I wonder if Adam Beechen's planning to set up a love triangle between Terry, Dana, and Aquagirl. Terry's already dating Dana, and things had been going well with Gotham being quiet after "Hush" killed most of Terry's foes. But once he has to get back into action, they're back to the old days where Terry runs off, ostensibly for just a short time, but Dana ends up stuck waiting for him. Which understandably irritates her and strains things between them. Because she doesn't know he's Batman. Why he hasn't told her isn't clear, beyond the most likely explanations of "It'll put her in danger somehow", and the more people who know, the more risk there is to Mr. Wayne's secrets. Though Terry's just asking for trouble if Dana ever does find out and learns that Max has been in the loop a long time. Dana won't be very happy with Max either, I imagine.
Then there's Aquagirl, who seems to be the one member of the League Terry likes, and the one member that likes him, or at least the one willing to give him the benefit of the doubt. She doesn't know his secret identity, but she knew him well enough to guess some of the hostages were important to him, and it was her offer to help that convinced Terry to try and work with the League, rather than keep fighting them as Bruce advised. Terry admits to her he doesn't trust many people, and she responds she hopes he'll trust her.
All the trust talk makes me suspicious. Terry clearly doesn't trust Dana enough to tell her, for whatever reason, and here's this other lady, already involved in the superheroic profession, and she's offering her trust to him, and it feels like there's going to be problems.
