The film was written, directed and edited by Jack Hillebrecht, and was released on March 24, 2017. After years of searching, The Joker finally tracks down Dev-Em and plans on buying his mysterious drug serum, Titan. The tenth and final episode, Why Do We Fall?, was released a week later.

Plot
Joker meets with his henchman Bozo, who was supposed to have been killed some time earlier. Joker intends to kill Bozo himself, but Bozo reveals that he has a lead on the Titan serum; Bozo made contact with Dev-Em, who agreed to sell Joker some of the serum. Having overheard Joker's conversation, Robin relays the information to Batman, and they intend to thwart the deal. Batman wears an armored batsuit for the mission, which he built in the event that he had to fight Superman.

Joker meets with Dev-Em, who warns him of the serum's grotesque effects on mortals - though Joker is unphased by this. Batman and Robin soon intervene, to which Joker hiijacks Dev-Em's truck and drives off. Dev-Em flips over the truck, infuriated by Joker's attempt at stealing the Titan serum. Joker pays Dev-Em before Batman arrives and fights him. Robin takes on Dev-Em, who grabs him and flies off. Dev-Em throws Robin down the interior of a clock tower, though Batman manages to save him. A disoriented Dev-Em plummets to the ground, and is apprehended by police. Commissioner Gordon tells Batman that they'll bring the Titan serum to a secure location. Shortly after, Batman finds a note from Joker, and learns that he abducted Robin.

Dev-Em is imprisoned at the Bell Reve Institute in Lousiana, where he meets its director, Amanda Waller. The Instutite houses hostile extraterrestrials such as Sinestro, who asks Dev-Em about the condition of their master, Darkseid. Dev-Em says that Darkseid will come soon, but he's displeased with Sinestro's failures.

Batman tells Alfred that Robin was captured, and doesn't intend to rest until he's been rescued.
