<i>Common brown bats.</i>

179
00:13:54,564 --> 00:13:55,899
They shouldn't pose a problem.

180
00:13:56,107 --> 00:13:57,817
As the weather gets colder,
they'll move on.

181
00:13:58,151 --> 00:13:59,527
<i>What about the sound on the tape?</i>

182
00:13:59,861 --> 00:14:01,154
It's actually two sounds.

183
00:14:01,321 --> 00:14:02,739
Starlings and brown bats.

184
00:14:03,198 --> 00:14:05,116
Probably fighting over
a nest in your chimney.

185
00:14:05,575 --> 00:14:06,659
Appreciate the help, Doc.

186
00:14:06,951 --> 00:14:09,412
I'll return the favor
next time you're raising funds.

187
00:14:09,579 --> 00:14:10,705
Bye-bye.

188
00:14:11,122 --> 00:14:12,499
This computer checked that fiber

189
00:14:12,832 --> 00:14:14,876
against every animal species
known to man.

190
00:14:15,960 --> 00:14:18,671
I went to them because I thought
they might know something we didn't.

191
00:14:19,464 --> 00:14:21,132
That hair wasn't a brown bat's.

192
00:14:21,966 --> 00:14:24,094
And those melodic sounds?

193
00:14:24,469 --> 00:14:27,347
Computer, check against combined sounds.

194
00:14:27,680 --> 00:14:29,349
Starlings and brown bats.

195
00:14:32,268 --> 00:14:33,395
<i>Negative.</i>

196
00:14:33,603 --> 00:14:35,397
<i>Sounds not originated
by either species.</i>

197
00:14:37,023 --> 00:14:38,108
I would say, sir,

198
00:14:38,358 --> 00:14:40,902
that we have ourselves an incongruity.

199
00:14:41,194 --> 00:14:42,487
Incongruity, Alfred?

200
00:14:43,029 --> 00:14:44,155
He's lying.

201
00:14:44,406 --> 00:14:46,157
And I'm gonna find out why.

202
00:15:10,056 --> 00:15:11,307

207
00:15:54,851 --> 00:15:55,894
Who's back there?

208
00:15:57,061 --> 00:15:59,564
You!
I'm looking for Dr. March.

209
00:15:59,981 --> 00:16:01,566
He's not here, Batman.

210
00:16:04,235 --> 00:16:05,236
Where is he?

211
00:16:05,403 --> 00:16:07,780
Giving a lecture
on human extinction

212
00:16:07,947 --> 00:16:09,199
and bat evolution.

213
00:16:09,532 --> 00:16:11,284
He's really quite brilliant.

214
00:16:11,868 --> 00:16:13,536
He's misguided and a thief.

215
00:16:13,953 --> 00:16:15,371
He's just a theorist.

216
00:16:15,747 --> 00:16:17,290
He was afraid
to put it to the test.

217
00:16:17,790 --> 00:16:19,042
But I wasn't.

218
00:16:19,542 --> 00:16:21,252
I knew we'd discovered a formula

219
00:16:21,419 --> 00:16:23,129
to create a totally new species.

220
00:16:23,588 --> 00:16:24,964
Neither man nor bat.

221
00:16:25,298 --> 00:16:26,883
And once I started taking it,

222
00:16:27,091 --> 00:16:28,134
I couldn't stop.

223
00:16:28,384 --> 00:16:29,886
I desperately wanted to.

224
00:16:30,178 --> 00:16:32,263
But it took over.

225
00:16:32,972 --> 00:16:35,141
Francine and March
tried to protect me,

226
00:16:35,767 --> 00:16:36,976
but it was too late.

227
00:16:37,227 --> 00:16:40,563
The beast knew what chemicals
were needed to bring itself about.

228
00:16:41,022 --> 00:16:42,524
It was out of my control.

229
00:16:43,024 --> 00:16:45,985
And it only needs one more component

230
00:16:46,236 --> 00:16:48,112
to complete the process.

231
00:16:48,821 --> 00:16:50,532
It's in me,

232
00:16:50,865 --> 00:16:52,033
Batman.

233
00:16:53,201 --> 00:16:54,452

(GASPS)

237
00:18:23,541 --> 00:18:25,418
I'm getting something strange.

238
00:18:25,918 --> 00:18:27,253
Oh, not again!

239
00:18:27,587 --> 00:18:29,589
I'm serious.
It's right below us.

240
00:18:31,633 --> 00:18:33,134
(GRUNTS) Whoa!

241
00:18:33,593 --> 00:18:35,345
Gotham Command, we need choppers.

242
00:18:35,678 --> 00:18:37,138
We've sighted the Batman.

243
00:18:55,531 --> 00:18:57,450
- Let's go!
- I can't do it, sir.

244
00:18:57,825 --> 00:18:59,118
What do you mean you can't do it?

245
00:18:59,410 --> 00:19:02,038
I just got word not to let you up
without the Commissioner.

246
00:19:02,455 --> 00:19:04,624
- Who told you that?
- The Commissioner.

247
00:19:05,208 --> 00:19:06,501
GORDON: Get out, Detective!

248
00:19:07,835 --> 00:19:09,504
The Mayor may not let me fire you,

249
00:19:09,837 --> 00:19:11,964
but I am not taking the heat
for your fiascoes.

250
00:19:12,382 --> 00:19:14,926
This is my case, Commissioner!
You heard the Mayor!

251
00:19:15,093 --> 00:19:17,178
Then why don't you go
take it up with him?

252
00:19:17,345 --> 00:19:18,596
I've got a job to do.

253
00:19:18,888 --> 00:19:20,932
If you want to tag along,
fine!

254
00:19:23,601 --> 00:19:24,936
Take her up, Lieutenant.

255
00:19:26,604 --> 00:19:27,939
Hey, wait for me!

256
00:20:15,486 --> 00:20:17,363
- There he is.
- GORDON: There they are.

257
00:20:18,781 --> 00:20:20,032
What is that thing?

258
00:20:20,324 --> 00:20:21,743
That thing is what we're after.

259
00:20:22,410 --> 00:20:23,661
Holy...

260
00:20:58,029 --> 00:20:59,238
Two for dinner, sir?

261
00:20:59,530 --> 00:21:02,408
I got a list of all the items
stolen from the chemical labs.

262
00:21:03,242 --> 00:21:06,037
Who would have thought
they'd be used to create a monster?

263
00:21:07,497 --> 00:21:10,583
Maybe I can undo the fate
Langstrom has brought upon himself.

264
00:21:14,754 --> 00:21:16,756
ALFRED: Does it appear feasible, sir?

265
00:21:17,381 --> 00:21:18,758
I think so.

266
00:21:33,231 --> 00:21:34,357
Is he all right?

267
00:21:37,819 --> 00:21:39,570
- Will he change again?
- No.

268
00:21:40,154 --> 00:21:41,531
The formula's out of his system.

269
00:21:42,114 --> 00:21:43,407
It's over...

270
00:21:43,699 --> 00:21:44,909
for now.
