[Dick] Previously on Titans...
[distorted] Let him go.
[gasping]
[Trigon] You did this.
This whole journey you've taken with your friends.
Gar.
You brought me here, Rachel.
It's all been to make this moment happen.
[groaning]
[Trigon] It's heartbreaking, isn't it?
Your purpose was to bring me into your world.
Let your heart break.
You're a monster inside.
A bringer of death.
We have a solid plan.
We shut this operation down for good.
Hank!
No!
You can nurse me back to health.
Two fractures, three concussions in the last year, and a herniated disc.
He should quit. You both should.
[Dawn] That's the plan.
- And we will, right? - As promised.
I've been thinkin' about San Francisco.
Titans again.
Titans are back, bitches!
You're kind of an asshole, aren't you, kid?
Maybe it's time for a do-over.
If there's anything you need, you let me know.
On one condition.
What is this place?
Home.
[music playing in cafe]
Got a triple venti mocha for Rochelle and a small coffee for Dirk.
Dick.
Excuse me?
Oh. Uh...
- Never mind. Here. - [laughs] Nice.
So, have you put any thought into our name?
What do you mean?
Well, you, Hank, Dawn, and Donna were the Titans.
So, what are we? The New Titans?
- Titans 2.0? - Titans: The Next Generation?
You're not helping.
Look, Rach, it doesn't matter what you're called.
It matters what you do. We're training for whatever's next.
There's never a shortage of people out there
who wanna screw things up for the rest of us.
You know what they say, "All it takes for evil to succeed..."
"Is for good men and women to do nothing."
That's Titans. Good men and women not doing nothing.
You could put that on a T-shirt, Dirk.
When I give the word, come at me, and don't hold back.
- Did you just nod? - Yeah, got it. Just don't hold back.
Go!
[both grunting]
- Fuck, man! - You said don't hold back.
What were you doing? I was fucking blindfolded.
You said, "Don't hold back."
- Should I get the hose? - What's goin' on?
We did what you said, the blindfold thing,
- then he went nuts on me. - He said, "Don't hold back."
Then why do we even learn to fight like this, man?
Hey, it's idiotic. We have eyes.
In battle, anything can be taken from you.
Your hands...
your feet...
and your eyes.
No matter what is taken, you must be able to keep fighting.
And win.
All right, get changed.
Attack scenarios in the tech room in five minutes.
Then breakfast.
Yo, look, it's been three months, man.
When do I get to go back to Gotham City?
Bruce doesn't think you're ready yet, and neither do I.
- I'm sorry, man. You blew your privileges. - What?
The Batmobile joyrides, the motorcycle on the staircase...
I was practicing my tactical maneuvers.
And those websites you bookmarked?
You know that's not what the Batcomputer is used for.
Oh, come on, man. This gig is a waste of time!
It's called training.
And you know as well as I do, it never stops.
- But all we do is fight each other. - Yeah, like equals.
When you're fighting with Batman, you're a sidekick.
- There are no sidekicks in Titans. - [Jason] You're kidding, right?
Because that's literally all the Titans are, are sidekicks.
I mean, it's practically the fucking motto. Wonder Girl, Aqualad...
You're thinking of the old Titans. This is the new Titans.
That was the whole point when Donna and I
put the team together the first time.
We're partners. We have each other's backs.
Yeah, well, tell that to Tiger Boy.
[sighs]
Okay, look, here's the thing.
I could actually use some help with the others.
They don't have the experience you have.
Yeah. Yeah, for sure.
Have you noticed how they sort of look up to you?
Follow your lead? When you're on point, they're on point.
- When you're not? - It's true.
They need your leadership, Jason.
You need to set the tone. I'm not Robin anymore. You are.
Hey, wait.
If I'm Robin...
who are you?
That's a good question.
[theme music playing]
[guard 1] Security breach in cell block two.
Security breach in cell block two.
- Do you copy? - [guard 2] All security personnel,
report to cell block two. This is not a drill.
Repeat. This is not a drill.
[guard 3] We have a security breach in cell block two.
Is anybody there?
- [guards screaming] - [bodies thudding]
[laughing]
[door opens]
- [footsteps approaching] - [alarm blaring]
[guard groaning]
[Dr. Light] Good. I thought the fun was over.
Please.
Don't. Please.
No! [groaning]
[screaming]
- [horse snorting] - [Hank] Whoa, whoa.
All right. This is all right.
- First thing, you stay calm. - What am I supposed to do, like...
Just pet her. Slow, firm strokes. There you go.
Good. Now you can get her attention.
Grab the reins and turn her head.
Look at you, cowboy.
- Thanks, Hank. - That's all you, Ellis.
[Ellis] Yee-haw!
[Dawn] You look really good out there.
Mmm. You smell like a horse.
Quiet. The horses can hear you.
[Dawn chuckles]
Sure beats Georgetown.
I was actually a little worried you'd be bored out here.
You're all the excitement I need.
- [Hank scoffs] - [Dawn chuckles]
I spoke to Dick today.
- How is hero academy going? - Pretty good, I guess.
He wants us to come visit.
- See the Tower and the city. - We should.
- Really? - Yeah, why not?
Isn't San Francisco like a 24-hour party?
You wanna put yourself through that?
You know the first thing they teach you in recovery?
The world's not gonna change just because you decided to get clean.
It's not just that.
I don't think a room full of masks is what we need right now.
Hey, Ellis's dad brought over, like, 40 pounds of rib eye.
Fresh cut.
- Yeah? - How's steak sound tonight?
I don't know. Are you cooking?
- Yeah, I'm cooking. - Mmm.
Who else is gonna cook around here? You?
[Dawn laughing]
I'm good, Dawn.
You don't have to worry about me.
I know.
- [Donna] Did you get any jellies? - No one likes jellies.
Maybe no one on Tamaran, but humans love jellies.
That's kind of why we invented them.
Oh, so now you're human. Got it.
I'm half human. And that half really likes jellies.
Did I miss anything?
No sign of Shimmer. I don't know. Maybe she's not gonna show.
[sighs] She'll show.
I don't know. I'm starting to think that Roy Harper's intel was wrong.
Well, you're the one that said Shimmer will do anything for money.
- If that includes murder... - It does.
Then this is the place those deals get done.
So, it might take a few weeks.
Don't you ever get tired?
Or impatient?
- Or pissed off? - Where I come from,
- it doesn't really pay to get pissed off. - So you like it better here?
In this van? No. I do not like it better here in this van.
On Earth.
It's nice to be in a place where people are still figuring themselves out.
So, Earth is kind of like one big middle school?
In a way. You're young,
you're just starting out.
But you're born with options.
Right? You live with options.
Sounds like you're thinking of staying more permanently.
I was thinking, after we wrapped, I might head to Florida.
I hear there's places where it actually gets above 50 degrees.
Hey, speaking of options, have you heard anything from Dick?
No. Have you?
Nope. I keep thinking he's gonna call
and beg me to help with the kids, but so far, nothin'.
- You good with that? - I'm great with that.
I did my time in the Tower.
[car door opens]
- [man] Welcome, sir. - [Dick] Keep it close.
[man] Yes, sir.
"In all fighting, the direct method"
may be used...
but... [yawns]
Indirect methods will be needed
in order to secure victory.
"As..." [mumbling]
[gasps]
[panting]
[groans]
[knocking on door]
Come in.
Thought you might be hungry.
Thanks.
"The onset..."
Gar.
Did you want to come in?
Sure.
- You make this? - Dick did.
The crust is made out of cauliflower.
Why would somebody do that?
If we hate eating, then we have more time to train.
Okay, so it's just not me. He's totally obsessed, right?
He's turning into Mr. Miyagi before our very eyes.
Good one.
Have you noticed the other thing?
What other thing?
He's always trying to be extra nice to me.
[laughs]
- Yeah. - I guess he's trying to make up for...
- Killing you. - Yeah.
Hmm.
- Is it working? - Not really.
This feels good. I...
We haven't talked like this in a while.
Yeah. Well, my fault.
- It's all good. - No, it's not.
I feel different.
Like I'm not the same person I used to be.
None of us are.
Have you talked to Dick about it?
God, no.
- You probably should. - I can't.
It's so important to him that we stay strong, you know?
Especially me. I'm his A student.
I can't let him down like that.
Are you worried that he's gonna think you're a failure?
I'm worried he's gonna think he's a failure.
- God, I miss Kory. - Me, too.
Road trip?
I think that would be highly unrecommended.
[helicopter approaching]
What's that?
[police siren wailing]
[officer 1 on loudspeaker] Pull the vehicle to the side of the road.
[tires screeching]
