Bruce Preventing John From Becoming the Joker (Every Single Choice) - The Enemy Within Episode 4

I included all the choices of Bruce trying to prevent John Doe from Becoming the Joker. There are multiple outcomes to this scene and over 200 choices and dialogues. I repeated this scene over 400 times to get every single dialogues and cross-check if they change according to our previous choices. I then edited all the recorded footage into one single piece of video. In overall, this video took me over 1 week of hard work. Hope you like and would appreciate your support!

I like how Joker’s and Harley’s roles are reversed in this game/universe. With Harley being the insane one who manipulates and Joker is the one who needed help even before the other came in their life and being manipulated into becoming insane.

@@DarksaberForce It's said she's suffering from some brain issue, which is why she needs the serum made from Riddler's blood. She actually has a well-balanced talk with Bruce at one point, apologizing for all the hyperaggressive behavior, justifying it by saying that she needs to be so hyperaggressive to make people listen, and mentions how much she appreciates that you're actually reasonable and respectful enough that she can ease up on the act for a couple minutes in private. If she didn't have to throw her lot in with a bunch of criminals to steal from the cops and Wayne Enterprises, in order to steal from a shadow criminal organization that runs human experimentation, in order to simply LIVE, she might be a far better person. She's definitely sadistic but we see shades of her softer side throughout the game, and it's obvious that she's not as one-note as she puts on.

In alot of ways he's just a guy, a guy with a mental illness, being manipulated by Harley Quinn. It gave me a sense that I could prevent a real evil, it seemingly worked but at the same time theres still a whole episode left for him to go off the deep end

[@theshadow4887]

Coley Durham And yet in this game you did.

[@MagSnapShots]

He inevitably becomes the Joker, but by giving him friendship and choosing the Vigilante path, the casualties are minimised (at most 15) and confined to the Agency, not Bruce's people or by-standers. By saying he is your friend, you'd feel there's a glimmer of hope in this Gotham.

[@MagSnapShots]

@Coley Durham Admittedly it's tough. But Tiffany Fox is a killer too, yet the game nudges you to forgive her and make her your protege. If you don't, she joins the Agency and likely help Waller become even more corrupt, kill more people. The choices in this game are very tricky. How do you avoid practicing double standards?

[@wingadept8793]

This is by far the most PIVOTAL moment in the game, as while we know his destiny is to become The Joker, we can at least ease some of the damage. Here we see a man literally thrown into a corner at arguably his lowest point. Harley, the love of his life on the verge of either, leaving him or getting killed, or both. As much as people love The Joker I love the direction Telltale went with this as I find this realistic. Here we see John on the verge of crumbling and as the player (Bruce) you are the only thing from preventing him from going off on the deep end. We've known that John has been a little...awkward, but he's not a bad person, but needs someone to help guide him down the right path. John and Bruce are similar to a degree, both of them have issues they are dealing with, only problem is Bruce has confidence, whereas John doesn't, and I think a large part of that played in the underrated part of Alfred looking after Bruce, whereas John really didn't have anyone. And granted if you decide to prevent him from becoming The Joker, it still shows you how cruel life can be, that no good deed ever goes unpunished. It's gonna be all the more painful when you know it's going to boil down to these two men fighting to the bitter end.

"I've just been sitting here in the dark until you came in" (6:21) Thats such a chilling delivery, and the way he says that implies that John recognizes the outsized influence that Bruce has had on him in their relationship even from the beginning, when he was just sitting in Arkham until Bruce came in and made things exciting. Even now he *knows* he's been shaped and is still being shaped by both Bruce and Batman, and he wants Bruce to recognize that

[@Fenrize]

Bruce brought light into his life (by choice ofc), but what I love is the detail of him literally turning on the light in this scene and it acts like a spotlight over John, the bodies and all the circus stuff. Kind of like with all the good Bruce gave, it also highlights how messed up John was and the things he lacked.

[@joshuaolsoncook]

I always wondered by Batman refused to kill the Joker despite all the horror and tragedy that psychopath created.... Now I know why. John was Bruce’s only friend and ironically, he still is. Had John not become the Joker, he could have been something different, maybe even a different version of Red Hood. Its always tragic to see how many friendships in fiction (Guts/Griffith of Berserk, Anakin/Obi Wan of Star Wars, and so forth) end up going sour because of the evils of someone much worse who corrupted them.

[@funa6968]

Well, if you're talking about the comics/movies/arkham games, it's not really because of this, since this version of the Joker's origin was made by telltale, Joker has many different origins, but most of the time Batman refuses to kill him because of his code, and not because of a past friendship

Juding by episode 5 and the end of season 4 (if you believe he is innocent) I really want to believe he is innocent. Yeah he killed in self-defense (judging by his claims) but he wasn't doing his hero training at the time. It's not easy to not kill when you got a bunch of agents shooting at you.

[@Nyzer_]

I don't think it was self-defense, but he just simply snapped from all the stress and from thinking he couldn't trust anyone amongst the "good guys". He was HORRIFIED at what happened when he came back to his senses. This is the most conflicted he ever acts at any point in the game. He'll betray you or Harley way easier than this. But he knows he lost control, he knows you'll realize it, and he knows you might turn against him for it... and that's just fucking terrifying to him.

[@rittis013]

[@phatxity9948]

@@Nyzer_ it was because as you see, agents always want to shoot first not asking first

[@Nyzer_]

​@@phatxity9948 There's a good chance it didn't happen like that. He's definitely lying to you in this scene. However, given the context, it's pretty clear that he is still mostly telling the truth: whatever it was the agents did to him, it was enough to scare him, to provoke him to attack. He likely does genuinely believe he'd be the one dead on the floor otherwise. He's giving you the lie not so much to deceive you, but to offer you the chance to accept the lie. To him, calling out the lie means calling out his intentions, not his actions. After all, he accepts your lies even when he knows they're lies, and doesn't even let on that he knows. He wants to trust you to do the same. He wants you to trust that he's lying to you for a good reason, that you understand it's a relatively insignificant lie.

I like the contrast with Harvey, who holds a little more to that identity if you approach him as Bruce, while falling in his villain persona of Two-Face if you confront him as Batman. --- John on the other hand? He can't simply be John, because John is a nobody with no memories, with nothing, maybe he forgot because he just despised that normal existence. That's why he is in so much need of attention and validation, and tha'ts why he likes Bruce: Because he is Batman. He will inevitably gravitate to that extreme personality, be it by becoming his sworn enemy, or by becoming Him.

[@thewazupdude90]

Well he is insane and joker hadn't murdered anyone up until episode 4 where he kinda snapped and the insanity took control completely. He tried to keep it at bay these other episodes but then yeah. Also he did confess to bruce that he has this feeling like an animal inside. ofc he is responsible for his crimes but he got in the wrong gang/environment which may have had a big part in triggering his going down a wrong path. Though bruce tries to influence him to do good and it kinda backfires a little thanks to waller trying to kill joker after he helped them with harley quinn.

I just finished playing episode 4 and came straight to your channel, I really wanted to see the other choices as I wasn't sure about mine. I don't wanna spoil anything, but for me ep 4 was depressing and I think it's because of this scene. You can really see how he's becoming more and more insane and slowly transitioning into the Joker. And knowing that you can't do anything to prevent him from turning is depressing. It's like innocent John is dying and slowing disappearing and the Joker is taking over. It's like losing a friend. I tried my best to be John's friend throughout the whole series but I guess it doesn't really matter. John turning into Joker is inevitable.

[@BabyZoneGaming]

BabyZone Awesome, I'm looking foward to the ending video since there are so many choices to be curious about. I guess John being Joker isn't too bad, since Telltale's Joker is very different, new and refreshing. It would be interesting to see Joker be a vigilante and maybe work with the Batman.
