Synopsis
  • Tony meets with Lee and learns the history of potential employee Frankie Majors. Tony lets Frankie have one month to prove himself. Frankie works in research & development under Kevin O'Brien. Iron Man's inquiries into Majors' past lead him to Anthony Gardenia, the new Jonah. Gardenia tells Iron Man to warn Majors that he will not let him go straight. Tony congratulates Frankie as he finishes his first day at Stark Industries and goes to see Louise. Later, Tony helps Frankie fend off some of Gardenia's men and takes a bullet for him. The next day Frankie tells Tony that he's quitting and going back to crime. Realizing something is wrong, Tony trails him as Iron Man. Frankie meets with Gardenia and his men, who have taken Louise hostage to force him back into the gang. However, when Gardenia tries to put Frankie in his place Frankie fights back. Iron Man arrives, they quickly best Gardenia and set Louise free. Frankie returns to work for Stark Industries.
