Quotes
BATMAN: Could Randa Duane have been down here?
ALFRED: I certainly hope not but I can't say for certain, sir. I simply
can't remember anything beyond the time you left.
BATMAN: It's all right, Alfred. We'd better search the house.
ALFRED: Search for what, Master Bruce?
BATMAN: Anything unusual. She may have left a clue I can use. She's only
human.
--
RANDA: You have immobilized the maker.
HARDAC: His human imperfections endangers the plan. He must be improved
upon.
--
BULLOCK: Getting a little fresh air? How come I wasn't invited to this
little get together?
BATMAN (to Barbara): It's suddenly less pleasant up here. Excuse me.
--
BATMAN (to Barbara): Please let go of my cape.
--
HARDAC: The maker's concept was sound, but he did not go far enough
which is why I have taken over.
--
BATMAN: You did well. Thanks.
BARBARA: Any time.
GORDON: I'm getting too old for this kind of stuff.
BARBARA: I sort of liked it!
Review: This was a great action
episode indeed. It was exciting to see some of the surprises that this
episode had, mostly the fight between Batman and Bullock on the top of
Police Headquarters. The Bruce Wayne 'exclusive club' scene was good
too, and the ending fight between Batman and Randa was nicely finished.
This episode also began the career of Batgirl in Barbara's mind with her
telling Gordon and Batman then she enjoyed being apart of the action. It
was neat to see that the writers were really thinking ahead.
The animation was the same of the previous episode, the grimmer looking,
chunky Batman fitting the story well. Barbara Gordon was also well
drawn, which she usually isn't. There's just something about her face
that it very difficult to animate.
