The JSA returns to Rogers home to see the film that caused the problem, and the film is blank, but Rogers restores it and disappears. The Monster appears and attacks the JSA as he tells them that Jason Rogers is his twin brother, whom he hates. After a struggle, the Monster is hit by a lethal ray and is fatally wounded. Dr. Mid-Nite concludes that while the two were twins, the Monster had never developed a body, just a mind, which would often inhabit Roger's body without his knowing it. Meanwhile, the Monster has reverted to his Roger's appearance and, now knowing the truth, dies at peace.
