Robin is left hanging at the end of this story while Batman looks for him.
(edit)
This is one of the only first-parter episodes in which the oft-repeated shot of Batman and Robin running into city hall does not appear. Instead, we see one of Bookworm's croonies watching City Hall from around the corner.
(edit) The 20,000-decibel super-amplified sound effect of Batman's Batcommunicator sound effect was previously heard on Season 1 episode Better Luck Next Time. (edit) The outside shot of the Wayne Memorial Clock Tower is actually Big Ben (London) at night. (edit) Ironically, these epsiodes appeared during National Library Week. (edit)
