Plot Summary[]
"Eggolution"[]
Chief O'Hara called Batman and Robin over to investigate a giant egg standing in the middle of the street in Gotham City. As the Dynamic Duo investigate it, the egg's shell started to crack. Deploying the Bulletproof Bat-Shield, Batman and Robin ducked behind just as the egg hatched, sending yellow egg yolk all over the street. Amongst the yolk, a strange being stepped out of the mass and approaches the Dynamic Duo. As Batman and Robin cover themselves with their capes, the being turns a dial on his suit revealing himself to be Egghead wearing a futuristic evolution suit.
He explains to the Dynamic Duo about his past failures to destroy them and his latest plan that made him the Greatest Criminal Genius of the Future by spending weeks inside in an incubator that increased his mind and intelligence. When Chief O'Hara tried to apprehend him, Egghead trapped him in a pillar of rock, and when Batman and Robin hurled their Batarangs at Egghead, he transformed them into apes. But no sooner as Egghead dealt with the Dynamic Duo, he suffered a headache, leading his two henchmen to carry him back to his hideout to check him out.
After Egghead and his thugs left, Batman and Robin free Chief O'Hara and head off after Egghead in the Batmobile. After recovering at his hideout, Egghead announced his latest plan to take over the world: to create a new existence. He goes around Gotham, demonstrating his new powers during Mr. Freeze and Riddler's robberies by levitating an armored car of money the Freeze was robbing and turning Riddler's henchmen on Riddler and had them lock him in the vault while he steals the money.
At the Batcave, Batman and Robin scanned the city databases on the Batcomputer for any traces for the whereabouts of Egghead's laboratory, and they successfully located it: the former Souper Sam's Egg Noodles factory. Heading over to the factory, Batman and Robin defeated Egghead's henchmen, and Egghead transformed them back to normal. Seizing Egghead, the Dynamic Duo took him to his lab and reversed the process, restoring Egghead back to normal, and then took him to police headquarters.
