Synopsis:
The Weather Wizard comes to Gotham City and announces that he has stolen three valuable treasures without being caught. Art collector Felix Bayard worries that his priceless drinking cup has been stolen and replaced by a forgery. He calls an art expert to verify the artifact, but the expert is really the Weather Wizard, who then steals the cup.

When Batman learns of the theft, he plans a trap for the Weather Wizard by taking a ruby from the safe of Bruce Wayne and making it look like a robbery. Weather Wizard tries to take the ruby from the thief only to discover it is Batman. Still, the Wizard turns the tables on his would-be captor by trapping Batman in a box of ice.

Batman manages to escape the ice trap. He then calls Robin who was assigned to follow the Weather Wizard. Batman heads off the crook in the act of making a third theft. This time Batman successfully apprehends the Weather Wizard and returns him to prison.
