Little realizing that he is under the control of the Puppet Master, the Army tries to capture Namor for robbing a bank. After being shot in the arm, Namor seeks the healing power of water and winds up in the Hudson River. There he encounters Lady Dorma who has come to the surface world to retrieve him as the Behemoth has awakened and is menacing Atlantis. Namor breaks the Puppet Master's hold and returns to his undersea kingdom. Krang contacts the Puppet Master and commands that he make one of his special puppets of someone else.
