In the first story by Alan Moore, Clayface III has fallen in love with a mannequin, and he believes Batman is trying to steal her away from him. Even if Batman can't save Preston's Payne's sanity, can he at least save their marriage?
Then, in a story by writer Max Allan Collins the Penguin claims to have reformed after meeting a woman through a "Lonely Hearts Club," but Batman isn't buying it. But if he's wrong, he risks destroying the happiness of two people, even if one IS the Penguin. Has the old bird really turned over a new leaf, or is this just yet another scheme?
