Synopsis:
The Riddler is compelled to leave clues for Batman concerning his upcoming robberies, but the crook finds a way to hide the clues from Batman by making them extremely difficult to see and booby-trapping them. Despite the Riddler's new plan, he is still captured by Batman and sent to jail.

When the Riddler is quickly bailed out of jail, Batman takes his place in the jail cell. The Caped Crusader has correctly deduced that his opponent has hidden another clue in the cell. Batman finds it appears at the Riddler's next heist. Riddler gets away, but Batman is able to follow another clue to a third robbery. This time the Riddler is caught and sent back to prison.
