During a series of battles and emergencies, Wonder Woman separates the Super Hero Girls and The Invinci-Bros into pairs and much to Bumblebee's terror, she gets paired with Hawkman each time. One day, Bumblebee was going into art class. Everyone's eye turned to her, much to her shock. As Bumblebee walks to her easel, she sees Hawkman, got startled and accidentally knocked over everyone else's paintings, much there annoyances. After that, she discovers Hawkman drawing a portrait of a girl during art class and he reluctantly tells her that it is his true love and that they were cursed to reincarnate for eternity. Bumblebee then tracks her down and decides to help Hawkman express his true feelings to her, much to his dismay.
After a montage of Hawkman trying and falling at various gestures of love, Hawkman decides that there is no hope, to which Bumblebee declines and convinces him to find another way; Hawkman concludes that he can at least try to be her friend. When he has a brief conversation with her, she invites him on a date with her, which he accepts.
Just as Hawkman arrives at the restaurant, however, Hath-Set, the reason the romance between Hawkman and Shiera always ends in shambles, attacks him. Hawkman and Bumblebee battle Hath-Set and prepares to make them perish, but Hawkman remarks that he has not yet gone on a date with Shiera. Disappointed, Hath-Set leaves, but not before warning Hawkman that he will one day return to carry on the destiny.
Back at the restaurant, Hawkman decides not to go on the date, as "it's the only way he can love Shiera." Shiera, dismayed that Hawkman never showed up, tearfully departs from the restaurant, leaving behind a napkin on which she has drawn Hawkman.
