Dr. Sebastian Caine successfully turns himself invisible during the experiment, becoming the first human subject in the project.
Caine begins to exhibit psychological changes and increasingly unstable behavior following the invisibility procedure.
The research team realizes Caine has become a threat and starts planning to reverse the invisibility process.
Invisible Caine sabotages the lab and pursues other team members, displaying violent and erratic behavior.
Caine is ultimately killed after a deadly confrontation in the lab led by the remaining scientists.
