Synopsis for "Catfight!"
Catwoman and Wildcat engage in a fight. Both combatants were equally matched so Selina cheated by kissing Ted to throw him off then she knees him in the groin. As Ted reels from the pain, Selina tries to talk some sense into him. Selina suspects that she is going to be set up to take the fall for this heist because she also saw the mob enforcers that Ted noticed earlier. Selina knows about Ted's moral compass and is willing to help him in preventing heist so long as he is willing to look the other way when she takes her cut of the profits.
Meanwhile, the fight between Ramirez and Taylor ends when Hernandez totally knocks out Taylor. Jocko is furious by the turn out because he didn't lay off any bets on the fight. Tombstone Taylor was expected to be a lock to win but now every person who placed a bet on Hernandez will want their payout for the long shot and Jocko doesn't have enough money to cover what he has skimmed from the casino. Jocko then gets a call from his older Luciano Volpe. Jocko ensures Luciano that everything is well in hand and that his money is protected.
Luciano didn't feel to reassured by the trembling in Jocko's voice so he calls in his enforcer Red Blade to find out the truth. Red Blade was dealing a few crooks in their RV when he gets the call from Luciano. Luciano agrees to pay Red Blade 10% of ten million and a bonus if he makes everyone who crossed Luciano suffer slowly. Red Blade agrees to Luciano's terms and empties his rapid firing gauntlet on the crooks then he sets the RV on fire.
Clawhammer and his crew shoot acid into the security cameras while Selina's disruptor module deactivates the locks to the cask office. Clawhammer's crew robs the cash office clean and makes off with the profits while Clawhammer shoots nails into the heads of every person in the cash office. Clawhammer and his crew were supposed to use an armored truck to make their escape but the police arrive because of a riot taking place in the arena over the upset of Hernandez winning the championship. Clawhammer tells his crew that Plan B's escape route is on the roof. A security guard shoots at Fi Fi but he returns fire and kills the guard. A spat of blood from the guard lands on Fi Fi's shirt and Fi Fi angrily bashes the guard's face in until it's nothing but mush beneath his fists. Buffalo tells Fi Fi to focus and head up with the rest of them to the roof.
A news chopper lands on a roof on the other side of the Klondike and Clawhammer holds the pilot hostage with his nail gun. Jocko told Clawhammer to head to the Old Hughes Hangar for the meet but none of them escape when Catwoman and Wildcat appear. Catwoman and Wildcat make quick work of Clawhammer and the Dragna twins. The other members of Clawhammer's crew make it onto the chopper, take to the skies then they start shooting at Selina and Ted. Selina uses her bola to tangle up the chopper's tail fin. The chopper starts spinning in mid air and Clawhammer's crew jumps onto the roof while the chopper makes a collision course.
