Holy Speechlessness! Catwoman devises a scheme to purr-loin the voices of visiting British rock singers Chad and Jeremy with the aid of her new Voice-Eraser. After demonstrating the device on the morning talk show host, Harry Upps, she uses the machine to coerce Commissioner Gordon into revealing that the singing duo are to stay in Gotham City at stately Wayne Manor; having silenced Gordon with the Eraser, Catwoman then dons the disguise of Miss Klutz, a teacher from Duncan's Dance Studio, and arranges to give Dick Grayson a free dance lesson. Once inside the manor she uses gas to send everyone to sleep, but is then forced to make a hasty retreat when an allergic reaction to a dogwood plant causes her to sneeze off her disguise. Batman and Robin decide to investigate Duncan’s Dance Studio and speedily deal with the felonious feline’s cronies, Eenie, Meanie, Miney and Moe; but when they try to capture Catwoman herself, she renders then unconscious with a knockout drug and then prepares to destroy them inside a giant echo chamber…
