Recently captured by the Animator, the New Mutants are trapped on the island of Paradise. The insane scientist Animator who has been creating various lots of animates (half human, half animals of various stages) has decided to try his skills on working on mutants. He destroys Lot 6, a small group of smaller animates. Cameron Hodge, the Animator’s employer, calls him on the video screen, and asks questions as to why he has looked up information on the New Mutants. He lies, trying to keep Hodge away from the island and the animal projects he was not supposed to be making. Not trusting him, Hodge and his crew make their way towards paradise.
