Episode # 85 – Holiday Knights

And now to start off the new saga of the fourth season of Batman, here's three Christmas stories that takes place for some reason after episode two and eight as well. Don't know why…Yeah, just enjoy the rest here to make sense on the rest later. OK? Cool! Holiday specials!

December 22

Harley Quinn bemoans her fate to her friend, Poison Ivy, as they stay holed up in a scuzzy hotel.

"I'm depressed, Red." said the sad Harley. "Here it is, holiday time, and we're hiding out in this dingy rat-trap. No presents, no fun, no nothing. Can't we at least get a Christmas Tree?"

Ivy was a bit angry to have a tree for the holidays to let it slowly die.

"What?! And support the mad campaign of botanical genocide that grips this country every December?"

With a raised eyebrow of devious foreboding, Ivy assures her that she has a plan that will make it 'the happiest holiday ever'. Later, at the Vreeland estate, we catch up with Bruce having a pleasant conversation with heartthrob Veronica about forthcoming vacation plans. While Megan was just hanging around to wait for her boyfriend 'only to act like Bruce's bodyguard'.

"(Every year it's the same thing…)" she said to look around the place. "(Veronica's party on Christmas, girls trying to have his way with my man as Bruce Wayne, me standing alone without him to keep our relationship a big secret to know that the world knows me and Batman are in love, and other guys are fluttering away with me…and for what? I'm still feel left out is so boring!)"

One guy comes up to Megan holding a mistletoe above Megan's head.

"Hiya, hot stuff. Wanna kiss?"

Megan punches the guy in the face for the thing to fall in his mouth for her to go for the walk around the mansion.

"No thank you!" she said while walking away.

Much to 'Brucey's' chagrin, his quiet moment is interrupted by a gaggle of suitors all intent on snagging a moment with Gotham's most eligible bachelor under the mistletoe. Veronica loves having fun with her friends, huh?

"Cheers."

Backing away to make an escape, he finds Megan who was alone to as they have some moment time alone together while they still could.

"Hi." He comes up from behind and hugs Megan.

She was happy to see him.

"Hi yourself, Bruce." she hugs him back. "Having some made up girl troubles again?"

"Not when I got you…Maybe we could…?" Bruce shows Megan the mistletoe.

"I see where you're going with this."

Before the two could do it quietly, Bruce then finds himself in the arms of a shadowy female figure who – seizing him by his necktie – plants a big one right on his kisser. The girls then meet up with Bruce again after that for Megan lost the person.

"Okay…?" Bruce was lost.

"Hmm…I know. What was that all about?" Megan asks him. "(Not much of a kisser to do it on the cheek bone.)"

Finding himself completely discombobulated as to what exactly just transpired, Bruce makes his way outside with the intent to head home. For Megan to see him get back home to safety. Just then, someone offers Bruce a ride home.

"May we drive you back. Mr. Wayne?" said the mysterious voice.

"No thanks." He answers back. "I have my own car."

One woman talks for the other one sounded familiar to both Megan and Bruce.

"Oh, but we insist!"

On his way to his car, however, he's intercepted by Poison Ivy and Harley Quinn, with a look on his face like he cannot resist their every command no matter how hard he tries. Megan had trouble pulling Bruce away from the car to see her two enemies.

"Bruce? What's wrong? Bruce?" she sees Ivy and Harley. "You two!"

"Season's greetings, Brucey." said Ivy. "Your two favorite party girls are out for some Christmas fun."

They pull Bruce to go into the car to drive off for Megan tries to save him.

"Hey! Give him back-!"

But she gets whack to fall into the snow and takes off for Harley to use her boxing glove to punch her away from her so call friend 'so they think'.

"Sorry, Megs, but no pests allowed!" she said. "Bye-Bye."

Now Megan uses her watch to get her car to try saving Bruce's life, with some gear to bring along to get her boyfriend out of the Batman outfit.

"(Hold on, Bruce, I'll save you to get Batman to come out and play. And with me after…Still, this one Christmas that I want to happen this year. And that's stopping villains.)" she follows the car.

While in the car, Harley kindly reveals exactly what happened: Poison Ivy used a special lipstick laced with a chemical to infect Bruce, via the kiss. They also boldly pronounce that they intend to have a night on the town at Mr. Wayne's expense. The girls shop endlessly buying clothes and jewels, all the while Bruce begrudgingly (yet uncontrollably) puts it all on his credit cards. Finally, Bruce begins building up a will as the chemical's potency begins to wane. Vocalizing his discontent, the girls decide it's time for another dose; backing away from Harley's approach, however, Bruce falls down a conveniently placed 'out of order' open elevator shaft.

"Oh my God, oh my God, oh my God!" Harley panics to calming down after that. "We-we killed him...Oh, well."

"We were going to do it anyway." said Ivy.

The two leave the area after that to continue with their holiday shopping.

"We got his credit cards; what's to worry?"

Believing the slip to be his last, Harley and Ivy leave Bruce for dead, yet as they turn their backs and walk away, a portentous hand reaches out of the abyss and grips the edge of the floor. Well, Megan uses her ribbon to save him in time.

"I got you, Bruce…!" she pulls him up. "Here, you might want to get dress into this." Megan hands Bruce his Batman suit.

"Thank you, Megan."

As the duo burn rubber away from Bergduffs Department Store, the silhouette of the Batman and Megan both can be seen swooping after them.

"So, where to now?" Ivy asks Harley.

"Anyplace is fine by me as long as it's away from those two." Harley points out the window.

For Ivy looks startled and looks out as well, as they screamed to see both Batman and Megan to swoop after the limo. When Harley spots him through the back window, Ivy wastes no time in making an escape: she grabs the wheel of the car and ram raids the Wacko Toys shop. Probing through the pitch black with his flashlight and Megan uses her mirror patch, both Megan and Batman soon needn't wonder where they've gone to as a huge toy soldier comes crashing down nearly upon him to saving his girlfriend's life.

"What's that sound…?"

"Megan, get back!" Batman shoves Megan out of the away.

Big crash on the poor guy for his girlfriend tries to get him out.

"Batman!" she panics. "Have Ivy and Harley completely lose their minds this year?!"

Saving him, the two looked up for they can see the two girls taunting them.

"Megan, how goes it with your man this year? Crazy, isn't it?" said Ivy. "I'll bet you've been a good little Batboy this year, Batman. Unfortunately, Harley and I are still on the naughty list."

"Come on up and get your presents." Harley said.

Not one to decline a challenge, Batman eagerly ascends the tower for Megan to follow him, but only to find a boxing glove by Poison Ivy and a wooden sledge hammer from Harley Quinn.

"Duck, Batman!" Megan tries warning him.

"Merry Christmas, darling!" Ivy punches Batman with a big boxing glove.

"And Happy New Year, chum!"

Harley Quinn uses her sledge hammer on Megan too. For the two plummeting to the bottom, the girls cannot resist a gloat as they make – what they believe will be – their exit. But the quick minded Batman and Megan too had other plans…Megan uses her laser gun from her watch on the Christmas tree to aim and fire.

"Batman, give me a hand here!" she fires away. "(I hope this works…!) Hey, you girls, timber!"

And Batman uses his grappling hook to snag the base of a massive Christmas tree, which he then yanks hard, causing it to topple over directly on the would-be escapees. And soon, the lovers caught them both in the end.

"Merry Christmas, Megan." Batman said to her while being held in his arms.

"Best gift ever."

Batman still has the mistletoe above their heads…

"Let's make it even better…"

"Oh, Batman." She kisses him.

Best cute moment ever! Looks like Harley Quinn got her Christmas tree for Poison Ivy to care less about it, since they were stuck underneath.

"Well, here's your stupid tree." said Ivy. "You happy?!"

Seems like she was…

"Yeah."

Some night that was, huh?

December 24

In Mayfields Department Store, Barbara is just purchasing a new tie for her father when suddenly, an ear-piercing of cuts through the air. For her and Megan to bump into each other 'to know who was who for her to know she was Batgirl' they've been friends ever since.

"Megan?" Barbara was surprised to see Megan.

"Barbara?" same thing with her. "Hey, what's up?"

"Nothing. Just getting something for my Dad. And you?"

Megan shows Barbara some bags of things she got for her and other people like Bruce too.

"Oh, you know…same as last year to some holiday shopping here and there. Guess Gordon going to like a new tie. Looks nice."

The two laughed for Barbara pays for the tie up front for Megan to wait for her. The shop attendant comments on how they've been crying all day, at which point we see why: Harvey Bullock is playing Santa. With his partner, Montoya, he's on a stakeout.

"I don't believe it." Barbara knows who they were. "Are you seeing this, Megan?"

She laughs to already know who Santa Claus was…

"Wow, Bullock, nice Santa suit." Megan said while laughing. "And it's nice for Montoya to stay by his side. Cute couple, huh?"

"You're telling me."

Some stake out this turn out to be.

"Y'know, you could be a little more jolly, Saint Nick." said Montoya.

"Gimmie a break, Montoya." Bullock said to his partner. "This is the lamest stakeout I've ever been on. We better get some lead on this invisible shoplifter soon or- oop!"

For some of the kids, Bullock was being friendly for some to make jokes for Montoya to correct him a lot. A boy leaps up onto 'Santa's' lap.

"You're not the real Santy Claus."

For some kids, not so much to being mean a little.

"Sure I am. Wanna see my gun?" Montoya slaps Bullock. "Ow!"

Bullock, showing rare sensitivity, comforts a young girl whose father he put in prison, and winds up giving her cash to soothe her Christmastime woes. Okay, now that was nice for Megan to find that part to be kind of cute there. As Megan and Barbara continued walking through the store, happens to spot a child shoplifting, but when she tries to apprehend him, his clothes and hand seem to dissolve into nothing.

"Wait a minute…" Barbara tries stopping the child. "Hold it right there, young-!" but the arm turns into some type of clay when she touched him. "Man…?"

Megan sees a few more to stop to grab a hand to be covered in goop as well.

"Huh? Ew! Okay, now I'm getting a dejavoo type of feeling here."

Then, Montoya gets a call through her earpiece that detectives are in pursuit of four child bandits in the store.

"Wake up, Bullock! We're on!"

With Montoya moving out, Bullock does the same. As the them, Megan with her gun out, a few other clerks, and such surround the four bad children who were stealing, they then meld together into...Clayface. Yep, for another episode happens after episode two later on. So, he is alive, huh? Knew it. But still, this was bad here.

"Ho! Ho! Ho!" he said. "Megan, your hot Santa's back, baby."

"Ah!" Megan freaks out. "Not you again!"

"It's Clayface!" Montoya panicked to ask Megan something. "You're Clayface's what now?"

They move away from Clayface's powerful punches in time to stretch out far.

"I'm not his baby and he's not Santa!"

Megan didn't want to talk about getting hit by male villains right now, for Bullock tries to protect her.

"Don't you dare touch my Megan, you creep!" he had his gun out. "After this…I'm going out with Megan."

"Oh, no you're not!" Megan tells Bullock that's not going to happen.

Clayface begins tearing up the place and no one can stop him to have his advantage on Megan, that is, until Barbara gets changed into her Batgirl outfit and delivers a blow to the head the sends him crashing out the window and into the skating rink below for Megan to join with her partner.

"By the way, you and Megan make a really bad couple." She said. "Cool entrance there, huh?"

"You said it."

Montoya and Bullock arrive on the scene and with a little guidance from Batgirl, succeed in halting the giant shape shifter by way of electrocution. By working as a team that is…Since Clayface was in cold water, there was another weakness to stop him. But not with gun fire.

"Don't waste your ammo on him, shoot the Santa!" said Batgirl.

Megan then sees where the idea was going…As Bullock looks at Montoya to think she was talking about him.

"You wouldn't."

"Not you, dope!" she points at Santa statue. "That Santa!"

They do that, the electrical wires to fall with sparks going off, Megan uses her watch to taser him to slow the villain down for a few seconds, and gives Clayface one heck of a shock to go down at last. Batgirl cheers with joy.

"Alright!"

"Direct hit!" Megan cheers with joy to stomp on Clayface's face. "You're such a pervert!"

As Batgirl and Megan did a fine job, Montoya makes Bullock recover the evidences with Clayface's body with his bare hands before they could arrest him for good. Gross!

"Well, so much for Frosty the lawn cigar!" said Bullock.

They were almost done with the job for the night...

"Get to it, Santa."

"Ho, ho, ho, whatever." said Bullock. "At least we saved Megan and I guess Batgirl."

For Montoya to be with Bullock was the best Christmas night to happen and stopped Clayface from stealing lots of things, for Megan knows that they make such a good couple.

December 31

In Commissioner Gordon's office, Batman, Megan, and 'the new' Robin have just reviewed a taped broadcast by the Joker, who reveals some good news and bad news: the good news is that for the next year, he will not kill anyone; the bad news is that he intends to make up for the loss in activity that very night.

"Hi-ho, couch potatoes. I'm interrupting the Toilet Bowl to bring you my very special New Year's resolution: ahem, starting tonight at midnight, I – your loving uncle Joker – do solemnly vow not to kill anyone for a whole year...which means I'm going to have to work extra fast to bump off a few more of you today!" he laughs insane-like.

Well, that wasn't good, you know?

"Hysterical." said Robin.

"Not when it comes to a mad clown like Joker here, Robin." Megan added. "Unless of course there are others who are afraid of clowns…Anyways, I better pinpoint the location." Megan hacks away with her computer book.

As Gordon tells Batman the only murder that day was a GothCorp scientist who specialized in sonics.

"Joker murder Dr. Erickson around noon time today." said Gordon.

From that doctor having the laughing grin for Joker use a laugh gas on the guy. Then Robin found something from the doctor's paper work.

"Says here he was working on something."

This Dr. Erikson had been working on a sonic based weapon powerful enough to kill anyone in 'earshot'. As Gordon also shows to Joker and his men to wearing the earmuffs to show from the doctor's room.

"Unless these earmuffs protect the ears to those who where it will be fine." Megan studies it. "Yep, it's a strong one to destroy the brain in seconds to turn to Jell-O."

"Then Joker's going to use the bomb tonight." said Batman. "He promises the countdown of victims. And there's no countdown to happen than at one place, the Gotham Square."

Using some rudimentary deductive skills, Batman concludes that the New Year's Day countdown at Gotham Square is assuredly the place where the Joker will set off the bomb. For Megan to pinpoint the location, the three headed out to the area right away.

"Got it! It's a few minutes if we run in time. Let's go, boys! And Gordon, leave this to us!"

Indeed, the Joker is setting up, and Batman with Megan and Robin were close at hand, but – always with a trick up his sleeve – the Joker has prepared a mass of plastic joker masks to help him blend in with the crowd.

"You sure he'll be here?" Robin asked.

"With murder on this scale, Joker will be close by to enjoy his handy work. Even in this crowd he'll stick out like a sore thumb."

Megan was lock, loaded, and ready to go.

"Let just hope we save the people in time too." She said.

Batman, Megan, and Robin now sees this to be a bit...more harder than it already looks. With all the Joker's masks on, it was going to be hard to do.

"You two were saying?" said Robin.

Batman is not amused. Using his 'Batnoculars', he easily spies the real Joker (with a huge clown wearing ear muffs on either side of him) playing the piano on stage. So just before swooping in, Batman makes his presence known with a well-timed Batarang to the head, removing the Joker's ear muffs. Then, instead of going after the Joker directly, Batman, Megan, and Robin take out the muscle on either side of him. This seemingly simple task, however, proves to be too much for the caped crusaders and they find themselves in the clutches of the Clown Prince of Crime. He even hits Batman from behind using a bucket of ice campaign, what a dirty trick! Robin and Megan see him in danger now.

"Batman!"

"Oh, no!"

With one thug of Mo, Lar, and Cur grabbed Robin, the other two grabs Megan by the arms for the Joker win this one.

"Poor Bats." said the mad clown himself. "That campaign went right through your head. Now you'll miss the big count down."

As the bell is rising to ring in the New Year, the Joker is having himself one final gloat by standing next to Batman with a bottle of champagne for Megan to use her yoyo's to give it to him.

"Do it, Batman!" she shouted.

The ever-alert Dark Knight snatches the bottle and sprays it all over the controls, shorting the wires only for Joker to shoot him from the shoulder to miss, and eventually exploding the bell's pulley, resulting in a falling, massively heavy bell. As luck would have it, the giant object lands right on the Joker (who comically follows it up with a small 'ouch'). And with that, a new year has started and everyone was saved. Happy New Year! Robin stops the other thug for Megan beat down the other two in the very end.

"We did it!" Robin said with joy.

"Ouch…!" Joker said in pain.

With Megan treating Batman's injuries from the gunshot wound, was easily removing the bullet wasn't too hard, and for her to arrest Joker and three thugs for good. Also getting the device to the police in time.

"Now that was a close one." she hugs Batman on his better arm. "Batman, are you okay?"

He pulls Megan in his arm to kiss her head.

"I'm okay, Megan, thank you."

January 1, 1:55 AM

A few hours after midnight, Gordon enters a small tavern and has a seat, while the barkeep ushers out the remnants of the punters. He speculates that 'he' might not show due to the hectic day 'he's' had, but the Commissioner is sure he will show so not to break tradition. Naturally, it's Batman who they're talking about and who makes an entrance from the kitchen. He sits; they chat for about ten seconds; he slips away like a shadow, leaving money for the bill behind. Gordon, surprised, swears that one day he'll beat him to the check, then heads home with a swinging Bat close behind him. He sees Megan to go meet with her boyfriend to spend some more time at their hideout.

"What a night."

"Happy New Year, Megan." He said to her. "Thanks again on another fine job tonight."

"You too, Gordon! Happy New Year!" she leaves to grab hold of Batman. "Let's go, handsome!"

For Gordon to leave, Batman swings throughout Gotham City with Megan by his side to hang out a bit longer together.

"I can do this every year with you." He said with a smile.

And for that, those were the three-short tales of the holidays, Christmas, and New Year to come and save the day once again. You know? Of course, what a night of the three nights they were!
