Synopsis:
Metamorpho battle the Chemo-Robots of Franz Zorb for possession of a necleonic moleculizer. Despite his powers, Metamorpho is unable to maintain possession of the device when the robots attack him. After Zorb and the robots escape with the device, Metamorpho returns to Stagg's lab with Simon.

When they arrive at the lab, Metamorpho discovers that Element Girl who had been comatose has disappeared. He tracks her down, but Element Girl fights him and joins Zorb.

Metamorpho tracks down Zorb and meets Element Girl again. He thinks that he is in for another fight, but instead Element Girl helps him defeat the Chemo-Robots and recover the moleculizer. Element Girl explains that her defection was only a hoax, and now joins Metamorpho to form a team.
