Synopsis:

Nightwing is not exactly pleased that Batman has taken on a new Robin, but realises that it is about time he patched things up with Batman at least. He hears the story of how Jason Todd came to be Robin and accepts the boy, helping him crack a drug ring; as he does so, he makes sure Robin has someone to talk to if his relationship with Batman should suffer.
