* ColorCodedSecretIdentity:
** Tim wears an open red button-up shirt one day, and a red sweater the next at school reflecting the red upper torso portion of his Robin suit.
** Tim is seen wrapped in a plush green robe once he's out of costume and warming up in the manor, to reflect the green pants, undershirt, mask and gloves of his costume.

* SpeakOfTheDevil: Bruce has been out of town for the whole storyline and just as Alfred reassures Tim that he dealt with everything well and B will be proud of him Bruce slips in through the door as though summoned by his name, startling them both.
* ToiletHumour: Joker ends up falling into a sewage treatment tank when Tim defeats him, but Tim's too tired to do more than think his predecessors probably would have been able to come up with a quip. Later at Arkham Riddler takes up the slack and makes a joke about how much Joker stinks that pisses Joker off and gets a laugh out of Two-Face to end the series with.

* ConvenientComa: Tim visits his father and talks to him, but notes he's never been able to be candid with his father before Jack ended up in a coma and he doesn't expect he'll ever be able to again if his father wakes up. He also notes his father is a lot easier to visit since he's in the city in a hospital room instead of flitting all over the planet and avoiding Gotham, and his son, like the plague. Despite these things Tim really does hope Jack recovers.

* CostumeEvolution: Tim's primary Robin costume (he has others for specified situations like extreme cold weather) was initially mostly green, with green pants, green gloves, a green mask and a red leotard with green sleeves, eventually it was decided to change his costume to the red and black one from ''WesternAnimation/BatmanTheAnimatedSeries'' and get rid of the green altogether despite green having been his associated color across the DCU up until that point. The change was given the in universe justification of being a reaction to his best friend Superboy's death, who had at the time of his death been wearing a black and red costume.
