Episode Summary & Review
Summary
Young Justice tries to find a thief using the Haly International Traveling Circus as cover for his activities, by going undercover as trapeze performers, but find much more.
Our Take
A quiet, surprisingly emotional hour that puts Robin front and center, and the circus setting gives his backstory real weight instead of just winking at it. The undercover stuff is fun but the episode earns its high rating on character work alone. The mystery resolves a bit too neatly, though. Still, one of the season’s strongest, and worth making time for.
