(EXPLoSloN)

You do good work, Mr...

What did you say your name was?

Nitro, Mr. Daggett,

on account of explosives
are my business.

l assume Crocker explained
the terms of your employment, Mr. Nitro?

Sure. There's an old gas line
running under the whole block.

l make it look like
the pipeline ruptured,

so the iob can't be traced to you.

lt's to be done while l give my speech
to the Gotham Better Business Council.

9:OO exactly.

Trust me, when the hands
on that watch hit nine,

boom.

As expected, the city zoning board
today rejected a request

by the Daggett Development Corporation
to raze a bJoek of landmark brownstones

along Gotham's Park Row.

Thirty years ago,

Park Row was Gotham City's
most glamorous address.

8ut, in recent years,
the area has suflered a decline.

And today, it is a slum better known
as the infamous ''Crime Alley.~

But, to its �nhabitants,

many of whom
spoke at the zoning board today,

Cr�me Al(ey is the only home they have,

and they fear its loss.

Others, l�ke Roland Daggett, director
of the Daggett Development torporat�on,

see the s�tuation d�FFerently.

lt's tragic.

Park ftow may be an historical landmark,

but it's also a breeding ground
for crime.

OF course, as much as we disagree
w�th the _oning board's decision.

our hands are tied.

(GRUNTING)

Roland Daggett
is up to something, Alfred.

That almost goes without saying,
doesn't it, sir?

l don't know what it is yet, but l will.

You don't want to be late
for your 8:OO appointment, sir.

Have l ever been late?

No, gir.

Not once in all these years.

CROCKER: Urban redevelopment, lady.

That's what this is all about.

All set. We just gotta do
that old hotel down the street.

And then when 9:OO rolls around...

Boom! Instant slum clearance.

Next stop, mini-mall.

You can't destroy that hotel.

This block may be abandoned,

but that building

You've got to get the people out.

DAGGETT: Gentlemen,

Gotham City is at a crossroads.

As businessmen,
the choice we face is clear.

lt's time we decide where we stand.

Are we for progress or against it?

For the future or for the past?

For the weak or for the strong?

(BoMB TICKING)

ln short,

we cannot allow
the underclass to hinder us

from building a better tomorrow.

Mr. Daggett. Mr. Daggett.
Any comments on this tragedy?

MAN: Does this a Ffect your plans
for redevelopment, Mr. Daggett?

lt's a sad fact,

but you have to expect
violence in Crime Alley.

These people don't value
human life like we do.

BATMAN: Nobody values human life
like you do, Daggett.

Excuse me.

LESLIE: Let it go.

Daggett won't escape the law forever.

Good people lived here once.

Good people still live in Crime Alley.
