The DC Animated Universe Weekly Review - Batman: The Animated Series

Batman: The Animated Series

Episode 29

Eternal Youth

 


Poison Ivy is turning rich people into plants.  She creates a fake spa, sends a video to Bruce Wayne offering a free weekend but Alfred and his girlfriend go in his place.  The couple returns home but have become addicted to the spa life and go back. Poison Ivy reveals herself and turns them into plants.  Batman shows up and saves everyone.  

 

The main problem with this episode is that Ivy appears in the spa promotion video.  It would take a second to realize it’s her.  The worlds greatest detective and his butler shouldn't have had a problem figuring this out.  It’s a big plot hole, huge. The episode works well everywhere else you really have to suspend your disbelief.
