Go To

It's the first snowfall of the season, which means it's officially snowball fight time!

Tropes:

  • Attack! Attack... Retreat! Retreat!: Tim and Dick go to track down Bruce and yell that he should come out now because there's nowhere to run. When they see the Thrasher, they immediately head for the hills.
  • Dusting Off Your Hands: After he and Bruce whoop the kids in the first snowball fight of the season, Alfred dusts the snow off his hands before going inside to make hot chocolate for all the combatants.
  • Kids Versus Adults: Downplayed; most of the Bat-kids are young adults or teenagers, but the snowball fight is still plotted with the middle-aged Bruce and older Alfred against the younger members of the family.
  • Mundane Utility: The episode ends with Bruce breaking out the Thrasher suit so that he can win the snowball fight.
  • Serious Business: Snowball fights are taken quite seriously in the Wayne house, being plotted with military precision and fought with Bat-level technology like drones and Powered Armor.
  • Slasher Smile: Alfred busts out an evil grin when he ambushes the kids with some snowballs.
  • Snowball Fight: The premise of the episode, consisting of the Kids vs. Bruce and Alfred. Alfred and Bruce win, with Alfred providing covering fire and Bruce pulling out set of Powered Armor to defeat everyone.
  • Tempting Fate: Dick and Tim chase after Bruce when he runs into the woods, calling that there's nowhere to run and he should just give up now. That's when they see that he's broken out the Thrasher Batsuit to wallop them with far larger amounts of snow than a human can throw.
