April 9: Tigress intervenes before Psimon can enter Kaldur’s mind and discover their secret; she drugs him, but he discovers her true identity before passing out. She persuades Black Manta that she ought to kidnap Miss Martian in order to force her to fix the damage she has done, and Manta sends Deathstroke to accompany her. Meanwhile M’gann determines that the Green Beetle is an ally, and he states that the energy drink created by the Reach contains chemicals that will eventually addict the population and make them incapable of revolt, as well as a tracer that seeks out the meta-gene. Lagoon Boy privately confronts Miss Martian about her behavior, but is interrupted when Deathstroke and Tigress attack the pair and take M’gann hostage. Aboard Black Manta’s ship, Miss Martian and Artemis work on fixing Kaldur’s damaged mind and, in spite of some resistance, they make progress; M’gann states that the process could take weeks, however. Nightwing reveals the truth about Aqualad and Artemis to Superboy and Lagoon Boy, both of whom are outraged. Elsewhere, Jaime Reyes convinces Green Beetle to modify his Scarab, and is ecstatic when he finds that the Scarab’s voice has been silenced.
