Two men armed with guns stand lookout while a third carrying a box emerges from a door on the top story of a building. He trips and spills all the jewels out of the box. While he and one of his partners try to clean up the mess, a shadow of a bat flies over them. Spooked, they draw their guns. While they watch the skies, the third thief is caught by surprise and knocked out with one punch by a mysterious figure resembling a bat. The remaining two thieves start firing on him but he nimbly dodges each bullet. Finally, he takes the offensive and tackles them to the ground. One of the criminals grabs his gun again but is disarmed by a batarang. He's not willing to give up and punches Batman. The two fight for a brief while with Batman emerging victorious. Just as Batman finishes his adversary, Commissioner James Gordon and the rest of the police arrive on the scene. They watch as Batman leaps from the building and swings away into the night.
