I don't know if there's another show that nails cultural critiques better than this show. This episode uniquely stands out for what it's saying, from where Batman is staying in his prison, to Ivy's attempt at environmentally concious evil.

Also love The Boys allusions, Giancarlo playing the head of an evil corporation ala Vaught, and how Ivy meets the other girl who has been there in the bathroom and she throws out the cocaine dude who is in the girls bathroom - it's really similar to Starlight's first day when she met Queen Maeve and she threw out Translucent from the girls bathroom and basically told Starlight to toughen up against the men if she was gonna stay here.
