Synopsis: - Batman calls on Poison Ivy's help when various Gothamites come down with an illness caused by a strange plant. She provides an antidote - it is secreted from her own skin - and it appears she is the cause of the problem. However, it becomes apparent that Doctor Wood, the new therapist at Arkham, is actually behind the illness. Ivy helps Batman end the problem, and is given a new, light-filled cell as a reward. Here she can work on her botanical experiments for the good of mankind.
