The Odds, now reduced to the Captain, Armstrong, Merv and the Blue Knight, finally went on the low-key road-trip in the American countryside that Armstrong had initially suggested, trying to forget their troubles and simply enjoy life, camping out in the countryside at night. Eventually, however, during one particular pit-stop near a creek, they ran into trouble as a duo of corrupt, drug-trafficking policemen knocked out Armstrong, Merv and the Knight with tranquiliser darts and took them prisoners, afraid that the heroes would meddle in their trafficking. | |||

([[COMIC]]: ''[[Road Trip Of No Return (comic story)|Road Trip Of No Return]]'')]]They missed the Captain, however, who had gotten knocked out as part of an unrelated accident while away from the group; teaming up with [[Jung-La|a young, naïve and surprisingly athletic Sheriff]], who knew nothing of her subordinates' corruption, he found the drug-dealers' lair and helped his friends break out, after which they easily overpowered the villains — while their leader [[Druggo]] had previously claimed to have superpowers, the Blue Knight quickly realised that he was simply delusional and knocked him out in a single punch. The Odds then went for a midnight swim in the creek with the Sheriff, who needed some time to relax and rethink things. As he advised her on how to deal with this betrayal, the Captain realised that he needed to take his own advice to her to ultimately “just keep going”, and decreed that the Odds should return to New York as there was “work to be done”.
