Synopsis

Superman tells Batman about the effect the distrust he brought into the JLA had on a recent case. The members split up to handle three emergencies and all met Dr. Destiny. When they realized that they faced Destiny’s dream self who had brought dream logic to the waking world, the Manhunter put them to sleep and as a team they forced Dr. Destiny to wake up and swap places with his dream self. Convinced, Batman summons the JLA and he and Superman greet them in their civilian guises to restore their trust. As the other JLAers with secret identities change to theirs, the Batman enters the cave.
