Batman and Robin approached the two girls in the Batmobile while the kids kept searching.

"Batman! Are we ever glad to see you" said Patty.

"Everything alright?" said Batman.

"Yes. We've found evidence while searching Actorville" said Cathy.

"You searched Actorville? Ladies, searching that place isn't safe right now" said Batman.

"You're telling us. The people there are so frazzled by what happened, they ain't showing us smiles" said Patty.

"Now. What's your name dear?" said Batman to Patty.

"Patty Lane, sir. I'm Calvin's girlfriend" said Patty.

"Alright then, Patty. Show Robin and I what you've got for evidence" said Batman.

"Well, Mr Batman, the only way for you to see is to actually be in Actorville" said Cathy.

"I see. You didn't tell me your name" said Batman.

"It's Cathy Lane. I'm her cousin" said Cathy.

"Very well. Robin! Let us follow these girls to Actorville. They'll show us their evidence" said Batman.

"We heard about Robin, sir" said Cathy.

"Is he really pregnant?" said Patty.

"I'm afraid so" said Batman.

Robin was able to stand and follow the girls with Batman.

"Oh, Robin, dear, are you sure you are able to come?" said Cathy.

"I can't say I'm positive, but I think so" said Robin.

"Fair enough" said Patty.

She and Cathy took Batman and Robin to the platform that Robin was launched off of.

"This platform. When we lifted it, there was a spring underneath it" said Cathy.

"Holy mainsprings" said Robin.

"I couldn't have said it better myself" said Patty.

"The Warriors said they saw it launch me over there" said Robin.

"But how?" said Cathy.

"It's an old story, Ms Cathy. Old as Eve and the Apple. That snake, the Joker must have built in a jack-in-the-box spring that would launch Robin in that direction when he stepped on it" Batman explained.

"Wow! Boy, that's some powerful stuff" said Patty.

The Joker showed his face and said "Yes, yes. And isn't it deliciously powerful?"

"Joker! What is the meaning of this?" said Batman.

"That's the Joker? He's not as creepy as I thought" said Patty.

"Creepy? Why, Miss Patty, that's never my intention. My intentions are just to be odd" said the Joker.

"It is creepy that you know my cousin's name. Have you been watching us?" said Cathy.

"I have, my dear Cathy. You are a very smart girl" said the Joker.

"Do you have any idea how odd you are? Because you're freaking me out" said Patty.

"Of course. I have every idea how odd I am. And I love it" said the Joker.

He sang about his oddities.

My head begins to jingle most every time I nod

Cause obviously, quite obviously, I'm odd

Each Christmas, I go fishing to catch a Christmas cod

Cause obviously, quite obviously I'm odd

When I was just a boy, they said I'd be a gem

But now that I'm the Joker, it's odd how odd I am

I own a feather pillow, but I slumber on the sod

Cause obviously, quite obviously, I'm odd

When I was just a boy, they said I'd be a gem

But now that I'm the Joker, it's odd how odd I am

Most clowns don't have mustaches, but mine is like a beard

Cause obviously... quite obviously

I'm weird!
