1. (male narrator)
Gotham State Penitentiary
Copy !req
2. one of the states busier
locations.
Copy !req
3. On the surface an institution
of mortar and stone
Copy !req
4. steel bars and rigid discipline
Copy !req
5. but as we have seen before
Copy !req
6. Warden Crichton's advanced
theories of penology
Copy !req
7. make it a place where
recreation is part of reform.
Copy !req
8. And entertainment plays an
important role in con-tainment.
Copy !req
9. (male #1)
'Strike one.'
Copy !req
10. Swing!
Copy !req
11. Strike two!
Copy !req
12. Alright, come on, Hank.
Copy !req
13. Alright, Joker baby, fire
it at me, baby. Fire it at me.
Copy !req
14. Swing!
Copy !req
15. Alright, fellas.
Alright fellas.
Copy !req
16. Alright, this is strike three!
Copy !req
17. You know, I got to hand it
to your boss Warden Crichton.
Copy !req
18. He's done a remarkable
job with The Joker.
Copy !req
19. Yes, he's brought modern
penology a long way, chief.
Copy !req
20. I never thought I'd see
the day when the likes of him
Copy !req
21. would be content
to play baseball
Copy !req
22. rather than plotting
a prison-break.
Copy !req
23. 'Toss it up there.
Come on.'
Copy !req
24. (male #2)
'Alright, come on, Hank.'
Copy !req
25. - Swing!
- You're out!
Copy !req
26. You know, that's the one
true joy in the warden's life.
Copy !req
27. The rehabilitation
of a hardened criminal.
Copy !req
28. It warms his heart.
Copy !req
29. Swing!
Copy !req
30. Alright, come on, Hank.
Copy !req
31. Attaway, baby. Attaway.
Copy !req
32. Alright, Joker.
This is the one.
Copy !req
33. Fire it, baby.
Copy !req
34. Alright, batter. Be here
this time. Be here, batter.
Copy !req
35. (male #1)
'Come on, baby.
Fire it at me. Fire it at me.'
Copy !req
36. Great Scott!
Right over the wall!
Copy !req
37. The devil,
he's sprung himself.
Copy !req
38. Sprung? You can say that again.
Copy !req
39. The Joker?
Copy !req
40. Sprung from the pen?
Copy !req
41. (O'Hara)
'Right under
our noses commissioner.'
Copy !req
42. 'He got clean away.'
Copy !req
43. Well, get back as fast
as you can, Chief O'Hara.
Copy !req
44. If it is The Joker
that we're up against
Copy !req
45. that Clown Prince of Crime..
Copy !req
46. there's only one man
who can handle this.
Copy !req
47. I don't have to tell you who.
Copy !req
48. Sorry, inspector, don't have
the time, make it later.
Copy !req
49. And in Wayne Manor
stately residence
Copy !req
50. of millionaire Bruce Wayne and
his young ward Dick Grayson.
Copy !req
51. I'll call him, sir.
Copy !req
52. I'm afraid you're
going to have
Copy !req
53. to practice
more diligently, Dick.
Copy !req
54. You're just not making
any progress with Chopin.
Copy !req
55. Gee whiz, Aunt Harriet
Copy !req
56. what's so important
about Chopin?
Copy !req
57. All music is important, Dick.
Copy !req
58. It's the universal language.
Copy !req
59. One of our best hopes
for the eventual realization
Copy !req
60. of the brotherhood of man.
Copy !req
61. Gosh, Bruce, yes.
You're right.
Copy !req
62. I'll practice
harder from now on.
Copy !req
63. Your-your snack, Master Dick.
Copy !req
64. Oh, thank you, Alfred.
Copy !req
65. Bat-phone, sir.
Copy !req
66. We'd better leave if we're gonna
make it to that ball game.
Copy !req
67. Holy cofax, you mean..
Copy !req
68. I mean, I didn't know
it was getting so late, Bruce.
Copy !req
69. Ball game, indeed.
Copy !req
70. I don't know what I'm going
to do with that boy, Alfred.
Copy !req
71. He just doesn't seem
to have any appreciation
Copy !req
72. for the finer things in life.
Copy !req
73. No need, madam.
Copy !req
74. What is it,
commissioner? The Joker?
Copy !req
75. - Not him again.
- How soon can you get here?
Copy !req
76. Quick as a flash, commissioner.
Copy !req
77. To the Bat-poles.
Copy !req
78. Gigantic coil spring
secretly fashioned in
Copy !req
79. the prison machine shop.
Copy !req
80. - Holy Jack-in-the-box!
- Exactly, Boy Wonder.
Copy !req
81. Propelled him out
before the astonished guards
Copy !req
82. could get a shot at him.
Copy !req
83. Ingenious. Only The Joker
would think of that.
Copy !req
84. You searched
the area outside?
Copy !req
85. Sure thing, we did
Copy !req
86. and found nothing
but the net he landed in.
Copy !req
87. But inside at the base of that
spring they discovered this.
Copy !req
88. A good likeness.
Copy !req
89. A good likeness
but a bad joke.
Copy !req
90. Laughing at us
for letting him get away.
Copy !req
91. (Batman)
'It might be more
than a joke, Chief O'Hara.'
Copy !req
92. Batman's right.
It could be a clue.
Copy !req
93. A clue?
Copy !req
94. Sure. The crime wave
he's plotting.
Copy !req
95. But why would he
leave you a clue, Batman?
Copy !req
96. He might not mean to.
Copy !req
97. It's a trait of the
criminal mind the urge to boast.
Copy !req
98. It often leads to the criminals
giving himself away.
Copy !req
99. A bust mounted on a pedestal.
Copy !req
100. (Batman)
'A bust.'
Copy !req
101. 'A pedestal.'
Copy !req
102. Where does one usually find
a bust mounted on a pedestal?
Copy !req
103. - In a museum.
- Right. Or in a hall of fame.
Copy !req
104. - Or in both!
- Exactly.
Copy !req
105. A perfect set up for
one of The Joker's jolly crimes.
Copy !req
106. I don't understand, Batman.
Copy !req
107. This very day
the Gotham Museum of Modern Art
Copy !req
108. opened a new exhibit.
Copy !req
109. A comedians Hall of Fame.
Copy !req
110. I read in the paper, they were
not going to include The Joker.
Copy !req
111. Just the thing
to make him want to get even.
Copy !req
112. Of course.
Copy !req
113. The museum also houses
a fabulous jewel collection.
Copy !req
114. Oh, chief, why didn't
we think of that?
Copy !req
115. Me hats off to you, Batman.
Copy !req
116. Save the compliments,
Chief O'Hara.
Copy !req
117. Our job has just begun.
Copy !req
118. Come on, Robin. We've got
a date at the Gotham Museum.
Copy !req
119. Oh, there he is.
It's Robin, the Boy Wonder!
Copy !req
120. Oh, my God!
Copy !req
121. That's okay,
Batman. Don't worry.
Copy !req
122. Thanks, officer.
Copy !req
123. Police emergency,
clear the museum.
Copy !req
124. We think there may be
a daring crime plotted.
Copy !req
125. Yes. Yes, of course.
Copy !req
126. Strange. Look.
Copy !req
127. (Robin)
'The Joker.'
Copy !req
128. He's included in the Comedians
Hall of Fame after all.
Copy !req
129. Maybe the paper
made a mistake.
Copy !req
130. Or else..
Copy !req
131. (male on PA)
'Attention ladies
and gentlemen..'
Copy !req
132. the museum is
now closing for the day.
Copy !req
133. We will reopen tomorrow
at ten o'clock.
Copy !req
134. 'Move promptly
to the exits, please.'
Copy !req
135. You were saying,
Batman, "Or else.."
Copy !req
136. I don't know.
Copy !req
137. Museum officials could've heard
about The Joker's prison-break
Copy !req
138. and hastily included him.
Copy !req
139. Sure. So as not to enrage him
into stealing the jewels.
Copy !req
140. Or else, this whole thing
could be a trick
Copy !req
141. to divert us
from his real intentions.
Copy !req
142. Holy red herring!
Copy !req
143. How will we find out?
Copy !req
144. Let's look up
the director of the museum.
Copy !req
145. What's the matter, Batman?
Copy !req
146. No, it's nothing, for a second
there I could've sworn
Copy !req
147. I saw that statue move.
Copy !req
148. Sure looks lifelike.
Copy !req
149. It's almost as if
I could hear that
Copy !req
150. hateful Harley Quinn laughing.
Copy !req
151. Come on,
let's find the director.
Copy !req
152. Quick, where do
we find the director?
Copy !req
153. The administrative annex.
Copy !req
154. Entrance next door, Batman.
Copy !req
155. Thanks. Sorry about
the early closing.
Copy !req
156. Lock it up good.
The Joker's on the loose.
Copy !req
157. Don't worry about him getting
in here, Batman. No, sir.
Copy !req
158. Once I get these doors locked,
the museum is burglarproof.
Copy !req
159. No one could break into it.
Copy !req
160. Come on, Robin.
Copy !req
161. Ready to lock up, Mr. Hovis.
Copy !req
162. Coming.
Copy !req
163. Come, my comic cohorts in crime.
Copy !req
164. Come, Oliver.
Copy !req
165. Come, Stanley.
Copy !req
166. Come, Ernie.
Copy !req
167. W.C. Fields, come.
Copy !req
168. Come, my puckish
partners in plunder.
Copy !req
169. Batman has been outwitted
Copy !req
170. and the fabulous jewel
collection is ours.
Copy !req
171. Strange. No answer. I wonder.
Copy !req
172. What is it, Batman?
Copy !req
173. Something that guard said.
Copy !req
174. All he said was that
the museum was burglarproof.
Copy !req
175. Yes, but then he
added something else.
Copy !req
176. He said, no one
could break into it..
Copy !req
177. Holy stuffing!
Copy !req
178. Exactly, Robin.
Copy !req
179. That doesn't mean
that someone couldn't..
Copy !req
180. (together)
Break out!
Copy !req
181. - Guard! Guard!
- Smash the lock.
Copy !req
182. Oh, how delicious it is.
Copy !req
183. The Joker outwits Batman
Copy !req
184. and steals
the fabulous jewel collection
Copy !req
185. right out from
under his nose.
Copy !req
186. Oh, my playful pilfering pals.
Copy !req
187. How delicious it is.
Copy !req
188. We hate to sound
a sour note, Joker.
Copy !req
189. But it's time for us
to make our own collection.
Copy !req
190. Destroy them!
Copy !req
191. Watch out, Batman.
Copy !req
192. Batman!
Copy !req
193. We have two more jewels
for our collection.
Copy !req
194. My comic cronies.
Copy !req
195. Batman and Robin, the dashing
diamonds of derring-do.
Copy !req
196. Come, my funny fellows.
Copy !req
197. We've got a little
diamond cutting to do.
Copy !req
198. Is Batman to become
just another jewel
Copy !req
199. in the Clown Prince's crown?
Copy !req
200. Here's a joke on you, you fiend.
Copy !req
201. It's the gasser.
Copy !req
202. This is the end
of your evil career.
Copy !req
203. That cursed utility belt again.
Copy !req
204. I swear by all that's funny
Copy !req
205. I shall never be
fooled by that insidious
Copy !req
206. unconstitutional device again.
Copy !req
207. Two heads
for the price of one.
Copy !req
208. Could this be a threat?
Will The Joker keep his vow?
Copy !req
209. Can he?
Copy !req
210. How?
Copy !req
211. Gotham Pier Amusement Park.
Copy !req
212. What more appropriate place to
find the hideout of The Joker?
Copy !req
213. Never again will Batman
have the advantage over me
Copy !req
214. with that utility belt of his.
Copy !req
215. No, never again will that
ghastly girdle thwart my plans.
Copy !req
216. For I,
the Clown Prince of Crime
Copy !req
217. have found the answer to it.
Copy !req
218. - What is it, Joker?
- My own utility belt.
Copy !req
219. Gee, terrific.
Copy !req
220. - Can I try it—
- Hands off, you fool.
Copy !req
221. It is for me, only.
Copy !req
222. Me, your merry master.
Copy !req
223. It's secrets are
my precious property.
Copy !req
224. What does it do, Joker?
Copy !req
225. Everything.
Copy !req
226. It's my Aladdin's lamp.
Copy !req
227. Gee, can I make
a wish on it?
Copy !req
228. Do, my pretty!
Copy !req
229. Gee, I'd like
a million bucks.
Copy !req
230. - A sable wrap—
- Oh, common place.
Copy !req
231. A two-week ocean cruise?
Copy !req
232. Extraordinary.
Copy !req
233. What, Joker?
Copy !req
234. Just the thing.
Copy !req
235. The most astonishing coup
anyone ever pulled.
Copy !req
236. Queenie, quick,
get me that newspaper.
Copy !req
237. Here you are, Joker.
Copy !req
238. S.S. Gotham.
Copy !req
239. The new super luxury liner
Copy !req
240. going to be launched
this Saturday. Yes!
Copy !req
241. Gosh, you think you could use
your utility belt to, uh
Copy !req
242. get me a cruise
on the S.S. Gotham.
Copy !req
243. A cruise?
Mere petty pilfering.
Copy !req
244. I'll get you the whole ship!
Copy !req
245. - What?
- The whole ship?
Copy !req
246. - How, Joker?
- Ah! First steps first.
Copy !req
247. Our old nemesis Batman.
Copy !req
248. - 'He'll try to stop us.'
- Exactly. Exactly.
Copy !req
249. We must first eliminate
Batman from the scene.
Copy !req
250. Since you're
the majority stockholder in
Copy !req
251. Gotham shipping lines,
Bruce, I hope you'd be pleased
Copy !req
252. to hear that I've arranged
for Batman and the Boy Wonder
Copy !req
253. to christen the S.S. Gotham
when she's launched on Saturday.
Copy !req
254. What is it, commissioner?
What does it mean?
Copy !req
255. It looks like
a clown doll to me.
Copy !req
256. (Gordon)
'It's that chap
on the chicanery again.'
Copy !req
257. (O'Hara)
'The Joker.'
Copy !req
258. Could he be subconsciously
pointing toward his next crime?
Copy !req
259. Maybe he's gonna
rob the circus.
Copy !req
260. Oh, no, no, no.
The circus left town last week.
Copy !req
261. (Gordon)
'Batman should know
about this immediately.'
Copy !req
262. I'm sorry, commissioner,
but Batman is out for the day.
Copy !req
263. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. I'll leave
word that you called.
Copy !req
264. He's not there.
Copy !req
265. What are we to do now,
commissioner?
Copy !req
266. I don't know.
I just don't know.
Copy !req
267. Well, don't worry. I'm sure the
police department can handle it.
Copy !req
268. Dick and I are already late
for that Chopin concert.
Copy !req
269. If you need anything,
please let us know.
Copy !req
270. Yes, I'll do that, Bruce.
Copy !req
271. Oh, by the way,
it may sound strange but..
Copy !req
272. I wonder if I could keep
that doll for a souvenir.
Copy !req
273. - Any use for it, O'Hara?
- Hmm, not for me.
Copy !req
274. The sooner we get
this out of headquarters
Copy !req
275. the better I like it.
Copy !req
276. With our compliments, Bruce.
Copy !req
277. A souvenir of your
narrow brush with crime.
Copy !req
278. Thank you, commissioner.
Copy !req
279. We're already
late for the concert
Copy !req
280. but if you need us
for anything just let us know.
Copy !req
281. Huh? A fat lot of help he'd be
against someone like The Joker.
Copy !req
282. Oh, he's a good man Bruce Wayne.
Copy !req
283. But not even all his money
could buy us another Batman.
Copy !req
284. Gosh! Nothing but perfectly
ordinary dust patterns.
Copy !req
285. I'm disappointed alright.
Copy !req
286. I'd hope for some clue to the
location of his secret hideout.
Copy !req
287. Think it's worth
checking for secret writing?
Copy !req
288. No, I hardly think so.
Copy !req
289. That's not
The Joker's way of working.
Copy !req
290. Why did The Joker throw
the doll through the window?
Copy !req
291. What was the point of it?
Copy !req
292. - I think I've got it.
- You have, Batman?
Copy !req
293. What other kind of clown is
there besides a circus clown?
Copy !req
294. I'll give you a hint, tonight,
there's gonna be a live telecast
Copy !req
295. of the Gotham City
opera company.
Copy !req
296. Golly, Batman,
I still don't get it.
Copy !req
297. They're performing a certain
celebrated Italian opera.
Copy !req
298. Holy ravioli!
Copy !req
299. Your warm.
Copy !req
300. (together)
Pagliacci!
Copy !req
301. That's beautiful.
Copy !req
302. I-I always..
Copy !req
303. I always loved that song.
Copy !req
304. Melancholy, baby.
Copy !req
305. Joker!
Copy !req
306. It's my mother-in-law.
Copy !req
307. They-they shouldn't be
out with those colds.
Copy !req
308. And now people of Gotham City
Copy !req
309. the moment you have
all been waiting for.
Copy !req
310. The grande finale.
Copy !req
311. The climax of my performance.
Copy !req
312. The zenith of my career!
Copy !req
313. The unmasking of Batman
and Robin the Boy Wonder.
Copy !req
314. Could this mean curtains?
Copy !req
315. Will the identities
of our Dynamic Duo be
Copy !req
316. revealed to the whole world?
Copy !req
317. Is this the end of their
career as crime-fighters?
Copy !req
318. Can they avert disaster?
Copy !req
319. Answers, tomorrow.
Copy !req
320. Same Bat-time.
Copy !req
321. Same Bat-channel.
Copy !req
