Teen Titans (animation)/Recap/S1/E12 Apprentice Part One
Slade contacts the Titans to unveil what seems to be his master plan: a Chronoton Detonator. However, it proves to be merely a trap, infecting the Titans with nanobots that will kill them at his command, in order to force Robin into being his apprentice.
"Sending trouble your way, leaving cryptic clues for you to unravel. I was testing you. For some time now I have been searching for.. an apprentice. Someone to follow in my footsteps. And Robin - I've chosen you. Congratulations."
—Slade to Robin
