And so it begins.
Titans, it's Crime Season!
Is there anything better than competing
with other superhero teams to stop the most crimes,
and smashing them into the dirt?
The answer is "No!"
I thought we just finished Crime Season.
We did, two weeks ago.
This is an all new season of crimes to stop.
But we're so tired, dude.
I feel like we've earned a hiatus.
It has been ages since I said hello to my atus.
The Teen Titans do not go on hiatus.
But other superhero teams go on hiatus all the time.
And that's why they always lose Crime Season to us.
Uh, crime fighting isn't a sport, Robin.
Of course it is. In fact,
it is one of America's greatest sports,
in which superhero teams
consisting of no less than three members
compete to see who will be the first
to stop 52 crimes!
I thought crime fighting was about justice or whatever.
Wrong!
The Teen Titans have won Crime Season
three years in a row.
We've got to keep that streak alive.
But we do not care about the streak.
Really?
Because if we won again,
I was going to throw you all a pizza party.
That you'll have to pay for.
I knew you would be excited. Now, let's get out there.
Titans, go!
Prepare yourselves, Titans, and remember,
together, we are unstoppable.
- Hey, Titans! - Oh, wha... Kid Flash?
I haven't seen you since I beat you in that foot race,
- fair and square. - You mean when you cheated.
What is... What is that? What are you doing?
Mmm. Sorry, excuse me.
I'm just, uh, enjoying these sour grapes you brought.
So what are you doing here?
Competing. I'm gonna win Crime Season this year.
But you don't have a team.
Don't need one. Super speed, remember?
I can do it all myself.
Boom! Just stopped 10 crimes.
- Okay, that doesn't count... - Ten more! That makes 20.
- As I said, that does not c... - 46!
- You can't do that! - 52.
I win. Wow, that was... It was really just easy.
This is Crime Season! Stop fighting crime!
You need to be on a team to compete.
And you do not belong to any team.
Okay, no problem. I'll just start my own team
and stop 52 more.
Ha! Good luck with that.
All the good heroes are already on teams.
Even I could barely find anyone.
These guys were the bottom of the barrel.
Hey! What's that supposed to mean?
Ooh, it is the highest of the compliments.
Only the good things are found at the bottoms of barrels,
because of the gravity.
Bottom of the barrel, baby!
There must be some solo heroes out there looking to join a team.
Doubt it! Now, if you'll excuse us,
we have to go win Crime Season again.
Titans, go!
Great job out there, Titans.
We're one crime away from that pizza party
you guys have to pay for.
So many crimes.
Ahh, you finish one, and then you think you can rest, but no.
Boom! You have to fight another crime.
Well, I'm done with catching bad guys!
I wanna catch some Z's.
Titans!
Come on, keep it together!
Look, we're at 51 crimes.
One more, and we win Crime Season.
The streak stays alive, and you can all take two weeks off.
Resting or spending time with the wife and kids or whatever.
Wake up!
Aw, man, every time we wake up,
he's still there.
I've already thrown out my back fighting all this crime.
Why are we killing ourselves to win this competition, Robin?
The streak. Don't you care about the streak?
- No. - Well, I do.
- Hey, guys. - wha...
What are you doing here?
I just wanted to say you were right.
I couldn't find any solo heroes to join my team.
Ohh, more sour grapes.
Looks like you brought enough for everybody.
Ew, dude.
Where'd you get all those rotten grapes from?
Mmm.
Oh, they're as sour as ever.
Disgusting!
Mmm, come on, guys.
Eat the sour grapes Kid Flash so graciously brought us.
Ugh! Get those away from me.
Mmm. Mmm! Ah, well,
looks like the Teen Titans have got this Crime Season in the bag.
Oh, I didn't say I was giving up.
I just need to recruit heroes that are already on teams.
Mmm, and why, uh, would anyone leave their team
- to join yours? - I don't know.
Maybe they're feeling unappreciated.
Boo-yeah!
Or maybe they're overworked.
Hey, you fixed my back.
Or perhaps they would enjoy some
quality of life improvements.
Ah, the chair of lounging.
Ooh, ooh! What do I get, Kid Flashy Flash?
Not to mention, on my team, I do all the work.
After all, I only need teammates to qualify for Crime Season.
Sounds pretty good to me.
Wait a second.
Hiya!
Hey.
You didn't just come here to deliver sour grapes.
You're here to poach my team.
I would never, unless they were interested, of course.
- Oh, we're interested! - Very interested!
What? Guys,
we're the number one superhero team.
- Three years running. - Yeah, but pizza!
- Back rubs. - The chair of comfort.
Uh, being ignored?
- So that's a yes? - It's a no.
I'd say it's a probably.
Are you serious?
I gave you your first opportunity
to be superheroes when no one else would.
What happened to loyalty?
The truth is, I can't do this without you.
The villains we've stopped, the cities we've saved.
It's because of you.
Titans, please don't leave. I need you.
You know what, bro?
It may be absolutely terrible to work here,
but we're not gonna go anywhere.
This is it.
Our 52nd crime.
We just need to foil it to win Crime Season.
And continue the streak.
Titans, go!
This is so cool.
What a perfect way to end Crime Season.
An epic battle on a train.
Can we just get this over with?
But aren't you excited about the train?
No.
Fine. Titans, stop Killer Moth
before he gets the toxic waste he's after.
This isn't my first train fight, Titans.
You'll never defeat me.
Too late, Titans.
Now grow, my pet.
Whee!
Grow!
Oh, crime season is the worst!
We can still defeat it, Titans.
We just need to attack it together.
Come on, let's do it.
Hey, Titans.
Is that a party bus?
With a tub of the hot comfort bubbles?
That party bus is on fleek, yo!
That's it. I'm joining Kid Flash's team.
The me, too.
What? You can't leave now.
In the middle of Crime Season, in the middle of a crime?
Come on, let's just finish off Killer Moth
and his giant mutant... Whatever that is.
- Ah, nope. - No, thank you.
You two won't leave me in my time of need, will you?
I would but I don't think he wants me.
Bro, you gave me a shot
and believed in me, when no one else did.
I'd be a monster to leave you now.
Thank you, Cyborg.
- That means so much... - Psych!
Yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, yo, I like hot tub!
Stay strong, Beast Boy.
We can still do this if...
Well done, my pet.
Now to destroy Jump City!
Sour grapes!
