Terra's first episode is great. Though, looking back at it is a depressing experience, considering how this storyline ended, or rather didn't end, it kind of ruined the previous episodes a little, for me. But forget about the series finale, this is still one high quality episode. Terra has awesome powers and the training scene is the best one in the episode. Slade returns, obviously he has evil intentions toward Terra. Beast Boy's crush on Terra is sweet, but again, the last episode makes this tough to watch.

The action is as usual great, and I say this every time, but that's just because it delivers so consistently cool fight scenes. Slade is such a creep, he is very rough with Terra and doesn't care the slightest if he hurts her. One thing I didn't like was the ending, Terra just runs away because Robin knows she can't fully control her powers, she's willing to give up friends and a home for this, paperthin excuse if you ask me, but okay, she's young and sensitive.

"Terra" is a good episode, I can't lie, the final episode in the series has ruined it a little for me, but it's still very entertaining.moreless

I love Terra so much and i hate Slade for trying to take her away from the Teen Titans.....the beastboy/terra romance was nice and cute and touching
and robin should of been quiet!Well this starts the ever-so-famouse Terra and The Judas Contract Ark.

It was an ok way of first bringing out Terra.

So basically the titans find a new girl named Terra. She seems as if a hip young girl who can control earth well, but that's not the case as Beast Boy finds out. She is really a not so good manipulator of earh, and has run away from homes that she has grown accustomed to several times. When the titans let her in thier loop, only Raven senses the real danger, but decides against it. After a fight Robin figures her powers out and Terra runs away to Slade, not knowingly of course. I thought it was a good way to bring out Terra's character, but it lacked a little something. That's my review.moreless

Terra appears with a secret: she cannot control her powers. Slade uses this to trick her but in the end she runs away, trusting nobody.

Terra is a really suitable girl for Beast Boy compared to Raven. She appreciates his jokes and is far prettier. However, she is not by his side for long, thanks to the devious Slade. This episode is really super and it gives the viewers a lasting impression of misunderstanding, trust and self-consciousness. I think Slade will do something to Terra before long and she will reappear, maybe as his new apprentice or something. Well, this indeed makes up for the daft portrayal of Beast Boy in Every Dog Has His Day. He is now more mature and gentle to girls, yippee!moreless

PLOT IN SHORT: on the desert the Titans meet a mysterious girl Terra and Beast Boy is instantly charmed by her. As it turns out, she has the ability to control the earth and so the Titans ask her to join them. And it seems that she won't have to wait too long for her first action as Slade appeared yet again. What is he planning? Will the Titans stop him? And what's Terra part in all of this?
I must admit that the plot of this episode isn't one of my favorites, but deffinately this is one of the more important episodes (especially for season 2) as well as one of the more serious ones. Plus, besides RobinxStarfire seen so far, this one shows another romance blooming among the Titans.moreless

Trivia
ADD TRIVIA
- How could Slade possibly watch Terra on his screen? At least when he watched Robin it was around a building, or a place where there were security cameras. But with Terra she's running in the wilderness where there are no cameras. Besides how did he know she ran away from the Titans, unless he has the tower watched...? Edit
- During the fight with Slade and Terra, the orange/red side of Slade's face seems to switch places with the black side. Edit
- During the fight with the Sladebots in the quarry, the part of Robin's cape that should be black is white in one scene. Edit
Notes
ADD NOTES
- In the comics, Terra was from a fictional country called Markovia, however, she speaks with an American accent. Edit
- This episode along with "How Long Is Forever", "Every Dog Has His Day", "Only Human", "Fear Itself" and "Date With Destiny" was released on DVD as Teen Titans: Fear Itself. Edit
- Opener: A girl is running away from a huge crab-like creature. The Titans attempt to rescue her, but she stop him on her own. But, unknown to the Titans and this girl, Slade was watching her as well. Edit
Quotes
ADD QUOTES
- Slade: (To Terra) I can help you, child! Terra: You can? Slade: Right now you are... rough around the edges. You need more than obstacle courses to overcome your problem. You need a teacher, a mentor! Come with me, Terra, and I will teach you how to shine! Edit
- Raven: (After realizing Terra uses their sink to wash her clothes, a bit furiously) Well, she seems... comfortable. Edit
- Robin: (To Terra) You mean you don't have a home? Terra: The Earth is my home! Edit
Allusions
ADD ALLUSIONS
- Judas Contract: Judas, one of the 12 Apostles
  This arc of the Teen Titans was named after one of Jesus Christ's Apostles, Judas. Judas was imfamous for betraying Jesus, just as Terra will betray the Titans. After the Last Supper, he led Jesus to Gethsemane and identified Jesus to the soldiers by kissing him. Judas was given 30 pieces of silver as a reward for Jesus' arrest. But Judas later had remorse for his actions and committed suicide to repent just as Terra will at the end of season 2. Edit
