Plot Summary[]
"Parker Breaks Out"[]
During a shootout with Ma Parker and her family, Batman and Robin remember what happened earlier today; Commissioner Gordon contacted the Dynamic Duo about a riot at the women's prison. After sorting out the matter, Batman and Robin discover that Ma Parker has escaped during the confusion with her daughter, Legs.
As the Dynamic Duo sped over to Gotham Penitentiary, Ma Parker knocks out a guard by tricking him with a birthday gift, and frees her sons, Pretty Boy and Mad Dog, along with Killer Croc, Solomon Grundy and Killer Moth. After dealing with more guards, Ma Parker and her family escape in their car, leading to the rest of the main event.
As the Batmobile pursues the Parker Family car, Ma Parker jumps out to deal with Batman and Robin, causing the Parker's car to speed off a bridge and land in the river. While Robin deals with Pretty Boy, Batman and Ma Parker dove into the water and rescue Legs and Mad Dog.
Working out a solution, Batman committed the Parker family at the Arkham Intitute for the Criminally Insane and placed them all in one cell decorated like their living room.
"Catwoman Comes About!"[]
During the prison riot caused by the Parker gang, Catwoman, Killer Croc, Solomon Grundy and Killer Moth escaped into Gotham, leading Batman, Robin and Batgirl on a manhunt for them.
While searching for the four villains on their Batcycles, Robin and Batgirl were ambushed by Grundy, Croc and Killer Moth. Meanwhile, Batman pursues Catwoman after she stole from a rich woman. During their chase, Catwoman slips off a roof and falls, but Batman saved her at the last minute. Just as Batman was about Catwoman into custody after returning the tiara, two kids ran up to Batman and tell him that Robin and Batgirl are captured by Croc, Grundy and Killer Moth.
Knowing that Batman might need help, Catwoman unlocks her Bat-Cuffs, and together, they head off to the wharf in the Batmobile. Meanwhile, Grundy, Killer Moth and Croc have tied up Robin and Batgirl over a group of sharks in the bay as bait for Batman. Just then, Batman appears on the roof of the ship, and as Croc and Killer Moth climb up to face him, Catwoman reveals herself as a decoy, while the real Batman frees Robin and Batgirl.
After defeating the three villains in a long fight, Catwoman snuck away in the action. As Batman, Robin and Batgirl wonder if she is still a criminal at heart, Catwoman listens adoringly to Batman while he was talking about them needing her help while hanging on the prowl of the ship.
