Synopsis for "Revenge, Part 3"

Because of his contact with the Black Vault, Superman is trapped in a hallucination where he's surrounded by an army of undead comprised of his loved ones. Superman tries to appease them, but to no avail.

Somewhere else, Cyborg Superman talks Zod into joining his Revenge Squad, baiting with the procuring of a Phantom Zone Projector. Zod makes clear he will not take Henshaw's orders, but he agrees grudgingly to work with them.

Superman snaps out of his nightmare and finds out that Zod was prisoner in Belle Reve and now he's free. Superman calls Waller out on her actions, but she retorts she does what she will do to keep people safe. Knowing an argument would be pointless, Superman flies off.

Superman finds Zod, Cyborg Superman and the Eradicator and swoops down on them. The trio of villains fight back. Their battle is broadcast live by a news chopper and watched by several members of the Superman family: Kara, Lois, Jon, Kong Kenan... and even Lex Luthor.

Superman does his best although he appears to be handicapped somehow, and he's getting overwhelmed by the trio of villains. He has no choice but to make his escape. Zod wants to go after him, but Cyborg diplomatically suggests to marshal their forces and plan.

Superman heads back home and finds his wife and son. He tells Lois and Jon the Black Vault has blinded him.
