It doesn't matter if this crime I'm participating in is only a small one, a temporary one. It is still a crime against human rights, against free will. Somehow I feel as if I've lost the war right here and now - that by selling out my principles I've rendered our fight meaningless.

Synopsis for "Betrayal"
Nighthawk's agents infiltrate the Squadron Supreme. Their mission— the overthrow of the Utopia Program!
Notes
More drawbacks of the Squadron's Behavior Modification programme are revealed, as Ape X discovers that Moonglow has hacked into the Squadron's memory banks and sent plans of the Behavior Modification Device to Master Menace. As Moonglow is a Squadron member, the behavior-modified Ape X cannot inform on her, and the resulting mental conflict renders Ape X catatonic.
Nighthawk compromises his own principles to behavior-modify Blue Eagle so that he forgets about coming across the Redeemers' plotting.
