We're watching Batwoman (2019-22), because it's about superheroes, so why wouldn't we?
All of the residents of Gotham City are dour and depressed, but Kate Kane (Ruby Rose) achieves new heights of angst when she discovers that Cousin Bruce was Batman, takes over his Batcave, and starts fighting costumed baddies.

2. Now Ex-Girlfriend works for the Crows, the private security force that Gotham City uses instead of police, which is coincidentally run by Kate's Dad, Jacob Kane (Dougray Scott).

3. Jacob's new wife also happens to be the CEO of a multi-billion dollar company that invents new and better weapons to sell to whatever evil empire wants them. Her pride and joy is a gun with a "coil accelerator," the only thing that can pierce Batman's body suit and kill him (see, they both hate Batman, and now Batwoman). Inventor Dean Devereaux (Matthew Graham) is the only person on Earth who knows how it works.
4.-5. So, what happened to Kate's twin sister after her car plunged into that river? She was grabbed by August Cartwright (John Emmet Tracy), a plastic surgeon experimenting with human-skin face masks for his visually-different son Mouse (Sam Littlefield, left). He says that he wants Twin Sister to "join the family," but instead he keeps her locked in a basement room for 12 years, with no food and nothing to read but Alice in Wonderland.
1. Years ago, Kate was expelled from miitary school for doing gay stuff. Her girlfriend claimed to be straight and got to stay, and is now in a lavender marriage to a guy who doesn't appear in the cast list; Google AI names him as Tyler, played by Greyston Holt.

Kate and Ex-Girlfriend exchange longing looks, but the betrayal is too great to overcome.
2. Now Ex-Girlfriend works for the Crows, the private security force that Gotham City uses instead of police, which is coincidentally run by Kate's Dad, Jacob Kane (Dougray Scott).
Years ago, he lost his wife and daughter, Kate's twin sister, when their car plunged off a bridge. He searched for his daughter's body for years, until his new wife faked a DNA sample and convinced him that deer bones belonged to her.
