Line #113 Funny/CrisisOnInfiniteEarths2019


1	[[foldercontrol]]
2	[[folder:Hour One (''Supergirl'')]]
3	* The intro to the Crisis ends on [[Series/Batman1966 Earth-66]] and an older Creator/BurtWard Dick Grayson who, while walking Ace the Bat-Hound, notices the red skies coming at him and exclaims as only he can, "Holy Crimson Skies of Death!"
4	* Sara and Ray are participating in a trivia contest at a Star City bar for free booze. Sara thinks they've won when the last contest question is about Music/JanisJoplin's (whom they briefly met in ''Legends'' Season 4) last song. Thanks to Ray's accidental tampering with time, they lose the contest.[[note]]Because, due to Janis [[BrickJoke seeing a shrunk Ray]], her last song went from being "Mercedes Benz" to being a song about seeing Ray, shrunk and wearing his power armour, called "Little Robot Man".[[/note]]
5	** At which point Harbinger teleports in, [[ScrewThisImOuttaHere the trivia night host takes that as his cue to leave]], and Sara ([[LockedOutOfTheLoop who, like the rest of the Legends, is out of the loop regarding the Crisis]]) goes "Lyla? What's with the suit?" before vanishing.
6	* Lois' joke about front-page news: Superman changing a diaper.
7	* Batwoman is upset she was yanked out just as she was getting one of "Alice's rabbits" to talk.
8	-->'''Brainy:''' This one speaks to rabbits...
9	** Possibly even funnier is the fact that, given his lack of context and the amount of craziness that goes on in the Multiverse, this is an ''entirely valid assumption!''
10	* After being brought to Earth-38, Batwoman punches Harbinger. Presumably due to her newfound powers, [[NoSell she doesn't even flinch]].
11	* When Kate reveals her identity, Oliver just says that it makes sense.
12	* Mia casually reveals herself to be Oliver's daughter, as if she didn't know what to say.
13	* When Harbinger vanishes with a white light, Kate mutters that she doesn't like her.
14	* Kate tells Kara that her sister murdered her step-mother and framed her father. Kara is visibly taken aback.
15	-->'''Kara:''' That's dark, even for Gotham.
16	* In the Bunker during 2046, Brainiac 5 gets snared by that period's Oliver Queen. Lois tries to set him free but then hears her baby's cries nearby and just leaves Brainy there on the floor still tied up.
17	[[/folder]]
18
19	[[folder:Hour Two (''Batwoman'')]]
20	* The Earth-1 Waverider can't be used because the other Legends (everyone but Sara, Ray, and later Constantine) are still on it and Sara promised the team [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall they'd never have to do another crossover]].
21	* They still need a Waverider, so Harbinger travels to Earth-74 where she meets that world's Mick Rory who, rather than retire with all the Legends of that Earth, took the Waverider...which had the AI replaced by an upload of [[Creator/WentworthMiller Leonard Snart.]]
22	-->'''Leonard:''' You're basically living out of your car.
23	** Harbinger offers Earth-74 Mick a chance to save the universe..."and have all the beer you can drink." Mick's oh so predictable response?
24	--->'''Earth-74 Mick:''' [[ComicallySmallBribe You had me at beer.]]
25	* The Monitor starts giving an impassioned speech about the seven Paragons and how they are key to saving the Multiverse. [[MoodWhiplash Only for Baby Jonathan to]] [[MomentKiller keep interrupting the speech with his crying.]]
26	* After a crying Jonathan is being passed along between Lois, Clark, and Kara, who finally calms the kid down? ''Earth-74 Mick'' who, instead of refusing the new charge like Kate did, [[CutenessProximity immediately warms up to the baby]], with one of the most [[WhenSheSmiles adorable smiles]] you'll ever see from someone like him. Cue a stunned look from everyone, especially when the baby immediately stops crying while Rory is holding him.
27	* Upon being informed that Lex is alive and killing various Supermen, Clark and Lois decide they need to find the Superman of the Earth they are currently on in order to protect him. Only problem? [[RefugeInAudacity The Earth they arrived on]] [[ComicBook/TheDeathOfSuperman already had their Superman die.]] For bonus points, Earth-75 Lois & Clark are played by the same actors as Earth-38 Lois and Clark.
28	* Iris, Lois, and Clark arrive on [[{{Series/Smallville}} Earth-167]] where Creator/TomWelling's Clark Kent is doing farm work. When Iris asks if that's him:
29	-->'''Lois:''' Either that or the [[EatingTheEyeCandy buff guy on the paper towels]]. ''[Earth-38's Clark looks over at her while she only shrugs sheepishly]''
30	** Given Earth-167 Clark's outfit, he does indeed look like the Brawny paper towel guy!
31	** Iris can't hide that she feels some attraction to that version of Clark.
32	** When he notices that Earth-167 Clark is using an axe to chop wood, Earth-38 Clark notes he could do it with one hand. He says it in confusion, curious as to why the local Clark has to make such an effort, but his wife looks to him like he's trying to make himself look more impressive than the super-buff Earth-167 Clark.
33	** When the group tells Earth-167 Clark that Earth-38 Lex is out to kill him, Clark remarks, "Didn't know the President was in town." The idea of ''[[MythologyGag President Lex Luthor]]'' leaves Lois and Clark baffled.
34	* Earth-167 Clark sizes up Earth-38 Lex...[[PretenderDiss and states he isn't Lex Luthor]]. If one recalls all the plots and plans Earth-167 Lex used, comparatively speaking Earth-167 Clark's right on the money.
35	** Earth-167 Clark's [[SeenItAll resigned face]] clearly shows who's the "smarter one" in their conversation. Earth-38 Lex doesn't know what's going to happen to him.
36	** What's more, Earth-38 Lex decides to kill Earth-167 Clark by busting out Kryptonite...[[FailedAttemptAtDrama and Earth-167 Clark just]] [[NoSell takes his piece and chucks it away]].
37	** In a testament to his colossal case of tunnel vision, Earth-38 Lex assumes that Superman is only Clark Kent on Earth-167. [[LockedOutOfTheLoop "Where I come from, that would be ridiculous. He can't see past his glasses."]] [[SecretIdentity Earth-167 Clark]] just stands there and takes all this in, looking amused.
38	** It turns out that Earth-167 Clark gave up his powers so he could settle down and have kids. This sends Earth-38 Lex straight into another rant, much to Earth-167 Clark's annoyance.
39	--->'''Earth-167 Clark:''' ''[rolls his eyes]'' Can't say I missed these chats.
40	** When Earth-38 Lex finally snaps and tries to punch him, [[BroughtDownToBadass Earth-167 Clark catches the punch and decks him]].
41	--->'''Earth-167 Clark:''' (sounding curious) Still stronger.
42	** After Earth-38 Lex leaves, Earth-167 Lois comes up, asking what happened. Earth-167 Clark tells her matter-of-factly, "Lex Luthor from another Earth. Apparently, the multiverse is ending." Earth-167 Lois laughs and says that "Smallville's" finally making a joke, only took him a decade.
43	*** Clark gets a look like he wants to correct her and insist he was actually serious, but decides to let it go.
44	* Earth-74 Mick [[HarmfulToMinors decides to read Jonathan one of his books as a bedtime story]] while Ray works on a machine that will locate the other Paragons. The discomfort on Ray's face is hilarious.
45	* When Lois, Clark, and Iris first bump into Earth-96 Clark, Lois [[HeldGaze locks eyes with him for a while]], before Earth-38 Clark has to loudly clear his throat to get everyone's attention. (Then again, considering that this is the second time he gets to meet a Superman who is both taller and buffer than him[[note]]Tyler Hoechlin is muscular, but not [[HeroicBuild a massive guy]] like Brandon Routh or Tom Welling[[/note]], he definitely wants to assert dominance by now).
46	* [[Film/SupermanReturns Earth-96]] Clark [[ActorAllusion doesn't know who Ray Palmer is]].
47	** He also acknowledges [[Film/SupermanIII this isn't the first time he's fought himself]]. Considering that ''Film/SupermanReturns'' was [[{{Unreboot}} supposed to have ignored that film]]...
48	* How does Lois stop Lex from going any further? She ''whacks him over the back of the head with the ear piece of what appears to be a corded phone.'' It works.
49	* "[[ARareSentence Never thought I'd say this]], but I'm tired of killing Superman."
50	* Earth-38 Lex, with the all-powerful Book of Destiny, basks in the sight of two Supermen fighting each other...and all it took to defeat him was a broom to the head wielded by Earth-38 Lois.
51	* Later, Kara is impressed at how buff "Ray" is, not realizing that he's actually an alternate version of her cousin Clark. It's [[SurpriseIncest awkward for a moment]]...
52	** Earth-38 Clark's uncomfortable expression as he points that out to Kara is hysterical.
53	* Kara and Harbinger call out the Monitor for his coldly amoral approach to solving the Crisis, to which Lex chimes in "I think he's kinda neat."
54	** In the same scene, the Monitor reveals that Lex's quest to kill all Supermen was part of the plan to locate the correct paragon: Earth-96 Superman. The funny part is Lex's response by doing a curtsy with his suit jacket that oozes with a sarcastic "You're welcome; no need to thank me."
55	* After Sara and Mia secure the Earth-18 Lazarus Pit, [[CrossesTheLineTwice Barry and Constantine arrive, dragging in Oliver's corpse]].
56	[[/folder]]
57
58	[[folder:Hour Three (''The Flash'')]]
59	* Constantine says he "knows a guy" on an Earth that can help get Oliver's soul. That guy? None other than ''[[Series/Lucifer2016 Lucifer Morningstar]]''.
60	-->'''Lucifer:''' ''[[IncomingHam Johnny!]]'' I'd like to say it's a pleasure to see you on my Earth, outside my club; [[BaitAndSwitchComment it's not]].
61	** His Earth is numbered [[NumberOfTheBeast 666]].
62	** He pulls the old "deepest desire" trick on Mia who confesses she wants her father back.
63	--->'''Lucifer:''' Oh, daddy issues? Why didn't you say so?
64	** The fact Lucifer is just brushing off the end of reality as a distraction from his partying.
65	--->'''Lucifer:''' A soul retrieval, BlahBlahBlah, the worlds are ending. It's all very Biblical, John.
66	** Lucifer sizes up Diggle.
67	--->'''Lucifer:''' You remind me of my brother, by the way. Tall, dark, annoyed by me...
68	** Lucifer spending the entire meeting flirting with Mia ''and'' Diggle, to Constantine's annoyance. Evidently, he and Lucifer have [[NoodleIncident a history]].
69	** Constantine uses the same nickname for Lucifer that Amenadiel does. "Luci" retaliates by pronouncing Constantine the same way it's said in the comics.
70	--->'''Constantine:''' ''(forced laugh)'' "Con-stan-''[[PronouncingMyNameForYou teen]]''".\
71	'''Lucifer:''' [[{{Troll}} Is it? I don't care.]]
72	* Caitlin asks the others to excuse Ralph's naivety, [[LeaningOnTheFourthWall because this is his first crossover]]. What's even funnier is that this isn't even Ralph's first; that would be ''{{Series/Elseworlds\|2018}}'', although he doesn't meet anyone outside of ''The Flash's'' cast besides Oliver.
73	* Earth-38 Lex surviving the antimatter wave isn't funny, but rather how he did was: A Sharpie. [[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer For real.]] All Lex needed was ''a felt-tip pen'' to scribble his name on a torn page from the Book of Destiny, ''just so'' he can get one over on ''[[ComicBook/KingdomCome a]]'' Superman. "The pen is mightier than the sword," indeed.
74	** And he immediately admits he had no idea if it would actually work.
75	[[/folder]]
76
77	[[folder:Hour Four (''Arrow'')]]
78
79	* At the start of the episode, as Mar Novu begins his experiment, he complains that the safety gear his wife made him looks ''ridiculous''.
80	* Kara, Ryan, and Lex spring out of the Speed Force and land on Maltus. Kara manages to grab Ryan so he can land safely. As for Lex, he hits the ground several times on impact. And he "thanks" Kara for that.
81	** Shortly after Ryan comes up with an idea on how to find Mar Novu, Kara looks back to Lex, only to see [[StealthHiBye he's disappeared]]. Her only reaction is [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe exasperation]].
82	** What's even funnier is that this disappearance was a case of FailedASpotCheck. With Kara's and Ryan's attention turned towards a Maltusian city, [[FunnyBackgroundEvent you can clearly see them just leaving Luthor behind]]. Clearly he took advantage of their tunnel vision.
83	* Barry Allen of Earth-1, meet Barry Allen of the Franchise/DCExtendedUniverse. Poor DCEU Barry is confused at the sight of the other Barry and vice versa before they both geek out over their costumes.
84	** DCEU Barry assumes Earth-1 Barry is just cosplaying as him and offers to do a selfie, to which Earth-1 Barry says that he's also the Flash. DCEU Barry is confused by that name, revealing that, even after appearing [[Film/BatmanVSupermanDawnOfJustice in]] [[Film/SuicideSquad2016 three]] [[Film/JusticeLeague2017 films]][[note]]Technically Four since a majority of ''Film/ZackSnydersJusticeLeague'' was filmed in 2017[[/note]], ''he still hadn't named himself!''
85	** Seconds before disappearing, DCEU Barry mutters "I ''told'' [[ComicBook/{{Cyborg}} Victor]] this was possible..." [[SkewedPriorities It says a lot that he was more concerned with being proven right than his impending disappearance from the multiverse.]]
86	* In the Paragons' fight against the Shadow Demons, every one of them is fighting. Most of them have some level of combat experience, even Lex Luthor who can fire blasts from his hands...and then there is Ryan, the new guy, who is just wildly swinging his fists around and running at them, clearly having no idea what he is doing.
87	-->'''Ryan Choi:''' Die, you freaky shadow things!
88	[[/folder]]
89
90	[[folder:Hour Five (''Legends of Tomorrow'')]]
91	* The first thing we see of the reboot? Kara waking up with bed hair and her glasses askew.
92	* As a result of the reboot, Lex Luthor is basically ''[[VillainWithGoodPublicity the most popular man in the country]]'' and constantly getting awards.
93	* Although it's another clue of the merged universes, when Supergirl shows up to stop Weather Witch, the latter is borderline insulted when Supergirl [[RememberTheNewGuy doesn't know who she is]].
94	** This is later compounded by Barry showing up to punch her away, explaining she's "one of [his]"...before both Barry and Supergirl wonder why each other is on "their" Earth.
95	* Ray's reaction to the memories of the multiverse, including "there's a Super-me?" complete with putting his fists on his hips.
96	* The computers at the Bunker detect something attacking the city. Something that, as Diggle puts it, [[MakesJustAsMuchSenseInContext they wouldn't believe if he told them]]. Cut to the city, as a crowd of people run in terror...[[{{Bathos}} from a Godzilla-sized Beebo]].
97	** Team Arrow reacting to the most ''Legends'' situation possible. Sara wonders how Beebo is rampaging through Star City. As if reflecting fans who didn't watch ''Legends of Tomorrow'', Rene tells her that it would be better to ask ''why'' Beebo is rampaging through the city. [[FunnyBackgroundEvent Barry nods his agreement in the background.]] Meanwhile, Dinah has to double-ask Sara if this is really happening, and even after being reassured that it is, she doesn't seem entirely convinced.
98	** Sara says that [[Recap/LegendsOfTomorrowS3E18TheGoodTheBadAndTheCuddly this isn't the first time a giant Beebo is roaming about]], but says that ItsALongStory. Barry remembers that Wally told him how [[ContinuityLockout the Legends used totems to summon Beebo in order to fight a time demon]].
99	---> '''Sara:''' I guess it's not a long story.
100	** The whole scene is topped by some wise words from Diggle.
101	--->'''Dinah''': Is this actually happening?
102	--->'''Rene''': Is this what all crossovers are like?
103	--->'''Sara''': Yes and not exactly.
104	--->'''Diggle:''' I'm never letting my child watch that show again.
105	* When Sara tells Ava and Nate that she's been busy saving the multiverse, the two of them immediately gripe about her getting sucked into another crossover and complain that as soon as the team asks to be left out, the other heroes start kidnapping people. What's even better is that Ava agrees with Nate wholeheartedly despite having only been with the team officially for one year and having never gone through a crossover with them--guess the Legends filled her in on how wild things get.
106	** While Sara made the call, the others continue [[FunnyBackgroundEvent to look confused and in awe at Beebo on the screen]].
107	* As it turns out, Ray and Sara's trivia night was a secret to the rest of the team; [[LockedOutOfTheLoop Nate thought they went on a mission]].
108	* Why is Mick in Star City? He's doing a Rebecca Silver book signing...which gets interrupted by Beebo.
109	** When one of his fans asks if she should call him Rebecca or Mick, he is all too happy for her to call him "Rebecca"...and even signs her book as such!
110	** Mick then gets involved with the Beebo fight because the furball interrupted his book signing.
111	* Barry's incredulous look while staring down the rampaging Beebo, asking the others what they're supposed to do with something like this.
112	* What does Ray do when he, Kara, and Barry confront Beebo? Take a [[SkewedPriorities selfie]]. And Barry and Kara whirl around just in time for the shot. And [[FreezeFrameBonus timed just right]], it looked like Beebo was posing for the shot as well.
113	* Kate arrives on the scene, prompting a bit of a squee-style reaction from Kara before Barry, of all people, shoots her a look and she gets serious again. Kate's reaction to Beebo? "I don't think the rules apply to a 50-foot tall talking plush toy?" The music even turns from dramatic to comical sounding to underline the sheer tonal dissonance. As Beebo walks past her, Kate mutters "It's...unnatural."
114	** The heroes on the ground (Barry, Kara, Ray and Mick) try to trip Beebo by snaring his legs. It doesn't work because they learn too late that this Beebo is a BlobMonster. The snare gets snagged and causes them to stumble. Barry in particular makes an embarrassing fall.
115	* Kara's indignance when Sara suggests that this Beebo might be an alien.
116	* Turns out the giant Beebo was conjured up by a hammy magic villain calling himself "Sargon the Sorcerer" ([[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sargon_the_Sorcerer who is in fact an actual DC character]]), who used Beebo as a distraction while he robbed a bank so he could go buy a time share in Bogota. Barry and Sara promptly stop him, the former admonishing him: "Come on, man. Beebo? IsNothingSacred" and the latter informing him that "Beebo is off limits" before knocking him out. The giant Beebo promptly dissolves into a puddle of blue goop, and given Kara's reaction, the goop apparently smells awful.
117	** Also, it's Mick who puts it together, saying "I know what I'd do" in a situation like this.
118	* The ''Legends'' writers get revenge for being left out of last year's crossover by spending a good ten minutes shanghaiing all the other heroes into one of their episodes, getting a taste of the kind of craziness the Legends get into all the time.
119	* Sara dubs Ray, Ryan and Nash the "nerd team."
120	* After Barry assembles the device capable of [[AndIMustScream shrinking things indefinitely]], he moves his hand to point out the button to activate it. Cue [[OhCrap a panicked reaction]] [[RapidFireNo and protest]] from Nash, Ryan, and Ray, prompting Barry to respond in [[ScreamsLikeALittleGirl the highest falsetto he has ever mustered]].
121	--> '''Barry:''' Okay, okay, relax!
122	* After defeating the Anti-Monitor, the heroes are about to celebrate...until Kara tries to find Superman. He shows up in front of her shrunk, since Ray had to shrink him earlier to help him escape the Anti-Monitor's grip, and almost forgot all about it!
123	** Superman even waves his arms to get his cousin's attention. It's adorable.
124	* Though it's probably not meant as such, Kara, Barry, and Sara all make speeches to Oliver's suit in memory of him. Jefferson adds that Oliver was "a good guy," and Barry gives a little head-waggle as if to say, "Yeah, bit of an understatement, dude."
125	* Just as it looks as if everyone is settling into this new world, Superman gets a phone call from Lois talking about "the boys" in trouble. When Superman asks "the boys?" Lois (who doesn't remember their previous reality in which they only had one) replies "Yes, Clark, our ''sons''?" The look on the Man of Steel's face at suddenly having more than one kid is priceless.
126	* Jefferson questions if they need a headquarters since it's not like the the world is in danger on a regular basis.
127	-->'''Jefferson:''' I mean, how often does the world almost come to an end?
128	-->''[Awkward silence from everyone]''
129	-->'''Jefferson:''' [[OhCrap Oh]]. [[ThisIsGonnaSuck It's like]] ''[[TheWorldIsAlwaysDoomed that...]]''
130	-->'''Kate:''' Don't worry; I was the new kid [[Series/{{Elseworlds2018}} last year]].
131	** He also questions why they're in a "condemned building". For clarification, this is the old STAR Labs warehouse the heroes used during ''[[Series/Invasion2016 Invasion!]]'' and since then, it's evident Team Flash forgot about upkeep; water's all over the floor and the place looks rather run-down.
132	** Meanwhile, Barry is absolutely giddy while showing the place off.
133	** The chairs surrounding the round table resemble those used by video gamers. Knowing [[EndearinglyDorky Barry and especially Cisco]], the idea is they basically ''are'' gamer chairs.
134	* After the badass moment where Barry reveals the conference table and the assembled heroes sit down, we hear something breaking and what sounds like a monkey chattering around in the ceiling. Sara comments, "Sounds like we need to call pest control." Barry asks, "What was that?" We then see an empty animal cage, the door swinging open. The name of the animal? ''[[WesternAnimation/SuperFriends Gleek]]''. As if to drive the point home, a rendition of the ''Super Friends'' theme plays in the background, while the camera shows the outside of the warehouse, which of course looks just like the Hall of Justice from the same show. All that's missing is Creator/TedKnight delivering his classic line "Meanwhile...!".
135	** Kara's excited response to seeing what's under the blanket is hilarious and adorable if you recall she has x-ray vision and could have seen what was under the blanket whenever she wanted.
136	** The WhamShot of Gleek's cage may remind fans of a FreezeFrameBonus back in ''The Flash'' Season 1 establishing the existence of Grodd. Just using the same technique for two vastly-different characters may cause a little whiplash.
137	** As the Fridge page points out, since Barry didn't know about it, the cage must've been put there by S.T.A.R. Labs' [[Characters/ArrowverseEobardThawne previous owner]]. Think about that for a second.
