Baiul wants to execute Fairchild and Pitt while Lynch prefers to keep them captive. Ivana snaps and shoots Lynch's Black Razors. Fairchild uses the moment to strike, but Ivana summons more Keepers. The other Gen 13 members watch from above and soon join the battle, fighting back with their powers. Pitt prevents a Keeper from killing Timmy and then escapes the compound with the boy. Lynch summons his special armored troops, the Black Hammers, to hold off the Keepers and leads Gen 13 away from the fight. He explains the history of Project Genesis and reveals that he was a member of Team 7 along with their fathers. IO exposed Team 7 to Gen-Factor, giving them superhuman powers, and now wants to recruit and control Team 7's children. Lynch helps Gen 13 escape through a garbage chute and then prepares to confront Baiul.
