Anarky returns and sets a trap for both Batman and the League of Assassins, locking them in a building with a fatal airborne virus.
Previously on
Beware the Batman...
I sincerely hope you survive
so we can finish this properly.
You, the black king,
representing order,
and I, the white king...
Well, I'm Anarky.
Good evening, gentlemen.
What do we have here?
A gift for me?
Oh, good!
I was hoping you'd say that!
That's the spirit.
But are you sure
you're ready to die?
I thought as much.
You're going to make me
very happy.
Come on, Folds!
You're gonna fold.
You always fold.
Just do it already.
Fold!
- What?
- Boys! Boys!
If you want a real game,
invite a lady to play.
Come on. Deal me in.
If I win, you guys tell me where
the League of Assassins is hiding.
If I lose,
you still tell me.
All in.
You were about to tell us
where to find the League.
Let them go.
We need to evacuate
the building.
We don't trade lives
for information.
No, but we need to find the League
before it's too late to stop them.
We sacrifice
for the greater good.
I grant you one
chance for redemption.
Recover the package
and your lives may be spared.
Tomorrow I will have the package
or your heads.
Who are you?
You may call me Anarky.
I'm the one who stole
your precious cargo.
Now, now. There's
no need for hostility.
I'd be happy to return it to you
in exchange for a small favor.
You dare bargain
with the League of Assassins?
Are you mad?
Without question.
This is the door
to the level three vault
located deep within Gotham's
Contagion Research Center.
Behind it, are some of the
world's most lethal contaminants
including Calibosix,
a delightful mutative toxin.
Bring the Calibosix to me
and what is yours
will be yours again.
So, do we have a deal?
Ralphy the Razor.
I understand why you
won't talk about the League.
You're afraid of your boss
Tobias Whale.
But there's something
you should know.
Tobias Whale is afraid of me.
Think about it. We'll wait.
Huh?
Are you okay, Batman?
I hope I didn't blow you up.
I just wanted to be sure
I had your full attention.
Is your hunt for the League
going well?
Anarky!
You remember!
And who's this?
A new pet?
Why don't you come down here in
person so we can meet foot to face?
Ooh!
I like her, Batman!
She's like the pepper
to your salt.
What do you know
about the League?
I know exactly where they are.
Another one of your games?
Perhaps.
Or perhaps they're breaking into the
Contagion Research Center as we speak.
There's only one way
to find out.
Oh, one more thing.
Duck!
I think that went well.
Don't you?
Of course.
We do have common desires.
Power, upheaval, infamy...
You and I now have a front
row seat to the end of Gotham.
You know it's a trap, right?
Of course. But Anarky
always laces his lies with truth.
A CRC breach
could mean an epidemic.
We can't risk that.
What about the police?
This can't wait for the police.
Computer, how fast can
you put together a primer
on the CRC's
layout and security?
Very fast, Batman.
The Contagion Research Center
or CRC
studies and develops
counter-measures
for toxins ranging
from infectious diseases
to synthetic contaminants.
Multiple security measures
designed by Wayne Industries
are in use to keep all toxins
safely contained.
May I help you, ma'am?
All security doors are equipped
with multi mobile
biometric locks.
The most secure system
in existence.
A positive simultaneous match
of a recognized face,
iris, voice and handprint set
is required to open
all security doors.
May I help you, ma'am?
Research facilities
are housed on three tier levels.
Toxicity severity increases
with each level.
Mild contaminants
are contained on level one,
moderate threats on level two
and severe toxins
on level three.
In the event of a severe
toxin release,
CRC emergency breach protocol
is engaged.
If the toxin reaches level one
high temperature explosives
embedded in the structure
will incinerate the complex
to prevent an outbreak.
But that is
a worst-case scenario.
If the explosion disrupts
anything inside the vault
you'll be dead
before the smoke clears.
Batman!
You should worry less
about what's behind that door
and more about
what's in front of it.
You were saying?
I will dearly miss both of you.
If you want this,
you'll have to take it.
No, I won't.
Calibosix.
Interesting.
Interesting?
Oh, there's so much more
than that, Batman!
They're a monstrous
game changer.
Isn't Calibosix divine?
I hate that guy.
Calibosix. Cellular mutation
and disintegration.
90% mortality rate.
Not good.
Ah!
What are you doing?
If we leave her in
there, we're no better than she is.
Shiva, move!
That was a close one.
The good news is those two
lovelies won't stop
until every last corner
of Gotham is infected.
Starting with you three!
I really hate that guy.
Anarky played us so we'd
unleash an epidemic for him.
I saw anti-serum in the vault.
If we go back into the lab...
No! Calibosix spreads
through direct contact.
If we risk a confrontation
we could all get infected.
We have to stay ahead
of those two and out of reach.
Two choices.
Cooperate or die.
Batman's code of honor
will be Gotham's doom.
But the fun is just starting.
Look.
I'll make this simple, people.
Every living creature in this
circle needs to be evacuated.
Now, go.
Any way to speed this up?
No.
And if those Franken-ninjas make
it to level one before we get out,
we get torched too?
Yes.
What's wrong, Katana?
Were you planning
to live past today?
Don't be so glum, my treasures.
You're not going
to perish alone.
All of Gotham City
will be right behind you.
Oops, here comes trouble.
Tell McCaffrey to pull
those fire trucks back.
The snipers need a clear line
of sight to the entrance.
Lieutenant Gordon? Jocelyn
Kilroy, CRC Executive Director.
Rest assured. The situation
is under control.
Yes, I know.
Because I'm controlling it.
Hence this tax-funded
boondoggle on wheels.
I have authorization from the
mayor's office to initiate breach protocol.
Complete structural
incineration.
Your personnel
should withdraw immediately.
I'm not sure
we're there yet, Miss...
Kilroy.
And, yes, we are.
We finally tapped into the
surveillance feed, Lieutenant.
You got to see this.
Batman?
I understand why you aided
my escape from the lab, Batman.
You're a hero.
You can't help yourself.
That's who you are.
But you, Katana...
I have seen your true nature.
You would have left me to die.
Because at heart
you're a killer.
Just like me.
You and I are nothing alike.
No, your anger
suggests otherwise.
Wanna see my true nature?
Keep talking.
Lieutenant,
Batman's fate is irrelevant.
This is a public safety issue.
To protect the city
we have to move now.
We need to give Batman a chance.
I need to do
nothing of the sort.
I have authorization from the
mayor to proceed immediately.
Not anymore.
Yes, Mayor. As you wish.
You bought him some time.
But not much.
Katana!
What are you doing?
Guess I'm sacrificing for
the greater good like you said.
Shiva's wrong.
I'm not a killer.
As soon as you're outside,
torch the building.
Such a touching moment.
Such a selfless act.
And such a waste,
since it will only delay
the inevitable.
Whoa!
That lady just clocked Batman.
Can it, O'Brien.
We are initiating
breach protocol.
Your people have five minutes
to clear the area.
You can't. You don't have
the mayor's approval for that.
No, I have
the governor's approval.
The clock is ticking,
Lieutenant.
Breach protocol engaged.
Structural incineration
in five minutes.
Thank you. Much better.
Pity. The building
may kill you before I do.
Don't count on it, Lady.
Incineration in four minutes.
Incineration in three minutes.
End of the line, guys.
One way or the other.
Ah! Ugh!
What are you doing here?
I had some time to kill.
I did what you said to do.
And my sacrifice would
have kept Gotham safe.
So why did you risk
coming back for me?
Some things are too valuable
to be sacrificed.
Incineration in one minute.
We need to move.
Are you okay?
Yeah, let's go. I'm fine.
You're infected.
Incineration in 30 seconds.
10, 9, 8,
7, 6, 5,
4, 3, 2..
Breach protocol canceled.
All CRC staff is accounted for.
And those ninjas
got the serum just in time.
They'll be 100% when they
land in a cell at Blackgate.
Still no sign of Lady Shiva.
But we'll find her.
No.
She's already gone.
The best laid plans of
mice and madmen often go awry.
May you put this treasure
to better use.
No hard feelings.
Welcome back, Master.
Gotham will soon bow
to its new ruler,
Ra's al Ghul.
Beware the Batman...
I sincerely hope you survive
so we can finish this properly.
You, the black king,
representing order,
and I, the white king...
Well, I'm Anarky.
