In the Stop Motion Dimension, there is a fabled object known as the First Clay. It is a cube of precious prehistoric Plasticine said to have been used in the first stop motion ever made. It lies somewhere in the hollow woods. The Stop-Motion Animators offered to teach the Teen Titans about cost cutting so they don't cease to exist along with their show in exchange for getting them the clay. Deep into the hollow wood, the Titans came upon a weird statue garden but soon realized the statues were really victims of a Medusa who turned them to stone. Robin saw the First Clay. They attempted to sneak over to it but pretended to be statues whenever the Medusa turned from her work station. Beast Boy tricked the Medusa into looking at her reflection in Cyborg's shiny booty and turning herself to stone. The Titans returned to the animators with the First Clay but were stunned to see an animator toss it aside.
They revealed they had tons of the clay and it was really one of the "you tricked us into doing a thing so we'd learn a thing" type of thing where they did cost cutting choices without even knowing it. They decided to give Robin the First Clay and instructed him to use it in his hour of need. In the battle against Superman and his mech, the Titan Robot was nearly defeated. Robin remembered the First Clay and sent it to the robot's hands. It formed the clay into an energy sword and defeated the Superman Mech with it. During its victory dance, the Titan Robot tossed the sword aside and continued dancing.
