So, it's year one and Poison Ivy has shown up, naturally we should get a gratuitous shower scene...of Bruce. Also, Alfred rules!
Young Bruce is working on the Poison Ivy case and looking very pretty. He wants to go out as Batman but has to go to a charity dinner with an actress named Bebe Danielle. Witness as he uses his ninja stealth to avoid drinking champagne.
Suddenly, everyone but him startes sprouting little mushrooms, bet they all wish they had poured their champagne it the plant. Chaos ensues.
When he comes to, his date is refusing to give her money to Poison Ivy. Ivy's henchman are about to shoot her, Bruce dives into him and keeps the shot from being fatal, but draws the attention of Ivy in the process.
Bruce has one hour before the poison from the kiss kills him. Though Batman is weakened from the poison, he manages to track Ivy down. She had been looking forward to meeting him (in a strange way), but gets mad after he burns some of her plants.
Sigh, what can I say I have a weakness for the 'Bruce goes to social event, villains show up' plot device.
