He then leaves for the washroom and has a brief encounter Carmine’s grim-faced  son Alberto. Bruce then meets a woman named Selina Kyle and the two start dancing. Alberto then goes to talk to his father about the “family business”,  but Carmine says that he shouldn’t be worrying about such things, even though Alberto wants to help. A henchman of Carmine’s then points out that D.A. Harvey Dent is snooping around Carmine's garages.  Harvey is writing down the license plates of all the guests at the party so he can find out who Carmine’s associates are. He is then roughed up by Carmine’s minions. After the minions leave, Bruce and Selina make sure he’s ok, but Harvey seems to not like Bruce for some reason. Selina offers to take Bruce somewhere else, but Bruce says it is too late. Harvey then goes to meet Captain Gordon of the GCPD and tells him about what he was doing that night. Gordon reprimands him saying he shouldn’t take needless chances like that  Bruce Wayne changes to his alter-ego Batman and goes to examine a safe at Carmine’s house. He runs into Catwoman (actually Selina Kyle) there and the two start to fight. Carmine’s minions show up and try to kill them, but Batman throws a smoke bomb and the two escape. Carmine rages about this break-in and is antagonized by his rival Salvatore “the Boss” Maroni. Carmine then places a one-million dollar bounty on Batman and Catwoman. Batman is chasing after Catwoman, but she escapes, he then sees the bat-signal and leaves  Batman meets Harvey Dent and Captain Gordon. The three talk about how Carmine puts himself above the law and why that needs to stop. The three make a pact to bring down Carmine but not break any rules in doing so. Batman then disappears leaving Harvey and Gordon with an important ledger of Carmine’s.

He then goes to the Richard Daniels (the bank chief) as Batman and says “The Falcone money, keep it out of the bank.” A newspaper pops up on the screen which says “Bank Chief Daniel Resigns, Bruce Wayne to Head."

August

September
Johnny is shown killing Daniels. Meanwhile, the screen becomes grey as someone at a workbench grabs a pistol with a taped up handle, puts it in a clamp, and files off the serial number, the camera then focuses on a baby bottle nipple on the desk.
