The follow-up to the show’s pilot episode features Kathy Kane (Ruby Rose) continuing to use Batman’s tech while also attempting to convince her family that Alice (Rachel Skarsten) is her sister Elizabeth. By the end of the episode both sisters will know more about each other, and Kathy will save her half-sister Mary (Nicole Kang) from Alice’s jealous wrath. In may ways “The Rabbit Hole” feels like the second-half of the show’s pilot. Despite using the tech, Kathy doesen’t comprehend what the possible return of Batman to Gotham may mean for the dying city as her main focus is preventing her father from shooting Alice on sight before she has a chance to confirm her sister’s identity.

First seen in the Elseworlds crossover, Kathy Kane (Ruby Rose) returns in her own show with Batwoman. Ruby Rose is the show’s biggest asset, especially for an episode that doesn’t see Batwoman take flight until the final act. Taking place prior to the events in “Elseworlds Part 2,” the show’s pilot episode introduces us to Kathy before she takes on the mantle of the Bat. We’re given flashbacks to Kate’s family tragedy (the loss of her sister and mother) and the end of her first romance that didn’t fit into her girlfriend’s (Meagan Tandy) military career. Sophie‘s (Tandy) kidnapping by a new super-villain brings Kate back to a Gotham struggling after the disappearance of Batman years before.
