Let's Lock Up the Mob!
- Lucius Fox talks to the board of directors at Wayne Enterprises, while Bruce catches some much-needed sleep at the other end of the table.
- It's all a sham, however, and when the others leave, Bruce pops up and tells Lucius to scuttle the deal. Mr. Lau stinks like low tide.
- Harvey and Rachel are at a fancy dinner when Bruce shows up to crash their date with a Russian ballerina on his arm. The four discuss Batman and why a city celebrates someone who should probably be in a rubber room.
- Later, the leaders of Gotham's underworld attend a meeting to basically wring their hands and wonder what they're gonna do about this Batman guy. Mr. Lau joins them by closed-circuit TV, assuring them that their money is safe with him in Hong Kong.
- The Joker interrupts their meeting, killing one guy with a magic pencil trick, then offering to kill Batman for half of everything the Mob has. They balk and one of them—Gambol—offers a million dollars for the Joker's head.
- He regrets that a short time later when the Joker sneaks into his headquarters, pretending to be his own dead body, then dispatches Gambol with a creepy (and probably fake) story about the Joker's father.
- Harvey stands on the rooftop with the Bat Signal as Batman and Gordon appear. Lau managed to flee to China, a country that will not extradite a national. Harvey and Gordon argue a bit, and Batman diffuses it by offering to get Lau for them if Harvey honestly thinks he can put Lau in prison.
- Bruce meets with Lucius Fox in the basement of Wayne Enterprises (the perfect place for clandestine skulking) where they discuss a solution for covertly airlifting a person without having to land the plane.
- Bruce Wayne heads out after Mr. Lau, covering it up by absconding with the entire ballet company on his yacht. He then sets off for Hong Kong, leaving Alfred to fend off those vicious ballerinas by himself.
- Fox arrives in Hong Kong where he meets with Lau. He leaves a dummy phone at the front desk, then informs Lau that Wayne Enterprises cannot do business with him.
- He runs into Bruce on a crowded street tunnel where he explains that the phone he left sends a radar pulse that will allow him to map the building and pinpoint Mr. Lau's location.
- Batman broods at the tippy top of a Hong Kong skyscraper for a bit, then swoops into Lau's little fortress, and takes him for a ride using that nifty airlifting thing that he and Fox discussed back at Wayne Enterprises.
- Gordon discovers Lau neatly giftwrapped on the step of the GPD.
- Rachel questions Lau and is delighted to discover that they can indeed get to the Mob by prosecuting Lau under the RICO Law (an actual law that was used in the '70s to bring down the American Mafia). High fives and arrest warrants all around!
