Dick's first dealing with James Gordon and the Gotham City Police ends in disaster as the Circus of Strange attacks police headquarters. Leaving Batman to deal with Phosphorus Rex and Siam, Robin follows Big Top towards the holding cells where he stops her from freeing Mr. Toad.
But in the chaos surrounding the attack, someone murders Mr. Toad. Dick and Damian's performance leaves the police unsure about Batman and Robin, and Damian is ready to abandon Dick and make his own way forward. But some wisdom from Alfred gives Dick a new perspective on being Batman... one that, perhaps, he can live with.
