Synopsis for "Reprise: The Patchwork Man"

Gregori Arcane survived a fall[1] and found himself hiding in a department store. He startled two employees opening up and security fired a shot that grazed his head, knocking him out. The security men turned him over to the police who were visited by a Dr. Chomes who demanded that they release his "patient" into his custody. Dr. Chomes conducted some painful experiments upon the Patchwork Man and the pain caused him to break his restraints and brush past Dr. Chomes and his assistant. Outside, a good Samaritan cab driver picked him up and drove him away from his tormenters. Dr. Chomes took down the license plate number and told his assistant they would acquire the man's address in the morning.
