The Titans pay a surprise visit to Nightwing, where they crash a take-away eating session with Clancy. They introduce themselves as friends of his from the police academy and proceed to embarrass him by telling a whole host of old stories (obviously without the saving the world elements) about him. These stories disturb Donna slightly, as she is still feeling somewhat unreal, ever since Dark Angel messed with her life.
Meanwhile, Chanda promises some fellow-Quracis that she will use the Titans resources to help them gain revenge on Cheshire, who nuked their home-land's capital city. And Elsewhere, Darkstar Donna Troy approaches Titans Tower but is not recognised by her team-mates.

Synopsis:
Markovian scientists are carrying out tests on Terra to discover once and for all whether or not she is the same person as Tara Markov, the sociopath with earth-powers who betrayed the Titans. In many ways she hopes that she is her own person, but when the results come through, she cannot face opening them. Geo-Force, the original Tara's half-brother and the ruler of Markovia opens them for her and tells her that she can be whoever she wishes, she isn't Tara Markov. This, however, is a lie, as Geo-Force does not think she'd be able to cope with the truth that her DNA is an exact match.

Even more leave when it comes time to clear up, but Bushido arrives from Japan and Matt Logan declares Titans LA to be official.
