Synopsis for "Legacy, Part Two: The Best of Enemies"
Catwoman's cell is filling with water. She uses a tungsten wire hidden in her pants to pick the lock of the cell's door. She swims through the place and finds Brother Umberto in a cell and she frees him. Hellhound is in another cell and asks for help but Catwoman refuses and leaves him to die. Catwoman and Umberto come across a door but it is closed. Catwoman decides to free Hellhound in order to open the door with the strength of the three of them. The door opens and they climb out of the ruins. When they reach the top Hellhound attacks Catwoman. She dodges his attack and then she beats him down until he is knocked out. Catwoman ties Hellhound to a post and she walks away along with Umberto.
On his private jet, Batman arranges the plans to find out what Ra's al Ghul next movement will be. Nightwing tells them what he heard back in the ruins. Ra's is planning to set the new strain of the Ebola Gulf-A into the "new world". Batman recruits Oracle's help to find where Ra's could be. With the information she is provided, Oracle finds out that Ra's possible targets are Paris, Edimburgh and Gotham City. Batman tells Nightwing and Robin to go to Paris while he heads to Edimburgh. He tells them that if they don't find anything there, they will meet in Gotham, where they might find their last stand.
Meanwhile, Collector is waiting at his boat for Catwoman and Hellhound to return with his "prize". At that moment, the police of Sudan arrive at his boat and place him under arrest for molestation of one of there female citizens. He doesn't know what they are talking about and the police point to a lady entirely covered with a veil and tell him that it was her who claimed the crime. The Collector is taken away and the lady walks away from the scene as well. The lady walks towards Umberto and it's revealed that it is Selina all the time behind the veil. She planned the whole set up to put Collector in jail at least until they find out that he actually committed no crime.
