'Batwoman' Episode 2 promo shows Kate Kane reveal to her family, Alice is her sister Beth who was presumed dead
'Batwoman' Season 1 Episode 2's promo features interesting revelations including one where we see Kate Kane (Ruby Rose) aka Batwoman tell her father Jacob Kane (Dougray Scott) the truth about Alice (Rachel Skarsten). In the first episode, we saw Kate come to terms with the fact that Alice is none other than her sister Beth, who had been assumed to be dead along with Kate's mother.
However, neither Beth nor their mother's body was ever found and this case was something that had haunted Kate's cousin Bruce Wayne aka Batman. While Kate did decide to don her cousin's cape to help her ex-girlfriend who had been kidnapped by Alice, she had never expected to come face to face with her long lost sister.
In the promo, Kate confesses to her family, including her stepsister and stepmother that "Alice is Beth". This is after Alice announced to Gotham it is her life goal to take the Crows down. The security firm owned by Jacob, which is currently providing security for the city's affluent in the absence of Batman.
We also see Kate being forced to take on the role of the caped-crusader as a full-time responsibility. We see Luke Fox tell her it is now too late to reconsider going on masked missions because she has already become a symbol of hope for people.
The promo also shows Sophie Moore (Meagan Tandy) call Alice a monster, and why wouldn't she? After all, the Crows agent was kidnapped by her and her mask-wearing minions to teach Jacob a lesson. We also see Jacob tell his daughter Kate she crossed a line. Is he referring to her confession about Alice? Does he not believe Kate about who Alice really is?
Also, who is Kate chasing in the next episode? We see her imprisoning a man who had assumed from her costume that she was Batman. However, he learns differently. Now, will news finally spread that it is not Batman who is safeguarding a city but someone else who has borrowed the cape for the time-being?
Another interesting relationship we would love to see expand further is that between Kate and her stepsister Mary. In the first episode, it was Mary who helped Kate when she was stuck in a tight spot and even treated her wounds.
She was also the one to inform Kate about Sophie's disappearance in the first place. So, it would definitely be interesting to see how this relationship evolves over the season.
The next episode of 'Batwoman' will air on Sunday at 8 p.m. ET on The CW.
