Synopsis:

Robin, Nightwing and Huntress board Ra's al Ghul's ship, the Shrike. Huntress and Nightwing keep Ra's, Talia and their followers occupied, while Robin establishes a connection from al Ghul's computer to Oracle, so that she can access the data which will allow a cure for the Clench to be found. With the help of major mainframes across the country, she is able to find the information she needs, and the heroes escape the ship shortly before it explodes. Later, the bodies of numerous mobsters drift in on the tide, carried there from Blüdhaven.
