Hypnotized



Hypnotized is the fifth episode of the first season of The Joker Blogs. It was first uploaded on Youtube on March 8, 2009.

Characters

 * Scott McClure as Joker
 * Paul Vonasek as Dr. Hugo Strange

Production Notes

 * The Joker's red facepaint (for his lips) had to be painted black to allow the night vision camera to pick up on it, as the red color appeared as white under night vision.
 * The pads on the Joker's forehead were made from two ends of a pair of headphones and duct tape was used to make the black circles.
 * The audio used during the hypnotherapy session is an actual I-Doser sound used in hypnosis.

Event Chronology

 * The events of "Hypnotized" occur after "My Funny Valentine" and before "An Apple A Day".

Episode Connections

 * The Joker references the "gift" he gave Harleen (Steve's dead body). This was seen in "Meet Steve", with her subsequent reaction to his "gift" in "A Dream Come True".
 * The Joker delved into his bear-hunting dream in "A Dream Come True".
 * Joker knows Dr. Strange's home address and personal details about his life from snooping online about him, as seen in the Future Evidence video "He Can't Because He's Dead".
 * Dr. Strange's hypnotherapy session with the Joker is online by "Shotgun Wedding", where Jack Ryder mentions to Mrs. Strange about the water bed she has in her home (which Dr. Strange realizes Jack has knowledge of because he must have watched the video).
 * It is revealed in "Staff Verification" that Dr. Strange suffered some repercussions as a result of him physically assaulting the Joker.
