S1 E12

Confessional - Jason

"Today is the day of the costume party. I altered the costume Helena got for me a bit, hope she doesn't mind. Anyways, I am going to totally steal the costume contest prize away from Cass this year. It is my time to shine, baby!"

*Cue intro video*

*The scene opens with a shot of Wayne manor at night, the windows lit up. It cuts inside to the ballroom where there are tables full of food and drinks spread out, along with a DJ in the corner. A small stage is next to the DJ. Selina is talking with Bruce, both of them in their respective Catwoman and Batman costumes. Helena is in her Huntress costume, a crossbow in hand as she talks with Cassandra in her Batgirl suit by the stage, Duke sitting in his Signal costume next to them on his phone. Terry is watching the DJ set up, in a simplified red and black version of Bruce's suit. Damian walks into the room in his Robin costume and Helena smiles, leaning into Cassandra and Duke.*

"Let the games begin."

"What did you do, Hel?"

"It isn't a matter of what I did, it is a matter of what I didn't do."

"Oh, geez."

*Damian makes his way over to Helena, Cassandra, and Duke, a scowl on his masked face.*

"I look ridiculous." 

"Ridiculously adorable!"

"What. The. Hell! Damian al Ghul Wayne! Why are you wearing my costume?!"

*All eyes turned to the entrance of the ballroom where Tim stood in a costume eerily similar to Damian's, arms crossed over his chest, eyes narrowed in annoyance. He stalked over to Damian, stopping in front of him. He poked him in the chest.*

"Go change! This is my costume."

"Actually, Timothy, it is my costume. You go change."

"I'm older."

"I'm superior."

"Yeah, okay, sure thing. Whatever you say."

"...so you will change then?"

"No! You have to change!"

"Helena showed me this costume first. It is mine to wear."

*Tim looked ready to scream.*

"Boy, boys. You both look ado-"

"What the shit is going on here? Why do you two look like knock off versions of me?"

*The group turned to see Jason standing a few feet away, also in a Robin costume, this time with green shorts on instead of pants.*

"Uh, Jason? Why-"

"If you ask why I am wearing the same costume as you, I will-"

"-don't you have pants?"

"Oh. Simple. I want to show off my gorgeous thighs. I mean, these beauties could crush a watermelon between them."

"Fair eno-"

"I see everyone wants to be like big brother Dickie."

*Jason rolls his eyes as everyone looks to see Dick standing in a costume practically identical to Jason's.*

"This is ridiculous! All of you go change, Helena showed me this costume first."

"Yeah, but I made it the most original."

"My thighs look the best in it."

"I'm the oldest."

"Boys, boys. Please. What the costume really needs is a feminine touch."

"Oh fuck no."

*Stephanie walked into the room wearing her own version of the Robin costume, a smirk on her face. She walked up to Cass and kissed her on the cheek.*

"How did you even find out about the family costume ideas?"

"Helena accidentally sent me a link to the plans. I liked the Robin costume and didn't think anyone in your family would go for it."

Confessional - Helena

"I sent the link on purpose. I knew Steph would fall in love with the Robin costume. That was just too amusing of an opportunity to pass up. And I was right, look at all the drama it is causing. Now it is too late for any of them to change costumes without ruining the family theme and they all know better than to do that."

*Scene shifts later into the party where the event is in full swing, the room full of people in costumes mingling. Some were dancing to the music while others were talking on the edges of the room. Tim and Conner were standing in the corner with a blonde girl dressed in red pants and a black shirt with a 'W' emblem on her shirt, gauntlets on her wrists.*

"Well, Tim, I think you all great."

"Of course you would say that, Cassie."

"What? It is the truth. You all make wonderful Robins."

"Ugh, you are no help. I thought you'd be on my side."

"What? I'm just telling you the truth."

*Scene shifts to Damian and Jon Kent standing by the windows.*

"They stole my costume and my mantle."

"Damian, it is a made up mantle. This is just a party."

"Whose side are you on, Kent?"

"Yours. Always."

*Camera dips down to their hands. Their pinkies are entwined.*

*The scene moves on to Cassandra, Stephanie, and a girl with purple and blue hair.*

"Steph, was this your original costume?"

"Actually, Harper, it wasn't. I was going to go as Spoiler, a purple clad vigilante."

"Nice."

"Right? I thought so too, Cass."

"Alright, folks, we are going to move on to the costume contest portion of the party. Throughout the event, we asked you all to place your votes on who you thought had the best costume and those votes have now been tallied. The results are in. The winner of this years annual costume party is...Terry, for his Batman Beyond costume!"

"Yay! I won, mommy!"

"That you did, sweetie."

"What's my prize?"

"There is no physical prize, you just get the joy of winning."

"Oh. That is stupid."

"I know right?"

"Jason! Don't encourage that language in him."

"What? All he said was stupid. And he is right, we should have a prize for him. He doesn't even understand the joy he should have for beating Cass, who has won every single year that I can remember."

"That is because my costumes are superior."

"Yeah, yeah. I think you rig the system."

"Don't need to do that to beat you, Jason."

"You wanna go, Cass?"

"Please, everyone knows I can take you easily."

"Cassandra! Jason! Enough. We have guests. Behave yourselves."

"So you are saying if we didn't have guests we could fight?"

"Loophole."

*Cass and Jason high five and Selina pinches the bridge of her nose.*

"I need a shot."

Confessional - Duke

"I doubt the rest of the footage of the party can be used due to the content of it so let me recap it for you with two truths and a lie; a group of people got too drunk and began playing strip poker without the poker part, a fight broke out and a Molotov cocktail was thrown out the window, setting the lawn on fire, and Dick and Jason are now on speaking terms again after playing a round of never have I ever with a bunch of other people, but are going after Tim together. I think it is pretty obvious which one is the lie."
