- Walks in<br>- makes fun of a crime syndicate, <br>- kills a henchman, <br>- disrespects and intimidates them, <br>- picks the weakest group to kill later as an example not to challenge him, <br>- tricks them into helping him,<br>- leaves. <br><br>What. A. Boss.

The line about Gambol’s grandma was so juvenile, but subtly brilliant. The Joker was gauging Gambol’s reaction to get some background info on him. This explains why he told him the abusive-father-scar-story later on. Men with influential grandmothers typically have absent fathers. The Joker was insanely good at reading people.

The way Ledger "dead eyes" everyone he looks at except Batman. It's as if each person he looks at is dead already and not really relevant..... watch it again and look at his eyes..... brilliant.

Also, the pencil trick shows the difference between a criminal and a super villain. As Megamind would say, "Presentation!"

He tells them to call when they want to take it serious and gives them joker card. Lol

The card being a joker with no actual way of contacting the individual called The Joker also reinforces your point that he had no intention of actually honoring his deal with the mob.

“A guy like me....”<br>“Freak.”<br>That was when Joker decided to kill the guy.<br>“I want to hear proposition.”<br>And that’s when he decides to kill that guy last.
