7cb1d79195 Penguin discovers a sonic device that allows him to turn Man-Bat into his personal slave. Meanwhile, Alfred must deal with a raccoon that has found its way into the Bat-Cave and is wreaking havoc on the electrical equipment.
How's that for alliteration? Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure more thought went into the title of this review than this whole episode. The term "paper-thin" gives this episode too much credit, I'll say there was potential here, but there was a serious misfire somewhere down the line. First, Langstorm turned into Man-Bat again because of a fancy dog whistle, not buying it. I'm pretty sure whatever was in his system that turned him into Man-Bat would've been flushed out by now. It just feels like a lame excuse to have Langstrom in an episode again. Langstrom's awesome enough as it is, he doesn't need to be shoehorned into episodes. Second, was the main point of comedy in this episode Alfred trying to catch a raccoon? Seriously? Who wrote that? This show is way above that type of humor. Had the episode been about Langstrom maybe trying to turn all of Gotham into bat creatures, that would've been way better than this waste of time. A few other changes like removing Penguin completely, and having more action would've made this episode OK at least, but as of now it's the worst episode of this show so far.
