The CW’s Batwoman season 3 had its midseason premiere on November 24, and showed something new happening to Gotham City. We were already getting a new version of Poison Ivy, after Nicole Kang’s Mary Hamilton became the new nature seductress/ supervillain.
However, that wasn’t enough as The CW series had another bombshell in store. Spoilers ahead from Season 3, episode 9 – Pick Your Poison.
What happens in the episode
The season was mainly about Ryan Wilder (Javicia Leslie) finding out that her birth family was alive and meeting them. She finds out that they also have dark secrets hidden within. Her half-brother Marquis Jet (Nick Creegan) talks about something that happened in his childhood. He had crossed paths with the Joker, and it caused him to exhibit violent behaviour.
In fact, it got so out of control that their mother Jada Jet (Robin Givens) considered putting him in cryo sleep. Marquis even blackmailed Ryan, who is the current CEO of Wayne Enterprises to make him the new CEO. He announced his ownership on live television, and later dyes his hair purple, making audiences think that he will be the new Joker.
