Synopsis:
The Flash encounters Captain Cold and Golden Glider who have been hired to stop the porcupine man. Wally is in bad shape, but he manages to escape. Mason Trollbridge helps him remove the spines embedded in his body. Wally then rests.

Meanwhile Cold and Glider continue to search for Wally and the missing children. Geraldo, the sheriff's crazy cousin, leads the posse to a cave inside of which the boys are trapped. Captain Cold tries to get them out, but he fails. Once Wally has recovered, he rescues the boys. The Flash is redeemed and earns a reward which he splits with Captain Cold. The rest of the money is put towards repairing the damage he has recently caused.
