Thor rescues Jane from Loki. Odin appears and accuses Thor of bringing Jane to Asgard. Loki denies all involvement and Thor calls him a liar. Odin orders -- the Trial of the Gods, but first Thor is granted 48 hours in which to defeat the Absorbing Man. Aided by reporter Harris Hobbs and a courageous police unit, Thor tricks Creel into absorbing some helium gas. A gaseous, lighter-than-air Creel floats off into space. Thor returns to New York to gaze upon a sleeping Jane before returning to Asgard to face his trial.
