Synopsis for "War Games: Act 1, Part 3 of 8: A Sort of Homecoming"
Batman fights the gangs in Chinatown when he's joined by the long absent Nightwing. Batman immediately realizes something is bothering him, but Nightwing keeps the reason a secret. Batman assigns him to interrogate a man at the Thompson Clinic.
Tarantula has followed Nightwing to Gotham and she quickly takes over the Latino Unified Gang.
At the clinic, Leslie tells Nightwing Escobedo's guard is unable to talk, but Onyx is there as well. She tells him about what happened at the meeting.
Jack Drake talks with Tim about what's happening, making sure he doesn't plan to become Robin again.
Oracle notices strange activities at Burnley and reports to Batman, who in turn checks with Nightwing and assigns him to find out what Tarantula is up to. When he arrives, she attacks him, but it's an act to impress her new gang. She tells him she's taken control to keep them out of the fight. Batman decides this is acceptable and tells Oracle and Nightwing to behave while Tarantula aids in Gotham.
