[On computer screen] Good morning, Teen Titans. I do hope I didn't wake you.
Beast Boy
[Yawning] What are you, an insomniac? Who calls at five in the morning-? [Raven elbows him]
Well, that's precisely what you've been trying to find out, isn't it? And in spite of all your efforts, you're still in the dark about my intentions. Disappointing, Robin. I expected a little more from you.
But since you've been unable to discover my plan, I suppose I'll just have to reveal it myself. I'm sure you're all familiar with the concept of a Chronoton Detonator...
Beast Boy
No way! ...um, what's a crouton detonator?
It eradicates all chronotons within a localized area, utterly destroying the temporal component of the space-time continuum.
Beast Boy
Hmm?
It stops time. Permanently.
[Beast Boy faints.]
If he triggers that thing downtown, it'll freeze-frame the entire city.
You're a clever boy, Robin. I'm sure you and your little friends can figure it out. However, since I control the detonation, time is not on your side.
Robin? Robin! Please, Robin, where are you?
Starfire, enough. You've been calling for forty-five minutes.
Perhaps if I just try one more-
Beast Boy
Come on, Star. If he's gonna pick up, he'd have done it by now. Besides, you're kinda giving me a headache.
But why does he not respond? Where could he be?
Robin and Cinderblock definitely went a few rounds, but I can't tell who won, or where they went.
No sign of him here, either. His locator is still offline. I've been monitoring all the frequencies, but he hasn't checked in.
Oh, we are bad friends! We should never have left Robin to do battle alone.
Beast Boy
Yeah, especially since Slade's big doodad was a dud.
The Chronoton Detonator wasn't a dud. It was a decoy to lure us away from Robin, and we fell for it.
I shoulda known that thing was a fake!
But why? Why did Slade wish to separate us from Robin?
Beast Boy
And if the detonator was a decoy…
…what was Slade's real plan?
You're not walking outta here, Robin! Not without a fight. Titans! Go!
[As the Titans are ready to fight him, Robin dodges their attacks and escape through the air vents to go to the roof]
[through earpiece] Not so fast, Robin. You have yet to achieve your objective.
The device was too heavily guarded. I'll have to steal it another-
NO! Go back. Unless you want me to destroy them, go back and fight.
Robin! Look, I don't know what's going on, but we don't want to fight. We just want to talk.
[Robin uses a high flying kick that drives Cyborg back past the other three.]
Beast Boy
Guess there's nothing to talk about.
[Beast Boy tries to take him down, but Robin manages to pin him on the 'A' in Wayne Enterprise sign.]
[He runs pass her to fight the others instead.]
[aiming his proton cannon] Don't make me…
[He powers it down]
[While Raven and Cyborg tries to subdue Robin, Beast Boy escapes the sign letter as a snake and then turns into a bullhorn sheep and rams him]
Beast Boy
Dude! Are you okay?
[He then kicks BB and hurls him at Cyborg.]
Fight to win, Robin. Use the thermal blaster.
Azarath, Metrion, ZINTHOS!
[She uses spell lifts up and binds Robin. However, he scales a disc at her and explodes on the sign causing in her face a blinding flash.]
[Raven falls to the roof]
[Cyborg is blocking Robin’s punches.]
Come on, man, don't make me do this! I don't want to do this!
[Activates the weapon again. Robin low foot sweeps him, making Cyborg lose his balance. Robin goes to run off the top of the building, only to be stopped by Starfire raising her starbolt at him.]
I thought I told you to use that blaster. Attack! Now!
[Robin raises the weapon and points it on Starfire.]
Robin, you are my best friend. I cannot be in a world where we must fight. If you are truly evil, then go ahead. [She lowers her arm.] Do what you must.
[He lowers his arm as well.] Starfire, no! I- [the earpiece screeches feedback in his ear]
ROBIN! I gave you an order. If you won't attack, my probes will.
[He pushes the button. The nano probes slowly begins to kill Starfire]
[He sees that it's also happening to the other Titans too.]
Attack, Robin. It's the only way to save them. Attack with everything you've got.
[He points the blaster down at her and whispers] I’m sorry. [He fires.]
I have much to teach you. But the first thing you need to learn is gratitude.
[Robin tries for another go at the kill switch, but Slade seizes his arm and bends it back past the shoulder before dumping him onto his back.]
I made you my apprentice. All my knowledge, all my power, all for you. But the only thing you care about is your WORTHLESS, LITTLE. FRIENDS!!! [They both get up] If the Titans are so distracting, maybe I should just get rid of them.
Don't. I'll do whatever you say.
Good boy. And, from now on, I'd like you to call me Master.
[A starbolt blasts him away to land right in front of the monitors]
Get out of here! Go! You don't know what those beams did to-
Beast Boy
Dude…
We are your friends, Robin. We are not leaving without you.
How very touching. [puts his finger on the button] But Robin doesn't need any friends.
[He presses it, bringing the rapparatus to life; red energy bolts blaze out across the space. The Titans collapse on the ground]
This is the price for your disobedience, Robin. Now do as I command. Attack!
[Robin runs towards the device and gets himself infected with nano probes. His name and infected bloodstream appear on a 5th monitor]
New deal, Slade. If I lose my friends, you lose your apprentice. And I know how you hate to lose.
[Robin falls down on his knees as he continues to die slowly. Slade destroys the kill switch and he tries to attack again, but Robin quickly counters his move, leaving him flying across the room.]
[Beast Boy, now a tiger, is first to do damage with a clawed swipe that pierces the armor. Cyborg and Starfire move in next, starbolts and cannon going full throttle to blast Slade backward. As he tumbles, Raven casts a spell to bind his feet and sling him hard onto the platform. Robin delivers a flying kick on his masked face. The right half of his mask drops away and skids across the floor, and he now stands up with one big hand covering the exposed portion of his visage. He turns and runs off.]
Another day, Robin. Another day.
[The whole lair was set to self-destruct. Slade gets away, and before the Titans can leave, Cyborg grabs the device that contains a solution to get rid of the probs inside them.]
What? Haven't you guys ever seen a superhero before?
Teen Titans! [fist-bumps him] Rock on! It's cool to meet you guys! I'm Terra, and you're: Cyborg, Raven, Starfire, and-
Beast Boy
Boy Beast! I- I mean, Bath Food! Eh, no!
Beast Boy? [Beast Boy squeals and transforms into a turtle, hiding in his shell. Terra laughs] Dude, he's hilarious!
Beast Boy
Hilarious? Me? Really?
Curiosity abounds! Please, where do you come from, how did you get here, what is your favorite color, and do you wish to be my friend?
Um, Earth, walked, red and, sure.
Hello new friend! [hugs Terra]
Beast Boy
So... what brings such a cool little chickie to our big groovy city, huh?
I go where the wind takes me, y'know? I get to see new places, meet new people, stomp a few bad guys here and there.
Beast Boy
Cool! [chuckles]
You mean, you don't have a home?
The Earth is my home! I've been crashing in a cave on the other side of the hill-
Unacceptable! I cannot permit my new friend to slumber in a lonely cave of darkness!
C'mon, we've got plenty of room.
Beast Boy
Yeah! And I can make you laugh some more. I'm hilarious, remember?
Heh, well, I guess I could stay one night.
BBBeast Boy and Cyborg
Yeah!
[To Robin] Everything okay?
Not sure. Something just doesn't feel right.
Beast Boy
And the winner by technological knockout, the Mechanical Maniac, the Bionic Bruiser, the one, the only, Cyborg!
I shall express my gratitude with a Tamaranean folk song.
[Raven covers her mouth.]
Way to go, champ. [Beast Boy sighs]
[Referring to Cyborg's forearm] Guess we better get you a new one of those.
Don't need it anymore. My body may have its limitations, but if I put my mind to it, there's no limit to what I can do. After all, I'm only human.
[After the movie]
Beast Boy
Is it over?
I dare not open my eyes to find out!
Now I'm really sick to my stomach.
I've fought psychotic villains, robot commandos, and giant oozing monsters, but that is the scariest thing I have ever seen.
[The four pause and then laugh]
Beast Boy
Did I tell you or did I tell you!?
Thrilling Beast Boy! It was wonderfully horrible!
Yeah when she went into the basement!
And it was right behind her and she turned and-
I was FREAKING OUT! I wanted to turn it off...
Beast Boy
Sooooo come on Raven, admit it, you were totally scared.
Sounded like something from the movie. Did we leave the TV on?
We did not. And the movie is right here.
[The lights go out]
The storm. Probably just tripped a circuit breaker.
[A green tentacle comes to rest on Robin's shoulder and Cyborg and Starfire shriek]
Okay Beast Boy, you got us. [brushes the tentacle off] Good one.
[Beast Boy pops up next to the others]
Beast Boy
Uhhh, dude?
[Robin turns around to find the terrifying monster from Wicked Scary attacking]
[Kitten and Robin are dancing. Kitten leans in close]
From now on, Robbie-Poo, this will always be our song.
[Pulls out communicator, whispers] Please tell me you guys have found Killer Moth.
Not yet. But we tracked down your girlfriend's home address.
Beast Boy
Aah! [Bumps into a table that turns into a staircase leading to a basement]
Well, that's not suspicious.
