Synopsis: - Benedict Asp has spirited "Sir Hemmingford Gray" away to Santa Prisca, where he wishes to learn how the man survived his and Shondra's psychic attack and what connection he has to Shondra. Here, Sir Hemmingford Gray lets Shondra know that he is Bruce Wayne in disguise, and tries to help her, learning that she is slipping in and out of a childlike state. In the final confrontation, Asp is killed by Shondra, sending her into a childlike state permanently, but not before she releases her healing energy into Bruce Wayne, allowing him to walk unaided once more. He sets up an estate where she will be safe, but regrets losing the woman he truly loved.
