Meatball Party

"Meatball Party" is Teen Titans Go! Season 1, Episode 10a, and the 19th overall episode of the series.

Summary
When trying to entice Raven into joining a meatball party, Raven gives in and eats the half-meat, half-robot mystery meatball, cracking her tooth and releasing the demon octopus that lives in her mouth.

Plot
The Titans are sitting down and relaxing until Cyborg interrupts and shouts it's one of his Meatball Parties and shoots meatballs at them. Starfire, Robin, Beast Boy and Silkie were all pumped and enjoying it while leaving an annoyed Raven covered in meat. Next, Cyborg announced that the Mystery Meatball was going to be eaten by Raven and the other Titans cheered her on to eat it, but Raven just ignores them leaves. After some prodding from the Titans, Raven gives into peer pressure and eats the meatball. Being a cyborg, Cyborg made the meatball half metal as well, and it cracked Raven's tooth.

The next day, the Titans are hanging out again and Raven comes in, not saying anything. Beast Boy loves this and uses her silence to annoy her. Raven is only able to hold it back for so long and snaps, and yells at Beast Boy. Once she does this though, a bunch of tentacles come out of her mouth and attack the Titans until Raven is able to close her mouth again. They now all realize that she can't open her mouth and they say that she must see a dentist, but Raven refuses because she hates the dentist.

Throughout the next few days or so, Raven has to open her mouth at times and the Demon Octopus keeps attacking the Titans, specifically Beast Boy. Eventually, the Demon Octopus actually devours Beast Boy and that's the final straw for Robin, Raven WILL go to the dentist now.

The Titans wait outside patiently as the dentists attempt to get Raven to open her mouth. Once she does though, the Demon Octopus brutally attacks the dentists. When Raven goes outside to tell the Titans that it didn't work, the Demon Octopus quickly devours Robin. With that plan having failed, the Titans return to the Tower. While Starfire tries to come up with a plan, Cyborg inappropriately has another meatball party. This annoys Raven and she starts to yell at Cyborg and the Demon Octopus devours Starfire. Drawing pictures to communicate now, Raven tells Cyborg that's his fault because he forces her to do things she doesn't want to.

Having learned this, Cyborg tries to make it right by having Raven devour him willingly. Inside Raven's mouth, the Titans are fighting the Demon Octopus in the crack of Raven's tooth. It's not going well as the Titans are losing. Cyborg knows the only way to stop it is to seal the crack in Raven's tooth, which he does with a bunch of meatballs. Sealing the crack causes Raven to throw up the Titans. Cyborg now apologizes to Raven and says he won't force her to do anything again. However, the other Titans want another meatball party and the episode ends with Cyborg shooting an enormous meatball at Raven, much to her dismay.

Continuity

 * This is the second time that Raven was seen unhooded or without her cloak. This time, she was seen without her cloak. The first was "Laundry Day."
 * When Robin runs towards the black demon in Raven's cracked tooth to fight him, the animation of Robin running is the same as in The Date when Speedy disguised as Robin runs to Robin disguised as Speedy to fight him.
 * Two Pretty Pretty Pegasus doll make cameos in this episode. The series was previously referenced in "Legendary Sandwich", Dog Hand, and Super Robin.
 * The music that plays before Raven gave Cyborg the silent treatment is the same that plays in Ghostboy.
 * The frog that Beast Boy accidentally turns Cyborg into when he says Raven's spell incorrectly is the same one from Laundry Day when Robin gets trapped outside the Tower naked.
 * Music from Driver's Ed when Robin drives into the water returns after Beast Boy asks Raven to use her magic book.
 * Music at the end of Girl's Night Out was heard when Cyborg apologizes to Raven.

Errors

 * During the song She's Gonna Eat It, Starfire uses a contraction and shortens a word while singing. This is normally out of character, but wouldn't flow with the song if she said it like she normally would (she would more likely say "She is going to eat it").
 * In the "Meatball Party" scene, Raven had a book she was reading. But in the next shot after the "Eat! Eat! Eat the Meatball!" shot, the book is gone.
 * Silkie wasn't shown at the dentist with the other Titans, but magically appears with them in the following scene with Raven and the Dentist.
 * When Raven draws a picture for Cyborg a second time, the pencil she was drawing with disappears from her hand when she shows him. However, when she draws the third one, she holds the pencil, but disappears after Cyborg translates the drawing.
