Complete listed story — includes the ending

1. Hostile Makeover

The Ventures move into the penthouse of Venture Industries' headquarters, VenTech Tower, and Brock is reassigned as their bodyguard. They are accosted by the Crusaders Action League (C.A.L.), who Rusty refuses the hired protection of. The Monarch and 21 go to the tower and drug the pirate captain, getting him re-addicted to tranquilizer. While looking for attractive women, Hank notices one face-down in her pool and uses Brock's grappling gun to zipline to her building, only for her to reveal that she has gills. Hank falls off the line when he waves to her but is rescued by a member of the C.A.L., who mistake Brock and H.E.L.P.eR. for villains and fight them. With the Guild falling apart after the Sovereign's death, Dr. Mrs. The Monarch meets with high-ranking, mutated villain Wide Wale, who lives across the street from Rusty. He agrees to lend his financial support in exchange for a seat on the Council and exclusive arching rights, and she concedes to his terms. Post-credits scene:

2. Maybe No Go

Billy has one of his collectables, the ball from Duran Duran 's " Is There Something I Should Know? " music video, stolen by St. Cloud. Knowing the importance it holds to pop culture, he threatens to send it back in time unless Billy and Pete sell him their company, which they do. The Monarch discovers that several villains are in line to arch Rusty before him, so he and 21 track down one of the villains and threaten her into signing away her arching rights. When they return to his house, the people remodeling it have discovered a secret door in the study that leads to a cave full of gadgets. Desperate for tranquilizer, the captain climbs into a nearby zoo's polar bear enclosure and takes the darts used on the animal. Having fired almost all of the Venture Industries employees, Rusty forces the captain to get clean. Receiving a tip from Shore Leave that Wide Wale is about to arch Rusty, Brock works with Hatred to trick him into stealing a fake valuable, and he returns home to find that they have placed the polar bear inside. Post-credits scene: St. Cloud reveals that he has sold Billy and Pete's company to Venture Industries.

3. Faking Miracles

While looking through J.J.'s inventions, Rusty accidentally frees a swarm of superhuman nanobots that enter Dean. 21 deduces that the cave belonged to the vigilante Blue Morpho, who The Monarch realizes was his father. He attends a Guild event at Wide Wale's but is refused entry because he arrives in costume. Duplicating villain Copycat allows The Monarch to borrow a suit, but splits in two, drugs him, and steals his costume. He breaks into Rusty's penthouse and urinates on his furniture while simultaneously pointing this out to Dr. Mrs. The Monarch, leaving her enraged that The Monarch is seemingly illegally arching Rusty. Hank, now working as a pizza deliveryman, is called to deliver to Wide Wale, and realizes that his daughter Sirena is the woman with gills. He navigates around Wide Wale's aggressive henchman Rocco so he can ask her out, and she accepts, attracted to his risk-taking. Post-credits scene: Dean painfully urinates out the nanobots and learns that with their help, he passed his college entrance exam.

4. Rapacity in Blue

Rusty has Billy and Pete develop a mind control gas that instead causes religious fervor. 21 suggests that The Monarch go out as Blue Morpho so he can take out villains in line to arch Rusty, which he rejects until he sees a tape with his father and Jonas together and becomes bored of Guild paperwork. As Rusty tests his gas on his current arch, Haranguetan, and accidentally gasses Brock, The Monarch and 21, dressed as Blue Morpho and his sidekick Kano, arrive and rescue Billy when Haranguetan tries to kill him. 21 makes Haranguetan fall to his death through the hole in the floor that Wide Wale's arching created. Brock storms over to the apartment of Warriana, a C.A.L. member that he is attracted to but intimidated by, and professes his love for her. Post-credits scene: An elated Monarch and 21 return home to find Dr. Mrs. The Monarch, having come home early. The Monarch allows her to think he went out with 21 to spite her so as to avoid suspicion.

5. Tanks for Nuthin'

Brock wakes up with a dismissive Warriana. While consoling Haranguetan's widow Battleaxe, Dr. Mrs. The Monarch receives footage of Blue Morpho killing him. The Monarch and 21 go to get the Blue Morpho's car out of an impound lot, where Dr. Mrs. The Monarch spots them after taking Battleaxe there to get her and Haranguetan's tank, but they escape when The Monarch accidentally activates the car's flight function. Battleaxe finds the footage and believes that Rusty is the Blue Morpho, taking the tank to go kill him. Rusty's new arch (Dean's Philosophy professor, Think Tank) attacks him and Brock, but Warriana teams up with Brock to save them and they make their relationship official. Battleaxe accidentally runs over Rusty's arch as he leaves and drives into the hole. Dr. Mrs. The Monarch sees the Blue Morpho's car flying around VenTech Tower and grows suspicious of Rusty. Post-credits scene: Dr. Mrs. The Monarch returns home and apologizes to The Monarch for being short with him, darkly claiming "I know who my enemy is."

6. It Happening One Night

Dr. Mrs. The Monarch relays her suspicions that Rusty is the Blue Morpho to the Council, but they do not take her seriously. The Monarch drugs her so he can plant bombs in the vacant lair of the Doom Factory team, Rusty's new arch. The Doom Factory distract Rusty with their bizarre artistic presentations and steal his equipment, summoning their lair, which The Monarch gets stuck on. He escapes as they leave and the detonator falls out of his jacket, setting off the bombs and killing the team. Hank and Sirena go on their date, and Dean, Pete and Billy help facilitate several "random" events that Hank put together to impress her. As Brock and Rocco pursue them, Sirena admits she likes the lengths Hank will go to, and they kiss just as they are found and separated. Post-credits scene: Dr. Mrs. The Monarch wakes up to The Monarch also pretending to have been drugged, and she gets a call from Phantom Limb informing her of the Doom Factory's death, agreeing to put Guild resources into stopping Blue Morpho.

7. A Party for Tarzan

After meeting Christopher Lambert at a party, Rusty invites him to watch a lunar eclipse at VenTech Tower. The Monarch goes to arch his new nemesis legitimately while he sends 21 as Blue Morpho to abduct and kill Rusty's next arch. The Monarch sends a picture of his arching work to Dr. Mrs. The Monarch, while 21 has the villain call her before killing him. She misses the messages as Rusty steps out to watch the eclipse from his balcony, while the Council sets up a sniper rifle to kill him. Wide Wale makes Dr. Mrs. The Monarch shoot him, but Rusty, having stolen the Blue Morpho jacket from a tailor after 21 dropped it off, is saved by the jacket's bulletproof lining. Post-credits scene: As Dr. Mrs. The Monarch berates the Councilmen for their sloppy work, she notices Lambert, having arrived to the party, locked outside VenTech Tower and trying to get in.

8. Red Means Stop

Two villains wake up in a decrepit bathroom full of dead bodies, both chained to pipes. One of them learns that the other has been there for weeks and gone insane, who cannibalizes him like he did the dead men. The Guild and the O.S.I. stage a sting at VenTech Tower to catch Blue Morpho, where Watch, Ward, Gathers, and councilman Phineas Phage disguise themselves as the Ventures and H.E.L.P.eR.. Rusty's feared new arch, Red Death, "attacks." The Monarch and 21 convince Red Death's family to leave their home and call him, pretending to have kidnapped them. He storms the Morpho Cave, forcing The Monarch to explain his recent actions. Red Death expresses sympathy towards his determination and explains that he has to suppress his own urge to kill regularly, advising The Monarch to continue his quest. 21 reveals that he lost the nerve to kill the rest of the villains arching Rusty and that he locked them in the cave's bathroom, unaware that one had gone insane and killed the rest. Red Death agrees to waive his arching rights and not tell the Guild what he learned in exchange for getting to kill the man. Post-credits scene: Guild agent S-464 and O.S.I. agent Kimberly McManus, having fallen in love during the sting operation, agree to reconnect next time they see each other.
