1. Gotham State Penitentiary...
Copy !req
2. one of the state's
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 containment.
Copy !req
9. Fire it to me
baby, fire it to me!
Copy !req
10. Well, I got to hand it to
your boss, Warden Crichton.
Copy !req
11. He's done a remarkable
job with the Joker.
Copy !req
12. Yes. He's brought modern
penology a long way, chief.
Copy !req
13. I never thought I'd see the
day when the likes of him...
Copy !req
14. would be content to play baseball
rather than plotting a prison break.
Copy !req
15. Come on, walk it off.
Copy !req
16. Coming.
Copy !req
17. That's strike three. You're out!
Copy !req
18. You know, that's the one
true joy in the warden's life...
Copy !req
19. the rehabilitation of
a hardened criminal.
Copy !req
20. It warms his heart.
Copy !req
21. That's strike three!
Copy !req
22. Out of the way,
baby. Out of the way.
Copy !req
23. All right, Joker, this is
the one. Fire it, baby.
Copy !req
24. All right, batter. Be a
hitter this time. Be a hitter.
Copy !req
25. Come on, babe.
Fire at me. Fire at me.
Copy !req
26. Great Scott.
Right over the wall.
Copy !req
27. The devil. He sprung himself.
Copy !req
28. Sprung? You can say that again.
Copy !req
29. The Joker, sprung from the pen?
Copy !req
30. Right under our noses,
commissioner. He got clean away.
Copy !req
31. Well, get back as fast
as you can, Chief O'Hara.
Copy !req
32. In the meantime, if it is the
Joker that we're up against...
Copy !req
33. that Clown Prince of Crime...
Copy !req
34. there's only one man
who can handle this.
Copy !req
35. I don't have to tell you who.
Copy !req
36. Sorry, inspector, don't
have the time. Make it later.
Copy !req
37. And in Wayne Manor...
Copy !req
38. stately residence of
millionaire Bruce Wayne...
Copy !req
39. and his young
ward, Dick Grayson.
Copy !req
40. I'll call him, sir.
Copy !req
41. I'm afraid you're going to have
to practice more diligently, Dick.
Copy !req
42. You're just not making
any progress with Chopin.
Copy !req
43. Gee, whiz, Aunt Harriet. What's
so important about Chopin?
Copy !req
44. All music is important, Dick.
Copy !req
45. It's the universal language.
Copy !req
46. One of our best hopes for the eventual
realization of the brotherhood of man.
Copy !req
47. Gosh, Bruce, yes. You're right.
I'll practice harder from now on.
Copy !req
48. - Ahem. Your, uh, snack, Master Dick.
- Oh, thank you, Alfred.
Copy !req
49. Batphone, sir.
Copy !req
50. Uh, we better get a move on if we're
gonna make it to that ballgame on time.
Copy !req
51. Holy Koufax, you mean...
Copy !req
52. I mean, I didn't know it
was getting so late, Bruce.
Copy !req
53. Ballgame, indeed.
Copy !req
54. I don't know what I'm going
to do with that boy, Alfred.
Copy !req
55. He just doesn't seem to have any
appreciation for the finer things in life.
Copy !req
56. No, indeed, madam.
Copy !req
57. What is it, commissioner?
Copy !req
58. - The Joker?
- Not him again.
Copy !req
59. - How soon can you get here?
- Quick as a flash, commissioner.
Copy !req
60. To the Batpoles.
Copy !req
61. Gigantic coiled spring secretly
fashioned in the prison machine shop.
Copy !req
62. - Holy jack-in-the-box.
- Exactly, Boy Wonder.
Copy !req
63. Propelled him over the wall before
the guards could get a shot at him.
Copy !req
64. Ingenious.
Copy !req
65. Only the Joker
would think of that.
Copy !req
66. You searched the area outside?
Copy !req
67. Sure and we did and found
nothing but the net he landed in.
Copy !req
68. But inside at the base of that
spring, they discovered this.
Copy !req
69. A good likeness.
Copy !req
70. A good likeness but a bad joke. Laughing
at us for letting him get away like that.
Copy !req
71. It might be more than
a joke, Chief O'Hara.
Copy !req
72. Batman's right.
It could be a clue.
Copy !req
73. - A clue?
- Sure. The crime wave he's plotting.
Copy !req
74. But why would he leave
you a clue, Batman?
Copy !req
75. He might not mean to.
Copy !req
76. It's a trait of the criminal
mind, the urge to boast.
Copy !req
77. It often leads to the
criminal's giving himself away.
Copy !req
78. A bust mounted on a pedestal.
Copy !req
79. A bust, a pedestal.
Copy !req
80. Where does one usually find
a bust mounted on a pedestal?
Copy !req
81. - In a museum.
- Right.
Copy !req
82. - Or in a Hall of Fame.
- Or in both.
Copy !req
83. Exactly. A perfect setup for
one of the Joker's jolly crimes.
Copy !req
84. I don't understand, Batman.
Copy !req
85. This very day, the Gotham Museum
of Modern Art opened a new exhibit.
Copy !req
86. A Comedians Hall of Fame.
Copy !req
87. And I read in the paper, they
were not going to include the Joker.
Copy !req
88. Just the thing to make
him wanna get even.
Copy !req
89. Of course. The museum also
houses a fabulous jewel collection.
Copy !req
90. - Oh, Chief, why didn't we think of that?
- Me hats off to you, Batman.
Copy !req
91. Save the compliments, Chief
O'Hara. Our job has just begun.
Copy !req
92. Come on, Robin. We've got a
date at the Gotham Museum.
Copy !req
93. Oh, there he is! It's
Robin, the Boy Wonder!
Copy !req
94. That's okay,
Batman, don't worry.
Copy !req
95. Thanks, officer.
Copy !req
96. Police emergency,
clear the museum.
Copy !req
97. We think there may be
a daring crime plotted.
Copy !req
98. Yes, yes, of course.
Copy !req
99. Strange. Look.
Copy !req
100. The Joker.
Copy !req
101. He's included in the
Comedians Hall of Fame after all.
Copy !req
102. - Maybe the paper made a mistake.
- Or else...
Copy !req
103. Attention, ladies and gentlemen,
the museum is now closing for the day.
Copy !req
104. We will reopen
tomorrow at 10:00.
Copy !req
105. Move promptly to
the exits, please.
Copy !req
106. - You were saying, Batman, "or else"?
- I don't know.
Copy !req
107. Museum officials could have heard
about the Joker's prison break...
Copy !req
108. and hastily included him.
Copy !req
109. Sure. So as not to enrage
him to stealing the jewels.
Copy !req
110. Or else this whole thing could be a trick
to divert us from his real intentions.
Copy !req
111. Holy red herring.
How will we find out?
Copy !req
112. Let's look up the
director of the museum.
Copy !req
113. What's the matter, Batman?
Copy !req
114. No. No, it's nothing.
Copy !req
115. It's just for a second there, I
could've sworn I saw that statue move.
Copy !req
116. Ha, ha. Sure looks life-like.
Copy !req
117. It's almost as if I could hear
that hateful harlequin laughing.
Copy !req
118. Come on, let's
find the director.
Copy !req
119. Quick, where do
we find the director?
Copy !req
120. The Administrative Annex,
entrance next door, Batman.
Copy !req
121. Thanks. Sorry about
the early closing.
Copy !req
122. Lock it up good and tight.
The Joker's on the loose again.
Copy !req
123. Don't worry about him
getting in, Batman. No, sir.
Copy !req
124. Once I get these doors locked,
the museum is burglarproof.
Copy !req
125. No one could break into it.
Copy !req
126. Come on, Robin.
Copy !req
127. - Ready to lock up, Mr. Hollis.
- Coming.
Copy !req
128. Come, my comic cohorts in crime.
Copy !req
129. Come, Oliver.
Copy !req
130. Come, Stanley.
Copy !req
131. Come, Ernie.
Copy !req
132. W.C. Fields, come, come.
Copy !req
133. Come, my puckish
partners in plunder.
Copy !req
134. Batman has been outwitted and
the fabulous jewel collection is ours.
Copy !req
135. Strange. No answer. I wonder.
Copy !req
136. - What is it, Batman?
- Something that guard said.
Copy !req
137. All he said was that the
museum was burglarproof.
Copy !req
138. Yes. But then he
added something else.
Copy !req
139. He said no one
could break into it.
Copy !req
140. - Holy stuffy.
- Exactly, Robin.
Copy !req
141. That doesn't mean
that someone couldn't...
Copy !req
142. - break out.
- Break out.
Copy !req
143. - Guard! Guard!
- Smash the lock.
Copy !req
144. Oh, how delicious it is.
Copy !req
145. The Joker outwits Batman...
Copy !req
146. and steals the fabulous jewel collection
right out from under his nose. Ha, ha!
Copy !req
147. Oh, my playful pilfering
pals, how delicious it is.
Copy !req
148. - We hate to sound a sour note, Joker.
- But it's time for us to make our own collection.
Copy !req
149. Destroy them.
Copy !req
150. Watch out, Batman.
Copy !req
151. Batman!
Copy !req
152. We have two more jewels for
our collection, my comic cronies.
Copy !req
153. Batman and Robin, the
dashing diamonds of derring-do.
Copy !req
154. Come, my funny fellows...
Copy !req
155. we've got a little
diamond cutting to do.
Copy !req
156. Is Batman to become just another
jewel in the Clown Prince's crown?
Copy !req
157. Here's a joke on you, you fiend.
Copy !req
158. This is the end
of your evil career.
Copy !req
159. That cursed utility
belt again, is it?
Copy !req
160. I swear by all that's funny...
Copy !req
161. I shall never be foiled by that
insidious, unconstitutional device again.
Copy !req
162. Two heads are better than one.
Copy !req
163. Could this be a threat?
Copy !req
164. Will the Joker keep his vow?
Copy !req
165. Can he? How?
Copy !req
166. Gotham Pier Amusement Park.
Copy !req
167. What more appropriate place
to find the hideout of the Joker?
Copy !req
168. Never again will Batman
have the advantage over me...
Copy !req
169. with that utility belt of his.
Copy !req
170. No, never again will that
ghastly girdle thwart my plans...
Copy !req
171. for I, the Clown Prince of
Crime, have found the answer to it.
Copy !req
172. - What is it, Joker?
- My own utility belt. Ha, ha!
Copy !req
173. - Gee, terrific. Can I try it on?
- Hands off, you fool.
Copy !req
174. It is for me only. Me,
your merry master.
Copy !req
175. Secrets of my precious property.
Copy !req
176. - What does it do, Joker?
- Everything. It's my Aladdin's lamp.
Copy !req
177. - Gee, can I make a wish on it?
- Do, my pretty.
Copy !req
178. Gee, I'd like a million
bucks, a sable wrap.
Copy !req
179. Ah, commonplace.
Copy !req
180. - A two-week ocean cruise?
- Extraordinary.
Copy !req
181. - What, Joker?
- Just the thing.
Copy !req
182. The most astonishing
coup anyone ever pulled.
Copy !req
183. Queenie, quick. Get
me that newspaper.
Copy !req
184. Here you are, Joker.
Copy !req
185. "SS Gotham, the new super luxury liner
going to be launched this Saturday." Yes!
Copy !req
186. Gosh. You think you could use your utility
belt to, uh, get me a cruise on the SS Gotham?
Copy !req
187. A cruise, mere petty pilfering.
Copy !req
188. I'll get you the whole ship.
Copy !req
189. - What?
- The whole ship?
Copy !req
190. - How, Joker?
- Ah.
Copy !req
191. First steps first.
Copy !req
192. - Our old nemesis, Batman.
- He'll try to stop us.
Copy !req
193. Exactly, exactly.
Copy !req
194. We must first eliminate
Batman from the scene.
Copy !req
195. Since you're the majority stockholder
in Gotham Shipping Lines, Bruce...
Copy !req
196. I hope you'll be pleased to hear
that I've arranged for Batman...
Copy !req
197. and the Boy Wonder to
christen the SS Gotham...
Copy !req
198. when she is
launched on Saturday.
Copy !req
199. What is it, commissioner?
What does it mean?
Copy !req
200. It looked like a
clown doll to me.
Copy !req
201. - It's that chaplain of chicanery again.
- The Joker.
Copy !req
202. Could he be subconsciously
pointing toward his next crime?
Copy !req
203. - Maybe he's gonna rob the circus.
- Oh, no, no, no. The circus left town last week.
Copy !req
204. Batman should know
about this immediately.
Copy !req
205. I'm sorry, commissioner,
but Batman is out for the day.
Copy !req
206. Yes, sir. Yes, sir. I'll
leave word that you called.
Copy !req
207. He's not there.
Copy !req
208. - What are we to do now, commissioner?
- I just don't know.
Copy !req
209. Well, don't worry, commissioner. I'm
sure the police department can handle it.
Copy !req
210. Uh, Dick and I are already
late for that Chopin concert.
Copy !req
211. - If you need anything, please let us know.
- Yes, I'll do that, Bruce.
Copy !req
212. Oh, by the way, it
may sound strange...
Copy !req
213. but I wonder if I could
keep that doll for a souvenir.
Copy !req
214. - Any use for it, O'Hara?
- Heh.
Copy !req
215. Not for me. The sooner we get this mocking
thing out of headquarters, the better I like it.
Copy !req
216. With all our compliments, Bruce.
Copy !req
217. A souvenir of your, uh,
narrow brush with crime. Ha, ha.
Copy !req
218. Thank you, commissioner.
Copy !req
219. We're already
late for the concert.
Copy !req
220. But if you need us for
anything, just let us know.
Copy !req
221. A fat lot of help he'd be
against someone like the Joker.
Copy !req
222. Oh, he's a good
man, Bruce Wayne.
Copy !req
223. But not even all his money
could buy us another Batman.
Copy !req
224. Gosh, nothing but perfectly
ordinary dust patterns.
Copy !req
225. Hmm.
Copy !req
226. Disappointing, all right.
Copy !req
227. I'd hoped for some clue to the
location of his secret hideout.
Copy !req
228. - Think it's worth checking for secret writing?
- I hardly think so.
Copy !req
229. That's not the Joker's
way of working.
Copy !req
230. But why did the Joker throw the doll through
the window? What was the point of it?
Copy !req
231. - I think I've got it.
- You have, Batman?
Copy !req
232. What other kind of clown is
there besides a circus clown?
Copy !req
233. I'll give you a hint.
Copy !req
234. Tonight there's going to be a live telecast
of the Gotham City Opera Company.
Copy !req
235. Golly, Batman,
I still don't get it.
Copy !req
236. They're performing a certain
celebrated Italian opera.
Copy !req
237. - Holy ravioli.
- You're warm.
Copy !req
238. Pagliacci.
Copy !req
239. That's beautiful.
Copy !req
240. I always... I always
loved that song.
Copy !req
241. Sing "Melancholy Baby."
Copy !req
242. Joker!
Copy !req
243. It's my mother-in-law.
Copy !req
244. They shouldn't be
out with those colds.
Copy !req
245. And now people of Gotham City...
Copy !req
246. the moment you have
all been waiting for.
Copy !req
247. The grand finale, the
climax of my performance...
Copy !req
248. the zenith of my career.
Copy !req
249. The unmasking of Batman
and Robin the Boy Wonder.
Copy !req
