I figure that applies to when they get in trouble. I’m thinking about when the hammer finally comes down and they get disbarred or somesuch.

I’m pretty sure it’s .

**no brainers**  
Catwoman  
Riddler  
Penguin

**Pretty sure**  
Poison Ivy  
Mr. Freeze  
Two-Face

**One you’re probably not counting but I’m absolutely positive about**  
[King Tut](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0519516/?ref_=ttep_ep27)

* * *

OK, I did something silly before hitting “enter”. Checked IMDB and Wiikpedia. Looks like the actual list used from the series is

Catwoman  
Riddler  
Penguin  
Mr. Freeze  
King Tut

(per Wiki, they planned on Clint Eastwood as Two-Face, but the series got canceled.)

Shows how much I know. Typical 'Merican mouthing off about things he doesn’t know enough about!
