 This was just a forced way to ripoff the Family Guy episode, Vestigal Peter and make it the status quo because the writers loved Chip so much they wanted a Chip a Teen Titans Go!, guess what? Chip is annoying and how did they find him funny?

The Mask is the 17th episode of the 2nd season of Teen Titans Go!.
Synopsis
Robin's past is cloaked in secrecy, and even his mask does more than hide his true identity, it also serves to hide a terrible secret!
Why It Doesn’t Deserve To Wear The Mask
- This episode tries to horribly change the status quo of the show with little to no reason as to why. Details will be explained below.
- The entire battle with Punk Rocket is annoying and the entire battle can be cut because Robin losing his mask is what started the plot.
- The entire scene where the Titans try to take off Robin's mask and guilt trip him because they believe he has trust issues is very tiresome, and it takes up nearly 2/3 of the episode.
- The reason why Robin can't take his mask off is shown through a very poorly dubbed and edited clip of the original Teen Titans and it comes off as laughable and insulting.
- When the Titans imagine what Robin will look like without his mask, it ranges from weird to disgusting, Starfire even believes he has a vestigial twin growing out of his eye socket.
- When Robin "removes his mask", the Titans think he looks handsome, but really, he just looks like Handsome Squidward from the SpongeBob SquarePants episode, The Two Faces of Squidward.
- How did Nickelodeon not sue Warner Bros. for using the Handsome Squidward face?
- The cutaway gag where all the Titans are Handsome Squidward is stupid.
- The “battle” between Robin and the Handsome Squidward alien who wants to marry him is very cringy.
- Bad ending: The Handsome Squidward face was really a mask and Robin removes it, revealing that Starfire is right and his vestigial twin is obviously is a reference to Chip from the Family Guy episode, Vestigial Peter. Except the twin is in his eye socket, and like Chip, he’s basically a miniature Robin with a pitched up voice.
- Plot Hole: Since the Vestigal Robin can eat? How does he digest? Also, how can he breathe if he’s being covered 24/7? The twin should’ve been long died or made Robin gravely ill from defecatating (pooping) and urinating (peeing) inside of him all these years.
- This also poorly changes the status quo of the show because in Driver’s Ed, the cutaway gag shows Robin without his mask on, and he just has beady black eyes. And the vestigial twin becomes a mainstay for the status quo because he later was shown as a gross close-up in the episode, Beast Boy’s St. Patrick’s Day Luck and It’s Bad.
Redeeming Qualities
- The Handsome Squidward alien is nice change of pace because it shows that not all aliens have to look like colorful humans.
- The scene where Beast boy tries to take off Robin's mask is geniunely funny.
