73INT. CAPSULE

74The controls, the glass nose-cone, the capsule itself are

all frosting over. The hatch opens. Robin drops in.

ROBIN:

I was just hanging around.

BATMAN:

I thought you were going to stay in

the museum and round up the thugs.

ROBIN:

How about, nice to see you? Glad

you're here to save my life.

75Robin pulls a laser from his utility belt, FLASH MELTS

one of his ice-shackles.

BATMAN:

When we get home, we're having a

little communication workshop.

Robin FLASH METLS the other ice gauntlet. Batman is free.

ROBIN:

Is it cold in here or is it just me?

76ALTIMETER - CLOSE. 20,000 and rising. Ice is forming

everywhere.

BATMAN:

Got to make sure this rocket doesn't

turn Gotham into a crater.

77Batman whips a bat-shaped charge, throws it onto the

ceiling. An armed light on the charge flashes green.

ROBIN:

Now what? We call a taxi?

78Batman grabs a handle marked CAUTION: EXPLOSIVE BOLTS.

Robin smiles, grabs a similar handle on the opposing metal

door.

BATMAN:

Watch the first step.

ROBIN:

Surf's up.

79Both pull the release handles, leaping onto the capsule

doors as the EXPLOSIVE bolts BLOW them into space.

80THE BATCHARGE LIGHT - CLOSE. Goes red.

81EXT. NIGHT SKY - FALLING

As the capsule EXPLODES above them raining falling

debris, Batman and Robin skyboard on the doors down

towards...

82FREEZE is ROCKETING to earth, the diamond in his hand.

83BATMAN AND ROBIN race towards Freeze and the city

below.

The caped crusaders avoid skyscraper turrets and elevated

bridges as they follow in Freeze's wake.

84BATMAN swoops down above the villain, pushing off his

skyboard, grabbing Freeze around the neck, the diamond

flying into mid air.

85ROBIN maneuvers in a grand flip, grabs the falling gem.

86/87 FREEZE releases his glide pack buckle, dislodging Batman,

the hero and the glide pack spinning away from Freeze.

88BATMAN dumps the glide pack, arcs back into his rushing

drop.

92FREEZE is descending fast towards the giant smoking

93chimney of a towering industrial complex. He aims his gun

at the smoking toward and FIRES, the fast maw quickly

covering with snow.

94Freeze plummets into the snowy chimney.

95BATMAN AND ROBIN drop into the ice shaft after the

villain.

96FREEZE FIRES his gun as he falls, slowing his descent by

turning the chimney into a madly snaking tunnel of ice

before him.

97BATMAN AND ROBIN tumble head first through layers of snow

after the villain. They pull their Batgrapples and FIRE.

98BATGRAPPLES - CLOSE. Hit the wall. Catch.

99BATMAN AND ROBIN use their tethers to slow their descent,

landing hard in...

100INT. INDUSTRIAL BASEMENT

A long submarine-like corridor
