Synopsis for "Infinite Lies"

On Earth 0, Cameron Chase goes to the Hall of Justice to speak to Superman and Batman. She tells them that after the latest Crisis people are afraid, and not content to just trust the heroes will take care of it. An alarm cuts the conversation short and Superman carries Cameron out of the Hall and flies away at superspeed before she can react. Director Bones calls her and tells her to contact the recently returned Captain Atom and recruit him to the D.E.O.

Meanwhile, Justice Incarnate are gathering the pieces of the interdimensional prison ship which Thomas Wayne escaped from. The ship somehow crashed and the debris was scattered across the Multiverse. Wayne remembers being abducted from Arkham Asylum on Earth 0 by X-Tract and managing to fight his way to an escape shuttle, but he doesn't know what happened after that. Harbinger alerts him and President Superman that a large chunk of the ship has been detected on Earth 22, but their contact is not responding. The two head to Earth 22 and are attacked by Magog, who was previously reformed but appears to have been reverted to villainy by the recreation of the Multiverse.

Back on Earth 0, Alan Scott has called in the Totality for help after his daughter's disappearance. Mister Terrific tells Obsidian that many people associated with the JSA or Infinity, Inc. have mysteriously disappeared, something the Totality have been keeping secret from the superhero community. Todd is frustrated by the lack of action and insists on interrogating their old enemy Vandal Savage, who rudely tells Alan to get rid of Todd as he is not part of the Totality. Angered, Alan blasts Savage away and resigns from the Totality, and father and son head off to look for Jennie.

Meanwhile, Roy Harper is trying to figure out how to use his new Black Lantern ring. Remembering some advice Hal Jordan gave him when he was a child, Roy activates the ring and flies into the air. He creates a construct of a bow and some targets shaped like his old enemies and practices his aim, annoyed that one of his shots is slightly off the bullseye. He asks the ring why he was chosen, and in response it creates a huge energy construct, showing the faces of Darkseid, the alternate Thomas Wayne, Barry Allen, Psycho-Pirate and Lian Harper. However the construct shows Lian as a teenager, when she supposedly died as a young child. Roy realises Lian is alive and demands the ring tell him where she is, but suddenly he hears Darkseid's voice in his mind and the ring takes control of him. His face changes to the typical corpselike appearance of a Black Lantern and the Corps symbol on his chest transforms into an Omega, and he flies off to answer Darkseid's call.

At Metropolis Air Force Base, Chase meets with Captain Atom and asks him how he is alive, when he supposedly died during the events of Death Metal. Atom claims to have been restored to life when the Multiverse was remade and declines her offer to join the D.E.O, as he has decided to retire. Chase appeals to him based on their history together, although they have never met before. He reminisces with her about a supposed mission they went on that never actually happened, confirming her suspicions that he is an alternate version of Captain Atom from another reality. When she confronts him he reveals that he is trying to hide out from Darkseid on Earth 0, and now that he has been found he breaches his own containment skin, creating a nuclear explosion that seemingly kills them both.
