"Curse of the Booty Scooty" is the forty-eighth episode in the fifth season of Teen Titans Go!, and the two-hundred-fifty-seventh episode overall in the series.
When Robin Booty Scooty’s his butt off, the Titans must go on an adventure to recover the lost booty.
Plot[]
The episode starts off when Robin shouts out to the Titans (well this is like from Booty Scooty) and the Titans guess that various projects are building on their island. But Robin just wants to get in, which the others emphasize he needs to do the Booty Scooty. As the Booty Scooty Dance starts, the others think he should dance his butt off, until Robin scoots too fast as his butt flies away.
His butt is dropped into the sewers so Robin asks the Titans to help him, which they refuse. But if Robin can't have a booty, they realize they won't be able to see the Scooty, so they changed their minds, and ride their bikes to the cave. As they are inside, they hear the Freak again, which Beast Boy tells the Titans that he has wrecked up his room so he sent him back down. Robin asks the Freak that he will lead them to his butt. So, during their journey, they venture through skeletons referencing twocartoons.
Later, they get attacked by some bats, as Batman appears on top of Starfire. They manage to escape the cave, while Freak finds a booby trap, and Beast Boy gives Freak a turnip. Beast Boy then comes up with turnips in replacement for Robin's butt. They succeed as Beast Boy says goodbye to Freak.
The Titans get inside the booty cave, and find a treasure box containing butts. Robin even manages to find his booty and puts it back into place. They collect a few more butts, and another Rube Goldberg follows. They escape the cave with the help of butts and Freak.
The cop comes and the Titans recap all the events that happened, when Freak manages to escape the cave with a ship made out of butts. They know what Robin has to do, just so he can enjoy his buns, and force him to do the Booty Scooty again, this time with the cop and Freak. The other Titans laugh at his humiliation as the episode ends.
As stated by Beast Boy, the last time Freak stayed at the tower, he literally wrecked Beast Boy's room. Therefore, Beast Boy has to chain him and relocate him back into the cave.
The four other Titans apparently have set an unreasonable rule for Robin, which is he won't be allowed to enter the tower if he doesn't perform the booty scooty for their amusement.

References[]
Like its prequel, the entire episode is mostly based on The Goonies.
Two skeletons are seen when the Titans enter the cave which are eerily similar to Dora and Boots from the cartoon Dora the Explorer.
It is unknown why their skeletons were seen in the cave. One possible reason is because the show ended in the US with the season eight finale, Let's Go to Music School."
There is another skeleton in the cave which is in the shape of Wally/Waldo from the children's puzzle book Where's Wally/Waldo? which is created by Martin Handford.
Two more skeletons are Indiana Jones and his father, Henry Jones Sr.
A tribute to Stranger Things is paid when the Titans explored the cave where Freak lives.

Dr. Fate seemed to have lost his helmet in the booty cave...
