Dick practically groans in annoyance when he hears the screams. Is there anything else that could have been said that wouldn't have been an invitation to kidnap a baby?

And sure enough, when he's done with the first two guys and turns around, he sees the third man running away with the stroller, waving a gun around, probably because he's stressed and afraid and it makes him feel more confident that he can win this.

Dick is having a good night and he's decided he wouldn't win this.

He throws two batarangs at the man's hand and the second one gets him and makes the gun fall on the ground with a clink. The man doesn't stop to pick it up, instead quickly taking the baby in a bundle of blankets from the stroller and running with him.

Dick nearly throws a line to his feet to make him fall, but chances are he'll fall on the kid, and he can't have that. He throws a line fast and accurate, and makes himself land in front of the criminal a few seconds later.

Dick doesn't even have to tell him to give the kid back and hand himself in, the man knows what he wants already, and the best way not to get caught he can think about it to throw the baby away to catch Dick's attention while he runs away.

Dick swears and throws another line, managing to catch the kid, still all wrapped up, in the air.

The Joker is all, all too pleased at how this is going. Ooooh, it's better than watching one of the American Idol elimination shows. He reaches into his purse and pulls out a remote, holding hit high over his head as he throws off his disguise.

"Smiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiile, batbrat!" he cackles as he presses the remote. The baby hisses and sprays out a cloud of Joker Toxin almost directly into the Robin's face.

"Ohhhh, baby's got some bad gas. Oopsie!"

Ridiculously, the first thing to cross Dick's mind is that the bad wordplays are really bad and that no one should be allowed to say anything like that.

It only sticks a fraction of second, because then, he's throwing the baby on the floor even though it's too late, and takes out a mask from his belt -- too late for that, too, since he took a breath in when the gas was first shot at his face.

He nearly wants to stay to fight against the Joker. Nearly. But he wants to live more, and that means trying to get away before he can't, anymore.

He glares at the Joker and fires a line -- and already, he can't tell he won't be doing that for much longer because he's going to fly himself to his death.

"Ahahahaha, run away little bird!" the Joker cackled, literally falling on the ground and rolling around in laughter. It was all too funny, the hurried escape with the knowledge that he was going to die or go mad and hurt someone...

Oh it was just too much fun. God, he should do this every night.
