"Learning Curve, Part Two" is the sixth episode of Silver Surfer, and directly follows the previous episode. Originally airing on March 14th, 1998, it was written by Larry Brody and directed by Roy Allen Smith.
Upon arriving at the Universal Library, Mentor's (Cedric Smith) ship explodes. Silver Surfer (Paul Essiembre) saves Mentor, Pip (Robert Bockstael), and Drax (Norm Spencer) and takes them to the planet's surface. Mentor theorizes that the entire planet is a computer and the buildings are actually enormous memory chips. Drax, and android, malfunctions and Mentor fixes them while revealing he is Thanos's brother (an error in the script that the producers didn't realize until it was too late) and he seeks the knowledge of the Watchers to find a way to defeat him.
They wonder where Nebula (Jennifer Dale) and her pirate crew are when they see the captain and her henchman Geatar (Howard Jerome) being chased by enormous green creatures. The gelatinous creatures are destroying the buildings with the information inside. Nebula explains that her entire crew disappeared and they are all that is left. The group teams up and finds the central index. They are greeted by a message from Uatu (Colin Fox). He explains that despite a Code of Non-Interference the Watchers used their knowledge to cure a plague in the Arad Nebula that was destroying all the food. However, a problem with genetic material mutated all the Watchers into the green creatures, dubbed Virals, and that only he was immune. He claims that the beacons, once meant to bring intelligent travelers, have become a trap and that anyone hearing the message is doomed.
Meanwhile, Lord Glenn (Marc Strange) comes to Gamora (Alison Sealy-Smith) so the Draconians, forced from their home in "The Origin of the Silver Surfer, Part Two", can join the Wanderers. They plan to get their vengeance by going after Silver Surfer. At the Library, Nebula and Geatar turn into Virals and Silver Surfer is unable to cure them. Silver Surfer and Mentor soon follow. Pip awaits his fate but is surprised when he and Drax remain fine. The Silver Surfer Viral tries to merge with the others but his Power Cosmic keeps him separated. The other Virals tells him they are connected in a community mind and they have the combined knowledge of everyone ever turned into a Viral.
The Virals explain Silver Surfer still serves Galactus and must give up the Power Cosmic to join them. They then form an enormous version of the cosmic rider and attack him. Silver Surfer eventually reforms himself and counterattacks defeating them. He reunites with Pip and Drax and they take Nebula's ship to flee the planet. Silver Surfer reasons that those seeking knowledge turned into Virals while Pip and Drax were immune because they only wanted to help others. He leaves Pip with Drax because he had put them in danger. As he leaves, Eternity (John Neville) and Infinity (Elizabeth Shepherd) reveal they know that Uatu caused the Viral disease. He explains he continues feeding the Virals more people to gain new information. Infinity for once expresses hope that Silver Surfer will help save the universe when the coming crisis arrives.
