Episode Title:
Rapacity In Blue.
Episode Description:
With his relationship with his wife continuing to sour, the Monarch struggles to come to terms with the truth about his father. Meanwhile, Dr. Venture, Billy and Pete try to come up with an invention to present at a conference J.J. had scheduled an appearance at prior to his death. After rejecting several of Billy and Pete's proposals, Dr. Venture discovers the existence of "God Gas," a gaseous weapon capable of making targets susceptible to mind control, and enthusiastically orders testing. Harangutan, a brutish supervillain, attacks the building and injures Sgt. Hatred, then gets into a war of egos with Brock until Warriana, one of the members of the mercenary superhero group, interferes. When Harangutan returns, Venture uses the God Gas on him and accidentally exposes Billy and Brock to it as well. Under the influence of the gas, Brock hallucinates Warriana as an actual goddess and goes to her apartment for a tryst, while Harangutan suffers a mental breakdown and violently attacks Billy. The Monarch and 21-—having adopted the Blue Morpho and Kano identities for themselves in order to eliminate competition to the Monarch's claim on arching Venture—-intervene, kill Harangutan and rescue Billy, who mistakes the Blue Morpho's identity as Dr. Venture himself. Dr. Mrs. the Monarch catches the Monarch and 21 when they return home, angrily believing that he went out on "date night" with 21 to spite her. The Monarch allows her to believe this in order to hide his activity as the Blue Morpho.
