They save Polo's life, but they are unable to stop his rival, Bahung, from taking over Polo's territory and troops with a deceitful trick.
Batman and Robin then ride to warn Kubla Khan about Bahung's invasion. To earn the Khan's trust, Batman and Robin perform circus tricks. They then expose a traitor, Wong Tso, who had conspired with Bahung. With the warning Khan is able to prepare by using newly invented gunpowder to create rockets. He uses Batman's face to scare off the attackers. The Dynamic Duo then return to their own time period.
