Using his unique abilities, Plastic Man located Luke’s cell and, through security cameras, spotted Metamorpho monitoring the area. As they strategized their escape, Plastic Man cleverly freed Luke and decided to liberate other supervillains in the prison as well.
Just as they were about to make their exit, they encountered a strange gas filling the corridor. It turned out to be Rex, who initiated a friendly chat but soon revealed his true intentions. Rex coldly demanded that Plastic Man surrender to the One Earth Regime. Plastic Man refused, which triggered chaos in the underground prison. With his refusal, a massive fight ensued, leading to the destruction of the facility and allowing all the prisoners, both villains and heroes, to escape.
