'Stargirl' Season 1 Episode 4: Courtney needs to stop saying her dad is Starman and using real names, say fans

While fans took an instant liking to Wildcat, they found it funny that Courtney, who just became a superhero a week ago, was mentoring her

After being defeated by Icicle (Neil Jackman), Stargirl (Brec Bassinger) realized that she couldn't save the world from the Injustice Society Of America alone. She needs help. In the latest episode, she recruits Yolanda Montez (Yvette Monreal), a teenager, who suffered some serious slut-shaming by schoolmates and is now an outcast at school as well as home. Yolanda finds her smile again, thanks to Courtney's gentle pursuing, and the two strike up a close friendship. Courtney hands over the Wildcat costume to Yolanda, who after some reservation, becomes accustomed to it. After prowling around a hospital building and almost wondering if she should kill her ex, Yolanda gets cold feet and decides not to be Wildcat. But by the end of the episode, she makes up her mind and is back in the game. 

While fans took an instant liking to Wildcat, they found it funny that Courtney, who just became a superhero a week ago, was mentoring her. For starters, Courtney forgets the first rule of superhero-ing: Not to reveal your secret identity. Secondly, Courtney has a habit of mentioning that her father is Starman, in every episode. "Courtney breaking rule number one of being a Superhero: Don't reveal your identity #Stargirl," a fan wrote.

Courtney's classmate hears her referring to Wildcat as Yolanda while they're busy trespassing the hospital. "COURTNEY RULE NUMBER 1 DON'T USE REAL NAMES," an exasperated fan wrote. 

"Looks like Courtney is somehow a mentor to Wildcat but Courtney herself is in the beginning, Haha," one fan noted while another wrote, "I need Courtney to stop saying her dad is Starman."

"Nobody: Courtney: Didn’t you hear? Nobody: Courtney: STaRMaN’s mY dAd," a fan tweeted. "'My real Dad...was Starman.' Y'know Courtney this has become a drinking game for EVERYTIME you say that," another posted.

Meanwhile, many other fans are all praise for Courtney and Yolanda's friendship and say it is the 'purest' thing ever. "Courtney and Yolanda will be so much fun," a fan wrote while another tweeted, "Courtney yelling 'I believe in you' to Yolanda."

Watch 'Stargirl' on Tuesdays at 8 pm on The CW.
