-->'''Babs:''' Don’t you see? Clearly, someone is suffering from having their status quo upended by Diana’s arrival in Metropolis, and their crippling insecurity most likely caused by absentee parenting, and a lack of proper modeling in childhood, has unleashed a horrible ancient curse that has manifested itself in the form of some weird cat beast that’s now stalking the perceived enemy which is Diana!

* AlwaysSecondBest: Barbi is is smart, athletic and very popular but not nearly as much as Diana is. She doesn't take it well, to say the least.

* KnightOfCerebus: While Barbi might posses humorous quirks like most villains in the show, Cheetah has none. Her whole appearance plays out for the most part like a horror movie and she beats all heroes besides Wonder Woman ''with ease.''

Added DiffLines:

Envious of Diana's achievements, Barbi Ann Minerva decided to take drastic measures to get rid of her.

!!Tropes:
* TheAce: Diana, in full force. She's the best athlete in her class, loved by everyone and somehow [[BeyondTheImpossible manages to score 102% on a test.]]
* AlwaysSecondBest: Barbi is is smart, athletic and very popular but not nearly as much as Diana is. She doesn't take it well, to say the least.
* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: When Barbi refuses to share position of the gymnastic team captain with Diana, their coach agrees and makes ''only'' Diana the captain.
* ChekhovsSkill: Whole story starts with Diana proving to be a better athlete than Barbi. Fittingly, with their confrontation taking place in gym, she puts her skills and surrounding her equipment to good use.
* TheCuckoolanderWasRight: Batgirl's theory about Cheetah is oddly specific and based on nothing and yet, right on the money.
-->'''Babs:''' Don’t you see? Clearly, someone is suffering from having their status quo upended by Diana’s arrival in Metropolis, and their crippling insecurity most likely caused by absentee parenting, and a lack of proper modeling in childhood, has unleashed a horrible ancient curse that has manifested itself in the form of some weird cat beast that’s now stalking the perceived enemy which is Diana!
* DisproportionateRetribution: Because she upstaged her, Barbi plans to kill Diana. And ''violently'' as proven when she's picking her weapon.
-->'''Barbi:''' Too quick. Too humane.
* DudeNotFunny: After seeing destruction caused by Chetah, Kara's first reaction is to crack several jokes about it. Understandably, Jessica is not amused.
* FreudianExcuse: Babs guesses that villain they're dealing with is suffering from insecurities " caused by absentee parenting, and a lack of proper modeling in childhood."
* GreenEyedMonster: Cheetah is quite literally a monster created by Barbi's envy of Diana. For extra points, she has very prominent glowing green eyes.
* KnightOfCerebus: While Barbi might posses humorous quirks like most villains in the show, Cheetah has none. Her whole appearance plays out for the most part like a horror movie and she beats all heroes besides Wonder Woman ''with ease.''
* LetsSplitUpGang: Team splits to search the whole school for Cheetah. They end up taken down, one by one.
* OverlyLongScream: Once she gets fed up with Diana, Barbi lets out scream and drives off from school to her home and only stops screaming once she reaches her father's room.
* ShoutOut: Batgirl's tracking gear and confrontation with Cheetah are clearly based on Film/{{Alien}}.
