Synopsis for "Inside Out / Outside In"
The Draal once again connect Guy into the Xanoglyph to probe his mind. But this time, Guy attempts to overwrite his memories, projecting an image of his present self in his past. He meets his 16-year-old self and tries to explain his plan to feed the Draal clone with a code word to disable him. However, Guy's time runs out, and he gets back from the trance.
In the containment cell, the Green Lanterns progress on their plan B, which involves using the decapitated head of the robot RRU-9-2. Sooner than they can finish some details, the Draal take Guy away again.
This time, Guy revives the day his cop brother, Mace, beats and warns him to straighten out and avoid illegal problems and cause more problems to their parents. He then gives him money to buy new clothes and look for a job. Guy's mind flashes forward in time, and he remembers how he found his way to college and played in the football team of Michigan U, but he was still invisible to his father. One day, after handing the victory to his team, Guy's pride fades away when he learns that Mace was shot and is now in a critical state.
The trip through Memory Lane ends, and Guy returns to his cell. The Green Lanterns finally carry on with their escape plan, and they break free. It doesn't take long to encounter The Draal, but they beat them and take their weapons. As they rush to the lab, they find a surprise: Guy's doppelganger is active, and he wears Guy's ring.
