Summary
The male Titans and the female Titans compete against each other to prove once and for all who is better-- boys or girls.

Plot
The story starts at the Titans Tower where Beast Boy, Cyborg and Robin are eating pizza while discussing about boys stuff such as football matches, race cars and begins to burp in front of Raven and Starfire in a unbehaving manner. While they're enjoying themselves after singing about their famous gender, Raven calls off the annoyance by smashing Beast Boy under a meteor. The boys starts to mock the girls for they believe that boys are better than girls. While Starfire does not have the knowledge for why they're judging genders, Robin explains that girls can never compete with boys because they are lying around thinking about having look and being emotional. However his theory turns to be vice versa when the girls claim that they are the ones who are lazy and spending much time on tidying their hair than them.

Raven begins to shout angry at Cyborg and Beast Boy making them crying for they might attempted to show up their emotional feelings. Still believing that boys are better than girls, Robin can go on and on about all the reasons to prove it, but he can summon up in just one word: Cooties. The Titans get shocked, as Robin claims that Raven and Starfire have cooties making Cyborg and Beast Boy to get on his side. However, Raven believes that cooties aren't real and if she thinks that boys are better, she and Starfire challenges the boys to a contest of speed, smartness and strength between genders, which they accepted eventually. The girls won the contest in all three rounds and zero for boys.

Meanwhile, the boys arrive back to the Tower, all wet after they were thrown in the air by Raven and Starfire in the last round. Cyborg and Beast Boy are now confident that girls are better than boys and how Robin lied to them about cooties. Just in case, Cyborg checks on them with his eye-scanner for cooties and they were all cootie free. Confused, the boys except Robin, were wondering what do they do most of the time, Raven tells them that she's reading spell books while fighting evil demons while Starfire makes glorbnog pudding with a saliva of a giant klatar. The boys are amazed of their actions and they decided to join the girls leaving the living room, while Robin plans to bring up real cooties for girls.

During the night time, Robin infiltrates the Top Secret Government Laboratory mainly in the hazard labs by stealth without being detected by security. He finds the cooties container and snatches a sample out of it in his tube. After he returns back to the Tower, Robin spills the sample right below each Titan girl's room doors for the night and starts his evil laugh loud enough to wake up Cyborg shouting at him that he's trying to sleep. Robin stops from laughing.

In the next morning, the Titans are having breakfast and starts again by mocking Robin for he's a boy, as Cyborg and Beast Boy are still enjoying with Raven and Starfire while singing the female gender song. Suddenly, their song has been interrupted when Starfire and Raven started to scratch themselfs repeatedly as they don't feel alone in their clothes. When Robin states it, Beast Boy and Cyborg believes him now that the girls got cooties when they appeared on their faces, scaring off the Titan boys. Raven blames Robin for his major mistake, while he admits it. And only he can get rid of cooties with his cootie catcher if they also admit that boys are better than girls. Raven and Starfire refuses, leading Robin to letting them contaminated. However, Raven states that if they are touching the boys they will be contaminated with cooties as well, making the Titan boys to shriek in terror and escapes the Tower. The Titan girls are chasing them downtown, but no matter where the boys tried to find a place to hide, the girls were always a step ahead of them. The boys get cornered in a bank vault and they get touched by the girls contaminating them as well with the cooties as they started to scratch repeatedly. Finally Robin admits his defeat and uses the cootie catcher, decontaminating themselfs back. After they got out of the vault, Robin trutly admits that girls can be superior to boys too, as he apologizes to them. Anyhow, Beast Boy claims that only a boy can make such an amazing speech in the end just like how Robin did as they attemped to sing again their gender song until Raven shut their mouths up with her demonic tentacles. It ends up with a "Show'z Ovah!" backdrop scene.
