Batman: Caped Crusader 2.02

Rocket's Red Glare

Batman investigates a break-in at Triad Industries which leads him to discover that Triad's top scientist, Dr. Roxanne Sutton isn't dead. Gunther Hardwick, Armand Lydecker, and Warren Lawford (the three men who run Triad) thought they had dealt with her. Batman doesn't understand why Sutton is sabotaging Triad's attempts to capitalize on her inventions and tries to stop her. It is almost too late when he finally changes sides and chooses to help her.

Thoughts

There is a brief moment at the very end of the episode involving someone stealing from Hugo Strange. It looks like Strange is dead. The thief is whistling In the Hall of the Mountain King.

Batman: Caped Crusader 2.01

Brute Force

The trial of Rupert Thorne is about to begin. The prosecution's star witness is Julian Gregory, Thorne's accountant. Edward Nygma, one of Thorne's enforcers, is in charge of finding the accountant (aka the squealer) and bumping him off.

Nygma turns to Hugo Strange for some help. Strange gives him a solution that Nygma injects into one of his unsuspecting lackeys. The lackey grows to monstrous proportions and attempts to murder the squealer. Batman, Montoya, and several other police officers get in the way of the monster man.

The fight ends when Batman kills the monster man with his car, although it takes several attempts to get the job done. The accountant makes it to court and testifies against Thorne, but the judge throws out the case against Thorne.
