It's a rare day when the Riddler lets a question go unanswered. And this... well. Maybe this isn't entirely the case today, but it comes very close to it. However curious he is, he knows an unhealed wound when he sees one, and he's not really sure he even has to fortitude to broach that sort of thing. He still wants to go crawl under his desk and die a lot.
"Bad memories?" It's less of an outright question and more of a confirmation. If she tells him sometime, she tells him. Later he might be slightly amazed she even wanted him to stay here, but right now he's spending most of his brainpower trying to both not bolt and not think about this because the latter will lead to the former. And he feels even more awkward than usual when he actually does move, especially since it's to pick up Caroline's hand and kiss it very softly. What is he doing.

He doesn't even know, really.
