"Comes the Hangman" - Members of the Committee hook Phillip Russell up to a machine known as a Negative Impulse Charger. Under the supervision of Professor Makko, they demand that Phillip gives up his son, Jack. In Venice Beach, Jack decides that it is time to move out of Buck Cowan's bungalow. He moves into an alleged "singles" apartment complex known as Colden House. There he meets several of his fellow tenants including Sam, Tina Sands, and Clary Winter. Elsewhere, a masked vigilante calling himself the Hangman saves the life of a young woman from the aggressive behavior of a strung-out junkie. After driving the blade of his scythe into the man’s back, he brings the woman back to his secret lair. Although he claims that he is protecting her, in truth, he is actually keeping her in a dungeon.
