Synopsis for "The Immigrant: Rosemary's Baby"

Batman saves a Latin girl from a gang of punks at the Gotham Docks. Upon saving her, he learns that she's an illegal immigrant that arrived to Gotham by sea to recover her son. She tells Batman that she had sold her son for 50 dollars to some American people and later learned that her son was going to be taken to Gotham City. Batman informs Commissioner Gordon about the case and helps him figure out how a criminal has cheated the lie detector three times.

In order to help the girl, Batman infiltrates a fertility lab and checks the computer records and files, but finds nothing. He hides a bug on a telephone to listen and learn any suspicious activity. Batman hears a man offering the possibility to adopt a child without any formal transaction. Batman goes to the appointed place and shakes him to reveal information on the kids he was trafficking. Batman is told to follow a van that starts to run away at the sight of him. The driver and co-driver both jump off the van, leaving it to run free with the truck loaded with kids. Batman is able to stop the van before it hurts anyone and saves the babies inside. All the activities on the child smuggling are stopped and the children returned to their parents.
