SYNOPIS:
_{Harley Quinn is a private investigator who attempts to solve a missing persons crime, with a unique twist}

_{A black-and-white photograph fades into a building - a building with windows, outside and inside, emblazoned with "HQPI." Harley Quinn narrates in the classic noir style as, taking the role of a private eye, she agrees to help Catwoman find her cat, Velma.}

_{Another photo sees her talking to Batgirl (as a beat cop), but gets nowhere, especially after bringing up "the catnip trade." The next setting is a greenhouse, where having acquired a photo of Velma at some point, she asks Poison Ivy, who shows distaste for cats in general, thanks to what they tend to do to her plants.}

_{However, she is unrelated to Velma's disappearance. Harley's last shot is to stake out Velma's alley. Seemingly without even thinking about it, she takes out a can of tuna and finds a cat rubbing up against her, then stealing it and running through a fence with his prize... where Harley, catching up, finds him sharing it with Velma on the other side.}

_{She relates this to Catwoman, and refuses to tell her where she is - only that she told her she's looking for her, and that she seems to have settled down with the other cat, whoever he is, giving her a pile of black-and-white photographs showing Velma, her new boyfriend, and a kitten between them. Harley also mentions that Velma wanted her to give her something, and reveals another kitten under her hat. Catwoman names her "Velma, Jr." and walks off.}

_{Harley, sitting at her typewriter, finishes her story: "She turned around on her padded heels and walked off. I never saw her, or Velma again. The end." Then she turns to the camera, declaring that "Anyone can write this stuff!" Catwoman, leaning into her window, expresses her disagreement.}
