Synopsis
While in the desert, Rex ends up investigating a nanite-free zone inside a sandstorm and notices Van Kleiss, Biowulf and Skalamander going into it. When Rex and Van Kleiss get stuck in a sink hole that leads to an underground cavern that is stealing the nanites from them. This forces Rex and Van Kleiss to form a temporary truce. It soon discovered that the center of the sandstorm is draining the nanites from all life and turning them into sand. Van Kleiss still claims that he knows about Rex's past and claims that C?sar isn't the man he is to be, and that he started the Nanite Event. Soon, the two are attacked by rock monsters causing Rex and Van Kleiss to do the back to back method to fight the rock monsters. It is soon discovered that the hieroglyphics and valley are part of a system used by ZAG-RS in another plot to eliminate nanites. Van Kleiss stated that ZAG-RS was originally built as a Nanite Decontamination Unit to eliminate stray nanites by C?sar. Van Kleiss states to Rex that the Omega-One Nanite in him can replicate his own nanites exponentially. As ZAG-RS transforms her programming into a giant robot, Rex ends up fighting ZAG-RS while Van Kleiss weakens ZAG-RS as the sandstorm dies down. Later on, C?sar admits that ZAG-RS was his creation as they interrogate ZAG-RS. C?sar reboots ZAG-RS, but Dr. Holiday notices that its memory has been wiped clean. C?sar states that Van Kleiss must have initiated a program dump when he weakened ZAG-RS, while Rex wonders if what Van Kleiss said about his older brother was true. C?sar reveals to Rex that ZAG-RS' voice is modeled after that of their deceased Mexican mother, Violeta, much to Rex's shock and grief.

Production notes
Rex is 15, and like most 15-year-old boys, he likes cars, girls, music and sports. But unlike most 15-year-old boys, he can make his fists the size of boulders, sprout a jet pack out of his back and turn his legs into a lightning-fast motorcycle. These talents are extremely useful to Providence, a global organization chartered to fight mutant creatures known as E.V.O.s (Exponentially Variegated Organism). Rex is under their care and is their ultimate weapon.
Generator Rex takes place in the aftermath of a global accident, where microscopic machines known as nanites have merged with every living thing. For a select few, the nanites mutate their hosts into monstrous creatures called E.V.O.s.
Rex is one such E.V.O., but unlike the monsters he and Providence battle, Rex has control over his nanites. He alone has the ability to not only control these nanites- allowing him to create amazing mechanical limbs and gadgets that aid him in battle ' but also heal E.V.O.s of their mutation.
Rex's powers are incredible, and his importance to Providence and the world is undisputed. But on top of that, he just wants to be a normal teenager and must balance his adrenaline-fueled adventures with the everyday ups and downs of being 15. Rex is joined by a team of characters including his sidekick, a highly intelligent monkey named Bobo Haha who encourages Rex's mischievous side; his mentor Agent Six, so called for being the world's sixth deadliest man; the brilliant Dr. Holiday, who seems to be the only one that really understands Rex; and Noah, a regular kid and Rex's friend.
Rex's greatest threat is an E.V.O. named Van Kleiss, who with his minions called The Pack sees the nanites and resulting E.V.O.s as part of a greater plan and the future of humanity.
