Synopsis for "The Girl Who Stole Batman's Heart"
Fumes from a sorcerer's flagon appear to make Batman fall in love with a beautiful girl, reducing his effectiveness in crime-fighting. The people of Gotham are concerned at the fact that Batman spends time with his new love while Robin fights crime alongside the Batman Robot. Batwoman tries to reason with Batman, who is blinded by love and won't listen.
Some criminals decide to take advantage of the current situation and they blackmail Batman's girlfriend into giving them a trophy from the Batcave that contains the secret location of $2 million in jewels and cash. When the woman delivers the object to them, they go to the place of the treasure. However, Batman and Robin have been following them closely and they manage to capture the crooks using the Batman Robot. It is later revealed that Batman's romance was a hoax to lure the crooks into a trap and that the girl is in fact a Sergeant from the Police Department. Afterwards, Batwoman is happy to learn that Batman had no romantic interest in other women and finally it is revealed that the sorcerer from the beginning was none other than Alfred, Bruce's trusted butler.
