"Robin, what is this?"

Under normal circumstances, Robin would have barely glanced over at Starfire before going back to filling his black hair with hair gel. But the tiny, struggling bug in Starfire's fingers caught his eye before he could look away. His eyes widened under his mask.

"It's a louse, Starfire. Where'd you find it?"

"What is, 'the louse', Robin?" she asked innocently, squeezing the bug between her fingers. She did not answer his question.

Robin took a deep breath. "Well, a louse is a species of bug that lives in your hair, Starfire. They...sorta suck your blood..."

"Like, 'the vampire'?" Starfire asked, staring at the bug. Robin, grateful to have something to compare to, nodded uneasily.

"Robin, I did find it in my hair," Starfire started. "I am... Infected?"

Before Robin could reply, the two heard a scream from the other side of the tower, followed by a loud thumping noise. Beast Boy came running down the hall, screaming, "LICE! I HAVE LICE!"

Robin caught Beast Boy as he rocketed past the bathroom, still screaming. "What?" Robin asked. Beast Boy whimpered loudly and covered his head.

"Lice..." the changeling moaned. "Everywhere! Oh, my beautiful hair is infested!"

"Infested?" Starfire asked. Robin sweat-dropped. "What does 'infested', mean?"

"It means you have LICE!" Beast Boy screeched. "Now I have to purge my beautiful green mane! Do you have any idea how long that's going to take?"

"Beast Boy, you're confusing her," Robin scolded. "Starfire, I'm afraid you have lice too."

Starfire's eyes grew wide. "I have...the lice?" she asked, her voice filled with alarm. Robin nodded, growing wary. Starfire could be very powerful if she grew frightened or startled.

The orange-skinned alien swiftly lifted a hand to her head and shot it with a starbolt, singeing her hair and alarming Robin, who quickly slapped at it to keep it flame-free.

"What was that for?" he asked.

"Forgive me," Starfire said, voice quiet. "On my planet, we have the Zorkbacks, small parasitic creatures related to your lice. Shooting one's head will scare them off. I am sorry if I have startled you."

"It's ok, Star," Robin reassured her. "That isn't how we get rid of lice here on earth, though. We have to use shampoo."

"But I wash my hair with the shampoo every night. Would that not get rid of them?" Starfire questioned. She seemed incredibly confused.

"Special shampoo," Robin said. "I probably have lice, too, if you and Beast Boy have them. Why don't you get Cyborg to get the stuff while I check myself? He can't have lice, after all. He doesn't have any hair."

Starfire nodded and floated out of the room, leaving Robin with Beast Boy. Beast Boy, who had been crazily hopping around just seconds ago, was now standing stiffly, a terrified expression on his face. Robin, noticing, asked, "Beast Boy, what's up?"

"Well, I just had an idea," Beast Boy said, his voice tiny. "If Starfire and I have lice, then that means…" he shivered and gestured down the hall. It took Robin a second to see what he was pointing at, but once he did, he cringed.

"Oh God, why didn't I think of that before?" the boy wonder mumbled.

Beast Boy stared down the hall, eyes widened and alert. "I'll do it," he whispered. "I'll be back here in a few minutes." Shaking, he added, "If I get back at all."

Beast Boy began to walk towards the target, each footstep seeming shorter as he made his way down the hall. When he arrived, he slowly knocked on the door. It opened swiftly, startling the changeling.

"What?" Raven asked grumpily. "Some people need sleep, Beast Boy."

Beast Boy let out a squeak, but no words came out. Raven growled at him. "What is it?"

"Everyone in the tower has lice!" Beast Boy burst out, blowing Raven's hood clean off her head. The empath hopped backwards, covering her ears and glaring at him. "We think you do too!"

Raven's eyes narrowed under her hood. "Seriously?" she asked.

Beast Boy nodded. "Yeah… Robin wants to check everyone in the tower… He wanted me to get you…"

Raven sighed. "I'll check myself. If I do have lice, I'll find you. Is Cyborg getting shampoo?"

Beast Boy nodded again. "I'll be in the bathroom, comforting Robin about what he's going to do to his R-cycle helmet."

"I think it would be a better idea to help Cyborg with the T-car. He's going to be furious," Raven remarked, closing the door and leaving Beast Boy standing in the hall.
