Batman: The Animated Series - 01x34 I Am The Night

Summary: On the anniversary of the death of Bruce's parents, Batman accompanies Dr. Leslie Thompkins to Crime Alley to deposit roses on the spot where they were gunned down. Batman expresses doubts about whether or not he should continue his one-man war against crime; is it doing any good? Is he fooling himself? While in the alley, he rescues a teen-aged street kid nicknamed Wizard from two thugs. Wizard is less than grateful, and Batman delivers him to a halfway house. Meanwhile, Commissioner Gordon, Bullock and Montoya are on stakeout to arrest the Jazzman, a gangster with a penchant for music and mayhem. Batman had promised to be there, and so Gordon delays the arrest until he can't wait any longer. Batman arrives to find a gun battle going on. He helps defeat the gangsters and arrest the Jazzman, but at a high cost -- Gordon is severely wounded.
