#13:
    Tank is with his new girlfriend, Laurel, when he gets attacked by these crazy bad guys for some unknown reason.  As he fights with these bad guys, he starts to press his limit on his super strength, and starts to exert himself.  While he's fighting, Laurel starts to wonder just what kind of background her new boyfriend has, not knowing that he's a DNAgent.  Tank is able to fight off the baddies, but they kidnap his girl.  Tank calls out to Rainbow, and she and Surge head out to rescue him.
    When they arrive, Tank is unconscious, so Rainbow mind scans him and it is revealed just how bad Tank feels.  They take him back to the lab so he can recuperate.
    Meanwhile, Sham is still on the lookout for his friend, Snafu, unbenknownst that Snafu is dead, and no one wants to tell him.  Sham also is suspicious to those that created him (the lab guys who created all the DNAgents), and is worried that they are ploting against him.
    Young Amber is enjoying her flying abilities as usual, until Krell (the man who runs the Matrix laboratory) yells at her to quit flying.  He gets really mad at her and decides to have her flying ability taken away from her since she causes so much attention to their covert operations.
    Tank is in the process of getting his strength back when the bad guys that attacked him earlier call up the lab and tell him that they have his girl, Laurel, and are holding her at gunpoint in a warehouse in San Diego.  Tank takes a jet and heads to her rescue.  He busts in on the bad guys, who are working for Krell, and rescues his girlfriend.  She freaks when she finds out that Tank is actually her boyfriend, and runs away.
    Sham is still on the hunt for Snafu, and finds a trace that resembles his.  When he finds the origin of the trace, it is not Snafu, but a man called Worm, who has a giant cranium, and looks like a dork.  Worm talks Sham into spying on his creators to find out if they are, in fact, plotting against Sham.  Sham finds out that they are, and goes military.

#14:
    The Worm's background is revealed, and it is none too pleasant.  It is revealed that he always gives people advice that ends up blowing back up in their faces, and then one day, he ran into a strange rock which gave him the power to read people's minds, and with his knack of pursuading people into doing the wrong things, he is revealed to be one serious problem.
    Sham, meanwhile, is now trying to figure out what to do with those who are plotting against him and where his friend Snafu is when he runs into a little girl who looks like his own age named Amy.  Sham starts to complain to her about how not being human sucks and that she'd never know what it was like to be "property".  She then says that she can relate, and then Sham, in a fit of rage, turns into a monster and scares her off.
    Mr. Krell has a meeting with Amber and tells her she cannot fly anymore.  Amber is heartbroken and runs off, while Sham, disguised as Tank, tries to sneak into the off-limits room.  He is found out by the doctor, but tries to go in anyways.  He gets electrocuted, and is told that the room is made so that Sham specifically can't get in the room.  Sham leaves, even more determined to get in that room and find out what happened to Snafu.
    Gemstone is revealed to now be working for the newspaper, and is paid to break in and steal documents confirming the existence of the DNAgents.  Gemstone agrees, and as he leaves, Worm shows up and gives some more bad advice to the man who runs the newspaper.
    Amber tells Rainbow that Krell wants to make Amber give up her flying powers, and says that she is going to run away.  Tank tells her that is not a good idea, that he already tried, and he had to come back.  Tank then leaves to go work out, and as he does, Rainbow detects an intruder in the hall.
    Amber storms out to confront the intruder, to show that her flying powers are still a valuable asset, but she gets shot down by Gemstone, who is the intruder.  Tank gets pissed as he sees Amber is hurt and charges at Gemstone, who now lets loose his laser belt to try and stop Tank.  It doesn't work so he tries to make a break for it, but Rainbow stops him.  They inform Krell who shows up and tells Rainbow and Tank to hand over the intruder and leave.  They do so, and Krell lets him go, because Gemstone was working for Krell.
    Amber is put into the tube for healing, and Worm is revealed to be going back to his room.  As he does, Sham is in the room waiting for him, and asks for more of his advice.
    Worm tells him what to do, and Sham goes to back to the Matrix lab, and hooks up with Gemstone.  Together, they break in.  Gemstone gets Sham into the "off-limits" room, and then heads off to get his own information.  Sham goes through the files, until he finds out that Snafu really is dead.  He goes crazy and starts to smash up the lab.  The doctor comes in and tells him to stop, but it is too late.  Sham demands that the doctor tell him what he was doing in there, and the doc tells him that he was trying to grow Sham a new mother...

#15:
    Sham continues to go nuts on the good doctor who was trying to create Sham a new mother.  The doc tells his backstory, about the woman who he was recreating, and how Sham shares the same genetic code as her.  Sham refuses to believe, goes nuts some more and starts shooting up the place.  Rainbow comes in and tries to calm Sham down.  Sham doesn't want to listen, believing that the doctor was the one responsible for killing Snafu.  Rainbow then shows Sham that HE is the one who, in fact killed Snafu.  Sham is shattered by this revelation, and runs off crying.
    Gemstone, meanwhile is selling info on the DNAgents to the newspaper, and plans to go back to get even more info so he can blackmail Krell.  Amy tries to console Sham again, but he scares her off again.  Sham notices that he is melting, and is distraught.  Tank sees the whole fiasco, and gives Sham a lecture.  Sham thinks about what Tank has told him.
    At the same time, Surge is walking around the building planning on putting the moves on one of the new lab techies, and goes to the doc to see if he knows anything about her.  The doc's too busy though, so Surge leaves, and runs into Gemstone who is just leaving the restricted files room.  They duke it out, and Gemstone gets away.
    Krell orders Rainbow, Surge, and Tank to get back that info that Gemstone stole, because it will reveal the existence of the DNAgents, so they go and try to stop him.
    Gemstone goes and sees his brother in prison, but his brother tells him to stop.  Gemstone doesn't listen and leaves.  He runs into the DNAgents, and a fight ensues.  Rainbow's powers start to go on the fritz, but Tank and Surge take care of the problem.  In the ensuing fight, Gemstone is killed by an explosion, and the info is destroyed.  His brother watches in tears at his brother's lost life.
        Amy, meanwhile, finally makes a breakthrough with Sham, and the two become friends.

#16:
    A mad dictator in South Africa is training a man to defeat Tank in battle and show the might of the human race over those who were created genetically.
    Meanwhile, Laurel still contemplates over her relationship with Tank.  She wonders about who and what he is, but her thoughts are cut short as she is kidnapped yet again by the South African doctor's troops.
    The man who the dictator is training is named Brick Stonewall.  The mad dictator then sends out a television broadcast calling Tank out.  Tank finds out through Krell who was trying to keep it a secret from him, but failed to do so, and Tank heads to South Africa to free Laurel.  At the same time, Brick's old wife sees him on the mad dictator's broadcast and tries to reach him.
    Tank encounters Brick and the two duke it out.Tank gets his ass kicked in front of the cameras, which the dictator says will be played later on national television to show the world that humans are superior to genetically engineered creations, and he has a U.N. observer on hand to confirm this.
    Tank continues to get his ass kicked, and back in the States, Brick's wife runs into Rainbow, who reads her mind and knows that she wants to get in contact with Brick.  She takes her into the lab to establish a mental link between Brick and his wife.  After the first failed attempt, they succeed, but Brick's mind is so deteriated by the steroids, the connection is soon lost.  Rainbow then connects with Laurel's mind, and tells her to talk to Tank mentally and let him know how she really feels.  She does, but it is too late.  Brick wins and Tank is knocked out.
    Laurel is released, and runs over to Tank's aide.  The U.N. observer says that the dictator was right, that genetically engineered creations are dangerous, and then says that Brick is monstrous, and reveals that he thought that Brick was the genetic experiment, and that everyone else would think so too.  The dictator cannot believe this, and concludes that the experiment was a failure, and that all the tapes are to be destroyed.
    Laurel helps Tank back to his ship, and the two leave, arm in arm, as the dictator is left with his failure.

#17:
    Amber is still in the cryo-tube as Rainbow and the doctor contemplate her fate and the fact that Amber can no longer fly.  As they are in there, Rainbow's boyfriend shows up and takes her out.  Krell calls the doc to his office and the two talk of the DNAgents' independence and how they are growing out of control.  The doc is in favor the agents, but Krell says he would rather have them destroyed than to let them reign free.
    Meanwhile, Tank, Sham, and Surge are in the training room, and Sham is feeling a lot better now that he has a girlfriend.  Surge thinks to himself how lucky Tank and Sham are to have girls and how he has no one, but his thoughts are cut short as a giant ship comes and blows a hole in the side of the Matrix building.  It steals an important computer that holds the genetic formula for the DNAgents.  The three DNAgents are unable to stop the ship, but Sham is able to throw a signal device on it to track it.
    Rainbow and her boyfriend talk about their relationship and how her powers are on the fritz, and her boyfriend is right about to propose, but she is called away by the lab because of the break in.  She arrives and is the one to tell Amber that her flying powers were taken away.  Amber is crushed, but still goes with the other agents and Krell to get back the computer.
    It is revealed that the one who stole it was Landon Venture, a rival of Krell's, who plans on letting the truth of what goes on at the Matrix laboratory out into the public, destroying Krell.
    The DNAgents arrive at Venture's base, and duke it out with his flunkies.  Rainbow's telepathic powers are still not working, but a hologram monster appears, and Rainbow is confused because she is not the one responsible for it.  The DNAgents are kicking serious butt, but Venture sneaks onto the ship and tells Krell that he will kill him.  Amber shows up, but Venture pushes Krell out of the ship.  Amber jumps out and catches him, but she can't fly.  Miraculously, Amber flies, however!  Krell can't believe it, and chalks it up as another one of their independencies that will lead to their rebellion.
    After the fight's over, and the battle is one, Krell blows up the ship which has Venture still on it, gases the DNAgents, and takes them back to the Matrix lab and puts them in stasis.  The doctor objects, but cannot do anything about it.
    It is revealed that Worm has been giving advice to Krell, and we all know how reliable Worm's advice is.  Rainbow's boyfriend shows up and starts to cause a ruckus.  It is revealed that Rainbow is pregnant, but she is in stasis.  Rainbow's boyfriend punches Krell in the face, who says that he deserved it.  Jay, Rainbow's boyfriend, goes back to his office, where a cute girl calls up and asks him out.  He says no, and is left in the darkness of his office, alone.
