Creature Commandos' fifth episode, titled "The Iron Pot," opens with Professor Macpherson - who previously backed up Circe's claims about her vision of the future - flirting with a female student during a lecture.
She's acting very inappropriately and, while discussing Themyscira, reveals an intense interest in lesbians. Rick Flag Sr. and Eric Frankenstein are watching from outside and realise something isn't right. The A.R.G.U.S. agent reminds the monster that if he helps him save Princess Ilana Rostovic, he'll put in a good word with The Bride.
In flashbacks, we return to Eric and The Bride's fight as Dr. Frankenstein's house burned down around them. It's revealed that Eric made his way to a nearby lake and was later found by an old blind woman who helped him heal. He finds peace with the old gypsy woman and her dog but ultimately decides to leave so he can find his Bride.
She cries and begs him to stay; for some reason, he's locked the dog outside and explains that he doesn't want to leave her alone...and proceeds to cave her head in before leaving with the pooch.
Back in Pokolistan, Task Force M arrives and claims they're there to protect the Princess. After Rick and Eric inspect Macpherson's home, they discover her rotting corpse and conclude that she's been swapped out for a shapeshifter.
The hero gets a message to the Princess and Alexi drives the team away from the castle; with that, Doctor Phosphorus brutally murders him and a fight ensues between the group and Ilana's soldiers.
While this is going on, the "Professor" returns home and is revealed to be Clayface. He discovers Rick and Eric, and makes short work of the duo; however, just as things start looking bleak for them both, Frankenstein's monster electrocutes and kills the villain who will soon headline his own DCU movie.
Rick, badly injured, is shown dying in Eric's arms (will he survive his injuries? We think so...), Task Force M is separated and on the run in Pokolistan, and the Princess orders her men to find and kill the team as the episode ends.
