Synopsis:
Catwoman escapes from prison, then threatens three wealthy men. When the men won't pay her, Catwoman causes black cats to cross their path. She then robs the men. Batman and Robin try to stop her, but Robin is captured. He is taken to Catwoman's hide-out where he uses his belt-radio to summon Batman. Batman then rescues his partner. Catwoman flees and is presumed dead after her car jumps off a bridge.
