10 Best Young Justice Episodes
2. Depths - Season 2, Episode 7
Depths come out of the gate swinging with the death of Artemis at the hands of Aqualad. Black Manta and the Light are trying to sabotage a Ferris Air rocket designed to promote outreach to aliens, and Audiences soon learn that Aqualad has actually been working as a mole to discover the true plans of the Light for the team, and that the rumors of Artemis’s death have been greatly exaggerated.
Not everything is as it seems and some lines are definitely crossed. This episode goes on to illustrate the team's true talents for deception and again sets them apart from other DC groups.
Wally, Dick, and Artemis hatch a plan that attempts to prove Aqualad’s loyalties to Black Manta while setting up Artemis’s undercover operation as Tigress.
This reckless strategy shows how far Nightwing and the core members of the team are willing to go as they convince the friends and family of Artemis that she’s dead. This white lie has some unforeseen consequences as the season moves forward and highlights how even the best-laid plans can still go horribly wrong when they involve double-crosses and secrets.
