not a big deal, just thought i'd point it out.

when bruce goes to that store to buy that grappling hook and "a flare gun and some flares", he enters the store wearing his brown and yellow suit, which he was wearing on the drive over to the store and the scene before that, but when he leaves the store he's in a grey sweater, which he wears for the rest of the ep, untill he wakes up.

but i guess since it was all a dream, well, things like that happen in dreams, although i'm sure it was a mistake. figured id point it out. peace.

--since he's going out after dark, he changed into something more suited for the job--in the bathroom, perhaps. Now we didn't see him walk in with his spare clothes under his arm, though we have seen him inexplicably pop into the Batsuit and wondered where he was carrying it. Recall the bit in the first Clock King ep where we see Bruce's silhouette in the stairwell through the window, and it abruptly sprouts a cape and cowl. Now how did he change in five seconds in a stairwell--and did no one suddenly emerge from a stairway-access exit and catch Bruce half-into the Bat-duds?
Then again at this point he knew it was a dream and had probably grabbed some control over his own perceptions. He could have imagined the cops wearing Marilyn Monroe dresses or Carmen Miranda fruit basket hats, if he'd wished....

Yeah I imagine that the animators did that on purpose. He changed outfits but they didn't bother to animate the process.
