Added DiffLines:

* {{Hypocrite}}: Nightwing and Batgirl make a big deal to Harley about how [[ThouShaltNotKill they never kill under any circumstances]] no matter who that person is and what they've done. Then a few minutes later decide rather quickly without considering any other options that Ivy's too powerful and they net to make an exception to their rule.


Added DiffLines:

* WellDoneSonGuy: When Ivy tells Nightwing Bruce is never gonna say he loves him, [[MoreInsultingThanIntended unaware of the full nature of their relationship]]. He looks away implying she touched a nerve.

* SupermanStaysOutOfGotham: Literally that, along with all the rest of the Justice League; unlike the previous monster plants/trees rampage in Season 1 that brought them over immediately, none show up today. After everything they've been put through in Gotham previously, it's understandable they'd all rather steer clear of Batman's madhouse city.

* CuffsOffRubWrists: Clayface does this after Batgirl unties the crew. Never mind that he could have easily escaped any time he wanted.

* FriendlyZombie: Bizarrely, Bruce's parents are the only zombies to be revived without a desire to vomit on everyone in sight and dutifully follow Bruce around. Though Zombie-Thomas does start eating one of Bruce's cats when King Shark needs to make the point that Bruce has perhaps gone too far.

to:

* FreudianExcuseIsNoExcuse: Played with. King Shark takes issue with Bruce's unresolved trauma with his parents driving his actions not because he doesn't think it's a valid excuse in itself, but because Bruce has been holding onto that trauma for ''decades'' and really should be further along by now.

** Ivy brings up her thing about kitten heels again. And she mentioned before that "Mama Macaroni's" is her favorite restaurant, so the apocalypse not touching the place tips off Harley.

* ShrugTake: Swamp Thing appears to Ivy in the Green and tries to talk her down from her supervillainy. When she refuses, his reaction is basically "Oh well".
-->'''Swamp Thing:''' Oh, boy. I biffed that speech.

-->'''King Shark:''' Okay. Now I am judging. It feels like you should be much further along than this. I mean, you're obsessed about the past and missing out on the present and also starting a zombie apocalypse.

Too outlandish a situation to qualify


* NoSell: King Shark marches through a horde of zombies and his only complaint is that their clawing "tickles".



* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: Nightwing's shock batons look cool and effective against human opponents, but are useless against plant-based zombies, especially when striking them just gets insulating goo over the electrified ends.

* {{Bathos}}: Bruce and King Shark have a heart to heart about the loss of their parents, and how they can move on with their lives afterward... while the zombified Thomas an Martha follow them around and eat cats.

Added DiffLines:

* NiceJobBreakingItHero: Bruce intended to merely raise his parents from the dead, but rather than do so under controlled conditions (morbid though it may be, digging them up and performing the experiment in his lab would have been the proper course of action), he just stuck Frank into the ground near their graves and pumped the modified Eden serum into the root system, resurrecting every corpse in Gotham.
* PetTheDog: King Shark offers to kill Bruce's zombie parents so he won't have to deal with that trauma, even advising him to cover his eyes and ears so he won't witness the deed.
