Teen Titans (animation)/Recap/S4/E05 Employee of the Month

""It's Meat-tastic!""

While the rest of the team tries to deal with an UFO that steals cows, Beast Boy finally cracks down and looks for a job to buy himself a moped, but the only place he can find work is a restaurant that serves nothing but meat (which disgusts him since he's a vegetarian.) Contains both the most absurd villain of the entire series, and possibly its most controversial moment as well as Cyborg ends up

Tropes:

 * Action Prologue: The scene of the Titans fighting off aliens just before the opening counts as this.
 * Alien Invasion
 * Easily-Thwarted Alien Invasion
 * Anvilicious: Eating meat is BAD!!!
 * Space Whale Aesop
 * BLAM Episode
 * Broke Episode
 * Everything's Better With Bob
 * Hey, It's That Voice!: - Professor Utonium as Bob and Yakko as The Source!
 * I'm a Humanitarian: Played with: Cyborg -by accident.
 * New Job Episode
 * Shout-Out: To Invasion of the Body Snatchers.
 * Throw the Dog A Bone: Beast Boy finally gets his moped.
 * What Could Have Been: The episode was born from two separate ideas; an alien invasion from and an episode where one of the Titans got a job. Among the concept art was Raven wearing a Hot-Dog-On-A-Stick uniform.
