Synopsis for "Loss & Found"

One day earlier, after the Seven Soldiers of Victory lost one of their own, they debated recruiting Sideways. Later, in Gotham City, the GCPD visited Derek's home and asked his father to visit her body. Derek insisted on joining them, but his father insisted that he remain at the house and that he would call his phone. He looked at his phone and saw that he had twelve missed calls from his late mother. He rifted the Gotham City Morgue as Sideways and spoke to his mother's corpse, knowing that she could not hear him. Derek revealed that he was Sideways and apologized to her. When he heard someone about to open the door, he disappeared.

One week later, Derek decided to go to school even though his father allowed him not to. Derek also ignored Ernie's calls and texts and when he met her at school, he claimed that he needed nothing except for people to stop bothering him, although he wanted to hide his plan to catch his mother's killer and didn't want to get her involved. As he attempted to brush off Ernie, Freddy grabbed him and said that at least his real mother was not the one who died, provoking him. Derek punched Freddy and when another student claimed that nobody cared about his mother, he created a rift under a waterfall and flooded the school.

Then, the six remaining members of the Seven Soldiers of Victory arrived and briefed him and asked him to help them in exchange for erasing the memory of the past hour from his fellow students. Zatanna planted the location of the Manhattan Guardian in Derek's mind before he joined the team and was about to rift them all to where they wanted to be.
