* IdiotBall: Harley Quinn has decided that [[WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer every solution involves a large squeaky mallet.]]

to:

* IdiotBall: Harley Quinn unfortunately has to carry it and the Incompetence Ball this episode. Since neither Poison Ivy, Livewire, Supergirl nor Batgirl really lend themselves to being PlayedForLaughs, the comedy onus is pretty much all on Harley. Consequently, she has decided that [[WhenAllYouHaveIsAHammer every solution involves a large squeaky mallet.]]

* ShootingSuperman: Rather, hitting Supergirl with a squeaky mallet. Harley attempts it, and the recoil whacks her in the face.

* ButtMonkey: Poor Harley gets it the worst in this ep since it mostly deals with super-powered villains and she lacks the fighting prowess of Batgirl. With few exceptions, her actions are useless (hitting things with a big squeaky mallet) or worse (washing the insulating dust off Livewire with a seltzer bottle and shorting out her electrical powers), leading to eyerolling and mockery from the other villains.

* BatmanGambit: Ivy got Supergirl with her vine seeds. When she throws another set at Batgirl, Supergirl blasts them with heat vision.
-->'''Poison Ivy:''' Thank you for being so predictable, Supergirl. You just released the most virulent, allergenic pollen in the flora kingdom. The reaction is quite deadly, as your playmate is finding out.
