* BatmanGambit: An example that gets performed ''on'' rather than ''by'' Batman. Dick admits that he knows Bruce could just restart the mansion's defenses with the Bat-Computer; therefore, he gave Damian a five-minute head start. Bruce could just reboot the system, let Damian go on patrol alone, and continue working, but it would go against the deeply-rooted PapaWolf tendencies that Dick's known about since his own tenure as Robin.
