* MagnificentBastard: TheMusicMeister is a being of unknown origins, who seeks to teach Kara and Barry a lesson regarding love. First appearing in "[[Recap/Supergirl2015S2E16StarCrossed Star-Crossed]]", he allows himself to be captured by the DEO, in order to put Kara in a trance and then escapes to Earth-1. Arriving at Star Labs, the Music Meister easily takes out Wally West, and traps Barry in the same dream as Kara. There he informs them that if they die in it they die in real life, and gives them vague instructions on how to escape. Revealed to be draining their powers, he uses them to try to rob a bank to draw the other heroes out and is constantly changing powers through the fight to keep them on their toes. Allowing himself to be captured again, the Music Meister gives Mon-El and Iris hints to save the two heroes before they die. The Music Meister ends the episode revealing it was all a SecretTestOfCharacter, and calming singing "Put a Little Love in Your Heart" while he leaves.

** Music Meister spends the whole episode trying to patch things up between Barry/Iris and Kara/Mon-El, when the finale of their respective seasons ends on a sad note for both of the couples.

** While the episode thankfully avoids the biggest problem of most shows that try to do a musical episode, that said why wasn't Creator/TomCavanagh who has an extensive resume in Musical Theater given a song?

* AuthorsSavingThrow: Unlike most shows that attempt the musical episode, this version thankfully sticks to only the cast members of the Arrowverse with musical training and backgrounds being given singing moments.

* HilariousInHindsight: The musical version of Joe West is gay--for Cecile's reaction, look no further than ''Series/KeyAndPeele'', where Cecile's actress appears on a double date with another woman and both Key and Peele, and Peele's character accidentally outs himself.

** Barry's Superman imitation becomes this after ''Elseworlds,'' when it's revealed that Barry has never actually met Superman, just going off of Kara's description of him.



** In a way, the whole concept of the episode could be considered this.
