Up until this point, Harvey hadn't gotten too involved with the talk of Landel and his old colleague. In fact, that was really all the man knew about this "Jack" - or was it "Doyle"? He was a previous co-worker of Landel's, and he'd ended up dead somehow. Harvey just hadn't cared about whatever drama was playing out over their heads. He'd been far more focused on finding the Bat and then getting out of here so that he could move on to Gordon, but things had become far more personal now.
They had touched at Rachel's death, and that was one thing that he couldn't just let slide. So, while he would really rather not get caught up in a ton of analysis and chasing ideas in circles, he wanted to know who had caused him to see what he'd seen and hear what he'd heard last night.
"So, what, this guy somehow came back from the dead with all the other zombies last night, didn't he?" For the moment, he was just going to have to forget that coming back to life shouldn't have been possible. He had already seen it happen, and yet it did seem odd that this Jack guy would have had his higher mental function when all of the others had been mindless. "And we're assuming that Landel was gone yesterday because Jack grabbed him, right? In that case, yeah, it makes sense that Jack was behind the computer malfunction."
Whether that meant that he had also caused them to have those hallucinations and gave some of those people those sudden wounds that he'd heard so much about remained to be seen, though. The discrepancy in his own case was still puzzling him, but he had to wonder if it was because when it came down to it, he more or less already had Rachel's wounds. Not as severe, obviously, but...
"I don't know much about this guy, but I'd say he's a step above all those other... zombies," he said, still finding it difficult to get that word out. "I'm guessing he just held Landel hostage for a while so he could do whatever he was doing with I.R.I.S., though."
On the other hand, it could have all been some sort of ploy or act orchestrated by Landel to get them to focus all their attentions on Jack instead, but Harvey didn't want to get caught up in conspiracy theories. Then again, even what he was piecing together was pretty weak, and he knew it.
Maybe it would be best to just take all of his frustration and let it out on Batman when he finally got to be face-to-face with him again.
