Trivia / Batman: The Animated Series E7 "P.O.V."

• What Could Have Been: Montoya, Bullock, and Wilkes originally told each other's accounts of what happened in a coffee shop instead of police headquarters and their careers weren't on the line. The episode proper also would have delved into Bullock and Montoya's backstories, revealing that Bullock was once a high school sports star with an abusive father who drilled respect for the rules into him, explaining his intense dislike of Batman, while Montoya would have been revealed to grow up in Crime Alley and is a reformed teenage punk, who cleaned up her act and dedicated her life to helping people. Their backstories were axed by the censors, and was one of the main reasons why writer/story editor Sean Catherine Derek left the show in frustration.
  • Montoya being chased by the Driller would've went on a lot longer, but the BS&P likened it to a rape fantasy. The crew agreed and the scene was taken out in its entirety.
