The slums of Gotham City have been struck by arson. Someone has convinced the homeless to burn down six derelict buildings in a short time. The fact that these people have been coerced into hurting their own is infuriating for Batgirl. When she catches a group of them in the act of setting fire to a building, she becomes distracted by the sound of a baby's cries and finally urges the men she was beating up to get out of the burning building so that she can save the baby. Carefully, she seeks out the woman and child who are trapped in the building, and helps them to safety. This act is witnessed by Catwoman, who is unimpressed by Batgirl's show of selflessness.
