The New Batman Adventures - 02x10 Beware the Creeper

Summary: A news reporter, who does a show about the Joker called Joker, is knocked into the very vat of chemicals that Jack Napier (the Joker) was 7 years ago, by the Joker. But not before being hit with The Joker's "Laughing Gas". That combined with the chemicals made him a schizophrenic, just like the Joker, called, The Creeper.

Harley Quinn: [singing] Happy anniversary, Mr. J / You're really swell and okay / It's seven years to the day-hey / Take the night off, let's play...

The Joker: Harley...
Harley Quinn: Wanna try some of my pie?
The Joker: Harley.
Harley Quinn: I'm sure you'll want seconds.

Batman: Who are you?
The Creeper: They call me..."Yellow-Skinned Wacky Man!" But I prefer the Creeper.
Robin: Call Arkham, quick.

The Joker: How about that, Bats? You broke my face and got seven years of bad luck. Are you going to try for fourteen or are you going to try to raise that anchorman out of the ocean?

Trivia

As Jack Ryder busts into the clothing store to redress himself, a sign above the boutique reads "Ditko's Vintage Clothing", named after Steve Ditko, the creator of The Creeper. A mannequin of The Question, another of Steve Ditko's characters is seen in the background as a mannequin.
Harley Quinn's anniversary song to Joker is an homage to Marilyn Monroe's famous rendition of "Happy Birthday" to President John F. Kennedy.
The dramatized Batman in Ryder's documentary looks similar to Batman in his very first appearance in Detective Comics #27.
During the episode, Joker accused the Creeper of "stealing his act". Coincidentally, Jeff Bennett, the voice of Creeper, went on to voice The Joker on Batman: The Brave and The Bold.
