Synopsis Nightmask is pulled to northern Wisconsin by the mind of Walter of the ESPeople. Walter faints in the process and the ESPeople assume Nightmask is an attacker. Because of the ESPeople use their powers to create illusions of their costumes, Keith assumes he is in a dream, but he finds that he can't control anything and is overpowered by the group. The ESPeople wipe his mind of the encounter and drop him off on a road some distance away.
