Synopsis:

As Calculator's agents continue to torture Savant, Barbara Gordon decides that it's time she let her father, former police commissioner James Gordon, into the secret of her life as Oracle. He is surprised by this, but reveals that he was aware of her career as Batgirl. Creote discovers that Savant has been kidnapped, so Oracle sends the Birds into action, with her father observing as they carry out the rescue mission. There are, of course, complications. Deathstroke is on the scene and is to kill the Birds unless Oracle surrenders her satellites. Savant, once rescued, throws Black Spider out of the window. And perhaps worst of all, Batman arrives in Barbara's apartment, telling her that she must bring an end to Huntress' current activities.
