Plot synopsis
The episode begins in a Gotham city bank. A man enters and puts on a mask. He shoots out gas and everyone is knocked out. He breaks into the manger's office, forces the manger to open the vault and uses the gas on the manager before stealing the contents of the vault. After the opening credits we see James Gordon meeting Harvey Bullock at the bank. Bullock says that the people who were in the bank don't remember anything from the last 2 hours and that the security cameras have been cleared. In Selina Kyle's house, she hears about the recent robbery and is very interested. The Newspapers dub the criminal 'The Eraser, because he left no clues at the crime scene. The Eraser begins sending news to other criminals saying that he will work for them and steal what they want if they pay him. The Penguin hears about this and calls him in. The Eraser meets The Penguin and discuss the job. The next day The Eraser strikes again, this time completely clearing all the money in a bank. At The Eraser's base he meets up with The Penguin and his guards to get his money. A Police Officer sees what is going on, and a guard shoots him. The Penguin orders the body to be dumped in the lake. The Eraser leaves, saying he is visiting an old friend. Gordon gets a call from Bullock that The Eraser has been spotted, so he goes to see what is happening. Bullock attempts to arrest The Eraser, but he is sprayed with gas and knocked out just as Gordon arrives. Gordon demands that The Eraser surrenders, but The Eraser ignores him and drops a gas bomb to escape. He then hijacks a Taxi and drives to Wayne Manor. Bruce Wayne is reading the newspaper when The Eraser suddenly breaks in. Bruce is surprised and tries to fight him, but he is subsequently knocked unconscious. Gordon tracks The Eraser to Wayne Manor just in time. Bruce wakes up early, and he reveals that he has figured out that The Eraser is his old school friend, Lenny Fiasco. Fiasco takes of his mask, confirming Bruce's theory. Fiasco kicks Bruce in the face, but he is tackled by Gordon, and the 2 have a short fight, which ends when Gordon smashes a canister of gas and covers his mouth.
