The Batman and Robin are searching for the Joker ,who recently abducted Catwoman. They visit McSurleys Bar to interrogate Profile, an Information Broker. After a short interrogation, Profile gives the Batman the Jokers whereabouts at Jester Novelties Factory. The Joker using Dr. Moon has recalibrated the Catwoman's brain trying to find out the Batmans identity only to go hysterical when the Catwoman barely manages to say "Robert Redford". The Batman and Robin arrive at Jester Novelties factory and quickly dispatch Jokers Goons. The Batman finds the Joker in his hovercraft escaping with Catwoman. A brainwashed Catwoman gets up and knocks the Batman from the escaping hovercraft. The Batman is convinced that Joker is trying to turn Catwoman back to her old ways by setting up a Cat-Crime. The Batman realizes that Catwoman might commit a crime using the millionaire Benson's heiress who is in a cataleptic trance. Catwoman leads the Joker to the Bensons thinking that they are the Batman and Robin. Catwoman puts the Bensons in a Cat's Cradle. The Batman and Robin arrive foil the Joker plans and take on his goons saving the Bensons from the Joker and what he was planning. Catwoman waits for the Joker to climb up her catgut ladder as a means of escape only to have her cut it and leave him to the Batman to deal the Jokers punishment.
