What I got from the movie and novelization was that The Joker was the manipulative boyfriend that you see girls fall for in real life. The ones that have girls doing anything for them.Not always and the movie never balanced out his characterisation you can't just show him pursuing her and not show the psychological rapist. If they didn't add him saying "she was his property" it would have been a formulaic love story
That's what I got from it anyway
