Synopsis:

Piper is on the run, desperate not to be returned to Iron Heights, a possibility he fears even though he has been cleared of his parents' murder. He first looks up FBI agent James Jesse, formerly the Trickster, but gets no help from this quarter; he then makes his way to Quad Cities in Illinois, where he gets a warmer reception from Heat Wave, another former rogue who has gone straight. Heat Wave advises him to contact Flash (who is looking for his friend), but before he can do so, they are interrupted by Agent Jesse, who says he has a proposition for them. Meanwhile, back in Keystone, Flash and Hunter Zolomon (who don't believe Agent Jesse when he tells them he hasn't seen Piper) are interrupted by what looks like a giant beanstalk erupting from the streets.
