Recap / DC Super Hero Girls 2019 S 1 E 36 Dinner For Five

Go To

Babs is invited to dinner over at her new friend Rose Wilson's house. Unfortunately, Rose's dad turns out to be a notorious supervillain.

Tropes:

  • Crazy-Prepared: As usual. Batgirl has goggles that let her see through clouds of flour, specifically.
  • Diegetic Soundtrack Usage: Rose hums the theme song when she goes to get desert.
  • Freeze-Frame Bonus: In one shot you can see a certain weapon hanging on the wall of Slade's secret room: the atomic axe wielded by the Persuader from Legion of Super-Heroes.
  • Improvised Weapon: In the opening scene Deathstroke deflects Batgirl's projectiles with a ladle hanging on her kitchen wall.
  • No, Mr. Bond, I Expect You to Dine: Slade treats Barbara to a five-star meal, dropping hints the entire time he was the masked guy who broke into her house and attacked her the other night.
  • Noodle Incident:
    Rose: You promised you wouldn't try to assassinate my friends anymore! I'm very disappointed in you, Daddy.
  • Not What It Looks Like: When Rose catches him and Barbara both in costume and while he's throttling Batgirl with his sword drawn and ready, Slade sputters out, "It's not what it looks like!"
  • Put on a Bus: Rose leaves town to move back in with her mom at the end of the episode.
  • Wicked Cultured: Slade's extremely proud of his culinary sensibilities, for a guy who kills people for a living.
