Driver's Ed

"Driver's Ed" is Teen Titans Go! Season 1, Episode 2a, and the third overall episode of the series.

Summary
Robin gets his driver's license suspended after wrecking the Batmobile and must take a Driver’s Ed course. What Robin doesn't know is that his driving instructor, Ed, is a robber that has some sinister tricks up his sleeve where he uses Robin as a getaway driver.

Plot
Robin tricks the others to drive him around town for his selfish needs by telling them it's an emergency, causing Beast Boy to lose his game, Cyborg to lose some of his data, Silkie to get swollen up and a demon getting away. The next time Robin needs someone to drive him around town no one wants to take him. He tells the others that his license is suspended after he wrecked the Batmobile, telling them it was a fender bender. He also tells them he met a guy on the Internet that can get his license back. Cyborg, because of his data loss, doesn't recognize Starfire. Raven warns Robin that she does not think this is a good idea.

Robin goes where his instructor told him to meet. On the car window there was a paper that said to start the engine. A man exits a bank that was robbed with a bag of money, puts the bag in the trunk and gets in the car. He introduces himself as Ed his instructor. Ed gives many deductions to Robin during his test, causing him to fail. Robin takes the test again multiple times, but ultimately fails becuase Ed keeps using him to rob banks. One day, the Titans are at a cafe and notice Robin in front of a jewelry store when he was supposed to meet his Driver's Ed instructor. Ed robs the store and gets in the car. Raven tells the others that he is his getaway driver. Starfire tells the others that Robin must not know that he is. They decide to chase Robin to warn him about Ed. Robin notices them, but thinks that they are going to make fun of him, so he speeds away from him. Later, after a wild chase (with Cyborg at the wheel of the T-Car), Robin stops the car and Ed gets mad at him for his wild driving and tells him the truth, and tells him the reason he kept failing Robin is to keep him as a getaway driver. He also said he never wanted him as a getaway driver again. Robin tells Ed he knew, and that is why he didn't tell him about the Demon that is behind him. The Demon drags Ed into its dimension and all is back to normal as Robin celebrates his success for passing the driving test.
