Poison Ivy (to Harley): "What's the endgame? What do you really want?"
At this point, Ivy, it seems what Harley really wants would be you. I get the impression had this show been made a few years ago, the roles would've been reversed and it would've been Ivy pining over Harley and going to extremes to deny her growing feelings for her best friend.
It's actually better on the shows part that it's Harley falling deep in love and this episode, she did everything in her power to deal with that. I mean she played off the kiss she shared with Ivy from last week and even kissed Dr Psycho and Batgirl so she didn't have to deal with her feelings.
On top of that when Batgirl also warned Harley about Gordon coming for her, Harley decided to take a trip to Apokolips, woo Darkseid, beat the crap out Granny Goodness with some help and get herself an army of Parademons to take out Gordon, once and for all.
Harley wanted to badly prove how much of a supervillain she was capable of being with only Dr Psycho encouraging her dark side (and you know, that guy too). It was also Psycho who then quit the team when Harley relinquished her hold over the Parademons and gave Gordon his victory and all because Ivy talked her around.
We might have to wait just a bit longer for Harley and Ivy to actually get together but the show definitely intends to go there. Sure this week we had a subplot of Ivy sticking up for Kite Man when his parents were horrible but I still don't see the pair of them heading for wedded bliss though. Harley wont be able to keep her feelings for Ivy to herself for much longer.
- Kite Man's father has ice powers and his mother can levitate. I really hope the show doesn't vilify him in order to give Harley and Ivy a happy ending.
- We got Mr Miracle as an escape artist and it looks like Harley might have killed him.
- While Psycho's misogyny was more rampant here, at least Clayface and King Shark had Harlet's back.
- Chronology: From where the previous episode left off.
Inner (Para) Demons certainly had a lot of fun with bringing characters from Apokolips into the.mix while showing it's commitment to the Harley/Ivy ship. Next week's bachelorette party should really push things even further on that note.
