Rebecca enters an appliance store to use a vacuum cleaner against Britney's smoke form, but fails to enter the password to the vacuum's user lock as Britney floods the building with corrosive mist. Before Rebecca dies, her Ether Gear reverses time and allows her to enter the password, trapping and defeating Britney. Experimenting with her time-reversing power, Rebecca discovers its limitations and the dangerous effects on her body when overused, and determines it to be a different ability from her previous time leap to escape Drakken. Aboard Ziggy's satellite, Weisz and Hermit find it being operated by Hermit's past abuser, the human mad scientist Müller. Having since rebuilt himself as an O-Tech cyborg after losing much of his body in a prison escape, Müller paralyzes Weisz and captures Hermit to continue experimenting on her. Meanwhile, Shiki and Homura face Beast's most powerful squad, but the squad is easily apprehended by Justice's subordinates Victory and Creed. Justice recognizes Shiki as an inheritor of Ziggy's power, and has Homura arrested while he prepares to kill Shiki for his open associaton with Elsie.
