Despite his reluctance, he’s drawn further and further towards the side of heroism when his next door neighbor’s abusive relationship spills over into his own life. When the neighbors son finds out about Kevin’s secret identity and promptly disappears, events culminate into a standoff between Crystal, her abusive partner Travis, and Tiger mask himself.
