The stability of the Royal Flush Gang has begun to crumble, with Ten quitting, Jack getting arrested, and Queen beginning to increasingly doubt King's competence at leadership. King, however, insists that he has a master plan at returning the gang to it's former glory: by kidnapping Wayne-Powers CEO Paxton Powers and demanding a large ransom payment from Bruce Wayne. Unfortunately, Bruce does not budge from this threat and, in an attempt to save himself, Paxton offers the Royal Flush Gang an alternative deal [[spoiler:to help him murder Bruce]].
!!Tropes found in this episode include:
* ActorAllusion: A pretty harsh one for King's voice actor, Creator/GeorgeLazenby.
-->'''King:''' Do you have any idea what it's like living in [[Creator/SeanConnery someone's shadow]]?!

* MayDecemberRomance: [[spoiler:King's affair with the much younger Sable Thorpe.]]

-->'''Bruce:''' Luckily, so did I.
* ReformedButRejected: Despite giving up crime and now having a legitimate life as a restaurant worker, Melanie[=/=]Ten sadly learns from Batman that Terry has decided to put her out of his life.
* TakeThat: Barbara Gordon gets a pretty hilarious one on Paxton (and Blight) after he is arrested for [[spoiler:plotting to murder Bruce]]:
-->'''Paxton:''' They're lying, I tell you! Bruce Wayne's my mentor! He's like a father to me!
-->'''Barbara:''' Except he doesn't [[ILoveNuclearPower glow in the dark]].
-->'''Paxton:''' Hey, I resent that! Where's my lawyer? I'll sue!
* WomanScorned: [[spoiler:Queen, upon discovering that King was having an affair with Sable Thorpe, is livid and attacks both of them in a fit of rage.]]
* VillainousBreakdown: [[spoiler:King has a massive one at the end of the episode, attacking both Queen and Batman as he is sick of her constant comparisons of him and her father.]]
* YourCheatingHeart: [[spoiler:It turns out that King had been having a secret affair with Paxton Power's assistant Sable Thorpe and together, they double-crossed both Paxton and Queen. When Queen find out, [[WomanScorned she does not take it well]].]]
