Synopsis:
The Joker begins a crime wave using city departments as a theme. First he steals jewels from the International Fair using a giant vacuum cleaner as the Department of Sanitation. Next he tries to steal a company payroll at a construction site using the Department of Roads as his inspiration. Batman stops the crime, then tracks Joker back to his hideout.

At the Joker's hideout, Batman and Robin are captured. Joker then presides over a trial against Batman with his henchmen as jurors. Robin feigns illness, allowing Batman to work out an escape plan. After escaping Batman stops Joker's final crime based on the Health Department. Joker is then sent to prison.
