Synopsis:
Batman receives a phone call from Commissioner Gordon, telling him that Fred Purley has been paroled. Purley was put in prison by Gordon and made threats against him. Batman goes to meet Gordon and nearly falls into a trap. Purley has already kidnapped the Commissioner. Batman and Robin then track down the crook before the ex-con can kill Gordon. Batman is able to find them with the help of a make-shift bat-signal which Purley accidentally lighted. Batman arrives in time, and Gordon is rescued.
