Synopsis for "Son of Penguin, Part 3"
Barbara keeps having to deal with criminals and problems stemming from VicForm's apps, and she has realized Ethan appears to be targetting Batgirl.
Nonetheless, Ethan also seems to be really serious about dating Barbara Gordon. Ethan invites her to a masquerade ball and says he has bought her a toothbrush. Barbara knows she has to break it off with him soon. Meanwhile, since Ethan is busy greeting the partygoers, Barbara slips out and heads to VicForm H. Q. to scope the place out.
Batgirl sneaks in the building through a window and is attacked by two men. After taking them down she notices his bowler hats, worn by the Penguin's henchmen. Batgirl thinks Ethan is in league with his father after all, but then the Penguin turns up and denies working with his son.
