Courtroom Testimony Begins in Joker Sequel

Judge Herman Rothwax Mr. Dent. You may call your next witness.

Mr. Dent The state calls Gary Puddles. Bailiff, will you please Gary Puddles to the stand?

Arthur Fleck Gary. Go get em.

[''To Gary walking ahead to stand'']

Bailiff Raise your right hand. Do you solemnly swear that the testimony you're about to give is the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help you God?

[''Hands out bible and Gary places hand on it'']

Gary Puddles I do.

Mr. Dent Good morning, Mr. Puddles. Thank you for being here. The person who you saw stab Randall Kleinmanhoffer to death, are they in the courtroom today?

Gary Puddles Yes.

Mr. Dent Can you point him out here to all of us? And... describe his clothing?

Gary Puddles He's sitting right here at this table. Wearing a red suit and clown make-up.

[''Points to Arthur Fleck'']

Mr. Dent May the record reflect the identification of the accused Your Honor?

Judge Herman Rothwax Yes, it will.

Mr. Dent Nothing further, Your Honor.

Judge Herman Rothwax Your witness, Mr. Fleck.

Arthur Fleck Mr. Puddles. Gary Puddles? Tell me, sir, is that your God-given name?

[''Gets up and starts walking'']

Gary Puddles Yes.

Arthur Fleck Really? Really? Your last name is Puddles? Why, it sounds like a... a joke!

[''Chortles'']

Gary Puddles Well, it's not.

Arthur Fleck You expect us to believe that your last name is Puddles? Puddles?!

Judge Herman Rothwax Mr. Fleck. Where is this going? As I said, I'm not going to let you turn my courtroom into a circus.

Arthur Fleck Okay. But with all due respect, Your Honor, don't you think it's a little late for that?

Judge Herman Rothwax Don't try my patience.

Arthur Fleck Okay, okay. Mr. Puddles, earlier this afternoon you testified that you saw me stab Mr. Kliman Manhoff in the neck a couple of times, correct?

Gary Puddles Kleimanhoffer. Yes, I saw you.

Arthur Fleck And what else did you see that day?

Gary Puddles You stabbing him in the eye, and bashing his head into the wall, many, many times.

Arthur Fleck Yes, but Randall was a bit of a bully, wasn't he?

Gary Puddles He didn't deserve to die.

Arthur Fleck I don't know. Never mind. Gary, did you catch my act on the Murray Franklin Show later that night?

Gary Puddles No, I didn't.

Arthur Fleck No? May I remind you that you are under oath?

Gary Puddles I was locked up at the police station. In an interview room. Cause they thought you might come and kill me. I was the only witness. They kept me there all night.

Arthur Fleck Isn't that convenient, Mr. Puddles? That you didn't see the show, you didn't see anything I had to say, I can't believe it!

[''Pinches and pulls out jacket'']

Judge Herman Rothwax Mr. Fleck.

Arthur Fleck Okay. When you were in my mama's apartment, God rest her soul, when as you say you saw me bash Mr. Klannonmen- whatever's- head into the wall, many, many times, did I seem crazy to you? Did I seem like a different person? Or was I the same old Joker that I always been?

[''Walks up to Gary and rest arms on witness box'']

Gary Puddles Arthur, don't do this to your self, it isn't you.

Arthur Fleck It isn't me? So you don't think this is me? Well, maybe... maybe... you don't know who I was really was.

Gary Puddles I never saw that side of you.

Arthur Fleck Well, maybe you weren't looking. Maybe no one was. Because nobody knew I existed! But look around, look at all these people! Everyone outside! These cameras! Who do you think they see, Mr. Puddles?!

[''Turns around''; ''Gestures to spectators'']

Gary Puddles Joker.

Arthur Fleck Oh, sweet child, what you have proven here today, is that you are no different that any of those people that underestimated me. From Franklin Murray to those goddamn fat, stupid guards at Arkham. They think that they can treat me like trash. But I will no longer allow you, or you, or you, or any of you to keep me down. I am free!

[''Turns to Gary and walks to him''; ''Scene cuts to Arkham guard Jackie watching on TV''; ''Raises both fists in air''; ''Spectators applaud and cheer'']

Gary Puddles Why are you doing this to me, Arthur?

Arthur Fleck What? Gary, I like you! I told you I wouldn't hurt and I didn't!

Gary Puddles Not hurt me? I couldn't go back to work. I still can't sleep and I'm scared all the time. I never used to be scared. I'm scared right now, here. With you in front of me. I couldn't do anything that day. I felt so small. I was reminded how powerless I really am.

Arthur Fleck You got a flair for the dramatic. You are really tugging at my heart strings, little Gary. No more questions, Your Honor.

Gary Puddles Do you know what that feels like, Arthur?

Arthur Fleck Fuck!

Gary Puddles You were the only one at work who never made fun of me! You were the only one that was nice to me!

Arthur Fleck I said, no more questions, Your Honor!

Judge Herman Rothwax Very well, Mr. Puddles. The court thanks you for your testimony. Please step down, you're excused.
