Synopsis: - The Incinerator remembers the events in of his childhood and his service in Afghanistan. Batman and the Monolith track him down to a mosque where he has tied a priest to bomb. Meanwhile, Alice tells Tilt about her upcoming date with Detective Ruiz. She tells Tilt that she wants to test herself for HIV and convinces her to do the same. Batman finds he can’t defuse the bomb. The Monolith ignites the bomb, using his body to shield Batman and the priest. He is seemingly destroyed. However, he comes to life again after Batman leaves. It had been a ruse. Batman discovers the Monolith is still alive when they both track down the Incinerator. After getting tested, the doctor tells Alice and Tilt that he has bad news.
