Synopsis for "The Man Behind the Mask!"

Batman tells Robin he will find his mysterious tormentor alone, and strides out of the Batcave. Robin calls up Jack Edison, top stunt-driver and car-designer, and informs him they need a new Batmobile, which Jack hand-designs himself. Robin then tells Alfred he intends to help Batman whether he likes it or not. Batman checks with Shamrock and other street people for clues, but can find none. Commissioner Gordon tells Batman he may subconsciously be overlooking clues, knowing unconsciously the culprit is someone close to him he does not wish to hurt. Robin turns up soon afterward to ask about his mentor. Bruce Wayne, trying to get through a business day, suddenly realizes who his tormentor must be. As Batman, he returns to the original Batcave below Wayne Manor that night, but finds the walls of the cave closing in on him. He also seems to see the shade of Bruce Wayne accusing him of usurping both their existences. Abruptly, a figure clad in the Bat-Man costume of Thomas Wayne appears to help Batman hold back the closing walls, and tells him that the warehouse explosion affected his mind, giving him paranoid schizophrenia. Encouraged, Batman thrusts himself and his friend to safety, and unmasks his ally as Robin. Robin admits that he rigged the closing walls and donned the Bat-Man costume to bring Batman back to his senses. Thanking Robin, Batman goes off to be by himself, viewing the streets of Gotham City from on high.
