Synopsis:
Actor Roger Kay appears on television to announce that he has solved a murder case and will identify the killer the following day. Kay then admits to Bruce Wayne that he made the annoucement to flush the killer into the open, but he now fears for his own life. Batman disguises himself as Kay and when the killer strikes he captures Batman instead of Kay.

Batman, still in disguise, learns that the killer is millionaire Victor Iago, who wanted to commit the perfect crime. Batman escapes from Iago's death trap, then brings the killer to justice. Iago is then convinced that Kay is Batman's secret identity, but Batman and Kay appear together, disproving the theory.
