At the start of this Riddler's puzzle, Batman couldn't figure out what to do. He scanned his surroundings but found no solution. He then activated Detective Mode to survey the area. That was when he realized the green button ahead couldn't be triggered using a gadget. He had to press it manually. If he does that, the second gate ahead will open.
Batman used the Batmobile for this task. The plan was to drive the Batmobile at top speed, eject at the perfect moment, glide through the air, and press the button. It sounds simple, but the task was far more difficult in reality.
Batman failed in his first few attempts. Sometimes he couldn't glide in time, while at other times he landed in the wrong spot. He even lost control of the Batmobile once, and it went straight into the water. Yet, he did not give up. After several failures, he finally succeeded on his fifth attempt. He glided perfectly and managed to press the first green button.
As soon as the first button is pressed, the second gate opens. However, he saw another green button waiting. This time, the challenge is even tougher. While gliding, Batman must make a sharp right turn mid air, fly through a narrow passage, and press the second button. He again failed a few attempts. Finally, on his third try, he successfully presses the second button as well.
Then, the third gate opened. Now began the most difficult part. Batman had to glide a lot of distance, maneuvering around to reach the final green button located on the opposite side. A single mistake meant starting the entire process over from the beginning. Batman failed about six or seven times during this stage, yet he never gave up. Each time, he learned from his errors and tried again. Finally, with a perfect glide, he succeeded in pressing the last button.
As soon as the final button is pressed, power returns to the main screen. An important clue appears on the screen, indicating which room holds the real key. Batman immediately contacts Catwoman and tells her to retrieve the key for the correct room.
Following Batman's instructions, Catwoman picks up the exact right key and successfully unlocks one of the locks on the bomb around her neck. Had she chosen the wrong key, the bomb would have detonated instantly. Fortunately, Batman's analysis was spot-on. However, the danger was far from over; this was merely one puzzle. To free Catwoman completely, four more difficult clues still had to be solved.
