This was definitely a switch a mad giant scientists takes Steve and Fitzhugh hostage because he thinks they are helping a rival of his. Intentionally then episode is about a giant holding a grudge against another giant. Murtrah spills the beans about his past failures and being kicked out of the academy.
He develops goggles to help find more survivors but the goggles only work temporary. He thinks Steve and Fitzhugh know more than they let on.
Mark comes in as bait but the team has a plan to destroy the mad doctor\\\'s laboratory with or without Steve.
This episode was very well done and they really did play up the intensity up till the last moments. In the end once again the Giants come up losing. This episode was one of the better ones in my opinion from the first season.moreless
