Inside the Santa Prisca Venom Facility, the Cult of the Kobra takes over. But if one of their prisoners defeats their master's champion in hand-to-hand combat, they will leave. Bane steps forward and receives his dose of venom, which he uses to enhance his strength. A scrawny Mammoth enters the ring but is injected with Kobra-Venom which transforms him into a hulking beast. Bane and Mammoth face off. Mammoth gains the upper hand and then grabs him and tosses him to the ground as the Cultists then chant Hail Kobra.
Meanwhile, the Bio-Ship is on its way to Santa Prisca, as Robin reminisces the mission details Batman gave them.
Batman told them that "Santa Prisca, the world-wide producer of Venom has stopped all shipping of the product, despite the fact that the factory is producing the drug at full capacity. I want The Team to infiltrate the prison, investigate the situation, and report back to the Justice League. If the League needs to intervene, we will." They ask about a team leader but Batman sates that the responsibility of choosing a leader is their responsibility.
As they approach the first drop-zone, Aqualad activates his stealth-tech costume as Miss Martian puts the Bio-Ship in camouflage mode. Aqualad dives into the water and swims to the beach, where he places heat and motion sensors in their correct position and orders the Team to move in. Robin, Kid Flash, Miss Martian, and Superboy are about ready to descend as Kid Flash and Miss Martian activate their stealth-tech costumes. Spider-boy was simply wearing his traditional costume with black and gray instead of red and blue
"Superboy aren't you gonna try on the stealth-tech?" Kid Flash asks .
" I refuse to wear a costume, no CAPES NO TIGHTS NO OFFENSE."Superboy refused .
Miss Martian comments "that it totally works for him." The five descend from the ship and call Aqualad. Aqualad, who is scaling a cliff, tells them to head for the factory and he'll meet them there. They then set off for the factory when Superboy hears a twig snap
"I'm sensing something to." Spider-boy pointed out before vanishing with robin. Kid Flash puts his goggles on and switches them to thermal mode and sees two armed squads of guards or "armed bozos" as he put it, heading for each other. Once they meet, a firefight begins. Aqualad tells them to avoid the fight, but Kid Flash sees Robin trip and fall right into the middle of the fight. Superboy, Miss Martian, Aqualad, and Kid Flash arrive and save Robin. They take on the armed guards while Superboy takes on Bane.
After the fight, The Team finds out Kobra is now in charge of Santa Prisca, a detail that Batman didn't know about, which means that Kobra came and tossed Bane and his goons out. Kobra is hording the Venom and
"that we're not leaving until we find out why."Robin says He then gets into an argument with Kid Flash over who the leader should be.
"I mean a leader needs to take charge and lead not hide in a forest." Kid Flash exclaimed
"It's a stealth mission, Why am I and SB the only ones that get it?" Robin shouted back
"Sorry we're not all Mr. stealth your not Batman." Kid Flash returned
"I'm the closet we got." Robin replies They both continue to attempt to assert themselves as the leader until Bane interrupts. He offers to help them take down Kobra and to get them into the factory through a secret entrance. Miss Martian reads his mind and says that there is a secret entrance, but he's hiding something. Bane then offers his assistance again by saying that "the enemy of my enemy is my friend".
Kobra and a cultist stand on the balcony of the factory. The cultist claims he approaches. Kobra orders him to activate the radio-jamming net because no one must interfere. Meanwhile, Bane and the Team overlook the factory and Robin notes that the amount of Venom is shipped and ready to go. They come to the conclusion that a buy must be going down and need to find out who the buyer is. Robin and Kid Flash get into another argument over who should be leader as Bane shows them the secret entrance. He leads them into the factory. Robin leaves the group to investigate but a competitive Kid Flash follows him. Robin knocks out a cultist with a special batarang and accesses his computer Spider-boy follows him as they have similar styles of doing things. Miss Martian notices that they're shipping the newest Venom as Superboy hears a helicopter approaching. Robin and Kid Flash find out that Kobra-Venom is a combination of the Project Blockbuster formula and Venom. The helicopter lands and the buyer turns out to be Sportsmaster. Miss Martian floats above them in camouflage mode and sends a telepathic image of Sportsmaster to Aqualad. After receiving the image, he tries to contact Red Tornado and the Justice League, but to no avail. Bane tells them he has a plan and leaps off the balcony into the middle of the factory and knocks out two cultists. Aqualad and Superboy leap after him only to be attacked by Mammoth, who crashes through the window. Superboy takes on Mammoth as Aqualad fights off the cultists. While they fight, Bane escapes from the scene as Robin, Kid Flash, and Miss Martian arrive and help Superboy and Aqualad take on the cultists. While the rest of the Team battles the cultists, Robin goes after Kobra. Aqualad tells Miss Martian to establish a psychic link between the Team. He then orders Robin to return as they need to retreat.
Kid Flash runs ahead to clear a path but Mammoth and the cultists chase them into Bane's secret passage. Aqualad tells Superboy and Spider-boy to destroy the support beams and the tunnel collapses. Robin questions his failure on his first mission as leader. Aqualad hypothesized that Robin may be too experienced to lead a new team. Robin then suggests that Aqualad be leader. The others agree and Aqualad accepts, but he makes it clear that he will be leader until Robin is ready to lead the team. He then says that their first priority is to stop the shipment from leaving the island. Meanwhile, Sportsmaster attempts to start the helicopter only to find out that Robin sabotaged it earlier. A cultist suggests that they send a search party to find the Team, but Kobra says that they will come to them. As the Team reach the end of the passage, they find Bane planting explosives around the entrance. He plans to kill the Team and then the League will show up to avenge them and help him kick Kobra out. As Bane gets ready to activate the bombs, Kid Flash uses his super-speed to get the trigger from him as Superboy knocks him out.
When the helicopter becomes functional again, the Team attack, more coordinated this time. Sportsmaster attacks Superboy and Miss Martian. Kid Flash knocks out a cultist and takes his mask as a souvenir. Robin then takes on Kobra, but is no match as Kobra tosses him back without effort Spider-boy attempts to assist him but also fails. Aqualad electrocutes Mammoth as Sportsmaster takes off in his , unknown to him, Miss Martian planted a bomb in the helicopter and activates it. Sportsmaster loses control of the helicopter and is forced to parachute to safety. The helicopter crashes into the factory, blowing it up as tied-up Bane is forced to watch. Kobra escapes into the shadows. Robin then says that they chose Aqualad as the right leader (because he must now explain the mission failure to Batman).
Later, at Mount Justice, Batman berates the Team for their many failures on the mission, but congratulates them for their ability to adapt to a new plan and choose a leader, and assures them that the first mission is often the hardest for any team. Meanwhile, Sportsmaster reports to The Light about the events that happened in Santa Prisca. Sportsmaster managed to save a single vial of Kobra-Venom, but L-6 says that the formula can be reverse-engineered. The Light then states that the Team has interfered in their plans three times and must be dealt with.
