Synopsis:
Joker lures Batman into a trap and removes the Caped Crusaders cowl before escaping. With Batman’s identity known, the Joker believes that the crimefighter won’t attempt to stop his crimes. Batman continues trying to capture his nemesis, but is once again caught by the Joker. Joker exposes Batman’s face again only to find that it is a robot. The real Batman planned a trap and surprises the Joker. His identity is safe because a bright light was shining in the Joker’s eyes when he initially looked at Bruce’s unmasked face; therefore Joker never saw the face clearly.
