* ArsonMurderAndLifeSaving: The Team is chewed out by Batman for numerous mistakes that complicated an otherwise simple recon mission... and then commended for their adaptation to get the job done.



* OhCrap: Once the incident at Santa Prisca is resolved, Robin realises that since he wasn't the one chosen to be team leader, he is relieved that he doesn't have to report that the team went beyond mission parameters to Batman. This, of course, leaves Aqualad feeling a little unnerved about that impending encounter.

!!Episode 4: Drop Zone

Takes place on July 19 - 23

When [[AGodAmI Kobra]] and his followers take over the drug-making operations of Bane on the island of [[BananaRepublic Santa Prisca]], Batman sends the team in their first covert mission to investigate.

They discover that Kobra is turning the Venom drug into a SuperStrength-granting serum (using the Blockbuster formula from episode 2) for a special client - The Sportsmaster. However, the kids accidentally reveal their presence and decide to deal with the situation by themselves. This leads to a conflict over leadership that has Robin pass it over to Aqualad. The kids have to join forces with Bane, who betrays them in the end (but they deal with him). Kobra escapes when faced by the whole team. The Venom factory is destroyed, and Sportsmaster escapes with a sample for his masters, The Light, who decide that the teen heroes are interfering too much.

'''Notes:'''
* Kobra was a villain with his own series, created by Creator/JackKirby in the 1970s, and his group is not based on the Franchise/GIJoe characters (though it still might be a tribute when they chant his name.)
