They run into and skirmish with their old ghost nemesis Carpenter who reveals that Genefex sends him a shipment of some substance and is ordered to mix it into the patrons drinks. The hunters grow suspicious and after helping fend off another attack on Genefex sneak into their labs and investigates.
