Added DiffLines:

** Fighting like this has a degree of FridgeLogic behind it - it's a way to keep his fighting style distinct from Batman's. Bruce doesn't know who's been doing the kidnappings so has to take precautions in case it's someone he's dealt with in the past.

General clarification on works content; there is one possibly homeless women with a shopping trolley at the start of the episode, and a few homeless women in Bruce's dream scene. Either BS&P didn't notice or didn't actually mind.


* MenAreTheExpendableGender: Gotham City's homeless population is made up ''entirely'' of men, with not one woman or child in sight. As it turns out, this was enforced by [[Trivia/BatmanTheAnimatedSeriesE8TheForgotten BS&P executives]], who forbade the writers from showing anyone other than men as homeless.

The scene in question has Bruce figuring out something that's already been concerning him after hearing the right words, not some kind of post-hypnotic suggestion.

* CartoonishSupervillainy: Boss Biggis and his lackeys are one-note stock villains without any personality or depth to them. They're just there to give a face to those who victimize the homelessness that Batman can punch.

Corrupt Hick has been cut per this TRS tread:[1] Appropriate examples are moved to Small Town Tyrant


* CorruptHick: Boss Biggis, a FatSweatySouthernerInAWhiteSuit who runs a slaving gold mine in a desert somewhere.



* SoundtrackDissonance: Gotham City is a steel-clad, faux-1940s metropolis, so you'd expect to hear overly dramatic classical music (which we do) or else jazz and/or showtunes (which we sometimes do). But in this episode the action shifts to some sort of arid, rocky landscape out west (could be South Dakota, or maybe Wyoming) so that Batman can capture some [[CorruptHick Corrupt Hicks]] who have kidnapped and enslaved homeless people in order to mine gold. The hicks' theme is as "frontier" as all-get-out, with rapidly-played harmonicas and a booming basso guitar straight out of a Western movie.
