The scene follows Batman’s discovery that the Riddler killed the Gotham City police commissioner, leaving behind a note addressed to the Batman. “I thought he would be really insecure about this and he’d probably want to find some way to get into the [Riddler’s] mindset, like in ‘Manhunter’ or ‘Mindhunter’ — this idea of profiling somebody, so you can predict his next move,” the director told Variety.

The Joker is one of the first enemies Batman captures. “Almost our anniversary, isn’t it?” he tells Batman in the scene. Batman pushes Joker for reasons why Riddler is doing what he’s doing, and why he’s leaving notes for Batman. “Maybe he’s a fan of yours?

Or maybe he’s got a grudge against you, too. Maybe you’re the main course,” Joker says. “I think somewhere, deep down, you’re just terrified, because you’re not sure he’s wrong,” he continues.
