Afterwards, Hoover discovered the group was a robbery gang known as "The Bullet Blondes", pursing them across the town. As he blocked their vehicle on the highway, he climbed on the vehicle and did not give up, until he slid down on the ground when the vehicle suddenly halted. Initially thinking they had killed Hoover, the "Blondes" walked up to him and inspected his injuries. Hoover revealed he survived and claimed he never miss twice, shooting Nate Heywood in the hand. Unfortunately, Heywood turned into steel and deflected the bullet, shooting Hoover in the head and killing him. Hoover was later replaced by a series of androids.
