Synopsis for Batman: "Champions Don't Brag!"

A gang of criminals put their efforts into discovering the secret identity of Robin and after witnessing some school boys performing in sports, they get to the wrong conclusion that the boy who won all the competitions must be Robin and therefore his father is Batman. What the criminals didn't know is that Dick Grayson allowed the other boy to succeed, to avoid suspicion.

The thugs kidnap the wrong boy and the real Batman and Robin are summoned by Commissioner Gordon to help rescue the boy. The Dynamic Duo locate the criminal's hideout and they rescue the kid, who is impressed by Robin's performance and after his experience, he becomes a more humble person.
