Shark of the Streets

Before a flashback, Karl welcomes Irony and Derek to solitary confinement, in which he stays with Leckie.

Imprisoned

Karl explains to Irony and Derek why he and Leckie are in solitary confinement. He explains that he used to run a circus show with Stan Marsh, who would use his ability to control people as the centrepiece of the show. However, one night, government agents arrived and captured Karl and Stan, as well as Leckie, who was attending the circus show. When Karl tried to use his ability to escape, the agents saw them and shot at them, killing Stan, and putting Karl and Leckie in solitary confinement. Then, Irony asks what to do next, to which Karl replies that it's time to escape.

Déjà Vu

Karl and Irony discuss the other five prisoners inside solitary confinement and how they'll affect their escape plans. After a few days, when the guards' stockpile of ability-negating drugs have run out, the prisoners' abilities return. Karl and Irony free the other five prisoners and begin their escape attempt; however, Consuela quickly thwarts their attempt by trapping everyone in glass tubes specially designed to counter each of their abilities. Karl uses the earth aspect of his elemental manipulation ability to escape the tube and reappear outside of it. He then frees everyone, and they manage to escape solitary confinement by combining their powers. Then, Irony knocks out a guard, as well as Consuela herself, and the prisoners escape safely.
