Baaaaaats. Jaaaaaay.
You guys.
The password to Batman's inner sanctum (where he keeps, among other things, Jason Todd's Robin costume as a memorial) is "chilidog."
Chilidog.
Jason Todd's favorite food, which Batman never let him have when Jason was his ward.
Jason Todd, his first adopted son, his second Robin, his greatest failure. Who was murdered on Batman's watch, who Batman never talks about, whose costume is kept in a glass memorial case, the destruction of which is always the 'greatest defilement' of the Batcave, and usually makes everyone stop and stare in horror for a while.
He doesn't talk about him. He can't begin to sort through his feelings about him (this is BATS, after all). When Jason comes back as the Red Hood, it's all rage and fighting and disapproval and disappointment and Batman still doesn't talk about him.
But he goddamn uses his son's favorite food as his password.
