Long Summary:
Destro finds his badly injured Baroness, and he throws away his
mask.
Cobra Commander gets on the last cargo plane to leave the Hawaiian Island of Kauai that he has had control of for a period of time.
The Joe team, Airtight, Scarlett, Stalker, Flint, Roadblock, and Shipwreck, are in the sewers of the
missile base on Kauai Island, as the conventional bombs are destroying everything on
the surface. On their heals is Duke, who is leading
a group of Cobra soldiers, to take out the Joe team. Some of this bomb damage
has collapsed part of the sewer and they are forced to retrace there steps
back towards Duke’s team.
Duke uses a “rubber duckie”, really a
floating time bomb, to try a blow up the team. They spot the bomb and let it
go past just as it explodes.
As Cobra Commander’s cargo plane is being advanced on by the Air
Force planes. Cobra Commander, who has changed into diving gear, jumps out
the back of the plane, and leaves a grenade that causes the plane to blow up.
Back in the sewers, Duke and his Cobra team come upon the bodies of
the Joe team. Of course, this was a trap in which the Joe team catches all of
the Cobra troopers. Duke makes a run for it, but Scarlett
catches him and they both go under the water fighting.
On the surface of the base, Beach Head and Snake-Eyes have made there
way onto the base, and are doing some serious damage. The US Army arrives
with its invasion force to secure the island. Destro
turns himself in to the Army, with the barely alive Baroness, asking them to
save her.
Cobra Commander meets up with a Cobra submarine with Storm Shadow
aboard, and they head off to a base in South America.
Duke is first to reach the surface. And Scarlett
has won the fight by stabbing Duke in the back with her knife. Duke, the
traitor, is dead. The Joe team then moves out to the street, where the
regular US Army guys arrest them. Hawk shows up to release the team and
salute them for a job well done.
