The story

In 1981, Arthur Fleck is a party clown and aspiring stand-up comedian who lives with his mother, Penny, in a crime-ridden and recession-stricken Gotham City.

While riding home on the subway and still wearing his clown make-up, he is mocked and assaulted by three drunk employees from Wayne Investments.

Arthur intercepts a letter from Penny to Thomas indicating that he is Thomas's illegitimate son, and berates his mother for hiding the truth of his parentage.
