Summary
Rask has arranged for Warren to battle the amnesiac Bobby in the arena. If he does not kill his friend, Seera will die. Palik blinds Warren to ensure that he, and his sponsor Rask, will lose.
Hank and the Rejects join forces with Scott and the Beginagains.
Bobby almost defeats Warren, but the duel is interrupted by the Beginagain's attack. Lev frees Seera before Rask can kill her, and she telepathically restores Bobby's memory.
On Earth, Apocalypse observes that other super-villains are making strange alliances and deduces that a mastermind is controlling this struggle for dominance. Loki rewards his insight by offering to ally with him.
