Synopsis
The Man-Wolf survives the fall from the Statue of Liberty and reverts back to John Jameson. John arrives at his fathers's office wounded and worn out. Rejecting Jonah's suggestion of going to a doctor, John goes to his trashed apartment, a result of his change from the night before. He changes clothes and goes over to Kristine's apartment. Soon the police arrive and arrest John, who's is considered AWOL from NASA. As John is taken away, the moon comes out and changes him into the Man-Wolf. The creature then escapes from the police.
