Synopsis for "The Fiend With Nine Eyes"
At a League of Assassins compound it is revealed that Talia al Ghul has enlisted Merlyn to train Damian Wayne in the ways of the bow. Talia and Merlyn discuss the relationship between Jezebel Jet and Bruce Wayne which has received much attention in the tabloids. Talia believes that Bruce belongs to her, so Merlyn offers to kill Jezebel. She agrees and he goes to do so. As Merlyn heads to Gotham, Jezebel and Bruce meet for dinner at a restaurant. During their conversation, Jezebel confronts Bruce about his constant disappearances and overall mysterious behavior. Just as the relationship seems to be coming to an end, a mysterious mystical villain calling himself the Fiend With Nine Eyes, bursts into the room with his henchmen, and takes Jezebel and Bruce hostage. It is revealed that Jezebel is the target because her father has powerful enemies. The villain takes Jezebel away through the kitchen, leaving his henchmen to guard Bruce. Bruce quietly dispatches the henchmen, goes to confront the villain, and brutally takes him down. After the villain is unconscious, Jezebel questions Bruce's actions. He tells her that she should break up with him confirming her earlier accusations are true, Bruce Wayne is a shallow, selfish, reckless mask of a man that never grew up. This causes her to realize that Bruce Wayne is Batman. Later, Merlyn returns to Talia and tells her that when he got there, a villain had already captured Bruce and Jezebel. Damian concludes that someone is out to get his father. Talia agrees and begins to make plans.
