E37: Cats that Laugh

Cats that Laugh is the tenth episode of Batman: Shadow War's season three. It is a Catwoman and Joker episode.

Plot
Catwoman is seen getting away with a diamond she stole from a jewel store and seen at the docks hiding until she spots the white-faced, green haired psychotic himself; Joker along with two henchmen Punch and Judy waiting for crime lord son Alberto Falcone for a deal. Catwoman hides still and puts away her diamond, watching as Alberto arrives with a cage and two bodyguards. Alberto sits on the cage and demands for the money, which Joker hands over and then comically tosses him a single coin on the pile of money he gave to Alberto. A grinning Alberto then opens the cage to reveal two laughing hyenas he names Bud and Lou.

Alberto and his bodyguards tries to leave, but Joker states he wants to know if his new pets can laugh and take jokes. He then grabs the bodyguards' hands and uses his lethal joy buzzer to shock them to death, the hyenas then begin "laughing" to Joker's delight and Alberto is scared as he has lost his protection. Punch then quickly alerts Joker of Catwoman after she is spotted, Joker orders them to go after her while he restrains Alberto with his trick streamers and hysterically takes him on his ferry while also rigging it with explosives, then sends him away from the docks while comedically waving until the ferry explodes, killing Alberto, and Joker then joins in the chase of Catwoman with his new pets. Catwoman is cornered by the hungry, threatening hyenas and Joker then knocks out Catwoman with his spring-loaded boxing glove.

Meanwhile, Bruce Wayne is seen in Wayne Manor talking to Alfred Pennyworth about Catwoman. While this was happening, Catwoman is tied to a deathtrap by Joker which is designed to rip apart Joker as it is giant joke teeth turned into a trap, Joker then uses his flower to squirt acid at the rope binding Catwoman which slowly starts tearing and the henchmen activate the deathtrap. Though upon hearing of an explosion at sea near the docks from the news, Batman goes to investigate this act. Catwoman saves herself from the trap by using her whip like a grapple hook to escape, causing a henchman to accidentally fall into the trap. Joker is enraged by this and he along with his hyenas began to hunt for her, but then spots Batman, pleased by his presence.

Catwoman encounters a brooding Batman and after some flirting, Joker interrupts this and orders his hyenas to attack Catwoman. The hyenas attack however Catwoman fights them off, rendering them unconscious while the clown laughs hysterically as he gets away and leads Batman into a trap by trying to crush him with cargos however he survives and Joker throws a razor playing card at a rope which drops another cargo for the Dark Knight to dodge.

Joker laughs when he manages to steal a ferry from a rich group, killing them while holding one hostage only for Batman and Catwoman to rescue her together, and Joker then fights the two while knocking Catwoman off the ferry for Batman to save. Joker sadistically says the rescue is "adorable" before drawing a knife in an attempt to kill Batman only for Catwoman to use her whips to choke the Clown Prince of Crime until he passes out. Joker is then taken back to Arkham Asylum while Catwoman tries to take off Batman's mask only for him to escape as he apologizes to go and fight more crime.
