Plot
TBA

Trivia
The Titans intentionally destroy the Hives' 401k cash. It is a federal offense to deface/burn cash in the United States, so the Titans should have gotten in big trouble.
This is the third episode in the series to not focus on any of the Titans whatsoever. The previous ones being "Brian " and "The HIVE Five ".
The fourth wall is broken when The Brain says that the Titans’ dialogue sounds like it’s written by middle-aged men.
Continuity
Raven is seen unhooded for the 122nd time in the series.
This is the seventeenth episode to directly reference events from previous episodes, although it’s more vaguely in this case.
The Titan Robot from "The Left Leg ", "Love Monsters ", "Booty Eggs " and "The Cast " returns.
The villains share their sad stories which were callbacks to previous episodes, such as "Waffles ", "Caged Tiger ", "Shrimps and Prime Rib ", and possibly “Finally a Lesson ” when they talk about 401Ks.
This episode basically explains the intent of their plots from their respective episodes:
Brother Blood wanted to uses the Titans Tower ’s defense systems to stop an incoming meteor from hitting Jump City.
Dr. Light intended on using the Mysterious Prism To put on a light show to raise money for the orphans.
The Brain’s power generator was meant to fix a power outage for a soccer field so the children can have their soccer match.
Gizmo’s story is the only one to be completely new, as the H.I.V.E. was never shown cashing their 401Ks in a previous episode. In fact, Gizmo says this happened "just last week".
Dr. Light declaring to only use his powers for good before getting beaten up by the Titans is exactly the same that happened in "Caged Tiger ".
Starfire wears her businesswoman outfit from "Business Ethics Wink Wink ".
Beast Boy wears his "kiss the cook" apron from "Shrimps and Prime Rib ".
Robin wears his green coat, yellow shirt and red tie suit from "The Mug ", but with an extra pair of glasses.
References
The ice cream cups have the names of some Joker actors, Mark Hamill , Jared Leto , Joaquin Phoenix , and Heath Ledger written/printed on them.
The sprinkles used for the ice cream are "Pepper Jack Nicholson", who was the the original actor for Joker in the first Batman movie.
Errors
Although the villains are revealed to have had good intentions in their plots, the episodes that are referenced contradicts this in a couple of ways:
Brother Blood never actually informed the Titans of the incoming meteor directly nor did he ever visit the Titans Tower to do so, as their encounter took place in the warehouse instead.
In the beginning of "Colors of Raven ", Dr. Light blew up the museum, and there were no citizens in sight. He was also never shown putting on a light show, nor does he ever declare to use light for good and entertainment.
The Brain is the only exception to this, as he states that his plan was for world domination both times.
It’s possible that what is shown in this episode was meant to be how the villains viewed their situations instead of what was shown to the viewers. Whether or not the events from the previous episodes actually happened is uncertain.
