Synopsis for "Iliads and Oddities"

At the behest of Maxie Zeus, Robin contacts Oracle and keeps her talking long enough for her to trace the phone number. When one of Maxie's henchmen questions the sense of this measure, he has him killed. Meanwhile, Ariana finds that her new look leads a guy from school to force himself on her. With the help of a security guard, Robin stays out of Maxie's way until the police arrive. Later, when he sees Ariana, she has returned her hair to its normal color and is pleased to learn that Tim prefers it that way.
