Synopsis: - Disguised as aristocrat Sir Hemingford Gray and his chauffeur Charles, Bruce Wayne and Alfred close in on Asp, discovering a little of his plan, while the Hood, also a hunt saboteur, closes in as well. MI5 agent Cater demands a demonstration of what Asp can do, so he sends out instant death to the nearby village of Monkleigh. Still unaware of what Asp is doing with her power, Shondra nevertheless feels terrible and needs a breath of fresh air. Bruce recognizes her as she steps out, but she does not recognize Sir Hemingford Gray.
