Butt Dial
Kevin and Dinah took Robin to the living room and had him sit down on the couch, Robin taking off his Acme cap. Kevin then went to the kitchen to get out an ice pack and then came back. As Dinah tried to fix Robin's nose, she slightly chuckled, "I'm surprised you're not bleeding right now..." Robin smirked and replied, "technically us toons don't exactly bleed human blood. Sometimes we might bleed ink, but that's about it." Soon Dinah was able to properly put Robin's red nose back on his face. "There, good as new," said Dinah as she gently rubbed Robin's head. Kevin then carefully put the ice pack on Robin's nose and said, "here... this should help. Feel better?" Robin held the ice pack and said, "yeah, a bit. Thanks guys..." While this was going on, Tyler wandered into the living room, a case file in hand. She heard noises, causing her to glance up. Raising an eyebrow, Tyler closed the file and asked, "what happened to you, Robin?"
"Dick punched Robin in the face so hard, his nose fell off," said Kevin. Robin breathed in properly and said, "I got punched after I gave Cyborg the brownies Kevin made him. I needed to use the bathroom and I accidentally walked in on Dick having sex with Starfire. Looks like you were right, Tyler. And I saw some hickeys on Dick's neck." Dinah's eyes dilated into anger as she asked with rage, "he did WHAT?!?!?" Kevin placed his hand on Dinah's shoulder and said, "Dinah... Careful, we don't want you going into your Canary Cry. If that happened, we'd all get splitting headaches and the living room would be damaged... that would be bad." Dinah breathed in, doing her best not to let out her Canary Cry. But she was fuming nonetheless. "Are you bloody kidding me?!?!?!" Tyler growled, cracking her knuckles, "if I was Dinah, I'd use the Canary Cry on him too! I swear to God that I'll beat the living crap out of Boy Wonder..." Kevin shook his head and said, "look... I'm disgusted too. Does Barbara know, Robin?" The toon shook his head and replied, "I don't know if she does or not. I then said to Dick, you tell her or I will. And that's when he punched me. Now I'm conflicted. What do I do? You're not going to tell anyone for now, right?" Dinah calmed down enough to say, "this conversation will not leave this room."
Little did Robin know was that his cell phone in the right cheek of his pocket butt dialed Barbara and everything Robin said was said on to Barbara's phone. Barbara was about to answer until she heard Robin say everything he said. She held back sobs as tears rolled down her cheeks. Her boyfriend had cheated on her and she found out through an accidental butt call. "I think the best thing we can do is talk to Dad about this," suggested Kevin, "we could do something like an intervention and convince Dick to own up to his actions..." Robin nodded and said, "good idea Kevin. Hopefully he'll listen to all of you. Wait... Does my back pocket feel warm or something?" Robin got his cell phone out of his pocket and then looked to see that he had accidentally called Barbara! He gasped in horror. Tyler facepalmed as she heard Robin's comment. "Did you seriously just butt-dial Babs?" she asked him. Barbara couldn't respond, she continued to listen to the conversation though. Robin was starting to gasp like a fish out of water. "Well... Shit." Kevin said. Dinah placed her hand on Robin's shoulder and said, "talk to her." Robin spoke to Barbara on the phone and awkwardly asked, "Hey Babs... How, uh, how much did you hear?" He was scared beyond belief. "All... of it." Barbara stuttered out as she calmed down from all the crying, sniffling. Tyler and Dinah shook their heads. They both felt bad for Barbara, they really felt for her. Dinah felt bad the most due to her on-again-off-again relationship with Oliver, him being a womanizing playboy billionaire. Normally Tyler would boast and say to Kevin and Robin, "told you so," but she didn't feel like boasting. "Oh my gosh!" Robin cried, freaking out, "I'm so sorry, Barbara! I didn't mean for you to find out like this!"
"No, no, it's fine. At least I know before I get too attached," Barbara told Robin. "I promise, I will make this right," said Robin, "I gotta go. Hang in there." Barbara hummed in response, "I'll call you later, Robin." With that, she hung up on him before continuing her crying, hurt and heartbroken. Robin covered his face and said with complete guilt, "awww man! This is all my fault! Dick's gonna kill me! I sabotaged his relationship with Barbara! I knew I shouldn't have made that phone deal with Comcast!" Dinah placed her hands on Robin's shoulder facing him up front and sternly said, "Robin Warner, look at me!" Robin looked Dinah in her blue eyes. "I understand you're upset. But please listen to me. You did not sabotage Barbara's relationship with Dick," she calmly said, "Dick sabotaged his own relationship by cheating on Barbara." Kevin nodded and said, "it's not your fault, Robin." Tyler explained in reply, "they're right. Barbara needed to know. One way or another, she was going to find out. Sometimes it's better to hurt with the truth than to comfort with a lie." Dinah then gave Robin a comforting hug. Kevin gave a determined look and said "we're going to make this right. If not you Robin, maybe Kara. Because Dick Grayson made the mistake of cheating on my girlfriend's best friend." Kevin then got out his cell phone and called Kara. Less than a minute later, the Kryptonian picked up the phone and teasingly asked, "Hey Kevin. What do I owe the pleasure of your phone call?"
"Hey babe," replied Kevin, "Robin found out that Dick's cheating on Barbara. Babs found out through accidental butt-dial. You think you could bring Dick to Barb's place so that they can talk? We owe Barbara a lot." Kara was fuming. "I will- just tell me the location and I'll drag his butt there for a serious scolding," she growled, angry that her best friend was cheated on. Kevin then told Kara of the location of the Titans Tower which was where Dick was still at. "My only regret is that we won't be there to see Barbara give him a piece of her mind," chuckled Kevin. "Alright, gonna fly. See you later babe. Love ya," said Kara. "I love you too babe," replied Kevin as his girlfriend hung up. "Okay now that that's taken care of, the next thing you should do is visit Barbara," suggested Dinah, "get her some chocolate ice cream and comfort her." Robin stood up and said, "alright I think I'll do that. Thanks for the suggestion Dinah." As Robin stood up, Kevin asked, "mind if I help you?" Robin shrugged and said, "sure." Dinah stood up and said, "how about I take you boys to the store myself. Hop on my motorcycle."
"I'm gonna check up on Barb before heading to The Clocktower," Tyler tells the two boys as she begins to leave the room before calling back to them, "can't let Kara have all the fun!" Soon Robin, Kevin, and Dinah left Wayne Manor to go to the store to get some ice cream.
