Home Episode Summaries Season 1 Hearts and Cannons - Notes
Credits: story by Alfred A. Pegal and written by Alfred A. Pegal and Larry Houston
Production Number: 600-45
Original Airdate: November 14, 1985
A Joe transport plane is caught in a storm, forcing the pilot to ditch his cargo, a valuable Mauler tank, over the desert. Dusty and Footloose volunteer to stay with the tank until it can be retrieved. They inadvertently parachute onto a Cobra proving ground and discover the evil organization’s latest innovation: a metal alloy that’s impervious to any conventional weapon! With tanks and planes constructed of this alloy, Cobra could attack the Joe team - or anyone else - without fear. With a battalion of Cobras hot on their heels, can Dusty and Footloose survive the track across the hostile desert to warn the Joes? [Notes: in the episode, an impervious alloy is not mentioned; instead, the weapon that Cobra has developed is a tank with a plasma cannon; also, Dusty and Footloose jump out of the plane not to babysit the Mauler but because there is too much wait for the plane to return back at the Joes’ base.]
