There is a genius named Art. He worked with Jenny on the clone project. Now, he is developing a way to splice healthy DNA into diseased cells. He believes that he will be able to use it to heal the sick. He has received an offer from a large corporation to buy his technology, but he refused it. His friend Johnny tries to convince him to sell out, but Art turns him down.
The day after, Art's family died in a terrible accident. Art becomes depressed and feels like he has nothing left to live for. He ends up selling the technology and going to work for his friend Johnny.

Art tracks down the killer and almost captures him. However, he is wounded in a shootout. He recuperates with a little help from his friends. He keeps tracking down the killer until he finds him. He also finds his daughter is still alive and rescues her. He is very happy.
