Loss is the 19th episode of the first season of Green Lantern: The Animated Series. It aired on January 26, 2013.

Overview[]

The heroes attend a rebuilding ceremony between the Guardians and the Red Lanterns on their capitol planet, Ysmault. However, a rampant malfunctioning Manhunter threatens to derail the fragile state of peace between both sides.[1]

Synopsis[]

As Shard is reintegrated into Ysmault, the Science Director gives a speech about rebuilding the planet. However, Zilius Zox points out of absence of Appa Ali Apsa. While the Science Director cites scheduling conflicts, this causes some discontent among the present Red Lanterns.

On the Interceptor, Kilowog is displeased they have to go to Ysmault to attend the ceremony. Hal assures him that their presence is a symbol of their alliance and a chance for peace. Kilowog retorts that he sounds like a politician, or rather, a liar, and questions the wisdom of going into Red Lantern space with all the Manhunter activity. Hal admits that they don't actually know about it and Appa thinks it is best if they never knew.

While Bleez tries to convince Zox to kill the Science Director, the latter discovers a functional Manhunter on Ysmault, but manages to distract the Red Lanterns are prevent them from noticing it for the moment.

Razor requests a detour to his abandoned home planet, where life is starting to return. Aya follows him and they share a moment until Hal interrupts them through Razer's ring.

When Interceptor arrives on Ysmault, the Science Director expresses disapproval of Aya, but moves to more pressing matters: the Manhunter. The crew arrive at the spot just in time to see it flying towards the city. While they manage to disable it, they are discovered by Zox. Kilowog knocks him out and they bring him on board the Interceptor.

The Science Director visits the Interceptor and find out that they have taken Zox. Zox accuses them to treachery but Hal tells him if the Manhunters - and the Anti-Monitor controlling them - are their weapons, they would all be dead by now.

Aya informs the group that the Anti-Monitor has detected the ship, and it turns its head to look at them. The ship turns around and flees with Manhunters in pursuit. Aya says that it will take at least four minutes for ultrawarp to be ready.
