Batman Gets Corrected Mid-Rap

U rappin' This is where I watched my parents die Parappa. This is where you watched your parents die. *oops*

In a rainy cartoon city, Batman dramatically raps beside Parappa the Rapper while a music-game-style rating shows “COOL GOOD BAD AWFUL.” Batman delivers a grim reference to his parents’ death, but Parappa corrects him because Batman watched it happen rather than watched his parents die; the awkward correction ends with “*oops*.” The upbeat rap music and deadpan rhythm make the dark misunderstanding absurd and heighten the punchline.
