"GREEN ARROW, STEPHANIE? REALLY?!”
Bruce

Dick goes and passes around superhero memorabilia to his siblings. Bruce doesn’t care at first, but he becomes more and more irritated upon realizing his kids like other heroes more than him.

Tropes

  • Cross-Popping Veins: As Bruce nears his breaking point, the "cross-vein" symbol appears in the air.
  • Deadpan Snarker: Green Arrow doesn’t really see the difference between Normal Batman and Jealous Batman.
    Superman: Does Batman look broodier than usual today?
    Green Arrow: Seems normal to me.
  • The Gadfly: While the others were innocently insensitive about the merchandise, Steph was intentionally trolling Bruce about why she's a big Green Arrow fan.
  • Green-Eyed Monster: Bruce slowly becomes angry at the fact his kids don’t see him as their hero.
  • The Hero's Idol: Despite being accomplished superheroes in their own right, every Bat Family kid in this episode wears the merch of their favorite superhero.
    • Dick wears a Superman hoodie in the beginning of the episode.
    • In the gym, Bruce sees Jason wearing Wonder Woman sweatpants.
    • Barbara wears a Black Canary shirt.
    • Duke wears sneakers with The Flash's logo on them.
    • At the dining table, Steph loudly slurps from a Green Arrow cup.
  • Innocently Insensitive: Most of the Bat-kids aren't trying to draw Batman's attention to the merchandise; they're just wearing things and Batman is very observant and feeling more sensitive than usual.
  • The Noisy Straw: As Bruce is sitting at the table, Stephanie, who's sitting across from him, drinks the last of her beverage, resulting in a loud slurping sound. She's drinking from a Green Arrow tumbler.
  • Rage Breaking Point: Steph drinking out of her Green Arrow cup is the final straw for Bruce.
