When plant creatures attack major cities around the world, The Team is eager to join the fight alongside the Justice League. Instead, Batman assigns them a still more dangerous task – taking out the plants’ masters: a secret society of super- villains: the Injustice League!
The episode revolves around the Injustice League who supposedly "reveal" themselves as the masterminds behind the various criminal operations that the heroes interfered with insofar. However, this was but a mere stunt orchestrated by the Light to blindside the heroes and thus keep operating unsuspected. On the other hand, all the members of the Light are revealed to the audience.
Dick also mentions that the Brain used Kobra Venom to create an animal army, and by extent upgrading Wolf (as noted by Superboy). This happened in "Alpha Male."
Artemis vehemently refuses to drown "three missions is a row." She's referring to the siege of the Cave in "Homefront," where Red Torpedo submerged her and Robin under water, and in "Alpha Male" in which she was pulled into pond by a Kobra Venom-enhanced crocodile.
Kid Flash urges Aqualad not to put on the Helmet of Fate, because when donned it himself in "Denial," Nabu didn't want to let go of him. When Aqualad removes the Helmet he says he had help from Kent Nelson, which is how Wally was released as well.
Trivia
Batman refers to the Injustice League as a "Secret Society of Super-Villains", a super-villain team-up in the 1970s.
The Joker's first line "Admit it, you can't turn away" can be count as a breaking of the fourth wall moment. He did it again when he said "That last one (retributionable) might not be a word, so sue me!".
The Injustice League's headquarters resembles the Hall of Doom (the Legion of Doom counterpart of the Hall of Justice) from the Super Friends franchise.
Vandal Savage has a scar on his face that bears a striking resemblance to the scar that Demona gave to Gillecomgain, which later came to be the signature mark of the Hunters, also from Gargoyles.
Goofs
While Aqualad and Robin are sparring, Robin is given points for dodging when he simply jumps forward.
One of the three citizens that runs from the Joker venom is at first shown to be black, then shown to be white in the very next scene.
In Star City the school bus says "Metropolis School District" on the side.
