Batman: The Animated Series: Season 3: Episode 11: The Terrible Trio
What’s the episode about? Three rich bored guys are tired of hunting rare game from helicopters, so they start robbing people. They get caught after they rob from someone they know, steal a personal, easily identifiable object, and punch a man in a face leaving a perfect imprint of a rare ring. Amateur hour. One of the guys chloroforms his girlfriend when she finds out and immediately decides to put her unconscious body in a car and push it off a cliff. What a sweetheart. It’s alright.
When does this frame happen? Near the beginning, after Batman and Robin first encounter the Trio alone in an apartment building at night.
Why are you sharing it? Based on dialogue, it looks like their first robbery was the night Batman and Robin found them. They zip-line out the window straight onto a boat on a dock they’ve rigged to explode. They escape. HOW DID THE NEWSPAPER HAVE PRISTINE IMAGES OF ALL THREE THE NEXT MORNING? Did they pose? Are these common masks? How did they know the bird was a vulture and not a hawk? How did they know it was a fox and not a wolf? Maybe the rich guys were so confident they sent their images to the newspaper. Absurd.
