Robin arrives at the transmitter where he finds Butch and his accomplice Adam already tied up, and meeting the speedster Kid Flash, who was actually Wally and is also on Robin's investigation in which he interrogated Butch that reveals they sold the explosives to foreigners. Robin then pieces together that Butch and Adam came to the transmitter to see the explosion to be at a nearby airfield, which is secretly being used as a refueling site for Air Force One that is en route for Washington and is being planned to land with the President on board.
