[[spoiler: And then it turns out that the story's entire plot -- someone conducting a campaign to emotionally destroy the Titans -- was set up in advance by him at some point during Season 2.]]

He was thrown into a pool of lava in the second season, but the dust in his mask left a chemical substance that made Robin see, hear and feel Slade, even when he wasn't there. It's also a subversion; Slade himself is resurrected by Trigon in the following season.
