The United World Security Council delegates are unharmed by the end, [[BittersweetEnding but they all wind up with each other's languages and stereotypical national traits as well]]. Batman treats this obvious mistake as a miracle they shouldn't try to correct, because [[LiteralTransformativeExperience it may give the Security Council the necessary differences in perspective to bring about world peace]]; meanwhile, the members are ''still'' shouting over and ignoring one another, just in different tongues.

* VillainHasAPoint: During their cabal's first scene together, Catwoman finds Joker, Penguin, and Riddler bickering and their egos clashing. Catwoman blasts her colleagues; they're suppoused to be the ''United'' Underworld, after all. Riddler (and eventually the others) grudgingly concedes she's got a point. They're about to execute the greatest criminal scheme of their careers -- one that that will become the stuff of legend if they triumph -- and it'll all be for nothing if they ''don't'' all swallow their pride.

He's also the only villain who keeps his head when Batman attacks the submarine with depth charges during the climax, giving the order to surface. And Joker makes it clear to Penguin that he's not just another Mook when Penguin yells at him for leaning on the submarine's control panel.
