Shifu Pigsy manages to reattach Marcus's head to his body before he reverts to human form and dies. He blasts away Batman and Robin with a gust of wind and flies them away. Marcus tells him he wants nothing to do with his powers or the destiny Pigsy claims he has. He pulls off the circlet and goes home. Meanwhile at the Iceberg Lounge Marcus's parents go to the Penguin's office only to find him fully possessed by the Golden Demon and consuming the qi of his employees. They run away before they are noticed, and at dinner they and Marcus both pretend nothing unusual happened that day. The next morning Marcus wakes up to find the circlet wrapped around his chest. At school Kaya introduces him to Damian Wayne, who quizzes him about the Monkey Prince, revealing that CCTV footage shows Marcus jumping into the pool, the Monkey Prince flying out, and then Marcus climbing out shortly after. Marcus claims to not know anything about Monkey Prince and Damian leaves to take a call from his father. Kaya asks him why he jumped in the pool and Marcus claims that swimming fully clothed is his way of dealing with stress and she invites him to a counselling group. Marcus also uses his powers to send a swarm of clouds to harass Rizalino. Marcus goes to the faciities office and meets Mr Zhu, who tells him not to abuse his powers by taking revenge on Riz, and reveals that he used his shapeshifting abilities to impersonate Marcus and protect his identity the previous day. Marcus asks him to remove the circlet but Pigsy tells him he can't, although Marcus can wear it anywhere on his body he wants. Pigsy causes the circlet to constrict on Marcus's head and tells him that he will loosen it if Marcus can take an envelope from his hand. He flies away and Marcus changes into monkey form and chases after him. The police find Penguin's victims in the sewers, and Batman concludes that a new serial killer is loose in the city. The Penguin, now calling himself Golden Horn Penguin, is unable to satisfy the demon's hunger even after eating dozens of people. Two demons appear, bringing a message from their master, The Great Ruler of Flame Planet. The master tells Golden Horn Penguin that the only way he can satisfy his hunger is to cosume the qi of heroes, staring with Batman.
