No more buts, Hal! Either have the courtesy to be here for me when I need you, or set me free to live a normal life again! It's that lousy Power Ring or me, Hal! The choice is yours!

With Ferris Aircraft destroyed by the Demolition Team, Green Lantern helps the firemen extinguish the flames and attempts to make the perpetrators spit who hired them to attack Ferris. Suddenly, he Dr. Clay Kendall unconscious among the wreckage of the lab, and takes him urgently to Mercy General Hospital.
Hours pass, and the whole Ferris gang waits for news about Kendall. Finally, Dr. Chen walks out of the room and breaks the news that Clay survived, but he won't be able to walk again due to his spinal cord being severed by the explosion. Heartbroken, April walks along with Jake to see her fiancee. Carol and Hal get some time alone, and she snaps at him for not being there to save them from the Demolition Team. Hal tries to excuse himself saying the Guardians gave him no choice, but she leaves him with an ultimatum: preserving his Green Lantern status or his relationship with Carol.
Hal snaps and shoots skyward, destroying useless old satellites to blow off steam. He then decides to ask his friends for help on the matter. He goes to Green Arrow, The Flash, and Superman, all three of them giving him different answers. Oliver, tells him that there's only one Carol Ferris; Barry remains neutral due to him not being qualified to give him advice, and Superman says that super-heroes owe it to the world to use their powers for the greater good.
After thinking it through, Hal visits Carol to say his final decision: quitting the Green Lantern Corps.
