   Summary

   After deciding against killing Bruce with the car bomb, Jason realises he needs to remove it if he doesn't want Bruce to find it - and for that, he needs to sneak into the Manor.

   He just didn't expect to run into Bruce. Not like this.

    

   Can be read as an alternate universe to Shell Shock.
