TV commentary:

Young Justice- So all is finally revealed! During an induction ceremony for the newest members of the Justice League, Red Arrow, Dr Fate/Zatara, Icon, Atom, and Plastic Man, Robin gets an alert. Since the JL is busy, he and the team, which now includes Rocket, go to investigate a plane crash, which supposedly had Cheshire on it, along with the case she got away with a few eps back. Artemis is worried for her sister, obviously, so even though the whole thing was an ambush cooked up by Riddler, she's relieved to see Cheshire is actually fine.

The team tangles with those two, along with Shimmer and Mammoth and random mooks. They win, though Superboy uses up the last shield to defeat Mammoth in a berserk rage. For capturing everyone but Cheshire, and revealing Hugo Strange is a bad guy, they get kudos from Batman.

Since Lex knows Superboy used up his last shield, he telepathically contacts him, saying to meet at Santa Prisca. Superboy tells the gang he needs to "take care of something", and we cut to him heading to the island on his flying bike, where he meets up with Lex, Queen Bee, Mercy, Blockbuster, and Bane. To his surprise, Artemis shows up, saying she was tired of the accusations thrown her way, so she's back with her family, Sportsmaster and Cheshire. Miss Martian was also apparently separately called there, and they're all, "Woah, you're a traitor too?"

Only Connor isn't a traitor, and Lex sees through the ruse, utilizing the "Red Sun" psychic shutdown, and asks the others to talk business. As we see in flashback, right after he told the gang he needed to take care of something, he reveals his true parentage, and that half his DNA is from Lex. Turns out Artemis isn't a traitor either as she turns on the baddies, and continuing where the last flashback left off, after Connor revealed Lex is his "father", Artemis reveals her family of criminals, being the daughter of Huntress and Sportsmater and Cheshire's sister. But! Robin actually knew that already, and still implicitly trusted her.

Queen Bee tells Miss Martian to take care of Artemis, and it seems she does, but of course, we go into another flashaback, where Kid Flash jokes about being glad there are no more secrets out there, when M'Gan decides to take a cue from Artemis and Superboy and reveal her true White Martian form. Turns out, Connor actually knew her true form already, when they mind melded a few months back, before they even dated. So he never cared what he looked like.

So, in the present, its revealed Miss Martian removed Lex's fail safe, and Superboy was faking being frozen. Now that they've revealed they're not really traitors, the rest of the team shows up, and they tussle. Lex and Cheshire get away, but the team manages to capture most of the rest of them! So, victory!

Only, we cut to Watchtower, where Batman is studying the contents of the case. When it turns out Red Arrow was the mole all along! He slips a piece of the starfish onto the back of Batman's neck, and Batman is immediately taken over. We cut to see the rest of the league has already been turned. Batman beams up Vandal Savage, when Red Arrow suddenly comes to and realizes he was the traitor all along. Wait, I figured he was controlled by one of those starfish things too. If not, what was controlling him?
