While Starfire is away, the other Titans promise to take care of Silkie while she's gone. However, not long after, Silkie escapes Titans Tower and ends up going on a wild adventure in Mexico.
Tropes in the episode include
- Cardboard Prison: Silkie easily escapes the ball and chain he was hooked onto as well as slithering through the bars of the cage.
- Chunky Updraft: Starfire has this going on during her rage at the Titans for losing Silkie.
- Covert Pervert: During the search for Silkie, Robin's doing less searching for Silkie and more peeking into Starfire's belongings.
- Crazy Jealous Guy: Carlos, Sonia's ex-fiance, is this in spades.
- Dead Pet Sketch: The Titans try to use one of Silkie's shed skins to trick Starfire into thinking he's here when he's still missing.
- Death Glare/Glowing Eyes of Doom: Starfire has these during her rage at the Titans.
- Disney Villain Death: Subverted when Carlos goes off the rail. The next day shows him hanging on a branch, only to be picked up by an eagle.
- Early Installment Character-Design Difference: The first episode to show Batman and Commissioner Gordon, both of whom look considerably different than normal.
- Eyes Always Shut: Carlos has these except for recoiling in jealous rage and when he goes off the balcony attacking Silkie.
- A Glass in the Hand: How Carlos reacts to seeing Silkie snuggling up to Sonia.
- Gratuitous Spanish: Sonia's fight with her ex-fiance Carlos is in Spanish.
- Gravity Is a Harsh Mistress: Once Carlos looks down after missing Silkie, he falls down.
- The Greatest Story Never Told: Silkie's adventure is this, primarily cause he can't speak.
- The Guards Must Be Crazy: Carlos's guards were more concerned with having an arm wrestling match to notice Silkie escaping under the bust of Carlos.
- The Napoleon: Carlos is shorter than his own tall and muscular guards.
- Never Got to Say Goodbye: Played for laughs when they find Silkie's shed skin.
- Ocular Gushers: Sonia has these as she watches Silkie leave.
- Paper-Thin Disguise: Beast Boy's idea of turning into Silkie is a good idea...until Raven points out that he's green. Silkie also has this as he carries a bust of Carlos on his back, able to sneak past the guards.
- Please, Don't Leave Me: Sonia has this reaction as Silkie sails off back home.
- Serial Escalation: The milk mustache competition between the Titans except Starfire.
- Shout-Out: One of Robin's milk mustaches turns him into a Mario Expy, including a coin block.
- Squick: During the milk mustache competition, Beast Boy squirts some ten-year old curdled soy milk into Cyborg's mouth after he destroys his milk beard.
- Unstoppable Rage: Starfire goes right into this when she learns the Titans lost Silkie...only to swing back to normal when he comes back home.
