Plot
In Arkham Asylum, Poison Ivy is seen in the cafeteria sitting next to Harley Quinn eating their food. However, Ivy speaks to Harley about an escape plan and then Harley goes to tell Joker only for Ivy to stop her; wanting a "Girls' Night Out". After Ivy seduces a security guard and kills him with poison, Harley uses her knowledge of the asylum to go through until Aaron Cash along with two guards spot them and go in to arrest him however the guards are killed and Cash is incapacitated. The two get into a nearby car and go into the city, heading to Ivy's hideout and planning a crime spree.

Joker, still in his cell, hears of their escape from some guards panicking and trying to find them. The Clown Prince of Crime wonders why she didn't help him out which is unlike her and remembers back on their crimes together, even fantasizing. Joker then growls; claiming she might have found a new guy or even betrayed him, so then he wishes to find out. Joker then fakes sickness so a guard comes to try to help him; arming himself knowing of the Joker's tactics. Joker however reveals a hidden knife from the cafeteria and slits his throat and steals his uniform and equipment including his gun. Joker, disguised, goes into a car and grins menacingly while he drives out of the asylum on the hunt for his moll.

Meanwhile, Ivy and Harley in their hideout with Ivy injecting Harley with immunity to any toxins, bacterias and diseases like her. Both villainesses then go on a crime spree which involved attacking "sexist" meetings and even raiding the city; causing chaos and anarchy in their names as powerful women. Batman and Robin spot these and pursue the two, with Harley mocking Robin and using a Bazooka in an attempt to kill him while Ivy tries to use her poison-tipped bow to kill Batman. However Joker along with his henchman, Mr. Hammer, intervene and attack the Dymanic Duo. However after seeing the women, Joker orders Hammer to fight Batman and Robin while he goes after them.

At their hideout, Harley and Ivy are seen worried that Batman and Robin would find them; only that someone worse arrive instead. The Joker made his welcome into their home while Harley and Ivy were checking the plants, with Joker eating some spinnach formed to make the clown's face and ate it to Ivy's dismay. Ivy politely told Joker to leave however the clown grinned and closed the door, saying he came to claim what is rightfully his. He then holds Harley's hand which makes her quite happy but tells him she has a new friend now and then tells him she'll come home soon. Joker then angrily accuses her of betrayal for not breaking him out, however Ivy stops Joker from doing anything and tells him it was her idea of leaving him behind. Joker then mockingly says "you like flowers don't you?" before using his flower to spray his deadly Joker Venom on her to Harley's horror.

Ivy begins laughing but then reveals her immunity to such poisons which annoys Joker, so he claims he'll do it the old fashioned away, then draws a gun and starts shooting at her so Ivy begins avoiding gunfire and hides in the other room. Harley begs her "boyfriend" to stop only for Joker to push her back and states it'll only take a second before drawing a knife and begins hunting. Ivy then fires her arrow at him but Joker avoids it and nearly kills Ivy by pinning her to the ground and struggling to stab her in the throat with his knife, until an unconscious Hammer is sent flying through the door by Batman and Robin who just arrived. Joker laughs and says they're late for the party, then starts shooting at them with Batman throwing a Batarang to disarm him. Ivy then tries to kill Joker only for Robin to save the madman by throwing a shuriken at her. In a fight which leads to Ivy being trapped in her own plants and Joker being smashed into the table, Harley attempts to use a bomb to throw at Batman however he simply throws a Batarang at it, causing it to explode in mid-air which knocks her out.

When the police arrive and Joker forms a bloody smile at a frowning Ivy, the villains are arrested and taken back to Arkham Asylum. Robin then talks to Robin and the heroes return to Wayne Manor where Alfred Pennyworth has made them chicken dinner.
