A month later, Victor finds that Jump City is way much different than it was before and is thrown a welcome home party hosted by his best friend Sebastian Cardena as well as catching up with his younger sister Jessica. Everyone has noticed that he hasn't been the same since the incident, and Victor lies about his experiences. He tries to reconcile with his former girlfriend Sarah Simms, who is angry at Victor for breaking up with her. Victor contacts Superman, who speeds in and takes him to a building where he announces his intentions to fight crime. Clark reveals that when he first started fighting crime, he had a mentor and had a team to back him up if things got rough. He also tells Victor to not rush out in the field, instead train in order to get stronger.  Jennifer, gets in trouble at a club owned by a gang called the "100"and Victor is forced to use his powers to rescue her. He begins to train with his old family friend Sampson Reyes, who tells him that if he wants to fight crime then he will help him against Dr. Stone's wishes. A week later, Victor secretly masquerades as a masked vigilante donning a hood along with a leather jacket , attempting to take down crime in Jump City. Victor's first goal is to take down corrupt millionaire Jason Green, who has abducted Sarah and Jennifer. It is revealed that he put out a hit on Sarah since she is revealed to be a Private Investigator who threatened to expose Jason's illegal business deals. With Sampson's help, he rescues the girls from the 100 at the Seahorse Motel. However, he is unable to find Will's boss Ivan. After being brought to the head of the 100, Warren White AKA Great White Shark, by his two underlings Aurora and Joey Lombardi, Ivan is instructed to kill the vigilante. Victor  later obtains Jason's confession and gives an audio recording of it to Sgt. John Dawson , who becomes determined to arrest him, especially when the vigilante gives a recording vowing to be a beacon of hope.
2. "Cut Off"- Criminals, including the Bratva, Italians, and the Triads, have taken advantage of Jump City's circumstances since the arrest of Jason Green. The crime lord Warren White comes up with the idea of kidnapping a young boy in order to lure the Experiment into a trap. Victor assures his father that he isn't connected to the new vigilante who has been fighting crime. However, he learns that the 100 are still running prostitutes at the Seahorse Motel and that his sister and her friend are being targeted as witnesses. Victor asks Sampson to help him find Ivan by hacking the police's database. Will escapes police custody, but is captured and executed by Ivan. LaWanda, a former friend of Victor, tries to free her daughter from the grip of the 100 and he promises to help her. LaWanda is killed when she confronts Lala at the Seahorse Motel. Blaming himself for her death, Victor throws aside his concerns and prepares to go after the 100. Now , after failing to rescue the kidnapped boy, a severely injured Victor is found in a dumpster by medical doctor Yolanda Montez . Meanwhile, Sarah's father, Deputy Chief Lionel Simms , attempts to comfort Sarah following her recent traumatic experiences. Yolanda takes Victor to her apartment, tends to his wounds, and removes his face mask, discovering his identity. Victor discovers that a mobster named Daniel Scott is searching the building under orders from White giving Yolanda enough time to hide Victor and convince Scott that she knows nothing. However, Victor overpowers Scott and takes him to the roof after realizing that Scott doesn't believe her. Victor and Yolanda torture him into revealing the boy's location, before Victor pushes him off the roof and into the same dumpster. He barely survives. Victor enters the building where they are keeping the boy, defeats the guards, and rescues him just before the police arrive.  Using his connections with Lieutenant Cayman after the Seahorse Motel was shut down, Warren gets access to Ivan's cell and strangles him with only one hand unleashing his Meta-Human ability to turn his skin into hard rocks.
3. "Throwbacks"- Victor decides to help John and the police stop a group of bank robbers nicknamed by reporter Danita Wright as the Combatants. Victor deduces that the robbers are actually a family unit, and that the leader Derek McLean worked for Stone Tech before Richard Emerson outsourced 1500 jobs to China and the McLean family lost their home as a result. Feeling guilty, Victor tries to persuade Derek to right his own wrongs, but learns that the family are going to rob another bank. During Victor's confrontation, Derek is fatally shot by White's associate Ronnie Dyer. Outraged by all this, Victor goes after Dyer as the Experiment with Sampson and forces him to reveal his employer, Warren White, who wanted revenge on the gang for robbing one of his banks.

Victor and Silas manage to regain their emotional connection.
4. "Search And Destroy"- Hacking into the police database, Victor  is unable to find any record of White, and so continues to interrogate criminals, searching for answers. White's right hand man Joey Lombardi informs the Bratva of an offer White has made to help with their operations, given their recent failures. Angered at this apparent slight, they attempt to stop the Experiment once and for all by visiting Scott in the hospital. After Scott tells them of Montez, they send men to kidnap her, however, she manages to contact Victor in time to alert him of her kidnapping. The Bratva attempt to torture Victor's name out of Montez, but Victor arrives and defeats the gangsters. Seeing the aftermath of this, the Bratva decide to agree to White's offer, with Viktor going to tell White personally, by barging into the restaurant where White is having dinner with an art gallery curator named Valerie Macallan. White takes a confused Valerie home, and angered at this intrusion and embarrassment, White beheads Viktor and orders Lombardi to send the body to Ishmael Smirnov.
5. "Better To Burn In Hell"- White explains the situation to his allies, including Aurora , of whom he asks a special favor. Another vigilante appears in Jump City and kidnaps one of Victor's targets, a slumlord who had charges dropped against him because he was able to pay off the District Attorney. The new vigilante, who is identified as Quincy Falk, kills the slumlord over a live broadcast. The former kills several prosecutors the same way before going after Sarah. Victor finds out that Falk is using an abandoned subway car, and Victor is able to catch the car and talk Falk out of it. Later after turning Falk over to the JCPD, the vigilante realizes Detectives Stein and Keaton are corrupt when he hears them kill a member of the Bratva. Victor later incapacitates Blake and uses his cell phone to find Ishmael. White pays Leonoid Kovar to reveal to Dimitrov that White killed Viktor, and as they prepare for war against White, their forces are destroyed in a suicide attack by the Triads. Ishmael survives, but the Experiment finds him, as they are surrounded by the police.
6. "Pitfall"- Victor takes out the police when they try to kill Ishmael on White's orders, and he takes Ishmael to an abandoned warehouse, hoping for answers about White, while Sebastian and Sarah are injured in the bombings.

Keaton and Stein take control of the situation and await White's orders. White communicates to the Experiment by police radio, telling him of his admiration for what the vigilante is trying to do, even though it clashes with White's own plans to save the city. White then frames the vigilante by having a police sniper fire on other officers from the roof of the warehouse, including Stein, as Williams and the media look on. Ishmael , in return of Victor avenging Viktor's death, gives him information on Humprey Dumpler-the accountant for all of White's operations – before giving his life so that Victor can escape.
