Synopsis for "One Way or Another, Part 4 of 6"

Barbara spends the night clearing Seer out of the computer network and upgrading her security. In the morning she is finally able to reach Dick Grayson on the phone and confirm that he is alright and the image Seer showed her was faked. She gives the Batgirls the day off while she comes up with a plan to capture Tutor. While exploring the neighborhood, Stephanie and Cassandra bump into Charles Dante, who claims to recognize them from the art show despite the fact they were in costume the whole time. Cassandra also notes that she cannot read Dante's facial expressions.

That night they track Tutor to his hideout, following a tracking device that Cassandra placed on him the previous night. They are unknowingly stalked by the Saints. Tutor, who is revealed to have severe burn scars on his face, is waiting for them and hits them with his gas, but new filters in their masks protect them. He takes control of Stephanie's mind again, but she is able to break free when Cassandra calls Stephanie her best friend.

The Batgirls capture Tutor and Oracle tells them to take him to Charles Dante's home office, as she believes his background in psychiatry may allow him to help Tutor. After they leave it is revealed that Tutor is working for Dante, who is secretly the new Spellbinder.
