Synopsis for "May I Have This Dance With the Devil?"

Aboard the U.S.S. Excelsior Jason and Roy fight off an armada of H.I.V.E. soldiers to get to a bomb which is being carried on-board.

Several hours earlier they were sat in Tara Battleworth's office discussing the nature of Duela who was undergoing therapy at Tara's request. Whilst Duela antagonised her clinician Roy and Jason learned of the job about the Navy vessel from Noelle, a system analyst aboard the ship, only, they don't trust her so Jason and Roy sneak into the Pentagon to validate her info.

Back aboard the ship, as Roy plays with the bomb's main panel, its creator the H.I.V.E. Regal announces himself but just before he and Jason fight Roy disables the bomb by stabbing it repeatedly with arrows. Meanwhile, Duela's therapist clears her for duty claiming that - while having the potential to be worse than The Joker - she needs the Outlaws and Tara agrees.

At a medal awarding ceremony for Roy and Jason they tell Duela she is back on the team, elated she dives underwater to a cave system and retrieves her mask having discarded it to dupe the others and now she vows to be a bigger, darker and sicker person.
