Hydra fails to learn the location of the Braino-Saur despite their Image-Inducer. Stark tells SHIELD's directors it was designed to disarm Hydra's Betratron Bomb orbiting above Earth. Agent G helps Fury escape but he refuses to promise not to harm her father, the Supreme Hydra. Dum Dum, Gabe and a SHIELD squad use the captured Hydra saucer to locate their HQ. In the Imperial Industries boardroom tremors shake the building forcing everyone to flee. Below, Supreme Hydra learns of his daughters treachery. SHIELD attacks and he sends his Tiger Squad aware that it may mean his own daughter's death.

The Ancient One is revealed to be Dormammu's captive. Dr. Strange's mentor tells Strange he must fight on but can only expect token aid. Dormammu forces Clea to watch Strange's defeat. Strange and Mordo square off and battle. After a time, Dormammu grows frustrated at how Mordo has been out-fought and prepares to strike personally.
