transcript

***Beeline*** is the ninth episode of the first season of the series *DC Super Hero Girls*. The episode is scheduled to air on May 12, 2019. It features Karen trying to get the team to help her foil an attempt by Harley Quinn and her team to blow up a bridge. "Beeline" is the name Batgirl gives in this episode to the tackle move performed by Bumblebee.

## Summary

The episode starts with the team as ordinary teenagers running to get to a ferry that's already departed. They all manage to jump from the pier onto the ferry, except Karen who hesitates and misses the ferry. Babs shouts to her to use her "sup..." but Zee covers Babs's mouth and tells her "there are far too many people around for that."

Karen starts walking and tells herself that she doesn't have what it takes to be a hero. When she crosses a bridge she happens upon Star Sapphire, Catwoman, Livewire, Poison Ivy, Giganta, and Harley Quinn. Harley plans to blow up the bridge so her math teacher Mr Johnson gets stuck in traffic and can't give her a math test. Karen activates her Bumblebee suit and flies off.

Karen calls Diana on her wrist-communicator to alert her, but Diana mishandles her communicator and the call disconnects. Karen then flies to the Lazarus Pit dance club and tries to talk to Kara, but the crowd crowd-surfs her right out of the club. She then flies to the Burrito Bucket restaurant and skips to the front of the line to talk to Babs, but before she can alert Babs she notices the line, apologizes, and goes to the back of the line. When she finally gets to the teller, she finds that Babs is gone. Outside of the Burrito Bucket, she meets Jessica protesting with sings to "save the cows". She tells her that "they're gonna blow up the bridge unless we stop them", but Jess takes this as "the bridge between man and animal." Karen tells Jess that "there's a bomb on the bridge", and Jess starts chanting the phrase then goes away to distribute pamphlets.

Karen flies to Zee at her penthouse and tells her the entire situation, including some extraneous details about having to cross the bridge to get to piano lessons and being stuck in the car with her dad listening to him talk about the '90s and that she's sorry that people eat cows. Zee tells Karen she'll join her as soon as she finds her cape, and starts looking for it. Karen screams and flies back to the bridge.

At the bridge, Karen talks herself into trying to stop the bombing for the good of the city. She activates her Bumblebee suit and tackles Harley right as she pushes down the detonator plunger. The plunger breaks and the bridge remains standing. The six villains gang up on Bumblebee but she stands defiant in front of them. Giganta throws a punch at Bumblebee but Wonder Woman stops it. The team assembles and Wonder Woman congratulates Bumblebee for her courage. Batgirl names Bumblebee's tackle move "Beeline". The episode ends in a white flash as both teams charge at each other.

She asks Babs and Karen to give up their tech devices and Hal to give up his power ring, which she collects in a bag and puts away. She says they shouldn't use their powers anyway because Jess brought Pam along with them.

Pam witnesses the other members of the group break off branches, whittle wood, chop wood, and burn wood in a campfire, which horrifies her. When Jess offers her a veggie-kebob she runs off into the forest, where she turns into Poison Ivy.

Babs tells a campfire story about the witch of the woods. The story parallels the actions of Poison Ivy, who raises zombie-like plants from the ground and directs them toward the campers. Ivy shrieks upon seeing Hal's name carved into a tree trunk, and Karen recognizes her voice. Hal says the witch of the woods got her, and Babs says she made up the story. The zombie-like plants surround them, and they run toward the lake.

Garth is dragged in the lake, and emerges as Aqualad, but before he can do anything he's swallowed whole by a plant. The others run toward the cabin, and Hal gets his leg caught by one of the zombie-like plants, but Babs manages to break it off and they reach the cabin. The plant eventually takes over Hal, and he attacks the other campers, who manage to trap him in a closet.

Jess, Karen, and Babs head to the bag containing their power rings and tech gadgets. Karen and Babs are taken by the plants, and Jess gets swallowed up by the plants right as she reaches the bag. Poison Ivy, watching from afar, says "now *this* is the glory of nature."

Jess emerges out of the throngs of plants with a power-ring-construct chainsaw, and Babs, Karen, and Garth find their way out of the plants. The next morning they get in the car and head out. They find Pam walking on the road. Jess says "Pam! You're alive!" and Pam responds quizzically "Hey... you're alive too...? Yay." The episode ends with Jess braking the car and exclaiming "we forgot Hal", and the scene cutting to the closet door with Hal asking for someone to make him a sandwich.

Giganta

* Giganta

**Doris Zeul**, also known as **Giganta**, is an antagonist in the series *DC Super Hero Girls*.

## Development

Lauren Faust posted a development sketch of Doris and Diana playing voleyball. She mentions that she never got around to further developing this idea.

## Depiction

### Cartoons

Doris first appears in the short Taco Tuesday where she tries to steal Karen's lunch. Karen bumps into her after standing in line for a taco at the cafeteria. Doris tries to take Karen's taco, and after chasing Karen around school, she finally grabs Karen's taco at the library. Before she can eat it, the librarian swipes it and hauls Doris away.

Doris first appears as Giganta in the episode *Beeline*, where she assists Harley Quinn in her attempt to blow up a bridge. After Karen tackles Harley just as she's about to set off the explosives, Giganta throws a punch at Karen, but the punch is easily stopped by Wonder Woman with her hand. The clip is featured in the series trailer.

Giganta is featured more prominently in the episode *She Might Be Giant*. After her parents leave for a science conference, she takes a liquid from their home laboratory and injects herself with it. Afterwards she goes to a sporting goods store at a mall, and the seller belittles her for being a girl. She becomes gigantic and starts wreaking havoc at the mall, overpowering each member of the team except Bumblebee, who manages to outwit her and stop her rampage. In the episode short Lost and Found, it was revealed that Giganta had deep hidden fears that she is not good enough, which explains why she acts so mean and monster-like. Now that people know her secrets, they claim to think she is misunderstood. However, for some reason Giganta still wants people to fear her as a monster.

### Comics

The comic Weird Science begins with the team fighting Giganta, and Zee magically transporting her to a snowy penguin-inhabited landscape.

Doris has a knitting hobby in two of the comics[which ones?] which she says she finds relaxing. She says she likes small dogs but doesn't like small people.

### Doris's parents

Doris's parents are named Francis and Baetrice in the credits for the short *Artificial Intelligence*.

Rage Cat

Jessica holding Dexter at the animal shelter

transcript

***Rage Cat*** is the 27th episode of the first season of the series *DC Super Hero Girls*. The episode aired on November 30, 2019. The episode was released on online streaming services on November 26, 2019.

The episode begins with a montage of Jessica and the other animal shelter employees holding an adoption event. All the shelter animals are adopted, except one that Jessica finds in the back of the animal shelter. The other employees warn her about the cat, Dexter, and his violent behavior. She attempts to find Dexter an adoptive home but Dexter behaves badly and they go from one attempt to the next. After several failed attempts, Jess takes Dexter to a photo shoot. A crowd forms around him, and then his eyes glow red and a red beam from the sky hits him. He levitates, and a red power ring slips onto his tail. He emerges from the glowing red beam and introduces himself as "Dex-Starr of the Red Lantern Corp." He explains that the members of the Red Lantern Corp members are the angriest beings in the universe whose power rings are fueled by rage. Dex-Starr attacks Jessica, who transforms into Green Lantern, subdues him, and takes his power ring. The scene fades to white and fades into a shot of Dexter looking sad and Jessica whispering "It's almost time..." The shot zooms out and Jess shouts "FOR DINNER! Well, what do you think, am I the perfect owner or what?" Dexy slaps away his food bowl and the scene cuts to black after Jess says "oh you!"
Ace

**Ace** or **Ace the Bat-hound** is a dog featured in the series *DC Super Hero Girls*. A dog wearing a Batman cape first appears in the short *The Late Batsby*, but its character design does not match the design of Ace in the show.

## Depiction

### Cartoon

Ace is introduced in the episode *Beasts in Show* by Barbara, who says:

> "*He was Dad's old police dog back in Gotham, but now he's retired, and that means he's all mine! His name is Ace, but I call him Ace the Bat-hound.*"
>
>
>

> "*He's 26 inches at the shoulder, medium coat, finished first in his class in the academy, extremely intelligent, cleanly chiseled and noble head, four paws, super-lovable personality, and the cutest wutest little fuzzy black nose!*"
>
>
>

The announcer in the dog show in *Beasts in Show* calls Ace a German Shepherd. The announcer is impressed with Ace's display of training and obedience in the obedience trial and the flyball course. Ace and Krypto are then featured in a montage of various challenges in the dog show.

During the final event, two hyenas that ran away from Harley Quinn barge into the dog show. Ace and Krypto work together to fight them, with Ace gliding on bat-wings, throwing smoke pellets from his collar, and scratching Krypto's belly so Krypto taps the ground with his foot and make the hyenas lose their footing from the shaking. Ace uses a batarang to cut down a banner and wrap it around the hyenas, which Ace then throws out of the dog show. At the end of the episode, Ace and Krypto play together at Pelham Park and chase a cat.

### Merchandise

A figure of Ace the Bat-hound depicts him in a similar design to the dog from the short *The Late Batsby*, with Batgirl wearing roller-skates and keeping the dog on a leash.
Green Lantern

## Jessica Cruz

Green Lantern

**Jessica Cruz**, also known as **Green Lantern**, is a member of the superhero team the Super Hero Girls and one of the main characters of the series *DC Super Hero Girls*.

## Development

Lauren Faust wrote on Twitter that Jessica Cruz is 16 and she's only been a superhero for a semester.

* Gallery

## Depiction

The narrator in the short *Meet Green Lantern!* says that the protectors of the universe called Green Lanterns have power rings that let them create anything they want by using their willpower, that the Green Lantern Jessica Cruz has a lot of willpower, and that she tries to be non-violent, with some exceptions.

Jessica is introduced early in the first episode of the series, *Sweet Justice*, when she tries to reject the power ring given to her by the Green Lantern corps by giving it to Hal, another Green Lantern who wears a power ring. He pushes it back to her and says the corps chose *her*. Later in the episode she introduces herself to Wonder Woman and the rest of the team, saying she's a cadet in the Green Lantern corps who gave her the power ring which allows her to create anything she wants, and that she doesn't believe in violence.

She didn't like being violent to everyone except for Hal Jordan.

## Green Lantern

The name "Green Lantern" is used by many members of the Green Lantern corps who wears the Green Lantern ring, among them Hal Jordan, who is introduced alongside Jessica in *Sweet Justice*, and Kilowog who is introduced in *Hate Triangle*.

Casey Krinsky

**Casey Krinsky** is an antagonists in the show *DC Super Hero Girls*. She first prominently appears in the episode *All About Zee*, where she forms an overenthusiastic attachmant to Zee after bumping into her in Metropolis High School.

Casey walks through the school halls but bumps into almot everyone because no one notices her. She bumps into Zee and apologizes, and Zee offers her help. Zee lets Casey have her handbag because Casey's bag is ripped. Casey is very excited at Zee's friendly attitude. At the cafeteria, Zee introduces Casey to her friends as her "new friend", and they're all impressed with her for getting them lunch tots.

Casey follows Zee home, dresses like her, and gets overly involved in her personal life. When Casey follows Zee to the bathroom, Zee snaps at her. Casey snaps in return and turns into an exact copy of Zee, and even possesses her magic while Zee loses hers. Zee, looking like Casey, shouts in the school halls that she is Zee Zatara, but her friends don't believe her and the other students walk by her without paying attention.

Casey, looking like Zee, enters the secret hideout, she finds out Zee's school friends are the Super Hero Girls. Casey turns into a combination of all the girls and flies out of the hideout. Kara tries to fly to stop her but falls flat on her face, saying Casey took the girls' powers. Zee, looking like Casey, lures Casey into a house of mirrors. Casey emotionally cracks when Zee tells Casey she liked her before her evil plot. Casey and Zee turn back into themselves but Casey rejects Zee's friendship. The Super Hero Girls regain their powers. At school, Casey tells the students about the secret identities of the Super Hero Girls, but nobody believes her.

Throughout the episode, the Super Hero Girls mispronounce and mistake Casey Krinsky's name: Zee calls her Cassie, Caitlyn, and Katie; Kara calls her Kazinsky, Carly, and McCloskey; Jess calls her Kerry Clemente; and Babs calls her Mega Cammy Kombucha.
