Reluctantly, Alfred divulges that near the time of his death, Alan Wayne had become obsessed with owls. Bruce indicates that in addition to that, the assassin seems to want him to believe that he is the Talon - an agent of an organization called the Court of Owls, which is supposed to be a folktale. Alfred responds that no Wayne in the last 50 years has died suspiciously. Alfred Pennyworth warns that even bats need some sunlight once in a while in order to fly straight.īruce ignores him, noting that the assassin had stated that he loves killing Waynes. Despite a clear recording of the assassin's voice, there are no matches. In the Batcave, Bruce runs an analysis on the recording of the attack for voice recognition. Frustrated, Batman tells Luka to get his gang out of his tunnels. Unfortunately, Batman's in-cowl lie detector shows that he is telling the truth. Despite his defeat, Luca still professes to know nothing about the "Owl Man". Knowing about their masks, Batman disables all of them by activating a magnet which magnetizes an oncoming train, attracting all of the thugs faces to the side of the rail car as it speeds away with them stuck to it.
Luka sics several of his thugs - men who have had metal masks soldered around their face, and have been trained in various weapons overseas - on Batman. There are five gangs for each of the five rail lines in Gotham City, and Batman has already investigated the other four. And so, one of these rail gangs like Luka's "Whisper Gang" must have allowed him passage and extracted a toll of some kind. Batman has already deduced that the assassin used the rail tunnels that connect to Old Wayne Tower in order to gain entry. Now, Batman interrogates Ukrainian mobster Luka Volk about the man in a dark costume who attacked him earlier.
While the officers debate on what to do with him that will spare him the most possible embarrassment, he disappears down a manhole. In 1922, the police encounter a raving Alan Wayne, who seems to believe that someone is after him.
