The Doom Patrol, sans Cyborg, ventures into the 'White Space' between the pages of a comic book, where Mr. Nobody gives them an opportunity to return to the lives that they left behind in exchange for forgetting the Chief. Meanwhile, Cyborg has a heart to heart with his father, and we learn a bit more about Mr. Nobody's backstory.
Tropes for this episode include:

- "Groundhog Day" Loop: After the team defeats Mr. Nobody in the White Space, they regroup to continue battling evil... except each time they face off against the Brotherhood of Evil's Giant Robot, they die horribly only for the day to reset itself. Eventually, The Chief realizes it's all a trap and that they're still trapped in the White Space with Nobody.
