File:Alpha Flight Vol 1 61 001.jpg

Description
Vindicator and Box attend an inquisition held by the Canadian government where they are requested to explain recent actions and plan Alpha Flight’s future. While some of the committee investigating Alpha Flight are on the heroes’ side, many are not, and try to get the message across that Alpha Flight are a menace, while Heather reiterates that all Alpha has ever done is defend their country, and want to do it without the government spying on them. The debate is televised live and is watched by people all over Canada and the rest of the world, including the X-Men, Avengers and Fantastic Four. The Jade Dragon tries to stick up for Alpha Flight before Heather gives her final verdict, that Alpha Flight will not be controlled by the government, even if it means rejecting funding. She invites the Jade Dragon to join her team, but he declines as he is unsure what he is going to do. Heather tells Jeffries that Alpha Flight doesn’t need funding, as they can survive off the insurance money she received following Mac’s death, and Walter Langkowski’s fortune, before asking him to marry her - Jeffries accepts. Wanda and the Betans are having troubles all over Ottawa, reacting to the public’s views of what is happening to Alpha Flight, while Wanda tries to get at her fortune, a fortune she held as Walter Langkowski. The bank does not allow her to withdraw her money. Things get worse when she goes to visit her ex-wife, Veronica. Although Veronica believes that Wanda really is Walter, she knows that no one else will, meaning she will not have to part with any of the fortune. The Purple Girl and Manikin also plan what they will do in case Alpha Flight does break up - the Purple Girl can go back home, and will take Laura Dean and Goblyn with her, while Manikin is going to return to medicine, leaving Kara with a possibly broken heart.
