Synopsis for "City of Light, Part Five"

Batman is sitting for Rahn when Purge attacks. He steals Rahn's portrait of Batman and sets an explosive, which blows up the Submergists' loft. Batman manages to jump out in time, but he believes Rahn has been killed. Rahn's fellow Submergists all escape, and they give statements to Detectives Montoya and Allen. They identify Purge as their attacker, and Batgirl tells the detectives that Purge and Evan Slate are one in the same.

Angela Styles offers to take the detectives to Slate Tower One and let them in using the passkey Slate gave her. They become lost in the tower as the walls move around.

On her way, Batgirl sees Slate driving in the opposite direction and follows him to the site of Slate Tower Two, where he is keeping Rahn. He and Purge, who appear to be two individuals, intimidate Rahn into ripping his portrait apart with a knife, but he refuses. Batgirl fights Purge while Rahn wrestles with Slate, and when the villains get the upper hand, Slate orders Purge to kill Batgirl.
