So I was rewatching the Aftershock episodes . . . again. When I noticed something. In Aftershock part one - after Terra has taken down Raven, Starfire, Cyborg and Beast Boy - when Robin comes after Terra. He jumps off his motor cycle to tackle Terra and has her pinned and his word choice is . . . interesting to say the least:
Sound familiar???
It did to me. It sounds like a direct echo of this:
I'm pretty sure that this is the only time in the show that Robin doesn't abbreviate his words and I don't think it's a coincidence.
Think about it for a second, who has he just lost because of Terra? Starfire. He just saw her get knocked unconscious and fall of a cliff because of a boulder Terra threw. And who is the only one is the team who speaks this way, not abbreviateing their words like everyone else? Starfire. Also notice the situation with Terra. She betrayed the team and became Slade's apprentice, she is now fighting against them. Remind you of any situation Robin has been in? The situation where Starfire says this exact line during their iconic rooftop standoff.
This also might have been brought to mind because of Beast Boy mentioning his time as Slade's apprentice earlier in the episode and bringing up the similarities in his and Terra's situations.
I think this is a really cool parallel and a nice little thing to pick up on.
Maybe I'm reading far too much into this but I still think that this is entirely possible and no one can convince me otherwise.
TEEN TITANS EPISODE MISSING FOOTAGE
So, I just got HBO Max, and noticed something that I’ve seen before. For the Teen Titans show, the last episode of season one, Apprentice part 2, is missing the beginning minutes of the episode (in which the titans are looking for robin, and robin breaks in and steals something before the titans see him). I saw this before on the Cartoon Network app, and thought it was just a fluke, but apparently it might be a wider spread issue. Has anyone else noticed this on other streaming platforms it may be on?
You know what I always thought was really clever? In Apprentice, Part 2, when Slade says "Who knows? Maybe I might even become like a father to you."
And then Robin, so quietly, goes, "I already have a father"
And then the shot moves toward the ceiling of the lair where a few bats fly on and off screen.
Always thought that was neat. Like ten year old me loved that so much and I still love it.
Not to mention the next time we see Robin he's stealing from Wayne Enterprises..
It was just so cool, and still is cool, to watch that sequence of events, and it's why that episode is one of my favorites.
They're faces I'm DYING
Teen Titans (2003) Episode Thirteen AU Questions: If Robin didn’t hesitated on blasting Starfire with the thermal blaster, defeated his other former teammates, ran away and came back to Slade's lair (without his team finding out why he’s acting the way he was), how much worse could things get from here on out for the Boy Wonder? And how would his team do without their old leader...but, with a new one in Cyborg?
It’s like you want to cause pain?
So basically if Robin never hesitates, Slade never activates the probes so the titans don’t know they’re inside of them and don’t figure out that’s why Robin’s being such a dick
I’m assuming they use those probes to figure out where Slade’s lair is through some tech-y things Cyborg does, so they never barge in on Slade and Robin
When Robin gets back to the lair he still confronts slade and punches him in the face bc he’s a lil ball of rage
The fight still happens and still ends with Slade threatening to kill the Titans so Robin gives in
“I’ll do whatever you say”
So Slade keeps sending him out to do his dirty work and Robin has multiple run ins with his ex-team
Robin’s still trying to figure out a way to get the upperhand with slade and either deactive the probes or steal the activation button away so that he can stop this
He was trained by the Batman he doesn’t break easily ya feel??
The team never gives up hope though!! They know this isn’t the real Robin
At some point they decide to go over his head and call in Batman
Batman can easily track down where Slade’s lair is tbh
And since all five titans together can beat slade, the Titans plus Batman can DEFINITELY beat Slade
So that’s what happens
Robin get’s the probe activation button and breaks it
He tells the titans what had happened and everything goes back to normal the end!!!
As for the period of time where Cyborg was their leader:
The titans can get on pretty well, we’ve seen that they can manage in the Apprentice episodes
There are probably days where Starfire feels more distressed than usual about Robin and then her powers won’t work
We saw in Stranded that he really has an effect on her emotions (and subsequently her powers)
But Cyborg does really well as a leader, they all clearly respect him
He’s way less tough love than Robin and more of a big brotherly figure to all of them
But they need that support bc of what they’re going through with Robin right now
But ultimately they all support each other!!! it helps them get through all their fights with their ex-leader
They never give up on their friend bc they’re family
So here’s what happened the first time I watched Teen Titans...
Sixth grade me about to turn off TV: Wait what’s this show I’ve never seen before?
Me while opening song is going: Umm okay I don’t know who these people are and I don’t really ca-HOLY SHIT IS THAT ROBIN FROM BATMAN!?!?!
Me now interested in show and episode starts: Alright! Time to watch what ever the hell Batman cross over this is!
Me: The Apprentice part 2? Oh well I’m sure I don’t need to know whats going on.
Robin: *Is a bad guy*
Me:...wait what?
Robin: *continues to be bad guy*
Me:...WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON!?!!? BATMAN WOULD BE SO DISAPPOINTED IN YOU!!!!! STOP ROBIN STAAAAHP!
*Bonus*
Me: *See’s destroyed Wayne sign* Haha Batman’s gonna be piiiiiiissed
