01x31 - Ace in the Hole

[bunniefuu]

Who wants a treat?

Leading Gotham's mutts away
couldn't be any easier.

Isn't that right,
Miss Kitka, my sweet?

Once all the dogs
are following my tasty treats,

I'll lead them away to the next city,
leaving Gotham a cat-only town.

A proper Kitty City.

Next stop, Metropolis.

Or should I say "Mutt-ropolis"?

Bad puppy.

It's the Bat-Truck.

Oh, bats.

I'll be back for you
once I have a fresh batch of treats.

Hey, buddy. I saw what you did.

That was really amazing.

You must be some kind
of super-pup.

Stop.

So cute.

I can't just leave you all out here
with Catwoman on the loose.

But there's plenty
of room in the Batcave.

Come on.

Okay. You can stay in my room

until I figure out
what to do with you.

Just please stay quiet
so we don't bother my friends.

Buff? Is that you?

Oh, I gotta go.

Try to keep your friends quiet.
Okay, buddy?

Is everything okay?

We heard some loud noises
coming from your room.

What?

It was just clumsy old me,
knocking stuff over.

But it's all good now.

It's all good.

Okay.

Well, how was your patrol?

Any action tonight?

Catwoman was trying to lure
all the stray dogs out of Gotham

and make it into a cats-only city.

Holy hubcaps.

No way.

Don't worry, we...
I mean, I scared her off.

Oh, let me grab that for you, Buff.

No need.

Do I hear barking?

Is there a dog in the Batcave?

No.

There's a whole bunch of them.

Hey, that tickles.

They're so cute.

Don't touch that.
Down, boy. Down, down.

Wait a minute.

Wait, no, please,
that's not a chew toy.

Dogs in the Batcave? Buff!

This one looks just like me.

I love her.

Buff, rescuing those strays
was the right thing to do

but the Batcave is no place
for a dog, let alone four.

I know.

But I just wanted to keep them safe.

And... and these dogs
are really special.

That one even stood up
to Catwoman by himself.

Well, if Catwoman's after them

maybe they should stay here
for a while.

How can you say no
to a face this cute?

Please...

And just for a little bit.

I suppose you're right.

- Really?
- All right.

- Yes.
- Awesome.

Best day ever!

Hey, you hear that, buddy?
You can stay.

Don't worry, BC.

You won't even notice
the doggies are here.

Most of the time.

I hope you're right

because Batman is on his way down
to do some work.

We can't let the dogs
bother Batman while he's busy.

I'll need everyone's help
to keep them out of sight.

- We're on it.
- We got this.

No problemo.

Come on, guys. Come with us.

We got to stay out of sight.

We got away with it this time

but there's no way
we can keep this up.

I know. We can't hide
the dogs like this forever.

And if Batman finds out

we'll be in trouble
with a capital "ouble."

I don't know about you

but I could use
a recharge after that.

Yeah.

Me too.

I am wiped.

Hey, buddy. I was thinking
we could go down to the park and...

Hey, where'd you go?

I don't see him.

I don't see any of the dogs.

BC, could you check
the security cameras?

It appears that the dogs
are heading back to Gotham.

Why would they do that?

They don't want us
to get in trouble with Batman.

I have also detected
that Catwoman is back on the streets.

Oh, no. She's probably
after the dogs again.

I've got to get to them
before Catwoman does.

The cat's out of the bag.

And this time, I'm ready for you,
Mr. Doggie Leader.

With this delectable steak as bait...

I'll lead you mutts
out of my city in no time.

You might be the pick of the litter

but let's see how you deal
with kitty litter.

What are you doing, buddy?

Dogs don't like fish.

Oh, but cats do.

That's a great idea.

It's nice and juicy.

Oh, bats.

We did it.

But I... I still can't leave
all of you on the street.

You all deserve a nice, loving home.

Wish I could make sure
you all get adopted.

Wait. Adopted.

Maybe we could hold
a pet adoption fair

and make sure you all get
the homes you deserve.

Seeing these sweethearts
with their new families

just makes my Bat-heart melt.

All of you are the real heroes
for opening your homes

to adopt these awesome dogs.

I guess all the dogs have a home now,
except for this guy.

Don't worry, buddy.
We can try again tomorrow.

Do you think we could keep him?

- Oh, you know, I'd love to, but...
- But what?

Batman.

We were hoping, you know,
that maybe we could...

Can we keep him? Please?

Owning a dog
is a big responsibility.

It's not a decision to take lightly.

Oh, we promise we'll make sure
he gets all the care he needs.

Yeah, we'll walk him and feed him
and clean up after him.

I Bat-promise.

- Please?
- Please?

Fine.

- Yes!
- Oh, yes.

How about we call you...

Ace?
