The titular hero returns home after recovering from his encounter with Bloodsport - only to discover that his freedom comes at a price. Action comedy, starring John Cena

Tension and mistrust build within the team after Peacemaker's hazardous escape, then he receives a surprise visitor as he grapples with his new assignment

Economos and Murn bond on their first official mission, while Peacemaker and Harcourt reach an understanding, but the whole job goes sideways with the arrival of Judomaster

After a mission that turns out somewhat successful, Murn's decided to bring Vigilante into the fold, seeing potential and hoping his skills will bolster the team’s efforts. The recruitment follows the operation’s mixed results, with Murn confident Vigilante can contribute to future endeavours. He hopes the addition will offset the mission’s shortcomings and give the squad a edge. Meanwhile, Peacemaker's forced to face a tangled part of his history when he discovers that his own teammates played a role in getting his father incarcerated. The revelation pushes him to confront the personal ramifications of his past actions and the impact of the team’s involvement. This confrontation forces him to reassess his loyalties and the cost of the team’s decisions.

The team's long‑standing, deeply felt undercurrent of tension finally boils over intensely when Peacemaker confronts Economos, accusing him of having his father personally locked up. The argument lays bare the strain that has been building among the members, and the clash marks the moment the hidden discord erupts into open conflict. In the wake of the dispute, Murn steps in and steers the group away from the argument, refocusing everyone's attention on the strategic Butterfly plan. His crucial intervention redirects the collective energy, moving the narrative forward as the team puts the plan back at the centre of their efforts.

In this instalment, Murn finally lays bare the most consequential secret he's guarded, a disclosure that dramatically shifts the stakes for everyone involved. At the same time, Auggie Smith, freshly liberated from custody by Detective Song, returns to his house with a chilling resolve: he's determined to kill his own son. The episode juxtaposes Murn’s revelatory confession with Auggie’s ruthless plan, heightening the tension as both characters pursue dramatically different, yet equally pivotal, courses of action. Murn’s admission, kept under wraps, finally emerges in a moment that underscores his vulnerability and the gravity of what he has concealed. Auggie’s return, marked by the assistance of Detective Song, underscores a grim determination that casts a shadow over his family dynamics.

In this episode, Harcourt, Murn and Adebayo suddenly discover they're encircled by an alien force, the presence of which presses in on them from every side. At the same time, Peacemaker is forced into a direct confrontation with his own father, a tense face‑to‑face that unfolds with the backing of both Vigilante and Economos. The three characters each grapple with their respective challenges, the alien threat hemming in the first trio while the familial clash pits Peacemaker against his sire, all under the watchful support of his allies. The situation leaves each party locked in a precarious stand‑off, with the alien menace and the father‑son duel driving the episode’s core action.

Peacemaker and Adebayo find themselves at odds, their disagreement sharp enough to strain the group's unity. The friction between them is palpable, each insisting on a different approach, and their rivalry threatens to undermine the mission. Nevertheless, the rest of the team recognises that personal grievances must be set aside for the greater objective. With the conflict simmering, the pressing task remains: the team must kill the cow before the alien forces finish its teleportation. The creature's life hangs in the balance, and the aliens' attempt to transport it can't be allowed to succeed. This race against time forces everyone to act in unison, putting the mission above all else.

Peacemaker is keen to become part of the Justice Gang, while Harcourt is on the lookout for a job and Economos finds himself handed a fresh assignment. The episode blends superhero tropes with action and comedy, delivering a light‑hearted, fast‑paced adventure. John Cena leads the cast, bringing his characteristic energy to the role. Throughout the storyline, the characters juggle their respective goals, creating a series of humorous and dynamic moments that drive the plot forward. The tone remains upbeat, balancing the excitement of superhero feats with the levity of comedic situations. The narrative keeps the pacing brisk, ensuring each scene contributes to the overall momentum.
