There’s a scene in Tim Burton’s 1989 Batman where Jack Nicholson’s Joker has just come out of the acid bath, after having bullets ricochet of Batman’s gauntlets, cutting his cheeks open. He’s sitting in an “after hours” “plastic surgeon’s” “office” where he screams “MIRROR!,” demanding to see what his new face looks like. He holds up the mirror, looks at himself, smashes said mirror and begins to laugh hysterically. The surgeon, fearing for his life replies “but you see what I had to work with” as the camera shows the crude tools of his trade. THAT statement, right there, pretty much sums up what fans and the Flames alike should be saying this season: But you see what I had to work with?
So....This Is What They Have To Work With?
