[[caption-width-right:350:Having "[[Recap/TeenTitansS1E12ApprenticePartOne Apprentice]]" flashbacks yet?]]

* [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Rb37HGrLPI The Titans Tower being blown up]], with Jade/Slade's chilling TechnicallyASmile TraitorShot. Seeing one of the most well-known locations in the series (and even the previous one as well) falling apart and being caught on fire, as well as Robin's race to escape really shows how {{vile|VillainSaccharineShow}} Slade can be.

* Robin's nightmare, doubling as a TearJerker. It starts off as a seemingly normal dream, consisting of [[Disney/TheLionKing all the heroes gathering around Wayne Enterprises to see Batman raise a baby Robin to the sky]]. Then all of the heroes deride baby!Robin for being a sidekick and a joke. Then ''Batman just tosses Robin off the edge of the building''. Luckily, Robin wakes up before the nightmare ends.

--->'''Slade:''' Look at it Robin! It's so awesome! It's so cool! It's the most incredible superhero movie the world has ever seen! It's got special effects! Tons and tons of special effects! Even your super sweet cape is special effects! It'll blow your mind! Just take a quick peek! It's your movie, your movie, your superhero movie! It's all about you!

--->'''Slade:''' I gave all the superheroes movie deals. And while those dumb-dumbs were distracted filming, I would steal key valuables ''from the cities they once protected''! And now, with my fully charged Titonium crystal, I will have the power to encrypt [Robin's] movie with my patented ''MindManipulation''! I will stream to every screen in the entire world, and ''EVERYONE'' will be mind controlled! People will rob banks for me! People will build monuments of me! [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking And when I need someone to pick me up from the airport on short notice,]] ''[[MundaneUtility they will pick me up!]]'' [[MoodWhiplash You know what a hassle that is.]] And once the finished watching the entire movie, the effects of my mind control will be permanent.

* BrainwashedAndCrazy Robin. He clearly has no quorum over ''killing'' his teammates. It doesn't help that what he ''does'' say are in a VoiceOfTheLegion tone.

* When Slade and the Titans actually [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7ZOBTkkaY4M fight for the first time]], Slade ''is not holding back''. He's definitely trying to ''kill'' them as coldly and efficiently as possible. To the Titans' credit, they manage to (barely) counteract his attacks.
%% A minor blink-and-you'll-miss-it, during the final battle, Raven briefly sprouts four eyes. Yes, Trigon's Daughter made a cameo.[[note]]And even though it's a throwaway gag early in the film, we find out Trigon does exist in the Go universe.[[/note]]

** His plan: to mind control the world using Robin's movie as the base. We are then treated to such [[SarcasmMode lovely]] imagery such as people robbing banks, people building statues of him, and [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking providing a taxi from the airport]].

* The Titans Tower being blown up. Seeing one of the most well-known locations in the series (and even the previous one as well) falling apart and being caught on fire, as well as Robin's race to escape really shows how {{vile|VillainSaccharineShow}} Slade can be.

* BrainwashedAndCrazy Robin. He clearly has no quorum over ''killing'' his teammates. It doesn't help that most of the things that he ''does'' say are in a VoiceOfTheLegion tone.

'''Robin:''' You were all holding me back!\\

** Imagine this from the other Titans' perspective. They make it to where Slade has Robin cornered and destroy all of the mind control screens. They think they won and [[WhamShot then]]... [[FaceRevealingTurn Robin turns with purple glowing eyes]]. They are then forced to [[IKnowYoureInThereSomewhereFight fight]] him while he shows little to no mercy on them. This is easily the most suspenseful moment in the entire movie.

** There's also ''how'' he got brainwashed. He and Slade were fighting on top of a soundstage, Slade escapes to the inside. Robin follows... only to be surrounded with screens with his movie. And Slade's using his MindManipulation techniques to get him to look. In a DarkReprise of ''[[IronicEcho My Superhero Movie]]''.
