Added DiffLines:
The title is a play on "cloak and dagger", likely referring to the multiple deceptions practised by the Thanagarian government, as well as referring to the original Hawks, who recovered their memories by seeing the dagger used to kill their previous incarnations.

Draft summary
Added DiffLines:
Paul visits Thanagar in company with several friends, including both the modern Hawks and the reincarnated Halls. While there, he discovers a cult that worships the Seven Devils and is trying to use their power to build enhanced soldiers. He assists the Thanagarian government to put down the cult.
The final chapter in the episode contains a conversation between Thanagarian government officials, revealing that the whole situation was a secret test of Paul's power, and that the cultists had been in contact with the government, seeking to have their achievements officially and publicly accepted. Since Paul was able to defeat the cult's giant warrior champion, their overtures will likely be denied.
