He trains Alfred rigorously and ruthlessly in many sessions. It’s so coincidental because avid readers would remember Bruce and Alfred didn’t have much of an affinity for Guy.

He is a mere shell of the man and mortal he once was.
She fractured his psyche, too. Therefore, it’s easy to envision Guy setting a trap for her. He can be petty and personal, after all. These are traits all versions of Guy have.
