The Date

The Date is Teen Titans Go! Season 1, Episode 3b, and the sixth overall episode of the series.

Summary
Robin is madly in love with Starfire, but after asking her out she says that she's going out with Speedy, whom she sees has a lot of similarities to Robin. To do so, Robin kidnaps Speedy and poses as him to ruin the date and win over Starfire.

Plot
The episode starts with Robin playing with a fortune teller and shouting in excitement. Beast Boy passes his door, but stops and wonders what Robin is doing. Cyborg later joins Beast Boy on finding what it is. They manage to steal the fortune teller from him. Cyborg and Beast Boy make fun of him for playing with "baby games" then play themselves. Both Cyborg and Beast Boy's fortunes were about Starfire, (Beast Boy: you will will marry Starfire and Cyborg: You and Starfire will have seven kids) then Cyborg checks all the fortunes. They ask Robin why the fortunes are about Starfire and he tells them the fortunes were for him.

After hearing a voice in his head and getting bad advice from Cyborg and Beast Boy, Robin asks Starfire to a restaraunt opening tonight which she declines because Speedy, by his luck, already asked her. Speedy walks in as a jealous Robin tries to convince Starfire that Speedy is wrong for her. She says she is only going because he and Speedy closely resemble auditory and physical features, hinting she may have a crush on Robin. Robin then kidnaps Speedy, dresses up like him and plans to ruin their date. As Cyborg and Beast Boy watch Speedy, Starfire is regretting going on the date. Cyborg and Beast Boy got bored and asked Raven to keep watching Speedy, while they go out and eat. Speedy then escapes, with Raven not showing any attempt to keep him tied.

Starfire on her date, tells Speedy (Robin) that she was wrong to think he was like Robin, and walks away from the date. As Starfire is leaving, Speedy (dressed as Robin) arrives. The two boys fight and Robin switches back into his original costume in time for Starfire to fall for Robin. Robin started hearing a voice and felt guilty and tells Starfire what happened. Starfire seems happy at first but punches Robin in the face for ruining her date. Just as she's about to bring Robin further pain the voice in Robin's head takes her out on a date as Robin lays on the floor disappointed along with Speedy knocked out, lying on the floor.
