5
6!!Tropes
7* ActuallyPrettyFunny: Despite the mood being killed, Catwoman finds Batman’s reaction to the situation hilarious.
8* BrainBleach: Spoiler, Red Hood, and Red Robin are visibly horrified at overhearing Batman's flirting.
9* ChildrenAreInnocent: Damian doesn't understand why his siblings are all freaking out. [[InnocentInaccurate Wasn't Batman simply trying to arrest Catwoman?]]
10* DisabilityImmunity: Damian's lack of social skills works in his favor for once, keeping him from comprehending the intercepted transmission that is currently driving his siblings to hysterics.
11* EntendreFailure: Damian utterly fails to pick up on the flirtatious subtext.
12* HowMuchDidYouHear: A variant; upon hearing that he left his comm line open while getting romantic with Catwoman, Batman anxiously asks Oracle how many of his children were listening. She can't bring herself to answer, but Spoiler, Red Hood, and Robin make it perfectly clear that they heard.
13* InterruptedIntimacy: Batman and Catwoman end one of their chases with innuendo-laden banter that was clearly leading into something more... until Bruce realizes that he left his comm-link open, his family heard ''everything'', and they have gained a serious need for BrainBleach (except for Damian, who failed to pick up on the subtext).
14* IsThisThingStillOn: All this wouldn't have happened had Batman remembered to mute his microphone. At the end, Oracle mutes it, but by that time, the damage has already been done.
15* MomentKiller: Just as Bruce is about to kiss Selina, Stephanie screams for the horror to stop and then Barbara tells him he left his comm on. After realizing most of his kids overheard everything (and will resultantly tease him mercilessly), Batman isn't in the mood anymore.
16* ParentalSexualitySquick: Batman's poor kids end up overhearing him flirting with Catwoman. Tim curls up in a corner to cry; Stephanie shudders, and Jason asks someone to re-kill him. Damian is the only exception -- and that's because he didn't ''recognize'' it for what it was.
17* PlayfulPursuit: The first part of the story shows Batman easily keeping pace with Catwoman as she [[RoofHopping roof-hops]]. He ends up cornering her against a building and saying playfully that he has ideas about what to do now that he's caught her...which is when the rest of the Batfamily breaks in.
18* TooMuchInformation: The title of this episode, in which Batman flirts with Catwoman while not realizing that he'd left his comm open... with most of his proteges/children listening. Spoiler [[WorstWhateverEver declares it to be the worst thing ever]]; Red Robin is left crying in a corner; Red Hood begs for someone to kill him again, and [[NoSocialSkills Damian]] innocently asked if he was going to arrest her.
19* TroubledFetalPosition: Red Robin is curled up and crying.
20* UnsoundEffect: Spoiler shivers in revulsion, which gets represented in-panel as "shudder".
