Fire!
Interesting.
Guard? Guard?
Guard!
Help me!
You gotta give Mr. Freeze credit.
That's the most original breakout this year.
Yes, but I don't think he was behind it.
Look at the fear on his face.
That's not easy to fake, especially for a man claiming to be dead to emotions.
Freeze was taken against his will, and obviously by a robotics expert.
Then maybe we'd better consult our own robot expert.
Greetings, dynamic duo.
I'm your biggest fan.
What is it?
I just wanna help.
Just wanna help. Just wanna help.
Poor little critter. I never could get his programming right.
Cute toy, Karl.
You know I'm out of the robot business, Batman.
All I make anymore are little friends to keep me company.
Like Tiny, here?
Well, if it isn't old M-9.
- It's one of yours? - Not really.
I once created a smaller prototype for Grant Walker.
- The guy who builds those theme parks? - Yeah.
I was one of Walker's original visioneers.
Constructing and programming the animatronic figures...
he used in his park.
Though it looks like old Grant's boys pumped up the design a bit.
I'm wondering how improved these robots are.
And why one of them was sent to kidnap Mr. Freeze.
Impressive.
"Impressive"?
You gaze upon all this and can only say "Impressive"?
Though perhaps I shouldn't be surprised.
I've made a hobby of studying your chilly history, Victor Fries.
And you are?
Grant Walker, at your service, sir.
This is Oceana, my prototype vision of the future.
A vision that you shall help make a reality.
Doubtful.
We'll see. Make sure that our guest is comfortable.
We've picked up an unauthorized craft entering our area.
Can't afford nosy trespassers at this stage of the game.
Dispatch our usual deterrents, Mr. Johnson.
I don't see why a theme-park mogul would kidnap Mr. Freeze.
Men like Walker are obsessed with getting their own way.
And they don't let little things like the law stop them.
I'm picking something up on the scanner. Three small objects coming in fast.
Hang on.
The power shorted out.
And those things are coming back.
- Intruder threat has been neutralized, sir. - Excellent.
Looks like we're swimming home.
Not before we have a talk with Mr. Walker.
I think you'll find that suit is a perfect duplicate of your original.
Automatic temperature control, increased cybernetic strength.
Even the cold gun works.
Yes. Logically, I should do the same to you.
Just hear me out, please.
As I said, I've studied you and your work.
Do you realize that in your frozen state...
you'll age much slower than an ordinary human?
You're practically immortal, my friend.
Yes, eternal life trapped in this wretched shell.
What a miserable joke.
Miserable to you, but a godsend to me.
Look at me, Mr. Freeze. I'm an old man.
I've created wonders in my lifetime, but there is still so much to do.
I want to change as you have.
To become, like you, a being of blessed, eternal cold.
You're insane.
Only you know how to duplicate the accident that made you what you are.
What I long to become.
You want to live like this?
Abandoned and alone?
A prisoner in a world you can see, but never touch?
Old and infirm as you are...
I'd trade a thousand of my frozen years for your worst day.
Actually, I had another kind of swap in mind.
Nora.
I was a major investor in Gothcorp a few years back...
and put up some money for their cryogenics program.
I trust you know the young lady behind the glass.
My wife.
The Gothcorp execs think she perished in the fire, but my men got her out.
I have the technology to restore her, my friend.
All you have to do is grant my wish.
Very well.
Welcome, friends.
Thanks to all our hard work, Oceana's nearly up and running.
Now, while most folks believe Oceana's just another theme park...
we know better.
Fact of the matter is, it's not too nice out there anymore.
Crime, hatred, violence...
things keep going on like that...
it could mean the end of civilization.
That's why I decided to build a city where good folks can live in peace.
A new Garden of Eden, you might say.
From which a new race of people can spring.
Now, of course you can't have spring without a little winter.
About five years of it, I'd say.
Now, don't anybody worry.
We'll all be warm as toast in here.
As for those folks outside, well, it's sad...
but I'm only speeding up what they were doing to themselves.
Brother. He's all heart, isn't he?
Walker's a madman.
- Look. - Every time I open a park...
I get gatecrashers.
We've seen your insane vision of the future, Walker.
My world will have no crime, violence or pain.
You can add free will to that list too.
A small price to pay for order.
Your order.
For your select few.
Excuse me, but I fail to see the problem with that.
Freeze, I don't know what Walker said or promised you...
but you can't help him go through with it.
I have no choice.
I know it's a bit chilly in there...
but I figured you'd like to stick around and see the show.
How are we doing?
- Ready. - Let's do it.
Incredible.
This suit has more power than I ever dreamed.
- Are you all right, sir? - This takes a little getting used to.
Once Project Deep Freeze is completed, you won't need the suit.
Well, let's get that started. Coming, Mr. Freeze?
I've done what you wanted.
Now leave me alone with my wife.
Suit yourself.
You can't let Walker do this.
Billions of people will perish.
That's not my concern.
All that matters is I once again have my wife and the means to restore her.
She'll wake up in a dead, frozen world that you helped destroy.
- She'll hate you for that. - Silence.
You think you're alone now?
- Wait until she learns the truth. - I said, silence!
Forgive me.
Come. There is much to do.
The cannon is operational, sir.
Excellent.
You've come to join us after all, my friend.
Wait. What are you doing?
Stop him!
This is my dream.
My vision!
I cheated death to make it real, and you won't stop me.
You may live forever, Grant Walker, but your mad dream dies now.
What are you doing? That's the main power core.
An overload will blow this city out of the water.
Exactly.
No!
Attention, all residents of Oceana.
Your city is doomed.
If you value your lives, you will evacuate now.
That is all.
- Mr. Walker! - Get out of here. Now!
There's our ride.
- Let's go. - I'm staying with Nora.
Don't be a fool. This whole place is going under.
I won't lose her again.
There's nothing you can do for her. Come with us.
I am the least of your worries.
Robin.
Take the boy and go.
Relax. You're going to be okay.
We're together again...
my love.
Man. If I spent any more time in that immersion tank, I'd be growing gills.
I'm glad I was able to get you back in time.
Thanks.
I thought I'd wind up like Walker, trapped in an ice cube forever.
What about Mr. Freeze? You think he's gone for good?
I'm not sure.
But if Freeze's condition has made him truly immortal...
we may not have seen the last of him.
