* [[DropTheHammer Lois holding up her hammer defensively]] after Barry and Oliver pop into the Kent barn from Earth-1, even after Clark and Kara super-speed in to confront the possible danger. She keeps it raised for much of Barry and Oliver's exposition before finally lowering it.

No meta moment.


* {{Meta}} funny: Gotham City is a WretchedHive, but because it's filmed in Chicago, the streets and alleys are clean. All the tagging, debris, and garbage are ''inside'' the buildings.



* In a {{meta}} example, the episode of ''Series/LegendsOfTomorrow'' that aired right after this portion of the crossover reveals why the Legends aren't part of this event: They got distress calls from Barry, Oliver, and Kara, but were too busy [[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS4E8LegendsOfToMeowMeow having their own reality totally rewritten]] to answer any of them.
** In particular, the "Custodians of Chronology" timeline has them ''blatantly'' blow it off, with Nate mockingly asking [[JokeAndReceive if this time Barry and Oliver switched costumes]].

Added DiffLines:

** When Oliver turns so Barry can remove the arrows, Barry ''takes a photo with his phone.'' Oliver's high-pitched "WHAT!?" Priceless. FridgeBrilliance reminds us that Oliver now has a HealingFactor and would be fine no matter how many photos he took. Plus, the timing on Barry's line "BOOM! I got it. Don't worry," makes it sound like he's reassuring Oliver "[[SkewedPriorities Don't worry, I got the photo]]" rather than "Don't worry, I'll get the arrows out."

for some reason, this is what I remember about that shot.


* When Ollie demonstrates that he has Barry's powers to Kara, he does it by imitating Reverse-Flash's [[SignatureMove vibrating-hand]].

to:

* When Ollie demonstrates that he has Barry's powers ** Barry says "We come in peace." He, with the muscle memory of a trained warrior, and Oliver, who is connected to Kara, he does it by imitating Reverse-Flash's [[SignatureMove vibrating-hand]].the Speedforce, appear genuinely afraid of this ordinary journalist with an ordinary nail-hammering hammer.


Added DiffLines:

* When Ollie demonstrates that he has Barry's powers to Kara, he does it by imitating Reverse-Flash's [[SignatureMove vibrating-hand]]. The irritation on his face is palpable.
* The simple fact that Clark's first introduction to Green Arrow and the Flash are Barry and Oliver respectively.

AMAZO, THIS IS THE BEST PART OF HOUR ONE.

Added DiffLines:

* For the fight against Amazo and subsequent fights, Barry is clearly having [[AscendedFanboy way too much fun as Green Arrow]]. He imitates Oliver's gravelly Green Arrow voice and bluntly orders Oliver and Cisco around. ("Now bring me that virus, Cisco.")
** Special mention goes to Amazo's defeat: Kara and Clark have Amazo pinned and Oliver is un-phasing him. Oliver ''yells'' "HURRY UP!" but Barry ''still'' thinks he has time for ''this:''

** Even better: it works!
** Earlier, Cisco called "Barry" out for stealing Oliver's catchphrase. Now, "Oliver" has stolen it back.

'''Barry:''' Te- I'm not doing this. This isn't how I trained.
'''Oliver:''' (Mocking) Oh, you-oh, you trained? Really? I thought-I thought your powers just ''dropped'' out of the sky.
'''Barry:''' If you're trying to get a rise out of me, it's not gonna work.
'''Oliver:''' You need a peanut gallery? Can you not do anything without your ''wife'' in your ear?
'''Barry:''' [[HypocriticalHumor Are you serious]], man? [[NotSoDifferentRemark Felicity'' ''invented'' quarterbacking.
'''Oliver:''' (suddenly deadly serious) I don't think that [[LampshadeHanging you can go more than]] ''nine hours'' [[AscendedMeme without some SAPPY motivational speech]]!
'''Barry:''' Alright, uh, I'm not doin' this. (Turns to walk away)
'''Oliver:''' Your team ''betrayed'' you. You needed them, and THEY WEREN'T THERE!!
'''Barry:''' I'm not doin' this! (Oliver speeds towards him. Barry responds by ''bending over'' and making Oliver trip over him, knocking Oliver flat on his back.)
