Recap / Teen Titans Go S 2 E 18 Serious Business

Go To

The Titans persuade Robin that the bathroom is a place of fun and relaxation, but the bathroom itself states that humans abuse it; that the bathroom is a place of serious business...

This episode contains examples of:

  • Book Ends: The episode starts with Robin doing the "Pee Pee Dance" while waiting for Raven to get out of the bathroom, and ends with all of the Titans doing the "Pee Pee Dance" now that all of the world's bathrooms are gone.
  • Fear-Induced Idiocy: The bathroom catches on fire when the timer hits zero. The other Titans try to put it out, except for Cyborg, who just runs in circles screaming.
  • Gainax Ending: The episode ends with the reveal that every bathroom on the planet is an alien from a destroyed planet, who then all take off into space.
  • Potty Dance: Robin does the "Pee Pee Dance" while waiting to use the bathroom at the start of the episode. Cyborg even makes an entire musical number based on it.
  • Potty Emergency: The episode starts with Robin waiting for Raven to come out of the bathroom. The other Titans see him dancing in front of the bathroom and joins him doing the "Pee Pee Dance".
  • Potty Failure: Robin is implied to have had one by the line "Too late! Gotta grab a mop" in "The Pee Pee Dance".
  • Serious Business: The Title Drop. Robin showed he feels the Titans spend too much time in the bathroom (due to constant Potty Emergencies) to the point that he put a timer that would explode if someone didn't get out in five minutes.
  • Singing in the Shower: One of the ways that the other Titans show Robin how to goof off in the bathroom is by pretending toothbrushes are microphones and rocking out together.
  • Why We Can't Have Nice Things: When Robin is finally convinced to goof off in the bathroom like the other Titans have been doing, he overindulges and spends an entire day in one, causing bathrooms to reveal themselves as sentient and deciding that humanity as a whole has lost their bathroom privileges.
