Synopsis for "Like Puppets on a String!"
Changeling asks Robin to help investigate the murders of several Dayton Industries executives, which are traced to Green Lantern's old foe, the Puppeteer, now in league with the H.I.V.E. Meanwhile, through his robot puppets, Puppeteer takes control of Cyborg, Kid Flash, Starfire, and Wonder Girl, and turns them against their teammates. Eventually, Kid Flash can breaks his trance and then frees Starfire. Robin does some 'dirty tricks' to get Cyborg down. And finally, after Raven's soul-self breaks Wondergirl's trance, the Titans then unite to battle Puppeteer and his toy robotic army. When the villain is defeated, the H.I.V.E attempts to destroy him for his failure.
