Ludwig von Sournote is a crazed composer. He broke into the music library at Warner Bros. Studios to shut down the Telepix machine. He set off the Teen Titans' crime alert and conversed with them over the security camera. He told him his first name was actually pronounced "Lud-wich" and it was the 'John of Germany.' Robin wanted to cut to the chase. He revealed he was after the Telepix machine. The Titans had no clue what that was. He explained it was the machine that provided the score to their show and it put him out of the job. Cyborg stated entertainment was a tough industry. Sournote agreed and asked them if they knew how hard it was to be a composer from spending all his time to making music demonstrations and working on spec to land a gig only to lose out to a glorified mp3 player. He kicked it in anger then pulled its plug. The Titans were unconcerned but Sournote's musical magic proved too powerful and they got swept up in the score inside the Titans Tower.

Eventually, the Titans drove into the studio in the T-Car. Sournote guessed they came to tell him in person they enjoyed his score. Robin told him they didn't, stated they came to shut him down, and demanded the release of the Telepix. He refused and relished the impending fight sequence. He commanded the percussion, brass, and string instruments to attack. The drums were too powerful for Beast Boy and beat him into a wall. The strings were too nimble and deflected Starfire's starbolts back at her then whacked her in the head. The horns stabbed Cyborg. One caught his missile and fired it back at him. The woodwinds packed a punch against Raven. A bombastic bass blew Robin away. Sournote demanded their surrender. Robin admitted his score was too awesome. He was touched and thought they were going to use his score. Cyborg informed him there was no room in the budget but Robin knew of someone who would afford it. They set him up with Batman. Sournote thanked the Titans. Robin made a pun that the score was settled. The bass blew him away.
