Synopsis for "Random Encounters"

Renee Montoya and her brother Benny have a conversation outside their parents grocery store. It was clear that something was bothering Benny and Renee asked what was it. Benny told his sister that after seeing her killing a criminal a few days ago, he remembered the time when he was assigned on a mission for the U.S. Army. Benny couldn't stop thinking of all the people who died becauseof him; all the people he killed back then and what worsened it all was that the government gave him a medal for his good work.

Benny was feeling really bad about those memories and Renee told him that life is sometimes raw, and hard but that everyone has to do what they're supposed to at the moment they have to do it; otherwise the normal people wouldn't be different from the superheroes or the villains. The Montoya siblings shared a moment together among the destroyed Gotham City.

Notes
