Answer: The mobile

The Joker held all his students, including Bruce Wayne, for ransom so Robin made way for the school in order to help out Bruce and the others. Bruce managed to untie the ropes which bound his hands and aided Robin in the fight against The Joker and his men.

However, Bruce and Robin were overpowered so The Joker felt that this was the perfect time to unveil his latest deathtrap. The episode concluded with Robin tied down to a device called "the mobile", which spun around while knives dangled above and closed in on Robin with each rotation.
