Batgirl is drowning, but is saved by the spirit of Spoiler, who encourages her to fight for her life, and also helps her remember some things from her past. Later, Batgirl begins a tentative friendship with Brenda Miller, and also tips the police off about the Penguin's arms deal with the Brotherhood of Evil. Unfortunately, someone in the police department tips off the Penguin, who escapes, but Batgirl is able to defeat the Brotherhood.
