Armor Wars is the fifth episode of the second season of the series.
Synopsis[]
When Stane builds duplicates of the Iron Man armors called the Guardsmen (consisting of Force and Shockwave), Tony must reveal they are frauds. But this causes the civilians to start hating Tony. Obadiah Stane holds a news conference about the Guardsmen and says that they can trust the Guardsmen and tells about the Stark International Guardsmen Expo where he will reveal the Firepower armor. Pepper finds out the identities of Force and Shockwave, revealing they are criminals. That day, Stark International Guardsmen Expo began, and people sat down, and Obadiah came and made his move, showing Force and Shockwave but showing the newest armor called Firepower (similar to Firepower) but with the latest weapons. Then Tony suits up and goes to the Expo and fakes to surrender to Stane but instead reveals Force and Shockwave's identity to the world, and with the help of Rhodey (who came later), defeats Firepower. Force and Shockwave surrender. Iron Man and War Machine are the civilian's favorite heroes. Obadiah makes up the lie that Force and Shockwave made up fake identities to use the armor. Stane then goes to the scientists in charge, handing over data on how to work out the bugs in the Iron Monger project armor.

Trivia[]
- Pepper's crush is made obvious to Tony when, in the lab, Tony says, "Pepper, I could kiss you." and her response is, "What is stopping you?" She blushes, and Tony never responds. This displays the possibility of perhaps a new relationship in bloom in which Tony and Pepper begin to date.
- Pepper makes a reference to the Punisher, saying "Take vengeance, Punisher-style." when the Guardsmen are introduced.
