Line 10:
* "Haunted" in pretty much its entirety, especially the climax. Robin violently being beaten to a pulp throughout the entire episode is made all the more creepy when he actually begs Slade to stop, but to no avail. Seriously: [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSiGteEY-jk listen to the first 25 seconds of this vid with your eyes closed and tell me what it sounds like]. It gives [[Mind Rape]] a whole new meaning.
** What has been heard cannot be unheard.
* During the episode "Betrayal" Slade says and does things that suggest he's jealous of Beast Boy's relationship with Terra. He actually says, out loud, in one of the most bitter tones you ever hear out of Ron Perlman, "She never even liked you." This having to do with a girl who's thirteen or fourteen years old and a man who's older than forty. In another episode in that arc they give each other this "warm and fuzzy" look which is deeply unsettling. In the finale opening there's a scene where Terra swears her loyalty to Slade...and for all the world it looks like she's taking [[Squick|wedding vows]]. Just what in the world...happened...while Slade was training Terra?
** This is probably a [[Shout-Out]] to the ''sexual'' relationship the two had in the comics. She was 17 there, but still...!
* The creepy [[Subtext]] of Slade's partnership with Terra culminates in "Aftershock", when Terra disobeys Slade's order to fight and runs for her life from the Titans. Remember that when something is left ambiguous, fans always assume they're hiding the worst case scenario:
Line 32:
* In "Car Trouble" in the first scene of the third act Cyborg is sitting despondently on the curb, having failed to get his car back from Gizmo looks like he's been drinking heavily. Then Raven shows up, looks at the discarded cups, and says, "Fourteen milkshakes. Not a good sign."
** In the same episode, during the car race, it definitely ''sounds'' like someone in the cheering crowd is shouting, "Kick ass!"
* Más y Menos can very clearly be heard swearing in Titans East. They say "Y este viejo nos está jodiendo," the equivalent of "And this old man is fucking with us!"
** I believe they had to change the lines for the Spanish dub.
*** They did.
Line 49:
** Listen to what she says. Definitely crap past the radar, in my opinion.
{{quote|'''Blackfire:''' ''That's perfect Robin. Hold me just like that, and...''}}
* In Date with Destiny It is very clear that Starfire is using strange alien acupressure to cure Robin of his paralysis while holding him upside down. However, if paused at the right moment, a look on her face appears like she has clear view of his crotch. He is wearing tights after all.
* It seems that a couple of [[Big Bad|Big Bads ]] are having trouble watching their language. Luckly for the heroes, [[Curse Cut Short|they get their butts kicked before finishing the sentence. ]]
{{quote|'''Slade:''' You ungrateful little.... [Terra throws a rock at him.]
Line 66:
** Beast Boy asking Slade what he did to Terra and Slade saying "Nothing she didn't want me to do."
* First-season episode "Forces of Nature," where Starfire's been mad at Beast Boy all episode due to a prank [[Gone Horribly Wrong]]. The moment when they reconcile, he turns into a cat and jumps into her arms, and snuggles up against her chest...[[Gainaxing|mmm-hmm]].
* Now, all these years later, there are the Teen Titans Shorts. One of which - "Blackfire's Babysitter" - doesn't so much evade the Radar as much as it first kicks it a few times for distraction while the buddies casually creep by: First, Blackfire - who is not that much older than the teenage Starfire - is revealed to have children. Then those children turns out to be green blob-tentacle monsters like the one from the episode "Betrothed". That's because Blackfire married that one. That's the part where this short simply doesn't care about the radar: The example this entry is concerned with takes part at the end of the short, where Blackfire is assaulted by her own children. Blob-''tentacle'' alien children. The viewer is not shown what happens there, but are instead shown Starfire just looking on while Blackfire screams. And this shot is stretched just a little longer than necessary. The implications are sicker than [[Warhammer
** Let's not forget the 'Turn Back The Clock' one, where they managed to get Starfire's original Stripperific costume on display, even if only for 3 seconds.
