Synopsis for "No One Is Innocent"
After Azrael (Jean-Paul Valley) knocks out the guard at Harcourt's mansion, the rest of the security team attempt to take him down. However, aided by his flamethrower gauntlets, Azrael slays all of them including some hounds. Then he breaks into an illuminated greenhouse, only to find Mr. Harcourt murdered by Carleton LeHah disguised as Batman. LeHah tries to escape in a car. Azrael jumps on top of it but is knocked down by a branch, and the killer makes an easy escape.
While Alfred Pennyworth tends Azrael's head injuries, the two of them, along with Nomoz, decide to travel to LeHah's possible location: an oil refinery in Texas.
Meanwhile, LeHah is holding Bruce Wayne captive in the Texas refinery. To appease his demon lord Biis, LeHah tortures Bruce with hot steel heated by a blowtorch. But Bruce talks to him, confusing the man and buying some time.
Alfred, Nomoz, and Azrael are outside, trying to find a way in, but the security is impenetrable. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning strikes a nearby electrical tower, causing a power failure that grants the trio an easy way into the building. Just before LeHah fires a bullet at Bruce, Azrael throws a flaming knife at him, causing LeHah to fire repeatedly at some pipes at the roof. The pipes started to leak oil, which soon ignites and burns the whole refinery. Azrael saves Bruce by using the fireproof cape of Batman's costume and carrying him out of the explosion. LeHah is left inside and apparently burns to death.
Nomoz reproaches Azrael for saving Bruce, saying that he has disgraced the name of the Avenging Angel. Jean-Paul answers that he is no angel, implying that he has gained control over the system.
