Synopsis:
While Batman and Batwoman are out of town Bat-Girl teams up with Robin to defend Gotham City. Bat-Girl makes advances toward Robin, but he tells her he is involved with another woman. Bat-Girl is upset, and Bat-Mire appears to offer her a solution.

With the imp’s help, Bat-Girl impresses Robin with her acrobatic crimefighting skill and makes him jealous when she kisses a teen idol. However, the plan backfires as Bat-Girl is captured by a criminal gang. Bat-Mite confesses his involvement to Robin, and together they free Bat-Girl and catch the gang.

When Batman returns, Robin reveals that the other woman in his life is lady justice. He has chosen not to involve himself romantically with anyone until he retires, just like his mentor. Batman thinks Robin is too young to make such a decision, so Bat-Girl kisses him and renews her pursuit of the Boy Wonder.
