Synopsis for "How Low Can You Go? (Part II) - What About Bob?"

Deadpool decides to rescue his drowning buddy - no, not Bob -- his assault rifle, He then reluctantly helps Bob out of the water, only to learn later that Bob was actually hired to work alongside Tiger Shark. Deadpool forgives him (for now) and the two set a trap for Tiger Shark. When Tiger Shark comes to finish Deadpool off, the Merc with a Mouth sprays him down with a hail of bullets. Tiger Shark takes off, and Deadpool shoots Bob through the hand for his cowardly betrayal. After which, they become buds again. The real power behind Tiger Shark's recent attacks however is H.A.M.M.E.R. leader Norman Osborn. Osborn pulls together a special team to take Deadpool out.
