Synopsis for "The Great Race"

The story begins with two sports casters talking about a race between Kid Flash and Mas y Menos. Everyone is excited for the race with people taking sides on who will win.

At the starting point, Beast Boy and Cyborg are helping Kid Flash warm up while Speedy and Aqualad help Mas y Menos warm up.

Starfire announces the race's beginning. Mas y Menos shake Kid Flashes hand and wish him good luck. Kid Flash is slightly cocky in his response but wishes them good luck anyway.

Starfire counts down and the two start off. Kid Flash takes an immediate lead. The two teams begin by passing Titans Tower.

On Titans Tower, Robin announces the three of them passing the first checkpoint. Kid Flash passes Mas y Menos shortly after.

In Japan, the assassin known as Cheshire attempts to kill a man, only for it to be a trap by the hero Bushido. The two fight, but Cheshire beats Bushido out the window. Kid Flash catches the Japanese hero and stops to fight Cheshire. Kid Flash quickly returns with a defeated Cheshire. Bushido thanks Kid Flash as Mas y Menos passes him.

As the three continue to race, Kid Flash quickly takes the lead again. Cyborg, still at the start, notes that they are nearing the next check point: the Great Wall of China.

In their H.I.V.E. base, Gizmo roots for Kid Flash while Mammoth roots for Mas y Menos.

Kid Flash arrives in Antartica where he finds Raven at the checkpoint. Kid Flash stops to flirt with her, but Mas y Menos suddenly come out of nowhere and throw snow in his face.

Jinx, frustrated, watches her boyfriend Kid Flash flirt with Raven on live television.

The race continues with the three neck and neck. Kid Flash offers the twins some pistachios for energy, but they reject.

Later, in the Andes, Mas y Menos run out of breath and take a break. Kid Flash has a major lead.

Back in Jump City, Aqualad and Speedy are losing hope in their Titans East buddies. Speedy is frustrated that Kid Flash is practically mocking the twins now.

In London, Punk Rocket is terrorizing the civilians with his chaotic music. Luckily, Argent arrives and beats down on Rocket. The villain mentions how he "brought down the house" and a nearby building begins to collapse. Argent manages to keep the building up as Kid Flash arrives. He beats Punk Rocket and breaks his guitar. The crowd cheers for Kid Flash and the speedster begins to flirt with Argent, too. Mas y Menos then pass Kid Flash and the race continues.

Back in Jump City, the announcers are pretty certain that Kid Flash will win.

The three are passing the Statue of Liberty when Kid Flash begins to talk to Mas y Menos.

In Jump City, Starfire admits that Kid Flash has probably won, but it was fun.

As the race draws to a close, the fans wait in anticipation. It's...it's...Kid Flash! Kid Flash stands victorious in the stadium. Kid Flash is about to cross the finish line until an angry Jinx stomps into the center. She yells at Kid Flash for flirting with all the girls along the way when they are dating!

Suddenly, in the middle of their conversation, Mas y Menos run into the stadium and cross the finish line first. Mas y Menos won! All of Titans West and East congratulate their pals. Kid Flash is shocked to find out he lost and Jinx remains mad at him.
