Synopsis for "...The Killer Is My Wife!"
Hank continues to run from his mutated wife, the Wasp. He gets stung, but he is able to grab his ant control helmet and tune it to a frequency that the Wasp can understand and he calms her, causing her mutation to temporarily subside. They are attacked by a kitten and rescued by the evil Doctor Nemesis.
