Synopsis for "Alpha: Omega" Part 3

Snowbird is revealed to only be an illusion created by Shaman to scare Alpha Flight off, and after she fades away, Gentry and Alpha Flight discuss what their plan of action is to be. Inside the Hell Pounder, Weapon X drags Huxley along so he can help him get out of his suit - meaning the deadly virus inside him will spread. The original Alpha Flight also plan their moves, and Aurora reveals how unstable she is. Both Guardians tell their respective teams that they think the motives of the other team is pure, as they have some kind of connection, before Manbot begins to blow up - thankfully, Radius is able to seal Manbot inside his force field, blocking the air and putting out the electrical fire. The original Alpha Flight arrive back on scene, and the two teams battle, but when the Hell Pounder is activated, they realize they have more important things to deal with. Judd, Flex and Ghost Girl go in search of Huxley, and the only way into the Hell Pounder control room is for Lilli to phase herself into a wall, and the men to pass through her, embarrassing Flex. Aurora flits about through the complex, only for Weapon X to catch her, and using his powers he removes the virus from her, as he needs to be whole when he attempts suicide. Huxley boasts that he is going to alter Weapon X’s plan so that when he releases the virus, he will be able to take over the world. Weapon X passes by the heroes, headed straight for the deep pit beneath the Hell Pounder where he can be relieved of his pain. Alpha Flight think he intends to release his virus, but a field comes between them and Weapon X so they cannot stop him. However, an exhausted Aurora returns and explains that Weapon X isn’t going to harm them - that he wants to kill himself. Weapon X confirms this, before diving into the pit. Alpha Flight urge him to come out and let them help him, but he doesn’t see any other way. The younger Guardian devises a plan involving everyone to flush Weapon X out of the pit, and they do so, but Manbot has a systems failure, and cannot carry out his part. Heather manages to flush Weapon X out of the pit, but without Manbot holding in the fail-safe button, the Hell Pounder is still going to detonate, so Weapon X jumps back in to save Alpha Flight and all of Canada. The next day, Radius, Flex, Ghost Girl and Murmur discuss the possibility of them being fired from Alpha Flight with the originals back, and Radius apologizes to the Sasquatch who died while protecting him. Gentry informs the Guardians’ that one of them is the original, while the other is a synthoid, but feels that both have done such a great job, does not want to tell them which is which. Huxley returns to everyone’s chagrin, and Heather announces that she is going on a date with Judd, surprising both the Mac’s. Flex, Radius, Ghost Girl and Murmur arrive for the meeting in which they express their concerns about being fired, before Alpha Flight are treated to a mighty celebration in which Gentry explains that too many Alphans might be a problem if someone was trying to write stories about them, but that the Department would never allow that to happen, and informs everyone who wants to stay, that they are welcome. ‘Three cheers for Alpha Flight!’
