Synopsis:

Nightwing catches up with Batman in the rubble of the clifftop home of one of Gotham's mob bosses, while Alfred remembers Dick's arrival at Wayne Manor and his introduction to Batman's world. Batman refuses to talk to Nightwing about his feelings regarding Jason's death, and neither of them is yet aware that Boss Zucco, the killer of Dick's parents, has been granted parole. That night, Batman offers his help to the surviving mob bosses, and Alfred considers killing Zucco.
