The Professor is upset to learn that his control over Weapon X only extends as far as a three-mile radius. He demands a ten-mile radius, even though Doctor Abraham Cornelius explains that Weapon X will need to be weighed down by larger batteries to power the extended range. Days later, Cornelius demonstrates that when the power is on, the Professor has complete control over Weapon X within a nine-mile radius. When the power is off, Weapon X's body shuts down - essentially "dead meat". Testing the shut down body, the Professor pours a hot cup of coffee on Logan's face without receiving a reaction.

He leads them to the real town of Ploesti, where the Nazis have taken his people captive, and asks for their help in freeing them. With the dawn approaching, Dracula takes Fury and his men back to his castle to rest while they prepare for their siege under the next night's cover. But, while the men sleep, two of them (Dino and Pinky) decide to do some snooping - and they discover that Count Tsepes is the legendary Count Dracula!
