Synopsis for "War of the Monsters, Conclusion: Storming the Gates of Hell!"

Frankenstein and Nina are at the planet's ocean shore. They are then contact by Father Time and Ray Palmer, who they explain to them that the planet is not a planet at all, but a massive living telepathic entity that had been taken over by the three "titan" creatures and their offspring, and is dying from being leeched away from the creatures. In which it is another reason the creatures want Earth as their new host.

Meanwhile, the Bride, Griffith, and Velcoro are fighting hordes of ogre creatures not so dissimilar with their previous encounter with the spider creatures. The three can not fight their way through this to the ogre titan on their own and request S.H.A.D.E. for reinforcements. Father Time declares to Dr. Belroy to prepare to launch the "Toybox", in which Palmer argues that it is in the prototype stage and haven't been field-tested. However, Father Time insists this is a better time.

In the ocean, Frankenstein and Nina swim to the sea monster titan and encounter its spawns. As Frankenstein prepares to attack, the sea monsters suddenly swims towards Nina and instantly becoming docile towards her; thinking that she is their "mother". This allows Frankenstein and Nina to easily continue on their search for the titan.

Back on land, the Toybox is launch to where Bride, Griffith, and Velcoro are, and unleashing its contents: two heavily weaponize War Wheels and a squadron of G.I. Robots that overwhelms the ogre creatures. This causes to awaken the ogre titan, a large cyclops-like behemoth.

Back at sea, Frankenstein and Nina, along with the sea monsters following after them, find the sea monster titan; in which it is also in a transfixed state towards Nina. This allows Frankenstein to easily slay the creature.

While on land, Bride plans ahead in having the War Wheels drive into the ogre titan's knees, and ordering Griffith and Velcoro to blinding the ogre's single eye. Velcoro carries Griffith over the titan and drops him on the creature's eye, where Griffith claws it and blinding the titan. The War Wheels smash into the creature's knees and causing it to fall over on its back. Finally, the Bride have the G.I. Robots to finishing off the wounded ogre.

With both titans dead, the planet is free and heading back to wherever it came from. However, Frankenstein, Bride and the Creature Commandos have only three minutes to spare to make it back to the portal or they will be permanently trap in Dead Space. Fortunately, Khalis has awaken and pilot the Egg to pick up his teammates. They return to the Ant Farm at the last second as the portal closes. Palmer congratulates them on their efforts and asking Frankenstein of what he thinks of his new field team. Frankenstein only reply "they'll do."
