wore so well faded away and gave place to something cold and serious ㅤ─ ㅤ inside his pocket , dent's silver coin felt awfully heavy .
ㅤㅤㅤㅤ" how many criminals walked free in the name of progress , crane ? how many lives were ruined ? "
