With a brainwashed Alfred supplying the information he needs, the Penguin executes his plan against the wealthy social dinner. The Penguin learns the location of the Multi-millionaires Annual Award Dinner from Alfred: on board Bruce Wayne's S.S. Gotham Neptune. His female fink Finella replaces the beauty queen for the chosen charity Miss Natural Resources, pops out of a giant cake at the diner and proceeds to gas all the multimillionaires present, as well as Bruce Wayne and Master Grayson's replacements: Batman and Robin. "Batman Makes the Scenes" sees the Dynamic Duo escape their vacuum death trap all too easily, via oxygen tanks in their utility belts, poor Octopus (Victor Lundin) and Shark (Dal Jenkins) madly puffing away with no result! The Penguin (Burgess Meredith) has promised the lovely Finella (Julie Gregg) that she'll become a beauty queen, calling upon a brainwashed Alfred to divulge the secret location of the Multimillionaires Annual Award Dinner, where the chosen female pops out of a cake, representing their charity of choice. Miss Natural Resources (Lisa Mitchell) is the not so lucky winner, as she is swiftly replaced by Finella, accompanied to the banquet by Batman himself. Knockout gas renders everyone unconscious, enabling the crooks to make off with 12 million dollars in stolen cash, but a surprise awaits their return to the South Pier.
