Selina weighs her options

Attempt a bribe.

"I'll level with you, Crumpet, I'm... not exactly one of your dancers. I'm the genuine article." Selina told the Englishwoman.

Surprised flared up on Buxton's face as she took a step back.

"If you're plannin' to rob the guvnor, you're a few cats short of a shelter, love! Oswald Cobblepot practically runs Gotham now." she warned.

"I'm not trying to rob anyone!" Selina insisted. "Well, not anyone affiliated with Cobblepot. I've got a score I need his help on, something big, only me and the little guy aren't exactly on the best of terms."

"I'll say!" Tracey scoffed, tossing her boa over her shoulder. "You nearly gave 'im a heart attack, last time you cleared out 'is vault."

"How about I pay him a little mea culpa? A peace offering. I've got money." Selina insisted. Tracey simply tossed her head back and laughed.

"_Cobblepot's _got money, you've got a few baubles you've managed to nick." the blonde shot back.

"How about I pay you then, honey? You obviously have some amount of influence. You get me a meeting, I'll make sure you're kept in tea." Selina said, quickly bringing up a counteroffer.

"That wouldn't be cheap, gorgeous." Ms. Buxton responded. "I'm not telling the boss a thing for anything less than a hundred k!"

Can Selina afford it?
