1. Come on, people.
Let's clean it up.
Copy !req
2. Howard, don't tell me
you can't carry more
Copy !req
3. than a piece
of crepe paper.
Copy !req
4. Hi, Max.
Sorry I'm late.
Copy !req
5. What new threat
was it this time?
Copy !req
6. Root Rot Man?
Copy !req
7. Oh, this time it really
was Mr. Wayne.
Copy !req
8. He needed a ride.
His back again. Where's Dana?
Copy !req
9. She got tired of waiting
for you.
Copy !req
10. Sounds like an old song,
doesn't it?
Copy !req
11. Well, if it isn't
Mr. School Spirit.
Copy !req
12. Don't worry, McGinnis.
Batman filled in for you.
Copy !req
13. Yeah.
Copy !req
14. What was that about?
Copy !req
15. I, uh, made
a little joke. Heh.
Copy !req
16. What kind of little joke?
Copy !req
17. Just something about how
this school sees more of Batman
Copy !req
18. than it does of you.
Copy !req
19. I know,
it wasn't that funny.
Copy !req
20. Max.
Copy !req
21. I'm sorry, okay?
Copy !req
22. You can't even joke
about this.
Copy !req
23. Understand?
Copy !req
24. It just slipped out.
Copy !req
25. And I don't get what
the big deal is, anyway.
Copy !req
26. If a few more people
knew your secret,
Copy !req
27. especially a certain
girlfriend,
Copy !req
28. life might be a lot easier
for you.
Copy !req
29. Oh, yeah.
Just like with the Diaz kid.
Copy !req
30. Remember how easy that got?
Copy !req
31. Come on, it was all over
the Net.
Copy !req
32. The Net's a big place,
McGinnis.
Copy !req
33. It happened right
after I started being Batman.
Copy !req
34. There was this kid,
Miguel Diaz,
Copy !req
35. around the same age
as my brother.
Copy !req
36. He was gonzo about that new
action toy, Soldier Sam.
Copy !req
37. It's all over for you,
Dr. Dark Blood.
Copy !req
38. And just how do you plan
to stop me?
Copy !req
39. With this.
Copy !req
40. Ugh!
Copy !req
41. And this.
Copy !req
42. Shouldn't he be playing?
Copy !req
43. He is playing.
Copy !req
44. I mean
with the other children.
Copy !req
45. Miguel?
Copy !req
46. Miguel?
Copy !req
47. Why don't you give
Soldier Sam a rest
Copy !req
48. and go play with the other boys?
But, Mom...
Copy !req
49. Come on, you've been
doing that all day.
Copy !req
50. Time for something else.
Copy !req
51. Such aggressive behavior.
Copy !req
52. Come on, hit him.
You can do it.
Copy !req
53. Flip him over.
Hit him. Hit him!
Copy !req
54. You can do it.
Come on, man.
Copy !req
55. Get him.
Beat him up!
Copy !req
56. Soldier Sam to the tower.
Copy !req
57. Meanwhile, way across town,
the Kobra Gang
Copy !req
58. was playing its own games.
Copy !req
59. They'd broken
into a credit reserve
Copy !req
60. to make
a fast withdrawal.
Copy !req
61. There was just one problem.
Copy !req
62. It's Batman.
Copy !req
63. He was waiting for us.
Copy !req
64. But how?
Copy !req
65. I've gotta try
to force 'em down.
Copy !req
66. I'll tell the commissioner.
Copy !req
67. He's gaining.
Copy !req
68. Let him. It'll make him
easier to hit.
Copy !req
69. There's a kid on top.
I'm going after him.
Copy !req
70. Somebody call
the fire department.
Copy !req
71. My baby.
Copy !req
72. It's all right.
Copy !req
73. Don't be afraid.
Copy !req
74. Get away from me.
Copy !req
75. Hey, I'm one of the good guys.
Copy !req
76. You don't look like a good guy.
Copy !req
77. This? It's just to scare
the bad guys, really.
Copy !req
78. Come on.
You have to trust me.
Copy !req
79. Oh, slag it. Look!
Copy !req
80. You're just a guy.
Copy !req
81. Yeah, a guy who doesn't wanna
see you barbecue.
Copy !req
82. Reach. You can do it.
Copy !req
83. Miguel.
Copy !req
84. Mom.
Copy !req
85. Great story.
Copy !req
86. All it did was prove
my point.
Copy !req
87. You saved the kid,
he saw your face,
Copy !req
88. and it wasn't a problem.
Copy !req
89. Now let's go tell Dana.
Copy !req
90. There's more?
Copy !req
91. Oh, yeah.
Copy !req
92. As you can probably guess,
they weren't happy
Copy !req
93. down at Kobra Headquarters.
Copy !req
94. Batman? Again?
Copy !req
95. It's almost as if he knows
what we're planning.
Copy !req
96. How do you suppose
that happened?
Copy !req
97. I wouldn't know.
Copy !req
98. Perhaps we should find out
exactly what you do know.
Copy !req
99. You know
it can't harm you.
Copy !req
100. It's a sensor,
not a transmitter.
Copy !req
101. It reads the fluctuation
in your synaptic response
Copy !req
102. and turns your thoughts
into pictures.
Copy !req
103. Is there anyone you told
about our operation?
Copy !req
104. No, I would never...
Copy !req
105. I'm telling you this
Copy !req
106. because
I still owe you something.
Copy !req
107. Make sure your creds are out
of the Gotham Bank by Monday.
Copy !req
108. I can't say any more than that.
Copy !req
109. Warning someone outside
the organization,
Copy !req
110. on a cell phone,
no less.
Copy !req
111. That's how Batman picked it up.
Copy !req
112. It was my brother.
I had to warn him. He's family.
Copy !req
113. Kobra is your only family.
Copy !req
114. And in your weakness,
you just betrayed us.
Copy !req
115. No! No, please!
Copy !req
116. No. No!
Copy !req
117. Cobras love rodents.
Copy !req
118. If only it were Batman.
Copy !req
119. Sir?
Copy !req
120. Something
you should see.
Copy !req
121. It must have been very scary.
Copy !req
122. I wasn't scared.
Not of Batman.
Copy !req
123. He's just a guy
like everybody else,
Copy !req
124. with his mask off,
I mean.
Copy !req
125. So the kid got on TV
and told the whole world
Copy !req
126. how he saw you
without your mask?
Copy !req
127. Yep.
Copy !req
128. And the old man?
He saw the report?
Copy !req
129. How could he not?
Copy !req
130. It was the news bite
of the day.
Copy !req
131. What were you thinking?
Copy !req
132. He would've died.
There was no other way.
Copy !req
133. There's always another way.
Copy !req
134. I don't see what you're
so worried about.
Copy !req
135. He's probably forgotten
what I look like.
Copy !req
136. That doesn't matter.
Copy !req
137. What matters
is that other people
Copy !req
138. think he knows
what you look like.
Copy !req
139. You've made that little boy
a target.
Copy !req
140. This is your block,
honey.
Copy !req
141. You be careful now,
and I'll see you next week.
Copy !req
142. And be sure
to keep practicing.
Copy !req
143. I will.
Copy !req
144. His piano teacher just walked
him to his corner.
Copy !req
145. Once he's settled in,
I'm gonna call it a night.
Copy !req
146. Wrong. He's no less
of a target indoors
Copy !req
147. than he is outdoors.
Copy !req
148. I can't follow him forever.
Copy !req
149. I've got a girlfriend,
homework, a life.
Copy !req
150. I won't be able
to do my job as Batman.
Copy !req
151. All right.
I'll call the Commissioner,
Copy !req
152. see what I can do about getting
you some relief.
Copy !req
153. Come on, kid.
Don't stop now.
Copy !req
154. Five more houses
and you're home.
Copy !req
155. Something to make you
a little more cooperative.
Copy !req
156. Batman, look out.
Copy !req
157. No!
Copy !req
158. Stay behind me.
Copy !req
159. The teeth of a Kobra are sharp.
Copy !req
160. So sharp,
you'll barely feel them.
Copy !req
161. But you will feel
its paralyzing poison.
Copy !req
162. Thanks for the information.
Copy !req
163. Step away from the boy,
Copy !req
164. and turn around slowly.
Copy !req
165. No, don't shoot.
It's Batman.
Copy !req
166. He's one of the good guys.
Copy !req
167. Sorry.
Copy !req
168. Can't be too careful,
you know?
Copy !req
169. Sure.
Just doing your job.
Copy !req
170. The Commissioner explained
everything?
Copy !req
171. Yeah. We're supposed
to take the kid in,
Copy !req
172. protective custody.
Copy !req
173. Hey, wait a minute.
Copy !req
174. Where's Sam?
I've lost Soldier Sam.
Copy !req
175. Here you go, big guy.
Copy !req
176. Thank you.
Copy !req
177. Terry, are you there?
Copy !req
178. I'm here.
Copy !req
179. Kobra just tried to make
a move on Miguel.
Copy !req
180. Everything okay?
Copy !req
181. Yeah. Cops were here
sweeping up.
Copy !req
182. Thanks for arranging things
with the commish.
Copy !req
183. I didn't.
She was in a meeting.
Copy !req
184. I couldn't get through.
Copy !req
185. Terry?
Copy !req
186. I think I just handed Miguel
over to Kobra.
Copy !req
187. Don't worry, Miguel.
I'll save you.
Copy !req
188. Pass it over here.
Hey, over here.
Copy !req
189. I'm wide open!
Copy !req
190. The cops were Kobra agents?
Copy !req
191. Yeah. They must have figured
I'd be watching over Miguel,
Copy !req
192. so they set up
a distraction.
Copy !req
193. The old man never woulda
fallen for it.
Copy !req
194. Hey, don't beat
yourself up.
Copy !req
195. You were starting out,
remember?
Copy !req
196. And I walked right into it.
Copy !req
197. Well?
Copy !req
198. Nothing. I can't believe
I could be so stupid.
Copy !req
199. They looked like cops.
Copy !req
200. And their cars,
they looked so real.
Copy !req
201. They probably were real.
Copy !req
202. Stolen.
And that's good for us.
Copy !req
203. Every Gotham police car
has its own locator frequency.
Copy !req
204. All I need
is the car number.
Copy !req
205. Oh, great.
Copy !req
206. What was it, uh...
Copy !req
207. two something? Three?
Copy !req
208. Slag it.
Copy !req
209. Wait.
Copy !req
210. I might not remember,
Copy !req
211. but the recorder
in the Batmobile will.
Copy !req
212. This isn't
the police station.
Copy !req
213. What an astute
little child.
Copy !req
214. Such clarity of thought.
Copy !req
215. Hook him up.
Copy !req
216. They've ditched the cars.
Don't see the boy.
Copy !req
217. Follow them.
Copy !req
218. Like you had to tell me.
Copy !req
219. No. I won't put it on.
I won't.
Copy !req
220. Sit still and behave,
or you won't get this back.
Copy !req
221. Ever.
Copy !req
222. Now, let's see what kind
of images we get.
Copy !req
223. What's wrong with it?
Copy !req
224. We've never used it
on a child.
Copy !req
225. Their minds are a bit
more erratic.
Copy !req
226. Now, Miguel,
Copy !req
227. I want you to remember
back to last week.
Copy !req
228. The fire
on top of the tower.
Copy !req
229. Excellent.
Copy !req
230. You were in danger.
Copy !req
231. Batman came out of the smoke
to save you.
Copy !req
232. That's right.
Copy !req
233. And as he got closer,
Copy !req
234. he took off his mask,
didn't he?
Copy !req
235. Uh-huh.
And what did he look like?
Copy !req
236. What's wrong?
He's losing his concentration.
Copy !req
237. Think.
What did he look like?
Copy !req
238. I wanna go home.
Copy !req
239. Can't I go home?
Copy !req
240. No.
Copy !req
241. Here. Relax.
Copy !req
242. All I want is for you
to concentrate
Copy !req
243. as hard as you can
on his face.
Copy !req
244. You can remember his face,
can't you?
Copy !req
245. Better. Much better.
Copy !req
246. That's it.
Copy !req
247. Any second now.
Copy !req
248. Yes! There it is.
Copy !req
249. The face of Batman.
Copy !req
250. Who is he?
I don't know.
Copy !req
251. Wait a minute. I've seen him
before. I'm sure of it.
Copy !req
252. Where?
I can't remember.
Copy !req
253. Send the picture
through the database.
Copy !req
254. It shouldn't take long
to come up with a name.
Copy !req
255. I wanna go home.
Copy !req
256. Of course.
Copy !req
257. Batman.
Copy !req
258. Step away from the door.
Copy !req
259. We're leaving.
Copy !req
260. No, you're not.
Copy !req
261. Ow! Hey!
Copy !req
262. What's so funny?
Copy !req
263. I might have lost
this one battle,
Copy !req
264. but you've lost the war.
Copy !req
265. See, we know what you look like
under that mask.
Copy !req
266. All of us do.
What?
Copy !req
267. You can thank
your little friend here.
Copy !req
268. I pulled a perfect image
of your face from his memory,
Copy !req
269. and I've uploaded it to every
Kobra site in the world.
Copy !req
270. It'll only be a matter of time
before my colleagues
Copy !req
271. find out your name.
Copy !req
272. Gotham Police. Open up!
Copy !req
273. I've done well.
Copy !req
274. I'll be remembered.
Copy !req
275. Don't!
Copy !req
276. So the kid imagined you
as an action figure.
Copy !req
277. Yeah.
I guess in his mind,
Copy !req
278. he was just substituting
one hero for another.
Copy !req
279. Don't you worry
he might remember
Copy !req
280. what you really look like?
Copy !req
281. It was smoky on that tower.
Copy !req
282. He was scared.
Copy !req
283. I don't think he ever got a good
look at my face to begin with.
Copy !req
284. Thanks.
Copy !req
285. How can you be
so sure?
Copy !req
286. 'Cause that was him.
Copy !req
287. I see him here
all the time.
Copy !req
288. And he's never recognized you?
Copy !req
289. Never.
Copy !req
290. Hey, Miguel?
Let's go.
Copy !req
291. I'm coming.
Copy !req
