Synopsis | Batman gases Dick Grayson. Alfred patches up Vicki. Batman tosses Dick into the Batmobile, driving off. Dick recovers quickly, and they discuss the situation. Cops start chasing them and surround them, until Batman rockets over and onto them, laughing like a maniac all the while. The Batmobile then engages wings, and rockets off.
