But when the videos are analyzed in the Batcave, theories and speculation become moot, given Alfred's reaction. Simon and Jessica's rings fire off emergency warnings in response to one such "Bad Batman" viral video, analyzing the yellow light being emitted along with it - the yellow light of fear (chalk another one up for the Batman). But it's not the only surprise headed their way. After Batman and Gordon confirm to the Lanterns that they have, in fact, considered the groundbreaking theory that Scarecrow is behind the fear attacks, they head to the Batcave, where Jessica develops a theory that the fear may be delivered digitally, through new online videos promoting Batman as a threat to the public. Oblivious to the art of detectione, or simply believing that the simplest answer is the right one, Simon asserts his theory that this is a Scarecrow case, plain and simple (he found a new way to deliver fear toxin randomly, why not?). But Batman is a detective, first and foremost, which means he's discovered a common link between these mysterious "crimes of fear." Unfortunately for him, the connection is that all victims act out of a fear of Batman.
What began as random cases of people suddenly doing horrible things fueled by terrified panic has escalated, with dozens across the city simultaneously losing their minds, without rhyme or reason. Both Batman and Police Commissioner Jim Gordon debrief Simon and Jessica, explaining that this bout of homicidal fear isn't an isolated incident.
