Synopsis:

Donna is touched by Goth, who recoils in shock. Starfire produces a polaroid taken of her and Goth, in which Goth does not show up. They convene with the guys who share their own findings about the movie star, and the whole group decides to attend a horror convention at which he is a guest. Goth and his fans start up a chant, at the climax of which everyone who has signed a book he carries disappears, including Starfire. The others then rush to sign the book, and all are transported to Dis, except Troia. In Dis, Goth claims that he is giving the kids a better life, one where they don't care about anything, but the Titans, once overcoming this apathy themselves, are able to remind the kids of the things they care about and get them out of hell.
