Go To


1	In the aftermath of Dick's confession, the Titans' world is rocked to the core – and Dick's fear that his secret would break up the Titans comes true. Abandoning Titans Tower, the heroes all go their separate ways. Hank and Dawn return to Wyoming, Jason and Rose leave together, and Donna agrees to take Rachel with her. Kory, meanwhile, is surprised to hear from Faddei, who's returned with bad news from her home planet. Leaving Gar alone to tend to the still wounded Conner, Dick departs as well, in search of absolution for Jericho’s death.

3	!!Tropes featured in the episode:
4	* TheBadGuyWins: Slade reveals to Dick that his endgame was breaking up the Titans, and promises to kill all of them if they re-form.
5	* BoredomMontage: Gar spends at least 3 days training and looking after Conner, each day growing so bored, he loses track.
6	* DarkestHour: The Titans have been driven apart, and even the sub-groups they've formed (except for Jason and Rose) are split, and Deathstroke's vowed to kill them all if they reconcile. To make matters worse, Dick intentionally gets himself arrested as penance for his actions.
7	* EasilyForgiven: Massively averted. Gar and Kory are the only ones who are willing to give Dick some slack.
8	** Also averted with Adeline, who refuses to forgive Dick for his role in Jericho's death.
9	* ICannotSelfTerminate: Faddei asserts control enough to beg Kory to kill him as he can't live under Blackfire's control. She sadly obliges.
10	* FemaleGaze: Conner appears completely naked, with the camera focused on his bare ass.
11	* INeverSaidItWasPoison: Kory figures out Blackfire is controlling Faddei when she talks of once making fun of Blackfire at a wedding and he agrees it was funny... when he hadn't even attended that ceremony and wouldn't have known about it.
12	* IveHeardOfThatWhatIsIt:
13	-->'''Gar:''' I can turn into a tiger.
14	-->'''Conner:''' No way!
15	-->'''Gar:''' Yeah.
16	-->'''Conner:''' What's a tiger?
17	* NakedFirstImpression: How Conner meets Gar.
18	* NeverMyFault: Slade continues to blame Dick for roping his son into their fight and getting him killed. Sure, Slade didn't mean to kill Jericho, but he's the one who set in motion the events that led up to it by killing Aqualad and not turning himself in for it.
19	* ScrewThisImOuttaHere: The Titans collectively decide to disband after hearing the truth about Jericho's death.
20	** Raven leaves Donna, due to "playing her part".
21	* SelfMadeOrphan: In her conversation with her sister, Kory realises that Blackfire murdered their parents.
22	* SuicideByCop: A non-lethal variant. After deciding that exiling himself is too lenient of a punishment, Dick attacks and disarms two airport guards and allows himself to be arrested for it.
