Synopsis:
While trying to apprehend some hoods, Batman and Robin witness the return of Bat-Mite. The imp prolongs the battle between the Dynamic duo and the crooks for his own enjoyment. After the crooks are captured, Batman scolds Bat-Mite, causing him to leave.

Bat-Mite appears elsewhere and meets Batwoman. When Batwoman tries to catch some more crooks from the Hobby Robber’s gang, Bat-Mite again, intervenes to extend the fight. Batwoman also chases off Bat-Mite.

Bat-Mite returns to the Batcave where he overhears Batman’s plan to catch the Hobby Robber. He then tells Batwoman in hopes that she will forgive his mischief. When Batman is captured by the gang leader, Batwoman arrives to save him and apprehend the last of the gang. Bat-Mite’s help saved the Caped Crusaders, and they finally appreciate him.
