Synopsis for "Beast War"
The architect behind Beast Boy's recent woes finally reveals herself. She is Gemini and she is the daughter of the late villainess Madame Rouge. She blames Gar as well as his allies in the Titans and the Doom Patrol for the death of her mother. Having captured Gar's old co-stars Tim Bender and Vicky Valiant, she intends on killing them to make Gar suffer even more. Gemini and Beast Boy begin fighting with one another, and Gemini's confederates Fear and Loathing join in the fray. Suddenly, Flamebird arrives sporting a brand new costume. Using evasive maneuvers, Flamebird manages to defeat Fear and Loathing by turning her foes' offensive capabilities against each other. Now its just down to Beast Boy and Gemini. Gemini tries to disrupt Gar's attention by shape-shifting into the form of his stepmother Rita Farr. This tactic fails however, and Beast Boy knocks her out cold with one solid punch to the jaw. Tim and Vicky are freed and Gar is cleared of all charges (much to Lt. Williams' lament). Later, Garfield, Bette and cousin Matt all move into an apartment together.
