Synopsis for "The Threshold"
After another night of roughing up thugs, Dick Grayson has an important appointment at the Bludhaven Police Department. Having successfully completed his trial period under the guidance of Amy Rohrbach, Dick is officially welcomed onto the Bludhaven police force. Amy not only informs Dick, that she will be his regular partner, but she also invites him to dinner at her house.
Meanwhile, Tad Ryerstad is picking a fight at the Lockhaven Penitentiary, but is held back by Dudley Soames because having Ryerstad locked away in a solo cell does not fit well with his plan.
In the evening, Dick chats with Barbara Gordon and tells her about the dinner invitation. Dick is unsure about Amy's intentions, but Barbara reminds him that she already is his "partner". To Dick's surprise, Amy is happily married, has two kids and just genuinely wants to get to know him. Dick enjoys the barbecue, but later Barbara laughs at him because he thought Amy wanted to come on to him.
The next day, Dick immediately gets the feeling that Amy is testing him if he would accept a bribe. Thinking about blowing up a larger group of corrupt cops, Dick intimates he possibly would. Later, Amy introduces him to some friends at Saint Dennis' church. But this is not the group of corrupt cops Dick was expecting, but a tiny core of honest officers working together to bring Chief Redhorn and his followers down ...
