Billy: Must...get...weapon! Muscles flex, heartbeat accelerates, pupils dilate... Just then, a bacterium is born in his large intestine! Oblivious to the danger facing its host organism, the bacteroide commences on a quest for nutrients! Its search becomes urgent as seconds pass, and its brief lifespan is threatened! Suddenly, out of the darkness, a single glycan-rich food particle drifts toward the bacteroide! Wasting no time, the single-celled organism feasts on the nutrient!

Absorbed into Billy's large intestine, the fatty acid molecules are broken down into triglycerides! Will the energy released be sufficient to tip the balance in Billy Dare's deadly battle against Zoran Marconi? No! But...just them, Billy's thyroid gland releases a stream of triiodothyronine! NEXT Enter: The thyroxine-binding blobulins!!
