* BalkingSummonedSpirit: In "Rescue and Search" Zatanna summons Klarion to try to force him to [[spoiler: release Connor from the Phantom Zone]]. This immediately backfires as he disregards their request and [[EvilIsNotAToy attempts to kill them for daring to summon him.]] Zatanna then casts another spell, magically demanding Klarion honor his debt to her for helping him earlier in the season--which he reluctantly complies with by leaving without killing them.

* LoopholeAbuse: Even though Klarion is bound to fulfill his debt to Zatanna, he gets to choose what form that boon takes. He picks 'not killing her and her friends for disturbing him', seemingly putting them right back where they started.

Complicating things is that they are Kandorians in the comics and it is unknown if Kandor was shrunk and stolen by Brainiac in this timeline or, if it was, the rest of Krypton knew its residents survived being abducted.

* BatDeduction: Upon viewing Raquel's memories about New Genesis, Dick finally puts together that Bart's disappearance is connected to Conner's own. Raquel and Artemis [[DiscussedTrope claim]] that Dick is falling into a bunch of hunches. [[SubvertedTrope However]], in addition to the earlier investigation with Zatanna, Dick's [[TheSummation summation]] of the events ultimately lines up with a workable theory for the team to go with.

** Bart tries to use his SuperSpeed to place a PowerLimiter on Lor-Zod, whose eyes follow him before zapping the collars with heat vision. This is a reference to ''Film/JusticeLeague'', where Superman did much the same thing when the Flash attempted to speed around him, though Flash was fast enough to avoid Superman's punches.

* InstantRunes: Zatanna's spell to summon Klarion causes a complex spell circle to manifest on the floor, which then raises into the air and opens into a portal that links directly to Klarion.


Added DiffLines:

* SidetrackedByTheAnalogy: Zatanna explains to Clark that she's set up a glamour so that anyone who happens to overhear their conversation will think they're talking about the local baseball game. Clark is briefly sidetracked by who he favors in that game before she gets him back to the main topic.


Added DiffLines:

* SummonBiggerFish: When Klarion refuses to honor his debt out of gratitude and attacks the team for having the gall to summon him in the first place, Zatanna invokes the Holy Balance so the other Lords of Chaos will make him comply.


Added DiffLines:

* TheWallsAreClosingIn: Klarion retaliates against Rocket's force bubble by trapping her in a bubble and then slowly compressing it.

** Regarding said security footage, Zatanna mentions that it exists because Bibbo installed security cameras at his establishment following the incident where he was abducted and replaced by a Krolotean, as seen in [[Recap/YoungJusticeS2E1HappyNewYear "Happy New Year!"]]

* ItOnlyWorksOnce: Zatanna reasons that Klarion won't risk being trapped in the Tower of Fate again, but not only does he enter of his own free will, he isn't affected by its TeleportInterdiction as he was previously.



* OnceMoreWithClarity: The ColdOpen reveals further detail of Lor-Zod and Ma'alefa'ak's escape. When Saturn Girl, Chameleon Boy, and Kid Flash are knocked out in trying to subdue them, the duo convince Bio-Ship to stand down and carry them out if she wants the three to live.

* ThatLiarLies: Ursa when Conner states that Krypton exploded over forty years ago. Unusually for this trope, he's telling the truth. Dru-Zod is more open to believing it, especially since Conner knows details that would, at the very least, be pretty difficult for him to make up on the fly.
