The Biomen convinces Peebo to use its energy which he agreed as he finally attached to the device again making the Bio Energy from the Bio Robo became maximum in capacity this allows to use the full powered Bio Particle Cut to defeat the King Megas and injuring Doctor Man in the process with one slash.

Meanwhile, Shuichi confronts his father, Doctor Man who tells him to stay close with him when their home planet perishes as he laughs maniacally.

Therefore, the Biomen continues to infiltrate base until they are hit by the trap created by Farrah Cat which also damages their Bio Suits. Despite Farrah Cat's efforts to defeat the Biomen, she ends up being overpowered by the group and being zapped in explosion from both Yellow4 and Pink5's Bio Blasters.
Upon confronting the injured Doctor Man who fantasizes himself to be blown by the Anti-Bio Bomb he had created, Shuichi left with no other choice but to bring the picture between his former human self, his mother, Setsuko and himself as a baby which he tried to recognizes Doctor Man as his former human self as Hideo Kageyama which Shuichi tries to make him remember so long ago.
