Mindbender! Nothing happened!
I told you, I've never attempted
a transformation like this.
Mindbender never attempted,
never attempted, never attempted.
As usual, Mindbender, you've put too much faith...
too much faith, too much faith
in organics... organics...
...when what is needed is a mechanical solution!
Like my supercharged magnetic induction fields!
Induction!
What's he doing to Hawk?
Magnetic, magnet induction fields
Over Kill's gone mad!
Well, at least he isn't boring.
Now that's more like it.
Meet Cobra's newest general,
Venomous Maximus!
Hawk?!
Is that you?
Duke?
Help me.
Stop me before I..
No!
You are my general, and I say...
attack!
I do not need your orders
to lead my venomized forces against G.I. JOE!
Release the prisoners.
It will make for a more interesting game.
Duke, what do we do?
We fight for our lives
Kamakura!
Get out of there!
Well done, General
Now bring victory to Cobra by...
Victory is mine.
Keep firing into the snow!
We can lose these guys in the steam cloud!
Hey, guys.
That's ten minutes!
Time to get our man Duke.
And I was just getting warmed up.
You are weak, Duke
You have no chance against me,
Just as your pathetic forces will have no chance
against my venomized troops.
His venomized troops?
Hmm...
Duke, Kamakura. Time's up.
Have you found Hawk?
This is Duke.
Cobra's mutated Hawk, venomized him into some kind of monster!
We're on our way!
Negative! I say again, negative!
It's too dangerous.
All personnel withdraw.
That's an order.
Oh, how disappointing.
We missed the floor show.
I'll dispose of this one,
free of charge
This one is mine.
No, no, no
Duke is mine,
and I will deal with him my way.
Is that understood
General?
Very well.
Understood... for now.
Thanks for the fast evac, Wild Bill.
This operational command center is a total write-off.
Only thing we can do is chop everything back to JOE H.Q.
ASAP.
Copy that, Scarlett.
Wild Bill out.
See anything interesting?
Maybe. I think that... Aah!
You're using a kung fu grip on me?
If you want to keep that arm, Doc,
you've got some questions to answer.
Copy?
Copy!
Question number one: What's a veterinarian
from the National Zoo doing
in an abandone d army base?
I bet whoever tranked my animals
are the same ones who trashed your secret base.
I don't know anything about a "secret base," Doc.
Look, I don't give a flying fish
about the military
or your classified G.I. JOE unit.
I did two tours as a Navy SEAL
and that was plenty.
Only reason I'm here is to find out
why someone stole DNA samples from my animals.
DNA samples? If you've been holding back
vital information about...
Holding back?
I'm here, aren't I?
It's amazing you could convert that wreck
into this hover craft so fast, Gung-Ho.
Thanks to Hi-Tech's design
and the proper motivation, eh?
Hang on, JOEs!
We're hitting the water.
They've stopped firing?
Yeah, like they're afraid of water...
Or something in it
Heads up.
It's Flint and the launch team.
Not the whole team.
Tunnel Rat's missing.
Ahoy, Flint!
Ahoy, yourself.
You swabbies got a working radio?
Sure do, but our satellite hookups are spotty.
I think we lost one.
We lost more than a satellite, bros.
Cobra captured our launch facility.
But the weird thing is,
they gave up following us when we hit the water.
Well, then at least we don't have to worry about...
Chief!
Break out the re-breathers
Off the boat, Fish Face!
Hey, don't touch those things.
They're like electric eels.
Shocking! Shocking!
Gung-Ho, you're a genius!
Get some metal between them
and they'll short-circuit each other!
Gung-Ho, get the chief!
I'll get Wetsuit!
SHIPWREC Yo, Flint!
We could use some of t hat electrical wire out here!
Hey, Polly! Want a cracker?
Cracker?
Cracker, cracker.
Cracker!
Come on, Polly. You can do it.
Ahh!
Bird overboard! Bird overboard!
Okay, Shipwreck, your turn!
Way to go, Polly.
Polly gone.
Ooh! What is taking so long, Mindbender?!
I need more venom to make more troopers!
We lost too many BATs in Antarctica.
I need more lab workers.
Venomous Maxim us, I order you
to assist Mindbender!
Understood?
I command my army.
I "assist" no one.
As of now, our fight is with G.I. JOE,
but remember, the Venom Troops answer only to me.
Don't you ever
After Cobra has dealt with G.I. JOE,
I will deal with you.
He's too powerful.
I warned you this would happen.
Quiet!
We'll use your monstrosity to destroy G.I. JOE,
and then Venomous Maximus will face my wrath.
Too powerful... too powerful.
I heard everything, General,
and I know this organization will benefit
from a change of command.
Yeah, it is time to change many things.
There's no base out here.
Link, I said it was a...
"secret base. "
That's everything we have, Link.
What's your professional opinion?
I don't know how it's possible,
but those enemy soldiers...
I believe they're humans enhanced with animal DNA.
In this case, from what's on the tape,
I'd say Arctic wolves.
Can you reverse the process?
Technically, yes,
but I doubt those things will stand in line
for a shot of the antidote.
Hey, Doc, you invent the cure,
I'll invent the delivery system.
There is no door.
Good move, Kamakura!
They've taken Hawk...
and everything else.
on. This is Duke, call any G.I. JOE stating
Any station, come back.
Duke! You're alive!
Calling all G.I. JOEs!
Oh, it's time to tune to the Cobra Channel.
Oh, hello.
Today, for your viewing pleasure,
we present the first and last episode
of a brand-new reality show I call
No Survivors!
Run!
And like all good shows,
it ends with a bang.
Over there!
That one!
Kamakura!
No use!
I'm stuck!
Leave me.
You still have a chance.
This team stays together.
Duke!
I was supposed to watch his back.
You didn't let him down.
I say again, this is Duke
to any G.I. JOE station. Come back.
Duke!
So what's going on down there?
You guys having a party or something?
We are now!
Then another chunk of concrete
knocked the pipe off Kamakura,
and we were able to get to the Night Adder
before the whole base caved in.
'Course, Kamakura isn't the only thing that needs
to be patched up.
I got a new gauntlet for you.
Good. Because this one I'm giving back to Hawk.
In person.
Now, what's the latest?
Flint and Shipwreck reported in from South America.
Cobra's overrun
our South American launch facility.
So that's their second base.
With our launcher, Cobra can deliver
their venom anywhere in the world...
transform whole cities
into mind-controlled armies overnight!
Even if I find an antidote,
there's no way to make enough
to save everyone in the world.
Which means it's up to us.
We have to stop Cobra once and for all...
before they use that launcher.
You are cleared for vector grid 000.
So, what did you bring me?
Your present's in the back seat,
wrapped up all nice and pretty,
compliments of Flint 'n' Shipwreck and the boys.
Brilliant genetic engineering,
but there's one critical flaw.
Looks like a simple amino acid substitution
will make it easy to separate the animal DNA
from the original human DNA.
Odd that somebody would make such a basic mistake.
Hey, ask me if I'm surprised.
Dr. Mindburger is a couple of circuits
short of a motherboard, if you know what I mean.
Pow!
Let's hope this does the trick
It worked!
Leave the rest to me.
Cobra Commander.
The launch computers have been reprogrammed
for our venom payloads.
We can launch within the hour.
You landed two hours ago.
What kept you?
We caught a spy...
a G.I. JOE- code named Tunnel Rat.
He's been hiding in the jungle
trying to find out what we want
with this launcher
Then let's give the little rodent a front-row seat
for our very first launch.
Listen up.
Flint's gonna bring us up to speed.
We've scouted the Citadel,
and this is where Cobra Commander
has set up his command post.
So, we figure that's where the big guys will be...
including Hawk.
This is the launcher.
Cobra BATs have already loaded it
with venomization payloads.
Snake Eyes, you and your team will target the launcher.
I know it'd be a lot easier
if we could just blow up the launcher,
but we can't.
That base is full of innocent civilians
that Cobra's venomized into troops,
and we can't risk hurting any of them.
So, our mission is first: Shut down the launcher.
Second: Get Link's antidote to those venomized civilians.
And third: Get Cobra Commander by the shorts
and give him a twist he won't forget.
Give him a twist!
Okay, team, lock and load!
Go... JOE!
Stand by for primary launch sequence
in 11 minutes on my mark.
Launch sequence initiated.
Somebody'd better tell me that isn't...
G.I. JOE!
First wave...
follow me!
A rain forest?
In Siberia?
They have an antidote.
And you call yourself a genius?
Storm Shadow, we must make sure
the payloads launch.
Destro! How much time?
Nine minutes.
Hope you don't mind.
We just let ourselves in.
We need Venomous Maximus!
Where is he?!
Let G.I. JOE and the old Cobra
destroy each other.
Then there will be nothing to stop me...
and to stop us.
When I rule Cobra,
you shall be rewarded.
Poor, poor Mr. Rat.
It hurts just to look.
Tighter!
Very funny, guys, but let's see
who's laughin' in the end.
One G.I. JOE?
Against both of us
Uh-oh! Uh-oh!
This time, nothing can save you!
Hey!
This BAT makes a darn good bat!
Get away from that
Make me!
Let's see how you handle
asynchronous phase inversion, you two-bit hacker!
Is that the best you can do?!
Double asynchronous phase inversion back at you,
Mindloser!
The antidote only worked on the hybrids
exposed to it at the highest concentration.
The rest we're going to have to cure one at a time.
You heard the man!
Make every shot... paint ball count!
Yo JOE!
Now, where was I...?
On the endangered species list...
where all organics belong.
Whatever that thing is,
the bigger they are,
the harder they fall
Heavy Duty!
Venomous Maximus!
For the glory of Cobra- we have to work together!
I do not need you!
I created you to serve me!
To serve Cobra!
You will be the servant now.
I shall command Cobra!
No! I-I control the Fangblade!
And now I control you.
Over Kill- help Cobra Commander!
That's close enough!
Close enough... You're right.
It is.
Close enough!
What are you doing?
What I should have done long ago- clean house!
Clean house!
Prepare the lab for maximum venomization
of all remaining source material.
Yes, yes, yes. What about him
I will be at the launch platform.
cleaning u p his mess.
All right!
Now I can scratch where it itches!
Incoming!
Whoa!
Iron filings?
How come they're stuck on me?
Ow! Hey, I'm some kind of super-magnet!
Ow!
Hey, guys!
Cuttin' edge woik, kid.
Mama Rat always said to recycle!
Wot's dat?
Nobody want to laugh at "poor Mr. Rat" no more?
Clear the launch ramp.
We're too late!
Five... four... three..
two... one... launch.
The missile.
It just stopped.
This is G.I. JOE Citadel Launch Control.
This launch is scrubbed.
Mindbelcher, haven't you ever heard
of an "off" switch?
You simple-minded techno-geek.
The battle's not over.
Venomous Maximus has turned against you.
The venomized armies won't be under Cobra's control.
At least under Cobra, humanity would survive,
but if those two creatures conquer the world...
we're all doomed.
Hi-Tech, you warn the team on the platform
that the payloads are still live
Heavy Duty,
watch Mindbender.
Scarlett, you're with me.
Worthless humans.
You know nothing.
Those are the last venom troopers. Get 'em!
All available personnel...
report at once to the launch platform.
The launcher is still active.
You'll be all right now.
I'll take you to the medical tent.
er. Okay, Bendmind
You don't want Venomous and Over Kill
to run the world...
and I want my general back,
so what do you say we figure out
how to shut down that launcher from here...
together?
When you put it that way, how can I refuse?
Hold it right there.
Nothing's getting launched today.
Guys... you gotta help me.
I'm a walking trash can.
How did it happen?
I got sucked into a wind generator. Ow!
It charged me like a magnet.
No big deal, Dusty.
Best way to demagnetize anything
is to reverse the polarity.
Ow!
Duke, Snake Eyes.
Get Hawk to the center of the first ring.
Hey! What about me?!
Ow!
Dusty, stay back!
It's your magnetic field.
We don't know what it will do
to the one in the launcher!
Ow!
Hurry it up, okay?
And now the world will see how
a true scientific genius can...
Yeah, yeah, whatever.
It's on.
Uh, guys!
We gotcha!
That junk from Dusty- it's blowing right through him.
What's wrong with my uniform?
What happened?
I'm so clean!
I hate being clean.
Flint! We need the antidote. All you've got.
Looks like we're just ticking him off.
That's all we have, Duke.
Is it enough?
Hawk.
You have to help us now.
Fight it.
Any way you can.
I know you're inside.
We need you, Hawk.
Duke.
That's it, Hawk. You can do it.
I do not need you to tell me that.
All my enemies lined up on the launch ramp?
So if I just press one button,
I can create my first venomized army
and rid myself of Duke and Venomous Maximus,
all at once.
I win!
Hawk! Hawk, are you all right?
You're back.
Thanks to my friends.
Uh-oh.
Not my beautiful new headquarters!
Ah! It's launching the missiles backwards!
What happened?!
We reversed the polarity.
It's just going
to keep launching those things, isn't it?
Talk to Brainbender.
He's your Employee of the Month.
No "off" switch. Loser.

That's the last planeload of civilians.
Going to be a lot of happy kids getting their parents
back today.
Mission accomplished.
Ooh...
looking sharp.
It felt good being back in action.
Wouldn't mind a chance to help out and do it again.
Welcome aboard, Dr. Talbot.
See? I told ya so.
When we get back to HQ,
I'll fit you for your own Gauntlet.
Speaking of Gauntlets...
You keep that one. You earned it, Duke.
Mmmm... Guess there'll be no living with him now, right, Snake Eyes?
Snake Eyes?
*** I'll stand right by you , I'm your glory unseen ***
Glory unseen.
Keep walking.
Justice is served.
I, uh, um...
Well, let's not be too hasty eh, JOEs?
