Smith briefly takes a couple of hostages and is able to escape from their apartment’s balcony, getting away with Eagly, Harcourt, and Adebayo. Economos changes Smith’s fingerprint’s in the police system to point to Auggie, and Adebayo bribes the couple that Smith took hostage into identifying Auggie as the man who took them hostage. The police arrest Auggie, and in prison, he is hailed as the “White Dragon” by white inmates. Smith realizes that the woman only tried to attack him after she saw the dossier he had on his assassination target. Feeling shunned by the team, Smith returns to his trailer and is greeted by his one-time crimefighting partner Vigilante who attempts to cheer Smith up by inviting him to target practice. They later learn that the device from the woman’s apartment is a miniature spaceship.

Summary
Murn briefs Smith on their first mission: to assassinate United States Senator Royland Goff, who is a suspected “Butterfly”, as well as his wife and young children if they are proven to be Butterflies as well. Smith shows hesitance about killing children despite previously saying that he was willing to do so for “peace”. Smith and Harcourt stakeout the Goff’s house and are soon joined by Vigilante, who secretly followed the team. When the Goff family are seen displaying alien-like behavior, Murn orders Smith to assassinate them all but Smith is unable to do so. Vigilante takes over and successfully kills the wife and children, but Goff’s bodyguard Judomaster intervenes and incapacitates Smith and Vigilante before Goff is killed. Inside the house, Goff tortures Vigilante, whose secret identity is revealed to be Adrian Chase, to force Smith to reveal information. They are interrupted by Murn, Harcourt, and Adebayo which gives Smith the opportunity to free himself and kill Goff. Meanwhile, Economos incapacitates Judomaster. A butterfly-like creature emerges from Goff’s corpse.
