[on "Love That Baby"] I remember this show from when I was a kid. It still stinks.
“Baby-Doll” · Season 2, Episode 11
In this episode: Robin (4), Baby-Doll (4), Batman (3), Summer Gleeson (1)
[At Wayne Manor, Summer Gleeson is on the telephone talking to Marv Wolfman at her office.]
I don't care what Mayor Hill says. The people have a right to know, and if he won't talk to us-- [Batman drops a photo of Baby-Doll onto her desk] I'll call you back, Marv. [to Batman and Robin] Since when are you interested in has-been actors?
Since that one's been kidnapping her co-stars.
You're serious?
She's been picking them off, one by one. Any reason she'd have a grudge?
Actually, they should hate her. Dahl put them all out of work when she quit the series to become a "dramatic" actress.
[Summer plays a video of Mary Dahl playing Lady Macbeth]

What, will these hands never be clean? Here's the smell of the blood still. All the perfumes of Arabia will not sweeten this little hand.
Pee-yew.
That's what the critics said. Baby's dramatic career flopped, and when she tried to start her TV show again, the networks turned her down.
That still doesn't explain why she's after her old cast.
[picks up a cassette] Maybe there's a clue in these old episodes.
You can borrow them if you want. And when you crack the case, you can pay me back with an exclusive... [turns to see that they have vanished] interview.
Naughty, naughty, Daddys. Mustn't yell at your Baby like thats.

You're not my daughter, and we're not a family. We're actors, remember? You cancelled our show because you whined you weren't getting enough attention.
But I knows now I made a boo-boo. It was hard for me out there. I studied and trained and auditioned, but no one wanted me. [plays the sound of a crowd going "Aww..." on her tape recorder] Over the years, I remembered how happy I was with all of you around me, and the folks at home watching me each week. Me, Baby-Doll! [giggles] Now I'm Baby for good, and everyone will love me agains. Hugs, hugs.
[Her goons force the actors to share a hug with her, and she plays the "Aww..." again]
[watching episodes of Baby Doll's old TV show] Remember that time Poison Ivy nearly smothered us in those vines, with the really sharp thorns?
Yes.
This is worse.
[after her TV brother is rendered unconscious by her bodyguard] Sorry I had to play roughs, Tippy. I didn't mean to.
Wow, lady. You're good.

It's a living.
[Batman pursues Baby-Doll in a funhouse tunnel maze]
Silly Mr. Batman can't catch me.
Don't run away. I know you're scared, confused - I can help you.
Liar, liar, cape on fire.
Game's over, Mr. Batman. [laughs] I WIN! [Batman fires his grappling gun, knocking the doll-gun down a slide] No fair. [runs to retrieve it, and stumbles into a room full of fun-house mirrors. Picks up the gun, wandering through the various distorted reflections, until she comes to one that shows her as an adult] Look. That's me in there. The real me. There I am. But it's not really real, is it? Just... made up and pretend, like my family and my life and everything else! [turns to face Batman, who stands behind her] WHY COULDN'T YOU JUST LET ME MAKE-BELIEVE?! [fires at mirrors, and cries after breaking the mirror with her adult reflection. Batman approaches her] I didn't mean to.
