While not perfect this episode certainly has some of the strongest scenes in all of the Batman Beyond series.
The themes of press ethics and future technology is thoughtprovoking, and the reporter, Ian Peek, who uses it to gather material for his show "The Inside Peek" is brilliantly voiced by Michael McKean. How he got this technology to expose other people's hidden secrets is dark and connects Bruce and him in tense scenes. Terry also has some good moments with Peek.
But I'd have liked a little more explanation on how the technology functioned practically, because all the knowledge we're fed about molecules vibrating to make theme go through solid material was exciting, but didn't explain how his hands still remained solid when holding the camera or punching others.
Aside from that, we get a pretty gruesome fate of Peek that'll make you feel sorry for him. The episode ends a little abruptly, I must say, and on a rather grim note from Bruce. Exciting episode, but lacked that tiny touch to make it perfect.
