[bunniefuu]

[Thunder]

Ford, Carter, Reagan, bush, Clinton Max: Yeah? I don't know.

Come on, Clinton was the fun one, then came the boring one.

They're all boring.

[Thunder]

Whoa! Sounded close.

Yeah.

We're in for it.

Gotta go, Max.

Are you all right? We're fine.

Thank you for your help.

We can take it from here.

You have 30 minutes.

I suggest you not linger on any one of them.

Who's the boring one? Quiet.

You have to help me.

I don't want to go.

I refuse to go.

Please help me.

What? Please, I don't want to go.

Please help me.

I don't understand.

Mr.

mcginnis, what don't you understand? Uh, nothing.

Sorry.

Please, you have to help me.

I don't want to go.

I refuse to go.

Please help me.

Please Whew.

Please, you have to help me.

I don't want to go.

I refuse to go.

Please help me.

Please.

"Help me.

Help me.

" Over and over again, like a broken disk.

And then she vanishes.

Yeah.

[Sighs]

[Whines]

Guess what.

[Grr]

She's here.

Yep.

Right there, asking for help again.

Talk to her.

Who are you? Tamara.

What are you doing here? I need your help.

Yeah.

I got that.

So where are you? Jeez.

What do you see? Not you or the mutt.

It looks like a living room, real swanked out.

Her parents are over there on the phone.

Bruce: Can you I.

D.

The place? Yeah.

On the pillows.

Man: She's doing it again.

You're calling again, aren't you? Who are you calling? Tell me now! Whoa.

What happened? Daddy's mad.

What was on the pillows? Letters G.

P.

T.

Gotham park towers.

I'm glad you could come.

It makes me look a little less conspicuous.

Right.

I've never seen you in a dress before.

You look good.

I only make this sacrifice for lobster thermidor.

This is on the boss man? Every bite.

Schway.

That's her.

Any messages for 1884? Clerk: No, ma'am.

Save me some dessert.

Tamara: They know! Look out! I can't even make out their faces.

You don't have to.

Your subconscious will see her if she's there.

Just try not to blink.

I can't believe all these kids are missing.

Believe it.

[Beeping]

Yeah, that's her.

"Tamara caulder.

" Reported missing yesterday.

Address: 2014 riverside, apartment 33.

What the-- easy.

I'm not here to make trouble.

I've been talking to your girl.

We're not rich people, and raising Tamara has been tough.

She isn't like other kids, but I guess you know that.

When they told us about their special school, it was like a godsend.

Finally, she could get the help she needed.

Right after they took her, Joyce realized that she forgot to pack her favorite toy.

I called them up right there and then But no one answered.

None of the numbers! It was all bogus, the whole school! Where have they taken her? Where is my girl? I'm trying to find that out, Mrs.

caulder.

Is there anything else you can tell me? Anything at all? Well, I heard the woman on the phone.

She didn't know I was listening.

She kept taking about the brain trust, like it was something important.

The brain trust.

Tell me, where was this school they showed you? Yeah, there are desks, but just on this floor.

And all the computers are just empty frames.

It was made to look like a school.

Any luck on the brain trust? It's an international society, very secretive.

Headquarters are somewhere in Europe, they think.

That's it? I'm still talking to interpol.

But it's fairly evident what the brain trust is about just by its name.

There was nothing brainy about the guy in the hotel.

Oh, no? Think about it.

He was invulnerable and felt no pain, like shamans who walk on hot coals.

It's mind over matter.

I hate it when you blitz me like that.

Just see what you can find.

YouLooks like school's out.

Maybe you can tell me what's going on.

Aah! [Screaming]

[Groans]

Unh! Unh! [Groans]

It's crashing me down, Max.

Where could she be? Grip yourself, ter.

What about the fat man? What'd he have to say? They took him down to county.

I don't think he's gonna be forming sentences for a while.

If she'd only contact me.

Max: Maybe she's not here anymore.

No.

She's in Gotham somewhere.

Don't ask me how I know.

I just do.

I canFeel it.

Hey, I believe anything on this case.

[Bell dings]

Ooh.

Time to reveal the new more natural me.

I'll call you later.

Speak to me.

Tamara's voice: I have to whisper.

Tamara, is that you? Shh! We have to be quiet.

They can hear.

Are you all right? Yes, but you've gotta find me.

We're leaving tonight.

Where are you? In a boat.

Where's the boat? In the water.

Where in the water? I don't know! Ok.

Ok.

Don't get upset.

Is there anything you see that can help me? Like the name of the boat, anything? Tamara! I'd eat if I were you.

There aren't any snacks on this cruise.

Any word from Edgar? Not yet.

Something must've gone wrong.

Batman got him.

Tell the captain I want to leave now.

No more delays.

I don't expect you to understand, but we have your best interest in mind.

You're a gifted girl, Tamara, just like me.

While others can only tap into 10% of their brains, we can go deeper.

It's what separates us from them.

The brain trust will make you see that.

Together, people like us will change the world.

I don't want to change the world.

I want my mommy and daddy.

Aah! Don't even think of trying to call him.

It would be useless at this point.

Remember, we can hear you, too.

[Clanking]

I knew you'd find me.

Yeah, well, your mom was worried you'd be missing this.

Pugli! Come on.

By the way, what's the creepy lady's power? I don't know, but they call her "bombshell.

" Oh, that's encouraging.

Keep going.

I'll take care of them.

Go! Give her up, Batman! She doesn't belong to your kind.

Uhh! It was a trick.

He doesn't have her.

We'll take care of him first.

One down.

I'm impressed, Batman.

That would've taken out a small infantry.

Of course, there's nothing like a direct hit.

[Shrieking]

Aah! Unh! Uhh! Aah! [Groans]

[Growls]

Aah! [Grunting]

No Oh Where are you?! Aaarh! I love it.

Ghost girl ends up saving your butt! I'd call it a mutual butt-saving situation.

Whatever.

Actually, it turned out pretty good.

Tamara and her parents were put under protective custody.

Not only do they end up in a better place, but they got doctors to help her with her powers.

You think she's doing ok? Oh, yeah.

I've got a feeling she's doing just fine.
