Princess Sally, King Max, and Prince Elias meet with Dr. Quack. He tells them that Queen Alicia's cryogenic freezing has stopped her illness from making her worse. Max tells Sally he didn't tell her about Elias so she wasn't saddened by the likely death of her brother. When Max heard rumors of Elias and Alicia being alive he sent Geoffrey St. John to see if it was true. He then announces Elias as his successor.
Sonic, Nate Morgan, Tails, Rotor, Bunnie, Antoine, Amy, and Sally go to the Juice-Bar. They are being stalked by mysterious figures whose code names are letters of the Greek alphabet. Sonic informs Antoine about his father's status. A patron is obnoxious to Nate because he is an Overlander.
Max, Elias, and Geoffrey that the escapees from Devil's Island Gulag could not have survived as a plane has crashed near the island with no survivors.
Sonic and company are attacked by the shady figures. They are revealed to be Kodos, Arachnis, Nack, Drago, Sleuth, and the Fearsome Foursome. Nate is kidnapped and Sergeant Simian throws a grenade at Sonic threatening to kill him, and many around him...

Lupe's journal entries reveal that she and the Wolf Pack have been trapped in the abandoned Overlander city for ten days while a storm has raged around them. Their low supplies have led to rationing and scavenging and she has still not come to a decision on what to do with Aerial and Athena, though Reynard seems eager to abandon them. While playing with a ball, Aerial disturbs Canus and Diablo's sleep. Diablo takes advantage of the opportunity to try and teach Aerial a lesson about being kind to others.
Elsewhere, Lupe and Reynard search for supplies in an abandoned house. Reynard tries to convince Lupe that they aren't responsible for the Overlander girls. Lupe disagrees, believing that others would show similar compassion for abandoned wolf cubs and that abandoning the girls would make them as bad as those they fought against to protect their homeland. Reynard remains unconvinced, but Lupe pleads for him to have faith. They head back to their shelter where Aerial and Athena happily greet Lupe.
Celebrating their successful supply run, Canus cooks up a stew for the pack. As the group sits down to eat, Lupe reminds her team that they have much to be grateful for and work ahead of them. Having discussed the matter with the whole pack, Lupe announces her decision to incorporate Athena and Aeriel as members of the pack. Feeling a burning passion, Lupe tells her pack that they will soon return to their homeland and reunite with their families.

Off Panel
Geoffrey St. John and Wombat Stu burst into J. F. Gabrie's office. Stu watches the door while Geoffrey searches him. They deem the room as secure, letting Sally walk in and check over the script for an issue. Gabrie asks if they had to do that every time Sally entered the room and Sally tells him that she is not impressed with the script for "Sonic's Night Out".
