Recap / DC Super Hero Girls 2019 S 1 E 43 House Pest

Go To

The girls find out Diana's home is a tree and set out to fix that by offering her to stay with them. Living with an Amazon is a lot harder than they imagined, though.


Tropes:

  • Age Lift: While she's not actually mentioned by name, Vanessa Kapatelis is in college rather than high school.
  • Arboreal Abode: Diana's been living in a tree since coming to Metropolis.
  • Hopeless with Tech: This is Diana's reason for not wanting to stay with Karen.
  • Mythology Gag: Diana has a stuffed Kangaroo named Jumpa, a reference to her Silver Age companion.
  • "The Reason You Suck" Speech: This was part of Diana's evening meal with her mom, supposedly to help her correct her character flaws. She ends up getting kicked out of Supergirl's house because her adoptive parents eagerly jump in on the idea and say all the things they wish Kara'd work on.
  • Sleepwalking: Diana starts acting out a battle in the middle of the night and almost stabs Commissioner Gordon with a spear.
  • Smart House: Karen has a remote control for everything. Hilarity Ensues when Diana sets off the home security by pushing the wrong button.
  • Taking a Third Option: Diana decides she can't be an Amazon anymore if she's going to live in the civilized world. Until it turns out the lady she knocked out while trying to throw her weapons away was professor Julia Kapatelis. Like her comics counterpart, Julia promises to help Diana adapt to the modern world while assuring Diana her Amazon heritage is worth being proud of and Diana shouldn't just turn her back on it.
  • Wake Up Make Up: Zee, thanks to Diana disturbing her throughout the night, doesn't sleep well, complete with red eyes. Diana, however, wakes up with her hair already perfect, sun shining and all, complete with a bird perched on her finger.
