Added DiffLines:

* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Zucco and his brothers truly do care for each other, in fact the reason Zucco killed Dick's parents was for revenge for getting one of his brothers arrested. When interrogated by Batman on Zucco whereabouts, one of his brothers refuses to tell him because he says he doesn't rat out family.

Added DiffLines:

* ActorAllusion: Creator/KevinConroy plays John Grayson, Dick Grayson's biological father after famously playing his surrogate father Bruce Wayne in ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries''. His killer Tony Zucco is played by Creator/MarkHamill who played his archnemesis in that series. Looks like the Joker finally got Batman.

* ForWantOfANail: It involved screws, but Dick was ''about'' to go on the trapeze when he heard the trapeze bolts clattering. If he hadn't heard them, he would have been killed as well.

* AppropriatedAppellation: Although Dick intentionally disliked the nickname his mother gave him, Robin, he chose to make it the name of his alter ego as Batman's after defeating Zucco at the end of the episode, in honor of his parents.
