| Synopsis | Jenny appears before Congress in the M.A.X. armor and hands over the disk on Krotze as evidence of his dealings with the Club. Steel Hawk captures Krotze and beats him to death with a metal baseball bat, making it appear that Jenny killed him in the armor. Steel Hawk tries to kill Jenny to prevent her from denying the charges, and he nearly succeeds, crippling the M.A.X. armor in the process. However, she manages to shatter his leg, but he is able to flee as the police arrive. Detectives Jenkins and Sloan then arrest Jenny for the murder of Krotze. |
