Plot hole: There's no reason the other villains couldn't have used Chief Underhill as a hostage to escape. After all, he's not some hardened criminal like them, nor insane. He should've been put in the same private cell as the Riddler informant who's a cop.

Amsterdamned (1988)

Plot hole: Somehow, the killer, with a scuba tank on his back which weighs a ton, can quietly sneak in and out of a poultry shop in the split second the butchers have their backs turned, to steal a knife.

Bug: Before Azrael makes his choice at the end of "Heir To The Cowl" in the Clocktower, his sword's blade appears to get longer as he approaches Batman.

Answer: The Hulk is accused of killing Dr. David Banner and Dr. Elenia Marks. After the lab explodes, McGee sees the Hulk emerge carrying the body of Dr. Marks, so he assumed the creature is guilty. It was McGee who caused the explosion. After following the trail of evidence of the Hulk to the lab, he hides when David and Elania arrive. In a darkened storage closet, he knocks over a bottle of flammable liquid. He confronts them, then is forced to leave by Banner, who says, "Don't make me angry, you wouldn't like me when I'm angry." When Banner reenters the lab, it explodes, caused by the Hulk when it went on a rampage trashing the lab, causing many electrical systems to catch fire, thus igniting the flammable liquid.

Answer: The phrase "Incredible Hulk" is coined by Jack McGee in one of his tabloid articles. He's trying to find proof of the Hulk because no one takes his story seriously, so probably nobody takes his name for the creature seriously either.

Question: Are the victims of Professor Pyg, the ones Batman identifies, people who worked on the game?

Stupidity: There's no reason the robber can't use baby Ricky, who's still in the car, as a hostage to force Billy out of hiding.

King of the Hill (1997)

Answer: I don't think this has been explained in any episode. At some point, he most likely asked people to use his full name. Perhaps he wants to highlight the "Redcorn" at all times, out of pride for his family history.

Answer: John is a common enough name that they might know several other Johns that we've never met, so they're being specific.

To Catch a Killer (2023)

Factual error: Eleanor Falco is mentioned as having substance problems. No way would the FBI recruit someone with such a problem.

Answer: In the first season, Steve and Marcy are portrayed as being more proper and "straight-laced", compared to the following three seasons (and Marcy's later personality, after they divorce). I think Steve is having more "exotic" urges than usual, after going to Buffalo. If I am correct, it's not considered a very wild and intense place, but it was a change from the Rhoades' well-managed routine.

The Jerk (1979)

Answer: Navin self-applies the "Jerk" epithet early in the film, using it not in the sense of someone obnoxious or mean (as it is used in most cases), but in the sense of a stupid person. He's saying he blames himself and his lack of intelligence (though, as you say, it is usually simple naïveté) for ending up where he is (broke, homeless).

Suggested correction: Bobby has generally earned his parents' trust. He might get into trouble occasionally, as many pre-teen boys do, but not so much that Hank and Peggy need to cover all the bases. They believe that he stopped going to the deli. As Peggy tells Connie, "He is doing everything he can to get back on his feet in time for that dance."

Gotham Knights (2022)

Stupidity: Clayface shouldn't be hiding out in the sewer, as water is a weakness of his.

Plot hole: Somehow, the Phantom gets a piano down to his sewer lair all by himself.

Follow That Bird (1985)

Plot hole: Given how long it takes to set up a carnival, and that they arrived at the same time as everyone else, it's highly unlikely the Sleaze brothers could've had everything already set up, much less been open for five hours already.

Answer: As a child, Jervis Tetch never had any friends. Even in his adult years, he was all alone. When Jervis asked Batman to be his Alice, he was essentially asking Batman to be his friend.
