Rita Farr tried to make it as a Hollywood actor but she kept getting cast in low budget movies where she ended up slimed. During the filming of "Forbidden Swamp," Farr got frustrated with her type casting. The director promised he would make sure it didn't happen in the next movie. Farr kept getting slimed over and over. She stormed off the set and cried at makeup. The Chief told her his machine could help her achieve her dream of making it as the biggest Hollywood star the world has ever seen. A giant chamber was produced from the back of his wheelchair. She was intrigued. He told she had to be willing to get a little extreme. She claimed she loved getting extreme. She walked in and asked if it was a movie prop. Chief explained it was a chamber that modified DNA and shut the door. Her DNA was merged with children's modeling clay. He molded her back into her human form. She stated she just wanted a new audition and turned two-dimensional by mistake. He assured her she was guaranteed to become the biggest Hollywood star the world has ever seen. She got to be the giant monster in the next movie then slimed Chief and the director.

Rita Farr took on the codename Elasti-Girl. She has the power of elasiticity to do things like increase her height and size to that of a giant or extend her arms to vast distances. She can also shapeshift. She tends to be very motherly towards everyone and prone to being gullible when they play tricks on her. One summer, Robotman got into a fight with Chief. Elasti-Girl reminded Chief and Robotman about the rules, no fighting on the lawn then placed them on the driveway. They slapped at each other. The Patrol soon realized Beast Boy was back. Elasti-Girl fawned over Beast Boy and smooshed his face around. She thought he looked thin and shoved some casserole into his mouth. Despite Beast Boy saying not to, Chief played a VHS recording about him doing alleged extreme moves with his wheelchair like grinding and getting air. Elasti-Girl ripped the monitor away. Chief rotated in a stationary circle and asked her if she liked that instead.

The Patrol got behind Beast Boy's idea for a clambake but their neighbor the Brain inquired if they had the proper permit. Elasti-Girl implored him to check with City Hall. Brain claimed he would. Elasti-Girl turned into a shovel and dug a hole at the beach for their clambake and discovered the Brain's cache of mutagen cannisters. They thought it was just trash and continued with their clambake. Superheroes began arriving but The Brain showed up with two police officers and they shut the party down because the Patrol didn't get a permit. The police arrested the Doom Patrol and Beast Boy and threw them in paddy wagon. Elasti-Girl wondered if Brain was right about them being degenerates. Beast Boy refused to believe that and pointed out it was Brain and his glowing garbage. Chief keyed on "glowing." Negative Girl told them it was radioactive. They realized Brain was trying to make a monster.

By the time they escaped, Brain was perched atop his cannisters. He created a giant clam monster with one of them and revealed his plan was to use the monster to bend the Homeowners Association to his will and get the Doom Patrol kicked out of Codsville. Elasti-Girl increased her height and mass and pried Brain's clam monster open. Robotman launched the Chief over the clam. A bundle of dynamite was dropped inside. Elasti-Girl shut it. The clam was blown up. Brain called them fools and took solace in ruining their party. Beast Boy got an idea and used the remains of the clam monster for the Doom Patrol's clambake. Beast Boy and Negative Girl were about to leave to hang out with crabs but The Chief and Elasti-Girl voiced their disapproval since the crabs pinched people and stole everything. Before they left, Elasti-Girl blocked the door with a huge hand and asked Negative Girl if she did her chores. She tried to delegate them to later but Chief stood to the rules. Negative Girl put on her act and pretended to feel sick.

Elasti-Girl fell for it and told her to go to her room and rest. Chief refused to do her chores. Negative Girl projected her energy form outside to Beast Boy and Robotman and they headed to the beach. The crabs turned on them and pillaged the entirety of the Doom Patrol's home while Chief and Elasti-Girl were out. Robotman elected to stay behind to fool Chief and Elasti-Girl while Beast Boy and Negative Girl tracked down the crabs' hideout. Robotman caved and told them the truth when they returned home. They set out to save Beast Boy and Negative Girl.

During a game of charades, Elasti-Girl got "cat" but it was a terrible impression according to Chief and Negative Girl. She snapped at them. Cyborg, who was hanging out with them for the day, got President Zachary Taylor and Robotman guessed it within seconds without much of a hint. They were accused of cheating but the others realized they had a lot in common. Chief offered to fuse them into one but it backfired and turned them into a giant monster. Elasti-Girl turned to gum to immobilize them but was just stomped. Elasti-Girl implored Beast Boy to think of something that would break them up. Beast Boy got an idea and went on Chief's van's loudspeaker then told Robotman about Cyborg's credit card debt. It worked and they split.

Chief finished an advanced virtual reality machine designed to trap the Brain in a simulated classroom lecture for the rest of his life. Elasti-Girl thought it sounded unethical. Chief confirmed it was and no one could escape it. Beast Boy revealed he was returning to Jump City the next day. They tried to trap him but he dodged the falling cube and took the elevator back up. Elasti-Girl tried to get him with vegan cookies but Beast Boy knew something was up and offered some to Robotman. Robotman ate one and passed out as he offered his critique. Beast Boy went down the stairs as a dog. Elasti-Girl revealed herself and made her body rigid. Beast Boy slid down into a dog carrier held by Negative Girl but he turned into a mouse and escaped. The Patrol resorted to trapping Beast Boy in a virtual reality simulation to drive him away from the Titans but it backfired. Elasti-Girl ordered the Patrol into the simulation to save Beast Boy before he was killed.

Beast Boy's idea to have them visualize flipping their brains like pancakes worked and they escaped the simulation. Beast Boy made sure they were finally okay with letting him go back to Jump City. They put on a false front again then Chief sprung his trap and the cube fell on top of Beast Boy to his annoyance. The Doom Patrol, represented by Elasti-Girl and Robotman, competed in Justice League's Next Top Talent Idol Star: Dance Crew Edition but were eliminated early on after they performed the robot. Elasti-Girl attended the Wayne Manor Regency Ball. Starfire got out of control with her matchmaking and paired her with Black Canary. They backed away and laughed it off. Elasti-Girl went to Wonder Woman's 80th anniversary party.

Beast Boy visited the Doom Patrol in Codsville on Thanksgiving. Elasti-Girl frantically tried to finish preparing the meals before the Codsville Thanksgiving Parade started while preventing Robotman from touching the turkey. Elasti-Girl extended her arms around Beast Boy then pulled him for a big hug and coddled him like a baby. Robotman and Chief started fighting over the TV remote. Elasti-Girl told them to stop but was ignored so she picked them both up and reminded them it was Thanksgiving, not Christmas. Chief retorted Robotman started it. Robotman apologized then asked if he could get Chief a warm bottle or some nursery rhymes because he was acting like a big baby. They started arguing. Elasti-Girl slammed them on the floor and told them to help Negative Girl set the ping pong table for dinner. They complied. Beast Boy noted to Elasti-Girl she had a lot on her plate. She showed him the center piece she made out of locally sourced weeds. A possum peered out from it and hissed at Beast Boy. She noted she cleaned the bats out the attic, including chasing Batman out with a broom. She then revealed she spent all morning making Beast Boy a tofu turkey.

Elasti-Girl extended her neck to check the time on the clock and hoped she got the rest of the cooking done before the parade. She shared with Beast Boy that it was her dream to be in the parade ever since she was a young girl. Beast Boy implored her to do it. She didn't think she could ever be in the parade. Beast Boy got an idea to build a parade float for her and recruited Robotman and Negative Girl in secret. Once the float was done, they called to Elasti-Girl. She peered out the window on the second floor. Robotman hinted they had a surprise for her. She got excited, ran downstairs, and burst through the wall as a spring with Chief in tow. Chief stated it better be good because he was missing the game. Robotman extended his arm and pushed the button on his chest. The driveway opened up and the float was revealed. Elasti-Girl was amazed. Robotman explained each part of the float represented each member of the family like the football player to represent the Chief's love of extreme sports injuries and dogs to represent his love of the dog show.

Negative Girl presented a giant mechanical turkey that breathed flames, after her friend Mr. Turkey. Beast Boy explained the giant toilet represented his tradition of eating so much food that he had to take a big Thanksgiving poop and the mama bear represented her, their mama bear. Its leash was held by the football player. Elasti-Girl teared up and called it the best float ever. She hugged the trio very hard. They drove the float to the parade but the Brain was the grand marshal and refused to let them join in because their float was an abomination. The Patrol pleaded with him to relent because it was Thanksgiving, the day of generosity. The Brain agreed and gave them five seconds to turn the float around and leave before he had it impounded. Beast Boy didn't want to give up. They decided to be a part of the parade whether Brain liked it or not. They ended up fighting the Brain and Mallah, who plotted to imprison everyone in town so the former could get all the holiday shopping deals he wanted. In the finale, Elasti-Girl increased her height and modified her strength then crumpled the Brain and his float into a ball and threw it into the giant toilet on the Patrol's float.

Beast Boy was eager to finish the parade but Elasti-Girl pointed out their float was totaled. Beast Boy had an idea already. The Patrol walked Elasti-Girl as a parade balloon to cheers from the spectators. Elasti-Girl declared it was the best Thanksgiving ever. Beast Boy shouted, "That's what's up!" While playing football at home, they found a projector and a box of film reels. Chief started to get nervous and said they were just old home movies about how each of them got super powers. They were eager to watch them but Chief wanted to do something else. They all yelled "No!" at the same time and watched Robotman's reel. Beast Boy wondered what Chief was doing in the same night club as Cliff Steele. Elasti-Girl recalled he hated music. Chief replied he couldn't remember because it was years ago. Robotman was suspicious Chief was spending his leisure time at the same arcade Negative Girl happened to be at. Elasti-Girl agreed but Chief didn't and declared he was starving.

Elasti-Girl played her reel. She realized it was about how she made it as a Hollywood actor. She wondered what Chief was doing on the set that day. Chief didn't find it important and wanted to eat. They watched Beast Boy's. Robotman accidentally knocked over the projector and box the reels were in. They found a folder marked "Top Secret" and learned Chief planned to turn them into a team of superheroes the whole time. Chief claimed he did it to turn them into a family. They were moved he cared enough to turn them into a family of freaks. They did a group hug. Chief told them not to get all gushy on him. He turned away from them and smiled. Elasti-Girl stretched herself thin trying to fix the house from the Patrol's rough housing, chase the raccoon off the satellite dish, making a bean burrito for Beast Boy, and pick up Negative Girl from a soccer game. She struggled to drive one more block but made it. When Negative Girl was picked up, she wanted ice cream. Elasti-Girl lost control and ended up tied up in a giant knot. The others couldn't free her and got stuck.

Robotman suggested a full day at the local spa to relax her muscles. The others agreed. Elasti-Girl couldn't accept since there was so much work. They stuffed her into a taxi. She asked them how they would cope. The taxi departed for the spa. Unable to survive alone, they made an Elasti-Bot but their incessant demands overloaded it and it tried to destroy them. Elasti-Girl returned home and battled it. At first, they were evenly matched with their elasticity and morphing abilities but Elasti-Girl destroyed it with a series of wound up punches. The house was wrecked by the battle. They hugged her and admitted they couldn't survive without her. She thanked them for the day spa but told them she really just wanted them to help out around the house. They promised to try harder and decided to make lunch for her. The kitchen descended into chaos to her chagrin. After the Patrol and Beast Boy successfully removed an unstable mass of negative energy out of Negative Girl, Elast-Girl grew to towering heights then heaved it across the United States. She claimed she threw it so far away it wouldn't hurt anyone. It landed on the Titans Tower and exploded. During a taffy eating competition, Elasti-Girl stretched her arm across the world going right through the Titans Tower.
