Holy Alternate Identities! During a psychiatric session at the Mount Ararat Hospital, the delusional King Tut bores his doctor to sleep and promptly escapes; he then rejoins his gang of Tutlings, Suleman the Great, Florence of Arabia, and Manny the Mesopotamian, and together they steal $47,000 from the Rosetta Stone Company. Back at their hideout at the Florence of Arabia Bellydancing Club, the mad monarch reveals that he has located a deposit of nilanium, the hardest metal in the world, directly beneath stately Wayne Manor; he uses the stolen money to purchase an adjacent property and then begins preparations to blast a mine shaft. Learning of the theft, Batman and Robin consult the Batcomputer and determine the corpulent king’s latest scheme, but when they hear of the shaft aimed straight at the Batcave they become concerned that its Batanium Shield Lining may not withstand the blast. Accompanied by Batgirl, the Dynamic Duo head off to Tut’s mine to investigate, and arrive just as Tut and his foreman, H.L. Hunter, realise that they may have reached the nilanium. Confronted by the three crime fighters, Tut and his henchmen make a break for it in a mining car; Batman and Robin give chase, instructing Batgirl to stay behind to ensure that she does not discover the Batcave; however, Tut and his Tutlings speed down the track, crash through a wall and end up inside the Batcave - leading them to instantly deduce the two heroes’ secret identities…
