Recap / Batman Wayne Family Adventures Episode 97 Wonderful

Go To

Wonder Woman (aka Diana Prince) is visiting Wayne Manor to discuss an upcoming Justice League mission with Bruce. However, she quickly gets...distracted.

Tropes:

  • Animal Lover: Diana and Damian are tied for who loves animals the most. She even thinks that Goliath (a dragon/bat hybrid) is cute. note 
  • The Bus Came Back: Bat-Cow and Alfred the cat make their first reappearance in over fifty episodes. Titus also returns after a long disappearance, now a full-grown dog.
  • Cuteness Proximity: Diana seeing any animal, from a cat to a dragon-bat, will result in cooing, compliments, and petting the animal in question. By the end, she's got the entire menagerie around her.
  • A Day in the Limelight: This is the first episode where Wonder Woman has a main role.
  • Heroes Love Dogs: Diana has to see the Bat-Family's dogs as soon as she hears them barking, and she gets down on her knees to pet and coo over them. Bruce agrees that they're very good boys.
  • Know When to Fold 'Em: After spending most of the episode trying to get Diana to focus on the task at hand, Bruce decides they'll just take a break when she starts petting Goliath.
  • Meaningful Name: Damian's huge dragon/bat hybrid is named Goliath, which could be a reference either to the Gentle Giant hero of Gargoyles or to the giant from the Bible.
  • Precious Puppy: Diana completely loses it when she meets Ace and Titus (even though they're fully grown), petting them while calling them "darlings" and "the best boys."
  • Puppy-Dog Eyes: Diana, of all people, puts pleading eyes on when Bruce tries to dissuade her from meeting Bat-Cow. Bonus points is that she has actual dogs, Ace and Titus, draped over her when she does them.
  • Squee: Diana gushes when she meets any animal, and when Goliath swoops down to say hello, she hugs him with a squeal of glee (depicted in chibi art style).
  • Wing Ding Eyes: Diana gets hearts in her eyes when she sees Goliath.
