To his surprise, each of the Metal Men comes out with full individual personalities. However when Magnus superior reveals their purpose for target elimination they flee taking refuge in Magnus apartment. Later a mysterious figure steal Magnus prototype and throws it into a vat of chemicals creating a creature that attack Magnus.
