Off With Her Head Recap

One of the best things we think that Batwoman is doing is really showing the horrors and torment that Beth went through to become Alice. It takes a lot to turn a sibling that you know and love and turn them into the villain that Alice is. Tonight's all new episode continued to show us a bit of the history that Beth experienced. On top of that, we had Mouse and Alice in a very rough position with the fear toxin. Just what the outcome will be from this? Let's find out together, here's our recap:
- Cartwright Delivered: Alice has left a knocked out and messed up Cartwright at the steps of the Batwoman signal. Kate brings him down and takes him to her bar where she invites her father to visit him. She tempers his reaction by offering her dad a drink and makes him promise not to kill Cartwright. We then jump to Alice who has found Mouse and released him from his fear toxin prison. We learn that the house they are in is "The Queen's House". This turns out to be Cartwright's mother. At this stage in time, Beth has fully committed to her Alice persona.
- A Mouse Turned: After sitting in the fear toxin chair for a long while, Mouse is freed by Alice but he turns on her. All that fear toxin made him believe that Alice was what he feared most. He attacked her and put her into the chair and started filling her with the fear toxin.
- A Lead on a Killer: At Mary's clinic, Luke meets up with Mary who has been seeking a lead on Beth's killer. Mad Dog, a local man who needed help from Mary, gives a lead that Mary takes Luke to. They head off to the junk yard. We cut to Cartwright who is leveraging his freedom over giving the location of where Alice is being tortured. If she doesn't get an adrenaline shot soon, whatever the toxin's effect will become permanent. In the flashbacks, we see how Mommy Dearest would beat and torment the girl. The old lady wanted to abuse her because Alice reminded her of who she was. Cartwright claims it was her who made Alice the monster. In order to get his final revenge, Cartwright slashes his own neck as not to give up Alice's location.
- Fear Toxin Accelerates: Luke and Mary find the gun that killed Beth in the trunk of a car that the lead at the clinic gave. Just then, Mary gets a call from Batwoman and she counsels her on how to close Cartwright's neck. He is saved rather ... unorthodox-like. We then check in on Alice who is continuing to lose her mind. This insight into her mind shows us her fears of Mommy Dearest, of being abandoned and not being enough for her family to find her. Kate cuts a deal with Cartwright for the location and she sends her dad to check out if the lead is true. Jacob arrives in time to stop Alice from killing herself. For the first time in her life, Alice is saved and found by her father.
- Mommy Dearest: The torturous truth comes out. Mommy Dearest, Cartwright's mother wanted Alice and Beth's mother's face. He kept her head in a refrigerator. When Alice finally learned the truth to the head and the earrings, she sets the old woman on fire and her death is hailed as an accident in a house fire. Alice's plan, however, does seem to come to fruition. Kate can't handle the stories that Cartright is telling her. He is the one person who has done all of this to Kate. She ends up killing Cartwright in the heat of passion.
In the final wrap up moments, Alice and Kate share a drink outside the bar. Alice takes a sip and says "We'll need more of this with the night we've got ahead". Kate asks why, to which Alice replies, "bodies don't bury themselves". The episode ends on Kate who has now killed someone and the Kane family reunited in this dark scene.

Grinning From Ear to Ear Recap
3/8/2020 5:00 pm
Batwoman is back after just one week off! These second half of the season interruptions are common and we think we'll have a few more before the first season is over. That said, tonight fans were treated to an all new episode of Batwoman! Batwoman and Luke are on the trail of a villain targeting social media mavens. Sophie gets an unexpected visit from her mother, and Mary offers her expertise to assist Kate. Jacob Kane is approached to make good on a favor, while Alice focuses on her plans for retribution. Here's what stood out to us:
- Batwoman's Girlfriend: Both Kate and Sophie are smitten with the new romance they are sharing. Luke however points out that Batwoman can't have a girlfriend. If anyone ever found out that Batwoman cared for someone they would become a target. It's the reason Batman pushed people away. We then jump to Alice who is reading her obituary. She is not pleased with the comments but her priority is to find the killer, Mouse's dad. A lawyer heads to Crows headquarters and threatens Jacob with the favor he had in Jail. Batwoman and Sophie meet and Batwoman tries to break it off but can't, they are interrupted by Sophie's mom arriving.
- Social Media Hunter: The masked attacker strikes a social media influencer. Her motives are to slash the faces of other social media influences and make their face look like hers. Kate heads to check up on Mary to make sure she isn't going to be targeted. Mary, knowing that Kate is Batwoman offers to help Kate with her investigation but without revealing she knows Kate is Batwoman. Sophie's mom talks about how she doesn't support Batwoman because of her sexuality. Sophie is devastated that she can't be herself with her mom. Batwoman recruits Sophie to go and interview the plastic surgeon who's clients seem to be targeted. They discover the identity of the attacker after the doctor remembers treating a girl with the same injuries she is inflicting. Batwoman discovers the attacker who has tied up her mother. She cuts her neck to keep Batwoman from following her.
- Hunting a Killer: Batwoman has the hit list the attacker is using. The facial recognition software isn't working though because these people all get new and different faces through surgery. Batwoman heads to Mary to get an ID. Both Sophie and Batwoman arrive too late and Batwoman is forced to take Sophie with her to escape the Crows. Alice is at Mary's clinic where she is stealing medical supplies. Alice walks out right in front of Mary but not before hinting that she knows who Batwoman is and thus isn't as trusted by Kate as Kate trusts Alice (Which is bogus). Sophie and Kate catch up to the killer in a make up factory. She is lowering her victim into the acid she uses to make the make up. Batwoman is able to grapple and save her before she falls in.
- Sophie and Batwoman Pause Their Relationship: You can't date a masked super hero. If you do you always wear a mask too. That's the conclusion that Batwoman and Sophie come to. They pause their relationship so Sophie can think and figure a few things out. Alice then comes upon the tied-up killer. She offers her revenge against the doctor that restored her face. In order to do it though, she needs something from her, her face. Alice uses the face to walk right into her former capture's office and knocks him out!
In the final wrap up moments, Jacob reaches out to Sophie so she can help him hunt down a traitor in the Crows. Sophie tells her mom she is gay. It does not go well and her mom walks out on her claiming she is disappointed. Mary heads to check up on Kate. She tells Kate that she hopes she'll trust her as much as Mary trusted Kate when she returned to Gotham. Alice, in her lair, confronts her former tormentor. She wants to know where Mouse is and he begins to laugh! He is using Scarecrow's fear toxin to torment Mouse.
