Synopsis:
The Titans compare notes after each experiences disturbing nightmares on several consecutive nights. Some of the members share the same dream, but in each one they face their own deaths. Raven links the Titans together to find the source of the nightmares.

A man calling himself Muse has been present in each nightmare. He was hired by the Children of the Sun to destroy the Titans. The group of heroes enter the dreamworld and combat Muse. Raven then orders them to retreat as the dreamworld collapses around them. Muse fails in his mission, but he claims to have won the fight because Starfire used all her power in an attempt to kill him, demonstrating her overly aggressive murderous tendencies.
