Synopsis:

Catwoman is now working for Bane, although she is not at all pleased that she must hand over what she steals to him. Bane soon realises that her fence, Leopold, has no true loyalty to her and surmises he can be used. An assassin named Guillermo is in town, gunning for Bane, so Zombie puts him on Catwoman's trail instead. Guillermo gets Catwoman's location from Leopold and before long, Catwoman's apartment is in flames.
