Defeating Rexo with her powers, Flamingo gathers her comrades and escapes the Spider Alien moonbase. Back on Earth, they ditch Ax, who had sold them out to Rexo.

Don't worry, Ax, buddy. I'll get even for you! I'm going to carve all her goodies off before I kill her.

Momma, would you please look at me? There's something I want to tell you... I know you never wanted me. All I am to you is proof you committed a sin seventeen years ago. When I was little I needed you so bad, and I loved you so much but you never had room for nothing in your life -- except your meetings and the lord. You hurt me, Momma. So I tried to hurt you back. I been and done everything you can't abide -- just to make you stop thinking about Heaven and think about me a little. So, all of a sudden, I just decided to start caring about myself. I'm not going to hurt myself trying to hurt you no more. I want you to know that. You don't have to love me back, Momma, but I still love you. I want you to know that, too.
