After completing his college education in psychology, Darby Deems uses his knowledge for crime. He poses as Dr. Dreemo, a dream expert. He analyzes the dreams of various guests and uses the information he learns to rob and cheat them. When Batman catches Dreemo robbing miser Archibald Wormser, the crook manages to escape.

Batman then approaches Dreemo as Bruce Wayne, allowing the psychologist to interpret his dreams in hopes of creating a trap. Dreemo becomes suspicious of Batman's secret identity and manages to capture Robin. Batman comes to his partner's rescue and protects his secret using dummies. Despite his genius, Dreemo is defeated and sent to prison.
