Synopsis for 1st story
After bringing Hobie back to the New U, Julia gives him the pills and while waiting for the man to recover, she inspects the New U, and is then telepathically called by the first Madame Web. Cassandra decided not to take the pill and break up, as she claims she saw the future and didn't want to live in it. She later tells Julia to save Hobie and where the New U branch is and then die. Jessica doesn't want to take Hobie with her, but he follows her. Shortly afterwards, a signal goes off at the New U branch that causes the destruction of the clones. Thinking it's Julia's fault, Prowler attacks her, but gets the worst of it.
