Plot
'''***WARNING! THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS SPOILERS TO AN EPISODE THAT HAS NOT YET PREMIERED!!!***'''

The fire alarm suddenly starts to blast in Titans Tower. The Titans all begin to panic, until Raven figures out that the only problem is that the chimney is clogged. The Titans make Robin clean the chimney, even though he is the leader, it is his job. When he arrives at the top, he is disgusted to find two mocking birds inside. Robin orders them to leave, but they literally mock him. Robin decides to start sweeping them out, but they attack him and beat him up.

In the lab, Robin creates a special mixture of birdy-cide. Robin then goes to the roof, and poisons the chimney, causing the birds to flee. The birds hide behind some bushes, ashamed at their defeat. Suddenly, they mutate into two human-sized mocking birds. One of them turns blue, while the other turns orange. They begin to play music, which attracts the attention of the other titans.

Robin stops sweeping the chimney when he hears the other titans laughing and partying with the birds. The titans think the birds are super cool. Robin isn't able to recognize them at first, and introduces himself. They make fun of him for being a "robin without feathers". Robin asks them if they are mocking him, then realizes...they are the same birds he poisoned. The birds also realize that Robin mutated them. The two are ungrateful for their transformation, and attack Robin. Robin becomes jealous that Starfire falls in love with the blue bird. Robin warns the others that Mockingbirds are bad news, but they all ignore him. The birds enter Titans Tower, with the other titans following behind.

Later that day, The birds are doing impressions of other birds for the Titans in the living room. When asked to do a robin, they make fun of their leader, not the bird. Only Robin is offended by this, and the birds secretly tell him that he is dead meat. This causes Robin to run away.

Later, when Robin tries to enter his room, he is disgusted to find the birds in his room with a giant nest. The birds tell him that since he took their nest, they're taking his. Robin finally becomes fed up, and decides to move out of Titans Tower. The other Titans don't hear him announcing his exit, but the birds do, who tell them not to worry. The birds decide to throw a bird party, and invite hundreds of random species of birds over to party.

A few days later, Starfire and Beast Boy become very annoyed with all of the random birds. When one of the birds attacks Cyborg for simply eating an egg sandwich, the Titans draw the line, and decide the birds need to go. The alarm goes off again, and the computer tells them that the chimney is clogged again. The birds force the Titans to go clean it, and watch tv while they work.

On the rooftop, the Titans decide that Robin was right, and regret ignoring him. The Titans become shocked when they realize what is clogging the chimney: Robin himself. Robin grew a beard, had old wrinkly clothing, and went insane. The Titans beg him to help them get rid of the birds, and he doesn't want to help. They then ask him to lead them, since he is their leader. Robin finally snaps out of his insanity and bursts out of the chimney, his beard shaven, and his suit repaired. Robin excitedly yells "TITANS, GO!"

The Titans burst into their living room and get into their battle poses. The birds become disgusted that Robin returned, and the Titans attack. Robin is easily beaten by a bird, but Beast Boy transforms into a tiger and tackles him. At first the Titans put up a good fight, but after major destruction damages the tower, the birds begin to win, and pin down the Titans against a wall. When asked how he got rid of them in the first place, Robin remembers he still has birdy-cide. Robin hands it to Cyborg, who fires it everywhere, causing the birds to mutate.

The birds are now mutated into having giant brains, and are superior beings. They tell the Titans they no longer want to battle, because they have evolved to superior intellect, and know the foolishness of violence. Robin realizes this is his opportunity, and begins to violently attack the birds. The birds flee Titans tower, with Robin yelling at them. The Titans are glad to finally take back their tower.

Meanwhile, in Robin's room, we see the nest the birds made. Suddenly, one of their eggs hatches, and a bright light fills the screen.
