''Where tracks and golf balls roll
and wind.

''Round colored banners of all kind.

''Here, new instructions you will find_'

MAN: (ON PA) You've come
to the right plaee. Mr. MeWhirter.

You won't be able to find me.

Just follow the sound of my voice.

Who the devil are you?

Well, for a diplomatic courier,
you're not very diplomatic, are you?

lf you're my contact,
what's the countersign?

(TUTTING) Patience, patience.

All your questions will be answered,
dear boy,

if you'll simply follow
the runn�ng lights.

Okay, l'm here. Now what?

(GASPS)

(GRUNTING)

Now then, about that
eollection of bearer bonds

you're supposed to transport,

if you'll just tell me
where l can find them,

you might get out oF here alive.

(STRAINING)

All right! All right, l'll tell you!

Good call. Now, hurry up.

l hate it when people talk
with their mouth full. (CHUCKLING)

All we know is this, last night,
the International Relief Consortium

was supposed to receive a delivery
from one of their couriers.

This guy. Name's McWhirter.

He's lucky to be alive.

He was supposed to pick up
and deliver a donation.

A diplomatic pouch containing
_750,OOO in bearer bonds

earmarked for humanitarian aid-

To starving refugees in Eastern Europe.
Yeah, l know.

Only McWhirter never showed up.

Somebody else got to the bonds
before he did.

And now they're missing.

The same somebody who lured him into
that quicksand trap you mentioned?

You know who that sounds like,
don't you? Wormwood.

The Interrogator.

The guy who specializes in
using deathtraps

to pry in Formation out of his victims?

Terrific. Look up ''slippery''
in the dictionary,

and you get Josiah Wormwood.

Well, l guess if anyone can
pin something on him

and make it stick, you can.

Maybe. Right now, though,
we're not even sure he's in town.

But l think l know which one
ofWormwood's associates

might be able to give me
that information.

Oh, yeah, l remember this clown.

Nothing but a two-bit con man.

But a continental type, a real smoothie,

the kind who'll do anyth�ng
For a free meal.

CaIls himself ''The Baron.''

Ladies and gentlemen,
our guest speaker this evening

Baron Waclaw Jozek.

(AUDIENCE APPLAUDING)

Madam President, honored guests,

this is a rare pleasure for me.

Unaccustomed as l am to being
sought after...

(YELLS)

(SCREAMING)

(CLAMoRING)

JOZEK: No, no, no!

(WAILING)

No, no, no!

How dare you manhandle me.

l want information from you.

By the way,
l hope you're not afraid of heights.

(SCREAMING)

(SoBBING)

BATMAN: That's all you have on
your friend Wormwood?

l've told you all l know.

What more do you want?
Let me down. (WHIMPERING)

Just one more thing, Baron.

l suggest that for your health

you take a vacation,
somewhere far away from Gotham City.

(GRoWLING)

(KNoCKING m DooR)

Come in.

(SIGHS) This had better
be important, Waclaw.

lt ig, to me.

l want the Batman's cape and cowl.

And l want you to get them for me.

Hmm. Humble the legendary Batman?

l must admit,
it is an intriguing challenge.

But l'm afraid l can't contain
my curiosity.

l must know, what do you want them for?

l will be glad to tell you that,
dear Wormwood,

if you'll tell me how you got
those bearer bonds

away from
the International RelieF Consortium.

l don't know what you're talking about.

(LAUGHING) Have it your way.

ln that case, l will say

only that you will be very well paid
to do as l request

without further questions.

All right, l'll get you
the Batman's cape and cowl.

That won't be difficult.

He is only human, after all.

Got a new toy, l see.

l figure it might come in handy.

lt might get you in trouble
with the mayor.

Let me worry about the mayor.

Here, have a look at this.

''Where iron horses go to rot
and children toot their horns a lot...

''A damsel's pleas shall come to naught.''

Do you know what it means?

Don't you?

Looking for someone, Batman?

Sorry, you won't f�nd me in there.

However, you wil( f�nd

a trap!

(STRAINING)

(SCREAMING)

Now then, you have approximately
one m�nute to save that young woman.

(SCREAMING)

But l'll remove her from ieopardy

if you simply surrender
your cape and cowl.

You can push it through the little
opening at the base ofthe engine door.

WOMAN: (SCREAMING) Herp! Please, herp!

(SCREAMING)

(SoBBING)

One second leFt.

A hologram?

(ENGINE STARTING)

JOZEK: (ON PHONE) Do you have the items?

Uh, no.

Uh, the first apparatus...

The trap at the old railway exhib�t?

Yes. He beat �t.

So there will have to be others?

Only one. And this time,
l shall put the man himself in jeopardy.

l have a facility at
De Larues Wax Museum

that will serve our purposes nicely.

Just see that you succeed.

Oh, l will. And once you have what
you want, you must tell me why--

-(LINE DISCoNNECTS)
-Well!

BATMAN:
''Where Washington and young Babe Ruth

''stand side by side
with John Wilkes Booth

''Batman will find a plan uncouth_'

Well, what do you think this one means?

Those Famous figures standing
around together?

De Larues Wax Museum, what else?

Oh. Of course.

WORMWOOD: (ON PA) Overhere, Batman.

That's it. Come right �n.

Now, if l might call your attention

to the panel sliding open
along the ceiling.

lt's uncovering
a 20,OO_watt halogen bulb.

l don't actually know how hot
20,OOO watts make a room,

but l do know that it melts wax.

And eventually, it will melt you.

(YELLS)

(GRUNTS)

Of course, you can save yourself simply
by giving me your cape and cowl.

After all, it looks I�ke your weapons
are covered with wax.

No hury. l'll wait. (CHUCKLING)

Oh, vey �nventive.
Do you suppose it wiIl work?

(GRoANING)

(GRUNTING)

Congratulations. But don't breathe
too deeply, Batman.

lt seems that when you shattered
the lamp,

you triggered the release oFa tox�c
nerve gas from a tank in the ceil�ng.

Now, your cape and cowl, please.

(CoUGHING)

All right. All right. Turn off the gas.

(CoUGHING)

You win. (COUGHING)

WORMWOOD: (ON PA) _h. Nothing like
a breath of fresh air, eh, Batman?

(GRoWLING)

And now, your eape and cowI, pIease.

Satisfied?

Actually, no.

l wonder if you would put those down
neatly over here, by the light.

A second mask?

Not as conFident as we'd seem then,
are we? (CHUCKLING)

Hmm. Well, keep your silly identity.
These are aIl I requ�re.

(GRoWLING)

WORMWOOD: Stop stalling, Jozek.

l've got the goods.

Have you got my certi Fied check?

l have indeed.

Ah, but first,
Iet us drink to our success.

(CHUCKLING) On one condition.

Will you tell me why you wanted
Batman's cape and cowl, finally?

Ah, but you know my condition.
You must tell me your secret.

Then l will tell you mine.

What did you do
with those bonds? (CHUCKLING)

And who commissioned their theft?

(SIGHING) If you really want to know,

an agent of the Quirian Emirates
will get the bonds

from a locker
at Pan-Europa Airways tomorrow

when l meet him there to give him
this key.

Now, what will you do
with the cape and cowl?

(LAUGHING)

l am going to wear them.

(GASPS)

You're not Jozek?

You were playing. Playing me for a Fool.

BATMAN :
From the day you First walked in here.

lt was you l was dealing with all along!

BATMAN: Give me the key.

If you rea)ly want to know,

an agent of the Quirian Em�rate_...

The bugs in the room picked up
the whole story on tape.

...at Pan-Europa A�rways tomorrow.

-Thank you, Commissioner.
-Thank you.

J
And thank Jozek for the use of the hall
if he ever returns from Europe.

When we collared the Quirian agent
at the airport, he sang like a bird.

And he fingered you as the guy
who was gonna sell him the bonds.

Oh, l almost forgot.

This came For you.

''Confinement will speed your reform.
But long, cold nights will be the norm.

''So here's a thing to keep you warm''?

Well.
