"All I Can Say Is I'm Sorry" is the sixth episode of the third season of the adult animated superhero series Invincible, and the twenty-second episode overall. The episode premiered on February 27, 2025, on Amazon Prime Video. Directed by Jason Zurek, Dan Duncan, and Shaun O'Neil, it was written by Robert Kirkman. The episode introduces a new antagonist, Powerplex, voiced by Aaron Paul, and explores the emotional fallout of Mark Grayson's (voiced by Steven Yeun) actions as the superhero Invincible, particularly the devastation caused during his battle with Omni-Man in the Season 1 finale.
Plot summary
The episode begins with a flashback to the destruction of Chicago caused by Omni-Man using Mark, as a weapon against civilians. This event is revisited through the perspective of Scott, a GDA employee, who loses his sister Jessica Duvall and niece in the catastrophe. Years later, Scott, now consumed by grief and rage, becomes the villain Powerplex, wielding a suit that converts physical impacts into electrical energy. Blaming Invincible for his family’s deaths, Powerplex repeatedly terrorizes Chicago, demanding Mark’s presence.
Meanwhile, Mark struggles with his role as a superhero, attempting to move forward while grappling with his moral uncertainties. Elsewhere, Rae approaches Rex Splode with a significant life decision, hinting at a deepening relationship between them. Powerplex enacts a desperate plan, staging a fake kidnapping of his wife and son to lure Invincible into a trap. During their intense battle, Powerplex electrocutes Mark, but the fight spirals out of control, resulting in the accidental deaths of Powerplex’s wife and son, whose burned bodies are shown in a harrowing scene—the first on-screen depiction of a child’s death in the series.
Devastated by the unintended consequences of his presence, Mark is forced to confront the ripple effects of his existence as a superhero. The emotional climax sees Mark apologizing to Powerplex, with the line, “I’m sorry. All I can say is I’m sorry.” Powerplex’s arc ends tragically, leaving Mark to reflect on the collateral damage his heroism causes. At home, Atom Eve attempts to console him, but Mark remains withdrawn.
In a mid-credits scene, the supervillain Angstrom Levy is revealed to be alive and orchestrating a new threat. Having survived his apparent death in a previous episode, Levy has assembled an army of alternate-dimension Invincibles, including sinister variants like Mohawk Mark and Sinister Mark, setting the stage for the "Invincible War" teased for the next episode. Levy declares, “This will do,” signaling his intent to unleash chaos on Mark’s world.
