During the next demonstration flight, Peter is knocked unconscious by a hidden gas pellet planted by Weil, Vonlange's saboteur—but an automatic safety system keeps the ship flying in orbit while Peter sleeps.

After tricking the hero into surrendering himself by threatening Earth with planted cobalt bombs, the villains believe they've finally cornered their foe, but Super Pup's resourcefulness and super-powered abilities prove far more formidable than they anticipated.

When his former boss realizes the truth serum has actually cleaned up the town's corruption, he offers Merry far more than just his old job back.
