Very interesting episode, even though I was a little thrown by the ending. Connor and Gar are ridiculously adorable together, and it was a laugh watching the super hero fan boy mentoring the boy who knows nothing about anyone whatsoever.
Starfire dealing with Blackfire was very interesting. Iām not sure how to feel about that character yet, but I really hope a third season can flesh out that dynamic because the episodes that we have left have too much to do with concluding the Deathstroke arc and digging down into the Luthor subplot to give this brewing feud justice.
The Slade/Dick conversation was probably the best part of the entire episode. What I donāt get though is, what is the deal with Rose? How on earth does she connect to Slade and his family with Jericho and his mom? How did she even find out about him? Thatās my biggest peeve at the moment. I hope that the next couple of episodes will address that, because that in my mind is the biggest plothole.
Altogether a great episode. Nice to see a bit of the fallout, and it was wonderful to finally get a Gar-centric episode. I hope that they do more with his character, because Gar is the coolest!

One thing that bugs me is how long itās taking to put the team together. They had the first season for that, but it continues into season 2. Too many Titans and way too much drama. The 2003 cartoon show had the right idea. It dispensed with backstories for the most part, and just went straight into the adventures. We all know who the Titans are. We could learn on the fly how they are different from ācanonā just as we did in the old show, without all the hours expended on flashbacks.
Or take Young Justice, after a few episodes in Season 1 everything was set and it went in the adventures. Weāre approaching the end of season 2 and to be honest the Titans havenāt done much of anything thatās heroic, except Raven defeating Trigon

I loved this episode. The character development was great. I loved the Connor and Gar scenes and no, Gar canāt demonstrate his skills in public because heād ruin his clothes. Too bad Connor didnāt get it about the cops. I agree that Ellisā sister has the making of a great super villain and Iām much more afraid of what she would do to Dawn than what Blackfire would do to Kori- not that what happened to Faddeh wasnāt horrible. Blackfire just seems petty compared to Ellisā sister.
I bet everyoneās right that Jericho is inhabiting Slade. I think when he lived in Slade in the comics it was more of a Symbiosis than when Jericho used to take over people entirely. It must be Sladeās training and chemical makeup that keeps him more himself. I really donāt trust Mrs. Wilson. She appears to know about this, but I guess having to live with my ex because heās been melded with my kid would make me a little resentful and wary, too.

This season is dragging too much just like it was last season. Also, Iām tired of the Titans so easily killing at the drop of a hat like with āStarfireā (should be called Earthfire since there is nothing alien about her) killing her lover while heās under her sisterās control. And that is not counting my criticisms from the other post I commented on.

Okay, I finally figured out the Spoiler Tags. (Thanks, @Kelex!)
So this is a pretty HUGE Spoiler, affecting the rest of the season, so beware!
Last chance ā¦
When Dick confronts Deathstroke at Adelineās house, and Slade spins around to face him, watch Sladeās hands. He signs āhelpā in American Sign Language. Iām now 100% convinced that Jericho has been living in his fatherās body for years.
Yeah, I know! So subtle, but itās such a perfect little detail/hint/Easter Egg.

I completely agree. Whereās all the Titan action like season 1? Why is it getting so gloomy and dark and everyone has a hit on their head by someone or another! The teamās comradery and ass kicking skills?
Iām thinking the animated version had more passion and thrill!

I totally agree. I had all but forgotten the fact that Gar, Rach and Connor were a thing. To be honest, I may have enjoyed the last few episodes showing the old Titans. Iād be down for that show lol
This season has a lot of good aspects, but if youāre going to use so many flash backs, zap back to present day to keep the viewer engaged with ALL characters.

Iām going to preface this by saying Titans is by far my favorite TV show rn. But this episode really had me feeling down, there was way too much going on at once, and at the same time too little with each individual character. I feel like if I were able to binge the series this would be a great set-up for next episode, but itās left me feeling so unsatisfied and worried for the rest of the seasonā¦ Everything is taking so long to happen, I just want to see the Titans be a team /: i wouldāve thought they wouldāve become a team in season 1, but here we are nearing the end of season 2 and theyāve already all split up AGAIN. I will remain very hopeful for the rest of the season, but this week Iām very dissapointed /:

Same. Personally I left mixed on Season 1 but with Season 2 itās been a lot better imo. With the exception of the premiere and now this episode I thought every other episode has been good/great. The editing, cutting back and fourth between everyone and not cutting back like with Rachel, random stuff happening, certain things not making any sense was all a huge step back for the show but hopefully next episode is better. Iām usually against spin-offās but with this show it seems too difficult for them to balance their characters so having a spin-off would help with that.

He attacked security because that was the best way that he could isolate himself from the titans to ensure their safety from deathstroke.

OH- youāre right. I was just re-watching some of the Hank & Dawn episodes since other sites I was asking no one had a good answer to it. I completely forgot about that line Dawn said to Dick in episode 2 of Season 1. Edit: Yup, just watched the rest where they got the big bag of $$$ lol
I hate that I have to wait until Friday for the next episode. It always seems to end on a cliffhanger. Iām wondering whatās going to happen with Superboy now that he is a fugitive.

Did anyone else notice that Jericho being alive is the reason Dick stayed alive? Because in reality Deathstroke wouldāve killed him if Jericho didnāt walk away right then and there as his dad

I am questioning whether or not they are using Jericho. Some of the things the characters do makes sense like Dick beating up the cops to be isolated from the rest of the Titans so they are safe from Deathstroke. However, some characters are doing unreasonable things like Hank breaking up with Dawn and Raven just taking off by herself.

Still enjoy the show, but the budget limitations are starting to become hard to ignore. Thatās why so much of the plot involves people standing around talking to each other. And Beast Boy is as limited as I suspected he would be when they first announced the show.

I enjoyed Dick in this episode. I hope after this path of redemption he will be ready to don the name nightwing. The team has broken up yet again. People are going to lose interest if they never get a Titans team fully costumed. Almost the end of season 2 and we have never seen them suited up outside of the flashback of the old Titans. This isnāt smallville so get on with it. I love what Raven said to Donna but the way she exited was confusing and not done well. Hank and Dove was on the verge all season to breaking up so glad that happen finally. Not sure what the plan is with Connor but it makes sense how Gar reacted. He needs a leader and guidance. Hopefully he starts using his powers because they are dragging it out. Not sure what will happen with Starfire in the future but not enough episodes for everyone to be doing solo things.
