Robin starts working at an ice cream shop to get revenge on Joker's Gelato for denying him a free birthday scoop.
Plot[]
The T-Car is stuck on a bridge in a major traffic jam, and a heat wave is scorching the Titans to a dangerous level. To cool off, Robin suggests they get ice cream. The team plows its way through cars in monster truck mode to Mr. Freeze's Frozen Freeze, an ice cream shop. Cyborg wants to go to Joker's Gelato, but Robin hates the place; a while back, the Joker denied him a free scoop on his birthday. Despite his sore memories of the place, the Titans head to the Joker's shack.
As the team marvels at the flavors, Robin bursts in, angrily informing them that he's now got a job at Mr. Freeze's place. Raven and Beast Boy can't resist Robin's offer of a free scoop, but Cyborg and Starfire surmise that he's trying to run Joker's Gelato out of business. Robin is totally upfront about his plan for revenge, and he's got his first two customers. Disappointment hits Beastie and Raven when Robin only serves vanilla, and even more so when their ice cream melts after being forced outside. Cyborg and Star, now working for Joker's Gelato, yell across the way to Raven and Beast Boy to come get ice cream at their place—it's now a full-fledged business war.
The two Titans leave Robin's place and are entreated to wacky service and great ice cream. Exasperated, Robin calls in a crime alert to Batman, who arrives swiftly at Joker's Gelato in the Batmobile. But instead of stopping sales, he starts indulging in ice cream. Using a drone, Robin brings back Rae and Beast Boy against their will to Mr. Freeze's shop, but he manages to entice them with a liquid nitrogen ice cream contraption. However, the machine catches fire, and Raven uses a portal to get herself and Beast Boy outta there.
A massive explosion causes the entire world to freeze over, and the Titans stand in the rubble of Mr. Freeze's Frozen Freeze. Despite their urging, Robin continues his quest for revenge, wandering off into the frozen wilderness. A pack of wolves descend upon him, and it looks like it's the end for Robin...
Gathered around a campfire in Joker's Gelato, the other Titans hear a howl in the distance—wolves! And their new leader is none other than Robin, now wearing a wolf skin and still crazed with revenge. The Titans desperately try and barricade the place, but the wolves break through the floorboards and drag Beast Boy down under. Raven is snatched through the bathroom toilet, and Starfire and Cyborg flee the ice cream shop, running into Robin. Cyborg offers him a free ice cream scoop to try and quench his thirst for revenge, and it does please Robin—but not enough, as he whistles for his wolves to attack... Later that day, Robin is enjoying an ice cream in Joker's Gelato with his newfound wolf friends, who all have full bellies.
Wanting revenge on Joker's Gelato, Robin says "[w]ell, cold is how revenge is best served," a reference to the famous quote "revenge is a dish best served cold."
