Sykes and Givens try to track down who is running the New Warriors, because unless the dead walk, someone new has taken up the guise of Night Thrasher. The team trains and Jubilee tries to talk Sofia into joining up, but she still isn't buying in, especially when she has no idea who the person claiming to run the team is. Sykes and Givens go try to turn over a few rocks, questioning Night Thrasher's brother Bandit, now a double amputee and wheelchair bound after a car wreck. Bandit claims his new philanthropy group has nothing to do with his brother, but when the detectives squeeze a little harder he tell them there are funds missing, funds only Bandit and Night Thrasher had the access codes to. Wolverine tracks down Jubilee to check up on her and mend fences, and spins a cautionary tale to be sure fighting and replacing her lost powers is a dangerous bit, but it's up to her and to be careful doing it. Sykes and Givens look to see where they can poke their nose next when they are ambushed by the man they are looking for!
