Batman and Robin helped out a domestic abuse victim,
but the perpetrator had diplomatic immunity thanks to his father. They planned
on busting him for drugs so he'd be deported. Batman had to warn Robin from
being over-anxious. The bust went down, but he planned on seeing his girlfriend
again before leaving the country. When Robin arrived at her apartment, she'd
hung herself. Robin went for the killer (in his eyes); Batman arrived in time to
see him fall to his death from his balcony. When questioned, Robin replied, "I
guess I spooked him. He slipped."
