Doom Patrol is a team of traumatized and downtrodden superheroes, each of whom has suffered a horrible accident that gave them superhuman abilities but also left them scarred and disfigured. The members of the team have found their purpose through The Chief and have come together to investigate some of the world's weirdest phenomena. After The Chief mysteriously disappears, though, the reluctant heroes find themselves called to action by Cyborg, who comes to them with a mission that they cannot refuse. Doom Patrol -- part support group, part superhero team -- is a band of superpowered freaks fighting for a world that wants nothing to do with them. In 1927, a caged Dorothy is kept locked up in a circus as the "ape faced girl", who has to entertain the crowd with her summoned creature. When the ringleader attempts to punish her creature, the voice of the Candlemaker calls out to her, telling her to make a wish. As she blows out a candle, everyone in the circus is killed, with the exception of Niles Caulder. In the present, Larry tries in vain to restore Dorothy, Caulder, Rita, Cliff, Jane, Vic and Danny to their normal size. While the rest of the team deals with personal problems, Rita learns to use her powers. Rita suggests Caulder to call Willoughby Kipling for help; though initially against the idea, Caulder eventually gives in. Kipling agrees to help in exchange for Caulder's most valuable possession: a talisman that grants immortality. The group is returned to their normal size, minus Danny who remains the form of a brick. Afterwards, Vic leaves Doom Manor. Dorothy overhears Caulder talking to Kipling about his condition. Later, the Candlemaker calls out to her once more, telling her to make a wish to save her father, but she refuses to comply. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AttBOR_nszI
