"What an Idiot" is now Flame Bait.


* {{Squick}}: The painting is the result of the Joker gutting some poor soul, then throwing gore and viscera at a canvas. Worse, Ryan ''touches'' the (mercifully dry) painting to get a sample for analysis.
* WhatAnIdiot: Evan Blake refuses to cooperate with Jacob and Sophie when it comes to retrieving the Napier painting, even though he shares their goal of finding Kate. His solution is to steal the painting while it's on display (instead of taking it from storage or in transit), leading to a fight with Batwoman and the Crows and his own severe injury when a Crow gets too aggressive in stopping him, all of which would have been avoided if he'd worked with the heroes in the first place.

* {{Anvilicious}}: The episode's parallels with real world cases of PoliceBrutality are not at all subtle.



* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped: The episode's parallels with real world cases of PoliceBrutality are not at all subtle (even if its a bit of a BrokenAesop), but given the scope and importance of the issue, addressing it subtlety would likely dilute the message.

* {{Narm}}: Wolf Spider drops from the ceiling into the gallery and swipes the Napier painting in front of literally everyone at the event, a process that takes several seconds. It's rather comical to watch everybody just stand there staring at him with nobody even trying to stop him the entire time. It isn't until after it isn't until after he actually takes the painting from it's canvas that the security start shooting.

* InformedWrongness: After the Pike's suicide by CyanidePill, Ryan says "Kane pushed him too far", clearly feeling that Jacob's JackBauerInterrogationTechnique led to what happened. However, the Pike only killed himself after accidentally letting slip that the painting was connected to Coryana, which he would likely have done if he'd said it under ''any'' circumstances, making the comment come off as confirmation bias on Ryan's part.

Added DiffLines:

* CrossesTheLineTwice: The Joker's idea of modern art was to throw human guts at a canvas. His name for the resulting "artwork"? "Let It Out", another way of saying "spill your guts".
