Plot
Batman and Nightwing discover that Poison Ivy and Floronic Man have teamed up. Much to
their reluctance, they decide to look for Harley Quinn (Ivy's best friend and Joker's usual sidekick), to find out where the
duo are hiding; however, Harley has gone off the grid since getting paroled.
Batman leaves finding Harley to Nightwing, while he gets information from A.R.G.U.S.. At A.R.G.U.S. HQ, Batman learns
that Ivy and Woodrue stole the information on Swamp Thing's birth, and kidnapped a scientist
who could help them replicate the process and turn everyone into plant people.
Nightwing finds Harley waitressing at a restaurant. Tailing her, Nightwing
angers her since she wants to live a normal life, but her past as a super
criminal keeps her from getting hired as a psychiatrist. Eventually the two
have an intimate moment with each other with the result being Harley is
convinced to help. Batman walks in on the two.
Harley leads them to
Slaughter Swamp, in Bludhaven, where Ivy is
saddened to see her friend helping Batman. Woodrue fatally wounds the scientist
to keep him quiet, as he and Ivy escape; however, the dying man reveals that
the duo are heading to Louisiana, where the
correct swamp chemicals are. Contacting A.R.G.U.S., Batman, Nightwing and
Harley head after them to convince Ivy to stop. Harley resorts to crying to
convince Ivy, who is finally swayed by their friendship. Swamp Thing appears,
informing Woodrue that he would threaten the Green with his concoction;
however, he will not interfere. Batman and Nightwing wonder how to stop
Woodrue, until Harley points out he is a plant and asks if they have a match.
Grateful, they both give her a kiss on the cheek and set Woodrue on fire.
Post-credits, Harley has
gone back to being Dr. Quinzel. However, she now has a reality game show, where
she makes her patients face their fears.
