[The Joker is sitting on a rooftop somewhere, cackling.]

Dios mio! It's déjà vu all over again!

[He hops to his feet and claps his hands together, looking down at the NV.]

I wonder if tomorrow will be today once night falls away? All the ducks back in a row and round we go.

[He snickers at his own rhymes and grins slyly]

The big question is: Do the dead ducks come back too? I must find out. For SCIENCE.

[He brandishes a handgun meaningfully.]

Come one, come all, comrades. Let's give this city a wedgie and see what happens!

Leave the ducks alone! [Of course she would take this literally.]

[ace_of_knaves]

Pardon?

[motioned]

I said, leave the ducks alone!

[cheerhealer]

I hardly think killing ducks to see if they'll come back the next day is the best thing to do for science.

[ace_of_knaves]

My dear, it's just a figure of speech. I assure you I'm not about to kill any ducks.

[ace_of_knaves]

You people.

I don't mean literal ducks.

[cheerhealer]

Then what do you mean?

[youfartknocker]

Uh- yeah. Uh, huh huh huh. Let's, like, kill some ducks for science. Uh, huh huh huh. [ So on board for this. ]

[ace_of_knaves]

I mean let's create havoc and see what fixes itself.

[ace_of_knaves]

Not literal ducks.

How do you feel about robbery?

[youfartknocker]

Uh- it's pretty, like, cool, you know. Uh, huh huh huh.

[ace_of_knaves]

Then maybe you should go rob a couple joints. Leave the slaughter to the true masters.

[youfartknocker]

Uh- no way, butt-knocker. Uh, huh huh huh. I want, like, in on this action. Uh, huh huh huh.

[ace_of_knaves]

Uhuh...

You ever handle a gun, kid?

[youfartknocker]

Uhhh... [ Let him think. ] No. Uh, huh huh huh. But I had a chainsaw once.

Loops in space-time suggest that yes, what was alive at the start of the loop will be alive once it finishes the cycle. There's no real point in killing anything to prove a scientific fact.

[sonatasedge]

They do.

[ace_of_knaves]

I like to think that'd depend on how hard you yank on the loop.

[ace_of_knaves]

Oh, reeelllllyyyy?

Know this from experience?

[hisoldgirl]

Have you a theory on breaking the cycle then?

[ace_of_knaves]

A few!

But if all else fails I'll bet busting up the Core will break it.

[ace_of_knaves]

A chainsaw!? Well, your berries have nearly dropped.

What'd you use it for?

[athermercy]

For science?

[ace_of_knaves]

For science!

[motioned]

Then what are you going to do?
