Static Shock (season 3, episode 14)

“Flashback“ Release date: 06-07-03 Plot: Five years ago, when a blackout hit the city, Dakota was hit by gang riots (as a possible play on the Los Angeles riots of 1992). As Virgil tries to regain memories of his mother, who was killed that night, a new meta-human, Nina Crocker aka Time-Zone, seeks out the help of Static and Gear. When Gear invents a device that puts her time-traveling capabilities under control, the remote is stolen by Ebon. Static accidentally burns out the circuits, and sends them all back five years to the Dakota gang riots — where Virgil comes face-to-face with his late mother, Jean.
