Barbara Gordon has summoned Dick Grayson to be her assistant for during the Congressional hearings. As the people at the Capitol Building prepare to celebrate the Bicentennial, the evil spectre of Benedict Arnold appears and starts creating havoc in order to rehabilitate his soiled reputation. Batgirl and Robin take action against the ghost of Benedict Arnold when he attempts to control Washington, D.C.. The heroes are lead to a place outside, where they fight the army of Arnold and they manage to overcome their enemies. However, they are eventually confronted by Arnold himself, who has help from a mysterious man that provides them with mystical swords. Batgirl and Robin work together as a team in order to defeat Arnold and when the ghost is defeated, his mysterious companion reveals himself to be a Demon from hell, who takes Arnold back after his failure to defeat the heroes. Batgirl and Robin finally realize that Arnold was trying to destroy them, but that their teamwork overpowered his evil nature. After a successful mission, Robin tries to give Batgirl the "quit the crusade" bit, but she is faster than him and shuts him up by giving him a powerful kiss. The young heroes part ways and later, they meet again as Barbara Gordon and Dick Grayson back at the Capitol Building, where the bicentennial celebration continues.
