Synopsis
Batwoman's Junior Partner
Batman and Robin are challenged to a duel of wits by the Clockmaster, a new criminal who leaves clues to his crimes by means of a clock which shows a 3-D display of a new target for a heist every 24 hours. During the first two crimes, Batman and Robin manage to locate the crooks at the crime scene, but they have no information about their boss' whereabouts. The final clue is a small oven with a flower inside. Robin believes that the Clockmaster would strike at the Gotham Baking Company and he goes to the place to stop the crime. Batman on the other hand, heads over to the Gotham Jem's Exhibit, where the Clockmaster actually is. Batman deduced that the clue meant something different as "hot rocks", and he assumed that the Clockmaster was after the jewels all along. In the end the criminal is captured and his clue machine becomes part of the trophy room in the Batcave.
