Okay, hold it.

I suggest you all keep your hands to yourselves from now on.

Take my word.

It's in everyone's best interest

to have me out of your hair as quickly as possible.

This is the stuff.

Batman!

Get us out of here!

Move!

Wayne-Powers?

Powers is helping Blight?

What happened? We heard there was trouble...

If we stick to proper channels of procurement,

how long will the materials last?

Two weeks, maybe less.

You're burning through the skin too fast.

And if I may, Mr. Powers, it's not just the radiation.

Your temper is out of control.

I know, Doctor.

I know.

I'm tired of this.

I can't maintain the charade any longer.

It's time I made new arrangements.

Paxton Powers, polluter!

- Wayne-Powers, go home! - Paxton Powers, polluter!

Paxton Powers, polluter!

No more sludge in our rivers!

Paxton Powers, polluter!

Paxton Powers, polluter!

Paxton Powers, polluter!

- Paxton Powers, polluter! - No more pollution.

How do they expect us to make a profit?

He wants to see you.

Oh, now, Father beckons.

Guess I've been in exile long enough.

Let me guess.

You've thought of an even more demeaning grunt job for me.

Does acting chairman of the board sound like a grunt job?

How stupid do you think I am?

It's in title only, at least at first.

I'll tell you what I want done and you'll do it.

If you perform well, real power will follow.

I need your help, son.

I'm no longer able to face the public.

What are you talking about? What's going on?

Oh, Dad.

Paxton Powers, polluter!

Paxton Powers, polluter!

Paxton Powers, polluter!

All these people are anti-Powers?

Now I don't feel so alone.

Paxton?

Derek Powers' son.

Word is he's being promoted today.

As you can see, not everyone was happy with him in his last job.

While you're in there, ask Daddy about his connection to Glow Boy.

I'd love to finally nail this guy on something.

I'll see if it comes up.

I apologize for the abruptness of this announcement.

Unfortunately, my health demands that I take a temporary leave.

Emphasis, I hope, on the temporary.

Therefore, effective midnight last night,

I've signed full proxy over my majority stock holdings

to my son, Paxton.

What did he say?

He's putting his son in charge?

- His son. - Does he know what he's doing?

I trust that you'll grant him

the same respect as you would me.

We must be heard.

The board must know!

I said you can't go in there!

Sefior Powers, members of the board,

we have come all the way from Verdeza.

Please, hear us out.

Get these men out of here!

Dad, your eyes.

Our people are fishermen.

It is our livelihood.

But your son has dumped so much poison

that he has killed our rivers.

- What's going on? - How did they get in here?

What's this about poison?

I said get rid of them!

Dad, all the people.

This is all that's left.

- Dad! - Oh, the stench.

This is disgusting.

Good heavens!

- What is he? - What happened to him?

Whoa!

Powers is Blight.

Is that really Derek Powers?

You animals!

You want to talk about poison?

I am poison.

Let him go.

Old man, I've been waiting to do this for years.

Powers and Blight, just think.

You're both of my two favorite people.

Dad!

You okay?

I'm fine, Batman.

By surprise, and stunning the business world.

As the manhunt for Derek Powers continues,

questions about what he is and how his transformation occurred

remain unanswered.

You think he was born this way?

Do you remember when Powers was exposed to nerve gas?

Sure, I remember. I threw it.

Powers would have been treated with radiation.

That combined with the gas may have mutated him into this.

You mean, I made him that?

You may have, in part.

Good.

Hey, this guy had my father murdered,

and all he's done since is hide from the law.

Well, no more hiding for Mr. Derek Powers.

Now everyone can see what he is.

Even in the dark.

I appreciate the support of the board, Mr. Larousse.

I won't let the company down.

Excuse me, I have another call coming in.

Paxton, get my doctors down here!

Where is everybody?

Dad, settle down.

I have to get out of the city.

I need my skin!

Dad, let me talk.

I'll get you help, but putting the skin back on isn't the answer.

- What are you doing? - I'm sending an ambulance.

You fool, they'll arrest me!

Now I can't even stay here.

Listen to me.

Now that the truth is out, let's get help.

Your doctors didn't have the answer, so...

You've always been a fool.

Now I see I'm on my own!

Any hot spots yet?

A trace here and there, but nothing fresh.

He might have been on the move earlier,

but now he's holed up somewhere good.

I think I know another way to find him.

Come back and I'll explain.

Actually, something else just came up.

- What? - Look out your window.

This one you have to see for yourself.

Next time, use e-mail.

Sorry, but we have to talk.

Paxton Powers.

Please, come inside.

My father's doctors have been working on this for a while.

It's called a pinch cell.

Turn it on and it sucks up radiation like a sponge.

- What? - Look out your window.

I'm having a net built to connect to this cell.

If you can find my father and lure him into the net,

the cell can weaken him enough to hold him.

You want me to catch him for you?

He needs medical attention.

His condition's affected his mind.

There's no reasoning with him, even if we knew where he was.

I know this is strange asking you,

but from what I hear

you may be the only one who can find him.

Wayne, you get that?

Powers' own son wants me to bring him in.

Careful, Terry.

You're sounding a little too vindictive.

What do you mean?

I'm just helping a guy help his dad.

Except in my version, that help happens behind bars.

Mr. Mendez, how are the fish biting these days?

That's what I was about to ask you.

Batman's in, but I doubt he'll cooperate when things hit the fan.

Be ready to kill him too.

Looks like your hunch was right.

How'd you know?

I've been reading people since before you were a person.

Ah! My pet bat left us a present.

Ten o'clock.

You don't wanna be here tonight.

- Ahoy, captain. - Batman.

Where are you? Show yourself!

I found you. Now it's your turn.

I gotta say, a nuclear sub was smart.

That's why I couldn't find your radiation trail.

This whole tin can is still hot with rads.

It's about to get warmer.

Turn right at the next hatch.

Why do you persist in tormenting me?

All I want is to be left alone!

Can't let you run around like this.

We've got rules about radioactive waste.

And besides, this is personal.

Who are you?

You really wanna know?

Yes.

You killed my father.

Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?

Too bad. It's all you get.

Captain on the bridge!

What is this?

Just making up for lost time, Dad.

We never did go fishing together.

Did you really expect me to believe you'd ever give me power?

That I'd ever have an ounce of control as long as you were alive?

You taught me by example, Dad.

The only way to get power is to seize it.

Enough. Turn it off. That thing's gonna kill him.

You want this as much as I do.

No. I wouldn't have agreed to this.

You said you were gonna help him.

I lied.

[yelpingl

Paxton!

Terry, What's going on in there?

The radiation is off the scale.

I think Powers is going critical.

I've gotta do something.

Get out. Now!

According to his son,

Derek Powers was hiding aboard the sub

when its long dormant reactor apparently breached.

You made a bad enemy tonight.

What are you gonna do?

Testify against me in that mask?

Oh, I wasn't talking about me.

I'm the least of your worries.

Although divers continue to inspect the wreckage,

the remains of Derek Powers have yet to be found.

So he melted with the sub.

Sure, he did.
