Beat Them At Their Own Game: Difference between revisions

* The ''[[Batman: The Animated Series]]'' episode "Mad Love" is known to contain one of the best [[Batman Gambit]]s the [[Trope Namer]] has ever pulled, tricking the Joker into saving him from certain-death by convincing Harley to call him and let him know she was about to succeed in a goal he would ''never'' allow anyone but himself to do.

** ''However'', it is rarely noted that Batman was captured in the first place when a sobbing Harley called Gordon, claiming the Joker was trying to kill her and offering to turn herself in if Batman came to meet her. He did so, and when the Joker - or rather, a robot that looked like him - showed up with a machine gun, seemingly confirming her story, the hero tackled her to shield her from the attack, only for Harley to jab him with a sedative. That's right, ''Harley fooled Batman with her own Batman Gambit!''
