Synopsis:
The Joker and his men escape Gotham City after stealing a fortune in jewels. Their plane crashes in the Ozarks. Joker goes down with the plane, while his men parachute to safety. The crash gives the Joker amnesia. He finds the jewels and turns them over to police, claiming to be Ed Smith.

Batman and Robin trail Joker to the town of Farr Corners. They learn about his amnesia and play along. Joker's henchmen try to jump Batman, but the Joker helps the Caped Crusaders, proving to Batman that he is honest.

Joker eventually remembers where the rest of his loot is hidden. He intends to turn it over to the police, but his henchmen jump him. Batman and Robin save him, but the blow to the head restores the Joker's memory. Batman apprehends the Joker and his henchmen and recovers the stolen loot.
