Synopsis for "Young And Innocent"
At the Citadel, the Green Lanterns check on Arisia's condition after Whiteout's attack caused her to panic during their last battle. Kilowog's exams show no illness, and she claims that she's okay. Privately, Hal asks Arisia to stop flirting with him, her being half his age. Arisia tries to convince him that, even though she is fourteen by Earth's standards, she is actually twenty-eight because her planet circles around its sun twice as often as Earth. Hal reiterates that she is just a teenager in his eyes, and she runs away, hurt by his words.
Back at the meeting room, the Green Lanterns decide to announce their presence to the world. Each of them takes off to a different continent to show their goodwill on every corner of the planet. Ch'p uses the trip to take Ub'x to Africa, where he plans to work on evolving the animals to their level of intelligence. The reporters arrive shortly at the Citadel, and John lets Tawny Young in to interview them.
The news of the Green Lanterns' presence arrives at Baron Tyrano's screens, an old villain confined to an iron lung who previously battled Hal Jordan. Using his machines, he creates seven replicas of himself and sends them to attack the Citadel. The Green Lanterns defend themselves against the replicants. During the fight, they discover that the damage they deal is split seven ways into all replicas. So they coordinate an attack to hit all of them simultaneously, dealing Baron Tyrano with such damage that renders him unconscious, and all the clones fade away.
After the battle, Kilowog check on Arisia's condition again and he notices that she is taller than before.
Meanwhile, on Maltus, Guy Gardner is still learning to put the needs of the rest over those of himself, using his power to serve them.
