Once activated,
the device releases waves of hypersound.

177
00:15:12,703 --> 00:15:14,914
Strong enough to kill
anyone within earshot.

178
00:15:15,123 --> 00:15:18,000
Unless they're wearing
these special mufflers.

179
00:15:18,501 --> 00:15:20,878
Joker's got the bomb and
he's gonna use it tonight.

180
00:15:21,337 --> 00:15:23,089
He promised a
countdown of victims.

181
00:15:23,339 --> 00:15:25,925
And there's no bigger
countdown on New Year's Eve

182
00:15:26,008 --> 00:15:27,802
than at Gotham Square.

I love New Year's Eve.
So many happy faces.

00:15:46,446 --> 00:15:47,947
How's it coming, boys?

187
00:15:48,072 --> 00:15:51,117
All set, boss. We hooked up the
boom box just like you told us.

188
00:15:51,284 --> 00:15:52,827
Once the bell reaches the clock,

189
00:15:53,327 --> 00:15:55,746
everyone's getting
a real bad earache.

190
00:15:57,957 --> 00:16:01,419
I really have to congratulate
myself on this one.

191
00:16:01,502 --> 00:16:05,381
It's almost magic time,
and Batman is nowhere in sight.

192
00:16:05,465 --> 00:16:08,926
Of course, he does have that
annoying habit of spoiling my fun

193
00:16:09,010 --> 00:16:10,011
at the last minute.

194
00:16:10,803 --> 00:16:14,474

up on party favors.

- You're sure he'll be here?
- With murder on this scale,

197
00:16:28,946 --> 00:16:31,324
Joker will be close by
to enjoy his handiwork.

198
00:16:31,532 --> 00:16:34,619
Even in this crowd,
he'll stick out like a sore thumb.

Oop!

Not only has Joker found
the perfect hiding place,

he's fixed it so all his

I heard your buddy
had a rough night.

I wouldn't be surprised if
he didn't show this time.

In fact, unless I miss my guess,
