PLOT SUMMARIES:
The Cat's Meow:
Catwoman plans to steal the voices of visiting British rock singers Chad & Jeremy by using her new Voice-Eraser on a morning talk show host. She later uses her fiendish invention on Commissioner Gordon, but not before he tells her where the British rock duo will be staying in Gotham City, which turns out to be stately Wayne Manor.
In order to gain access inside the manor, Catwoman arranges to give Dick Grayson a free dance lesson & disguises herself as Miss Klutz, a teacher from Duncan's Dance Studio. After sneezing from a nearby dogwood plant, she gasses everyone and retreats.
Later, Batman and Robin pay a visit to The Dance Studio. There they make quick work of Catwoman's cronies; Eenie, Meanie, Miney and Moe and attempt to apprehend The Felineous Femme Fatale. She subdues them both with a knockout drug and transfers them to a giant echo chamber, where a dripping faucet magnified 10,000,000 times, threatens to reduce their brains to mush!
The Bat's Kow Tow:
The Dynamic Duo hum the chamber's F sharp above high C sympathtic vibration, which causes the echo chamber's glass walls to break, releasing them; they immediately race to the site of Chad and Jeremy's concert it's too late as Catwoman has already stolen their voices. She later appears on The Allen Stevens Show, where she announces her demands: $22,440,000 in order to ransom Chad & Jeremy's voices. The British Consul refuses to pay the ransom and so The Caped Crusader and The Boy Wonder must shadow The Catwoman to her new lair and recover the voices.
Tracing her to Mr. Oceanbrig's Hair Salon, Batman and Robin capture Eenie, Meanie, Miney and Moe but lose Catwoman. Batman chases Catwoman to a deserted alley where she pounces on him and threatens to liquidate him with a sonic gun! Apprehended by The Caped Crusader, she reveals to him how to restore the voices of Chad and Jeremy. Bruce Wayne and his brood end with enjoying Chad and Jeremy's concert with Commissioner Gordon and Chief O'Hara.
