At the police station, Tom Lone oversees the lip print analysis of a smudge taken from a glass in Patience's apartment compared with some smeared lipstick on Tom's cheek from his encounter with Catwoman at the theater. The computer determines that there is a 99.9% match between the two prints.

Meanwhile, Catwoman arrives at the Hedare mansion, where Laurel meets her and insists that she has enough evidence to pin Slavicky's murder on someone. Laurel leads Catwoman to George's dead body, where it lies on the floor covered in scratch marks. Laurel quickly hurls a smoking gun at Catwoman before sounding an alarm and sobbing that Catwoman killed her husband.

Catwoman flees the scene, and finds herself anxiously roaming the nighttime streets. Patience watches a conspicuous news story about Catwoman murdering George.

When Patience enters her apartment the next morning, she finds Tom already waiting for her. Tom immediately arrests Patience.

While it has thus far appeared that the Catwoman City Police Department is comprised of Keystone Cops who couldn't out-sleuth, well, the original Keystone Cops , this chapter demonstrates the kind of cutting-edge forensic technology that keeps their department afloat. When Tom Lone hits upon the brilliant idea of comparing lip prints to determine whether Patience and Catwoman might have anything in common, it is fortunate that his office is equipped with a machine that can analyze photographed lipstick smears with an astonishing 99.9% certainty.

On the other hand, Tom may want to think twice about trusting his department's resident experts, as they also sounded pretty sure that the writing found on Tom's coffee cup and the paper bag at the jewelry store could not possibly have been written by the same person. And while lip prints are accepted by the FBI as a means of positive identification, the kind of smudge left on Tom's face after Catwoman licked his face two nights ago indicates nothing but her lack of class, as well as Tom's need to wash his face more often.

When Catwoman shows up to meet Laurel, we reflect on her remarkable lack of ability to judge character; like a fool, Catwoman has not even suspected that Laurel might be manipulating her, despite her broadly evil mannerisms -- not the mention the fact that Patience must have seen and/or heard Laurel at the meeting where Slavicky revealed Beau-line's face-rotting properties . Just like a cat, however, Patience has wandered into a dangerous situation so obliviously as to deserve anything bad that happens to her.

Fortunately for Catwoman, the same monumental hubris that makes Laurel think she can get away with releasing Beau-line also makes her think she can successfully frame someone by tossing a gun into their conspicuously gloved hands. Catwoman bolts nevertheless, leaving Laurel howling in the arms of Armando; this lasts until the camera is directly on Laurel, at which point her face instantly reverts to maleficent triumph in order to reassure the audience that she is still evil.

As Patience nervously hides from passing cars on the street, clad in yellow tracksuit stolen from Laurel's bedroom, it seems strange that she would worry about someone recognizing her when her own boyfriend can't figure out who she is without the mask and leather outfit. Perhaps Patience is afraid that Laurel will pull up and demand her clothes back, surely not an unlikely scenario for a remorseless kleptomaniac like Catwoman. To be sure, it is a relief when we see Tom waiting to take Patience into custody, especially considering that she has been out all night, probably robbing banks and terrorizing more nightclubs.
