This story is the first to foreshadow the eventual development of Madame Rouge's split personality, as she finds herself unable to kill Negative Man when she has the chance, although the Brain explains it away as a defect in the process that gave her her new powers.

Synopsis:
The Brain enhances Madame Rouge's powers of disguise by giving her the ability to elastically mold her flesh into any shape. She then attempts to destroy the Doom Patrol from within by disguising herself first as Elasti-Girl, then as Robotman, and then as Negative Man. Finally, when she masquerades as the Chief, Negative Man sees through her imposture and she is forced to use her stretching powers to flee while the Doom Patrol rescues the real Chief.
