Summary
Dick has shot Roy’s bow a few times. Roy’s current bow is a beast with a 105 pound draw weight. Dick allows himself a small smile, remembering how delighted Roy had been when he got it, deliberately two pounds heavier than Oliver’s. (“Suck it, old man!” Roy had crowed.) Dick had been able to use it, but at that weight his accuracy had been terrible.
Still, those 105 pounds now seem lighter than a feather pillow, compared to the pull of his trigger.
“Officer Grayson, please wait here. Your union rep will be here soon, and she has requested that we don’t start without her.”
***
Police Officer Grayson kills the Joker while on duty.

Summary
Roy Haly was a happy man. Very rarely seen without a smile, this particular Tuesday the man’s simper was particularly large. He’d ridden into Four Corners, making a pit stop on the way to "someplace else." The next scheme, the next deal, the next opportunity to get enough money to pay off his debt to Darry Carter, buying his freedom from the man forever. That was all he was looking for. Once he discovered how to get the obsessive man off his back he could travel freely around the country without dodging his one time partner at every turn. He was smiling bigger because he’d found it sooner than he thought. Vin Tanner.
It had been nearly a year since he’d seen the boy but it was still him. Darry would be awfully happy to get him back. He’d pay a mighty big price too. He’d never ask another favor from Happy Roy Haly.

Summary
Abby and Cate’s faked gay cowboy photo of Tony was supposed to be a joke – a tit for tat reaction for DiNozzo discovering a wet T-shirt photo of a younger Caitlin Todd. But when the faked photo is accidentally transmitted to the whole of the DC office the consequences are catastrophic.

If someone had sent a written article stating that DiNuzto was gay, even as a joke, then most people seemed to understand that it was libel and against the law, yet the manipulation of multimedia images seemed to be viewed as harmless fun. -

Summary
Then: The year is 2013. Jason Todd is alive, fourteen years old, and about to follow Sheila Haywood, his birth mother, into the hands of the Joker. All he wants is to save her life.
Now: The year is 2018. Jason Todd was dead. But now he's a nineteen year old vigilante about to take down the latest C-Lister rogue. Unfortunately for him, its a rogue that specialises in time-travel technology. And what starts as an easy takedown...ends as a time travelling phenomenon.
The two Jasons swap places.
