The issue is split into two bits. The first is Nightwing having all of the fight with Azrael, going onto the bridge, into the river, onto a riverboat, and ending with Azrael escaping onto a train.

On the bridge, Batman (who anticipated the self-destruct) and Robin help to evacuate the bridge.

Azrael returns to the Batcave, patting himself on the back for his cleverness, until he discovers Batman waiting for him, in an echo of the shot of Bane confronting Batman.
