Plot
One night at Arkham Asylum, a group of masked men enter it and manage to silently take out any guards or anyone they come across. Eventually they reach Freeze's cell and while he is asleep, the group manage to take his frozen yet living wife with them. The next day, Freeze is horrified to see his wife's disappearance and has a mental breakdown. Batman eventually arrives with Robin to investigate the cell and finds a tape left behind from the kidnappers, playing it with Freeze witnessing.

It is a videotape of crime lord Carmine Falcone who is holding Freeze's wife hostage and threatens to pull the plug on her if he doesn't cooperate with his plan to make him "immortal". It is revealed Carmine has been losing power day after day due to his recent humiliations and losses against rivals like Penguin, Black Mask and Sal Maroni. Batman stops the tape and investigates it, seeing in the background the name of his location which is a ship.

Batman and Robin head there however when they leave, Freeze breaks out of the asylum to hunt down Falcone as well. Falcone reveals he knows the Dark Knight will be after him so he sets up various hostage situations and crimes around Gotham as well as endangering the lives of innocents, so the Dymanic Duo go to stop any deaths. Freeze then arrived on Falcone's ship and after managing to freeze one of his bodyguards, Falcone threatens Nora Fries which causes Freeze to surrender.

Falcone's research team restrained and examined Freeze in an attempt to look for "immortality" which Freeze apparently has. Once Batman and Robin rescue any victims, they move to the ship and use teamwork to defeat Falcone's guards. The research team then manage to find something and start working on it until Batman and Robin arrive with an angered Falcone ordering his bodyguards to stop them; this only merely buys time as the henchmen are easily thwarted. The head scientist then manages to finish off using Freeze's icy blood to cook up "immortality", however Robin throws his lasso at her which makes her throw the sample into the air as it takes her down, so Falcone catches and drinks it desperately. Freeze breaks out of his restraints and takes out the research team and any bodyguards left while trying to get to his wife, Falcone is then seen turning into Freeze's skin color and icy temperatures. A suffering crime lord wishes to test his immortality by setting off the explosives inside the ship, Freeze rescues his wife and escapes however after Robin attempts to save Falcone, he falls into the sea so the Dymanic Duo escape.

Batman and Robin inside the Batboat and the police attempt to search for Falcone however never found his body, presuming him dead. It is revealed Freeze returned to Arkham Asylum with his wife to continue in working on a cure for her.
