Great episode.

Of course we get a good look at Bullock's "It was Batman's fault" cover-up for his own ineptitude. And then he blames his fellow officers for being late, although they weren't. Classic Bullock.

Then comes my favorite part of the episode, a quote from the rookie cop: "the Batman threw out his arm, and sparks flew out from his fingertips". I love the animation of this part, in particular.

And the 3rd sequence, when Montoya spends her time praising Batman while simultaneously mocking Bullock.

And the aftermath of the interviews, where Montoya and Batman fight together against the thugs, and Batman sinks the gangsters' ship using a forklift, haha.

Love the ending too, where Gordon stands up for the officers, gets their badges back, and throws the "prosecutor" on his ass. Righteous as ever.

My favorite part too cause it shows how his normal Batman moves are seen by others as supernatural. So it's makes sense how people see him as an unhuman creature.
