Dahlia opens her eyes slowly. The light is so bright making her close her eyes as she gets up from the bed. She rubs her eyes and opens it. She sees herself in a strange room and gets shocked. She thinks;"Wasn't I lying on the street?" She turns and sees the rest on their own beds fast asleep. She wakes everyone up. They get and get surprised too. The room door is opened and a doctor alongside the Inspector walks into the room. Nick goes to meet them;"Where are we?" "You're in the hospital", Inspector replies. "Hope you guys are okay?", asks the doctor. They check themselves and nod their heads to signal yes. "Where's the muscular man?", Carlos asks. "We've disposed of him", Inspector replies. "We were able to destroy him but we weren't able to save those citizens that got burnt to death", Amelia speaks in a sad voice. Inspector replies;"It's none of you guys fault. You did what you could do best." There's silence in the room. * * * The clique are in Carlos room. Four of them are discussing while Amelia is searching the room to find anything fun to play with. A knock is heard on the door. "Come in!", Carlos replies. The door is opened and they see Carlos parents, dressed up to go out. "We're going out for an occasion", his Mum tells them. Carlos replies;"Bye Mum! Bye Dad!" They respond;"Bye Son!" The rest chorus;"Goodbye Ma'am! Goodbye Sir!" They respond;"Goodbye fellas!" They now close the door. The clique wait for a while to be sure they've gone. Amelia finally sees a hand lens and picks it up. Carlos sees her and calls on her;"Amelia!" She turns to Carlos. "That isn't ordinary hand lens", he tells her. "What does it really do then?", she asks feeling amazed. "It's capable of magnifying objects as great as the electron microscope", he replies. "Oh my!", Amelia exclaims. "I don't want you to damage it", Carlos adds. She gives him a frowning look;"What do you think I do? Destroy things?" "It's not like that....", he tries to explain. She cuts in;"How can I make it magnify as great as that?" Carlos sighs, giving up arguing;"That button over there will help you." She checks the handle and sees a button. She chuckles and presses the button. "Thank you!", she teases him. Carlos simply shakes his head in disappointment. Amelia looks round the room as others are on the bed still discussing. "What am I gonna check on?", she asks herself. "Well! Maybe I'll check on every item", she shrugs. She starts checking on any possible item she finds. She makes different exclamations when she sees the magnified version of different items in the room. Yanking looks at her in confusion. "What are you doing, Amelia?", he asks. "I'm making use of this superb hand lens. What else do you see?", she replies. Yanking gives no reply and continues discussion with his friends. Amelia keeps on checking on different objects in the room. She finally checks on a filled Yo-Milk bottle. "Wow!", she exclaims as she sees the magnified bottle. She turns the bottle to view the other parts. She spots a big robot in spider form on the bottle. "Uhmmmm .... Guys! You should come and check this out", she calls on others. They get up till see why Amelia's calling. Carlos asks;"What is it?" Amelia gives him the hand lens. "Check out the Yo-Milk bottle", she says. Carlos does so and sees the robot spider. "What the hell!", he exclaims. "Let me take a look", Nick collects the lens. He gets surprised too. Others also check. "We've gotta take this to the lab", Dahlia tells others. "Good idea!", Amelia replies. Yanking opens a portal and they go inside it. Carlos holds the bottle by the neck to avoid destroying the robot. * * * They're in the lab. Carlos, on behalf of the clique is explaining things to the boss and Smith. Smith collects the lens from Amelia and the Yo-Milk bottle from Carlos. He drops the bottle on a table to check for himself. He sees the same thing and calls out on the boss;"Boss! You've gotta see this!" The boss goes to check and gets shocked when he sees it. "How could that be here?", he wonders. Using the hand lens, Smith uses a pin to remove the robot from the bottle. It lands on a rectangular glass. Still using the hand lens, Smith uses the pin to pierce through the robot spider. The greenish substance spills on the glass, visible to the eye. "Everyone come!", he calls others. They approach where he is. Smith shows them the glass;"This is exactly the same substance we saw earlier, capable of making people sleep." Nick's amazed;"So this is the producer of the substance!" "And it's on a Yo-Milk bottle", the boss reasons. Amelia clicks her fingers;"That's why we always find a Yo-Milk bottle in every single room we investigate in." "Yeah! Because they consumed Yo-Milk before getting missing", Carlos adds. Yanking asks with curiousness;"But how do they get inside the people?" "I'll get to know why soon", Smith assures everyone. The boss takes the hand lens from Smith and check on the glass to see the damaged robot spider.
