Synopsis:
The Green Lanterns offer to take the male Chosen for an excursion before their final transformation. Floronic Man, now called Floro, joins Hal and Driq at a backyard barbecue with Hal's brothers. John and Katma take Takeo to Detroit to meet John's mother. Arisia and Kilowog escort Gregorio to the moon, so that they can check on the captive Sinestro. Once they have ensured that he is secure, they return to Earth to watch a baseball game.
However, Sinestro is able to siphon off energy from the Green Lantern rings. He creates dangers in the form of a tornado, earthquake, and a rain of fire. The Green Lanterns use more energy to fight these disasters. Sinestro uses that power to free Myrwydden from his cell on Oa.
The wizard comes to Earth. He fights the Green Lanterns, while Kilowog and Arisia send energy twins to Oa to find out how he escaped. Myrwydden the disappears. The Chosen conclude that Sinestro helped the wizard escape. The Corps find Myrwydden on the moon freeing Sinestro. They recapture both villains, then return to Earth.
