Synopsis for "The Hunt for Reactron - Part 3"

General Lane enforces Reactron's membership in Squad K. Despite their reluctance they take him in to hunt for Lois Lane. Despite gleeful pantomime style, nudge, nudge, wink, wink smirks Squad K don't seem to notice they've been played and head out of 7734. In the Metropolis Museum of Science & Industry Lois sneaks around for a secret rendezvous with Chris and Lana. Chris explains that Metallo & Reactron had impersonated them on film. Lois deduces her father created the video and Lana rolls her eyes (not at the super dull plots in the Super books) with sickness that she brushes off as dehydration.

Kara decides she doesn't need to be a super bitch anymore and asks Thara what she meant about an unseen force corrupting Lana... Thara cuts her off and then spots that Kara is still blood bloom petal of which she has a matching one back from when they infected one another on Krypton. Apparently when Kara arrived on Earth stark naked, she had only the blood petal as a reminder of her home. (Riiiiiiiiiiigggghhht...)

Suddenly, by some crazy coincidence, Squad K pass by Kara's window at the exact moment the two girls are staring right at it. It isn't after them though and suddenly they realize it must be homing in on Chris!

Lois promises to write a story if Chris can do her investigative journalism work for her. Lois though reminds them that Cat Grant, Morgan Edge and pretty much the whole planet has become very anti-Kryptonian but her analysis is cut short as Squad K arrive.

To save his mother and Lana Chris draws them away flying to intercept Squad K. Kara and Thara arrive to help. Squad K refuse aid from Guardian and the Science Police and fly out to battle. Colonel Hazard is surprised when Reactron holds back, especially with his bloodthirsty nature. Reactron explains he can't participate in aerial combat as his upgrades have... downgraded that ability.

Instead Reactron leaps out of the SK carrier and lands on the ground. Gold Kryptonite beams blaze through the sky and cause devastating damage to the city. Hazard warns him to stop harming civilians and they give chase as Kara, Thara and Chris race into the sewers. When they see the destruction in the sewers they were blamed for they pause and it's long enough for them to be caught unaware. Chris however has a plan and while the trio converse in Kryptonese Chris offers the three of them up for surrender.

Immediately cuffed in Red Sun shackles they are led away be Squad K when Reactron arrives. He slaps a powerless Kara to the ground and receives another lecture from Hazard. Thara and Chris explain to Hazard what's been going on and just as Hazard realizes they've been punk'd by Reactron and General Lane... Reactron executes them...

Now powerless they are helpless to the wrath of Krull!
