Hal' ex-girlfriend, Carol Ferris better known as Star Sapphire returns! Can Jessica defeat her without resorting to violence?

Tropes:

  • 2-D Space: Averted, during Jessica and Hal's sparring they end up fighting above and upside down in relation to Kilowog.
  • Cooldown Hug: Jessica eventually defeats Star Sapphire by pulling her into hug and explaining to her that Hal doesn't love her.
  • Dumped via Text Message: How Hal broke up with Carol. He put a smiley face, but that didn't exactly helped.
  • Embarrassing First Name: Jessica reveals that Hal's real name is actually "Harold."
  • Mistaken for Romance: Star Sapphire assumes that Jessica is Hal's new girlfriend.
  • Psychosomatic Superpower Outage: Hal is so scared of Carol that his ring stops working when she shows up.
  • Pulling the Rug Out: While Jessica refuses to use her powers in violent way, she's not above creating carpet under Kilowog and pulling this trick to beat him.
  • Rapid-Fire "No!": Jessica after Star Sapphire mistakes her for Hal's new girlfriend/ Her reaction switched during it from amused explaining to hard denying.
  • Sudden Downer Ending: Just when it seems that Jessica managed to get trough Carol with her speech, it turns out she still determined to make Hal her boyfriend and learning to love herself just made her more powerful than ever before. Played for laughs.
  • Violence is the Only Option: Discussed trough episode, as both Kilowog and Hal try to convince Jessica to start using force against her opponents.
  • Worst. Whatever. Ever!: Star Sapphire describes Hal break-up text as "Worst text ever!"
