Plot Details
Jack decides to spend the night off as Black Shadow and accompanies Daniel to a special event hosted by Daniel’s brother Marcus. Amy also arrives to support them and watch as Marcus gives his toast. Unbeknownst to them, the champagne that Marcus drinks is spiked with nanotech developed by a hacker known as Nano, and Nano reveals that the nanochip inside Marcus will slowly kill him. Fearing the worst, Jack becomes Black Shadow to find Nano but ultimately cannot.

Nano learns that the Black Shadow is looking for him and taunts him publically. Yates learns of this and calls Amy in. Leo also arrives having recovered from his wounds and the two go after Black Shadow. Stoneheart hacks into the system and finds Nano, who is caught by Black Shadow. Nano is resourceful, however, and controls several nanobots which quickly build around Nano, who fights Black Shadow. Nano attempts to break into Black Shadow’s suit and quickly invades it.

Black Shadow is weakened and beaten brutally by Nano. However, Stoneheart uses an anti-virus software and Black Shadow is able to get back up. He defeats Nano and orders him to give him the antidote. Nano does so as Amy and Leo arrive. Black Shadow hands the antidote to Amy and leaves.

Marcus recovers from his injuries and Amy reveals the Black Shadow is responsible for saving his life. As they leave, Marcus is revealed to still have a nanobot in his system and it begins to multiply inside of his body.
