Synopsis for "Hardcore Nights, Part 2 of 2"

A man bursts into Sophia’s apartment as she and “James” get intimate. Dick Grayson fights him, causing Sophia to go running straight to the waiting police. Sophia and Sal are partners: she lures men to her apartment, where Sal takes photographs to blackmail them with. But Sophia denies killing anybody. When questioned, she suggests her ex-boyfriend Roland Davies might be behind it.

On Batman’s suggestion, Gordon releases Sophia. Roland confronts her in her apartment building and gets into a fight with her doorman, Anthony. His alibis for the murders check out, however. Batman suggests another sting operation where Gordon is the man who goes home with Sophia. When Gordon leaves her building, he finds Roland’s dead body in an alleyway, and he is attacked by Anthony, whom Batman overpowers.

Anthony is convicted for his crimes and given a life sentence. Gordon escorts Sophia to the bus depot, and she asks him to thank Batman for her.

Synopsis for "Crunch"

Because his appearance might be prejudicial, Two-Face asks for a bench trial, and his old friend Judge van Dyke grants his request as well as issuing a gag order for the duration of the trial. Kate Spencer asks Dylan Battles to testify, but since he never heard Two-Face say anything about the former district attorney’s death, he wonders how thin Kate’s case against Two-Face is.

Ramsey has run away from his father’s home in Los Angeles and headed to Gotham with his robot dog Thor, thinking to help his mother against Two-Face.

Manhunter beats up various criminals for information, but fails. Huntress offers to help. Kate’s luck in the courtroom is no better when Two-Face creates doubt in the weapon expert’s testimony and provokes Commissioner Gordon into a display of temper.
