Young Justice: Rivals Conclusion

See Part 1, Part 2, and Part 3 here

EPILOGUE

INT. THE CAVE - HAPPY HARBOR - LATER

BATMAN stands before Robin, Zatanna and Superboy.

BATMAN
The police took Scarecrow into

custody. He has a cell waiting for him in Arkham.

Batman puts a hand on Zatanna’s shoulder.

BATMAN (CONT’D)
Your father would be proud of you

today.


Zatanna beams up at Batman, holding back tears in her eyes.

ZATANNA
Thank you, sir.

Zatanna wipes her eyes.


Batman turns his attention to Robin and Superboy.

BATMAN
As for you two.

Robin and Superboy look down at the ground in shame.

BATMAN (CONT’D)
Neither of you can be blamed for what

happened. You were manipulated by an outside force. It happens.

Batman’s eyes narrow.

BATMAN (CONT’D)
Don’t let it happen again.

Robin and Superboy stand up straight, heads held high.

SUPERBOY/ROBIN
Yes sir.

BATMAN
Shake hands.

Superboy and Robin shake hands.

ZATANNA
I better get to the infirmary and help

heal the rest of the team.

Superboy hangs his head in shame.

SUPERBOY
I need to go apologize to them.

Especially M’gann.

Batman nods for them to go. Zatanna and Superboy walk away together.

ROBIN
Hey Conner!

Superboy turns back towards Robin.

ROBIN (CONT’D)
No hard feelings.

Superboy smiles at Robin and continues to walk away. Batman and Robin are left alone.

BATMAN
You could have used it.


Robin turns to Batman. He un-clips a small metal container off of his belt and tosses it to Batman who catches it in mid- air.

ROBIN
I don’t want it.

Batman tosses the container back to Robin.

BATMAN
Someday you might need it. And Conner

will be the first to thank you if you do.

Batman reaches a hand out and lightly squeezes Robin’s shoulder. He turns away and walks into the teleporter where he vanishes.

COMPUTER (V.O.)
Recognize. Batman. Zero. Two.

Robin opens the container in his hand. A green glow lights up his face. He closes the container returns it to his belt.

FADE TO BLACK.
