Superman: "Hi, J'onn. Have a seat. Close the door." J'onn (confused, closes door): "What's going on?" Icon: "We found Batman's Contingency plans." J'onn: "Which ones?" Orion (slams table): "The ones where he painfully takes us down!" J'onn: "Oh...Have you talked to him about it?" Superman: "You and I know that Bruce wouldn't respond to that." J'onn: "Okay, so what is this? Are we thinking of alternative ways to confront him about it?" Everyone: "Pfft." Icon: "No. Bruce won't learn anything, regardless. We might as well mess with him for it." J'onn: "I dunno..." Orion: "He sets you on fire eternally in yours." J'onn: "What do you have in mind?" Later... Superman: "So? What do you think?" Icon: "...It's Batman. Y'know? World's greatest detective?" Orion: "You're right...Martian! Do you think you could bring down the Bat's IQ?" J'onn: "Lobotomize him?" Orion: "I never said that." J'onn: "...Okay I can, theoretically, make his intelligence lower than it usually would be. But I need a point of reference so he's not a vegetable. But it can't be high enough that he'll notice." Superman: "Anyone have any suggestions?" Booster Gold busts through door: "Hey, do you guys have Wifi yet? I need the password." Superman: "Perfect."

This is easily one of the most hilarious and bat-shit insane plots I've listened to on this channel. And the shame of it is that every ten minutes, Sal and Company would come up with a much better plot off the cuff. The idea of Batman being abducted by aliens isn't bad by itself---the first third of this was admittedly pretty interesting. It's just that this should've been the beginning of a much grander plot; one that should've involved the Justice League. But instead, we're given a random X-Files episode, but with Batman. But even the more comedic episodes of the X-Files were more dignified than this. The second Bruce Lee showed up, that's where I gave up.
