Synopsis:
Two crooks hiding in the underground caves near Gotham City stumble upon a chamber that allows them to hear echoes from the Bat-Cave. The crooks, Mitch and Beany, learn that Batman has dreamed up an inescapable trap. To capitalize on their newfound knowledge, the crooks make a bet with some gangsters, then lure Batman into the trap they constructed identical to the one in Batman's dream. When faced with death from two directions, Batman comes up with a previously unforeseen solution to the trap and escapes. The gangsters lose the bet, and Batman takes them to jail.
