History Recap / BatmanWayneFamilyAdventuresEpisode17TopChef

* CharacterExaggeration: While mainstream versions of Dick are far more often seen eating cereal he is capable of cooking a meal, for instance he once prepared Tim bacon and eggs when Bruce as out of commission due to his back being broken, which Tim treated as super impressive due to most of his meals coming from school cafeterias since he'd been in BoardingSchool most of his life. Tim has also been shown to be not completely incompetent in the kitchen, he once prepared a homemade soup for Stephanie when she was sick with his stepmother's help in ''ComicBook/Robin1993''. While Dick's cooking skills tend towards basic meals and Tim has to carefully follows step by step instructions for his it's unlikely their attempts to bake a pie would go quite ''so'' badly. Tim does follow the instructions he's given carefully in "Top Chef", and the major contributors to the pie's failure are Damian and Cass, but it seems like either he or Dick should have looked up a recipe rather than wing it since neither of them knew how to bake a pie.

* EpicFail: They used a ''pot'' to bake their pie in, thinking that any pan would do, didn't preheat the oven, got the dough-to-filling ratio incorrect, let it bake too long, and ''put a stick of celery in it'' for some reason. No one is brave enough to eat it.

* BystanderSyndrome: Kate was supposed to keep the kids out of the kitchen entirely by Alfred's request, and probably should have stepped in and offered help or at least a bit of critisism to remind Dick that he could look up a recipe on his phone when it became clear Dick wasn't going off a recipe and was making things up as he went along. Instead she just followed to watch.

* PassThePopcorn: After telling Dick she's supposed to keep them out of the kitchen Kate simply follows them to lean against the wall and watch the chaos where she can easily reach snacks. Alfred is later unimpressed with her "attempt" to keep them out of his kitchen.

* EpicFail: Among other things, they used a ''pot'' to bake their pie in, thinking that any pan would do.

* LethalChef: The final product is...questionable to say the least. Stephanie flat-out refuses to eat it.

* LethalChef: According to Damian, Bruce is banned for life from the kitchen by Alfred.
