The Dark Knight Scene 2 Summary

Big Harvey

  • Alfred finds Bruce in an underground concrete chamber (serving as his headquarters while his mansion gets rebuilt) where he is sewing up an injury.
  • Bruce and Alfred discuss Rachel, and her purported boot-knocking with the new DA, Harvey Dent. Alfred warns Bruce about his limits, though Bruce maintains that the Batman can't afford to have any.
  • Over in the courthouse, Harvey Dent and Rachel cross-examine a mob goon who tries to shoot him mid-sentence. The gun jams, and Harvey knocks him flat with one mighty blow. Behold, the power of justice!
  • Jim Gordon meets Harvey at the DA's office. Harvey insists on meeting the Batman, and generally has his cranky pants on about Gordon's Special Crimes Unit.
  • They make a passing joke about a nickname that GPD has for Harvey, but don't tell us what it is. (We bet you can guess it, though.)
