After the crooks escape, Elongated Man visits a coin collector. While the man denies knowledge about the theft, Ralph finds evidence that the other crooks are working for him. Without being able to voluntarily use his powers, Ralph stops the crooks with his reflexes. After they are apprehended, Ralph traces his power problems to a bad batch of Gingold.
