Synopsis: At face value, Willow Zimmerman comes across as a polite sixteen-year-old girl who tries her best to help everyone around her, either by volunteering at her local pet shelter or by being an advocate for her community. But underneath the surface, you'll soon discover that she's also a very troubled girl, as she can't afford the health insurance needed to combat her mother's life-threatening cancer.

So, in an act of desperation, Willow decides to reconnect with her estranged 'uncle', Uncle Edward, who gives her a job hosting private poker nights for Gotham City's elites. Well, that's who she thinks they are, until she's suddenly injured in an encounter with a big, green monster, named Killer Croc, which somehow grants her the ability to understand animals. Animals like her dog, Lebowitz, for instance, who tells her… 'Your uncle's a gangster'.
