Home Episode Summaries Season 1 The Pyramid of Darkness: Chaos in the Sea of Lost Souls
"Gotta problem, pilgrim?"
- Quick Kick (to Storm Shadow before before defeating several Crimson Guards)
The sea lions climb onto Alpine and Bazooka's floating chunk of ice
and crawl toward the Joes. Alpine suggests that they "rock the boat" so
they jam their weapons into the ice, take turns shifting their weight and
cause the ice to sway and knock the creatures back into the sea. However,
the sea lions climb back onto the ice and renew their attack. Nunchakus
strike the sea lions and they again fall into the sea.
The man who helps the Joes yells for them to row to shore and leaps
down to confront several Crimson Guards and Storm Shadow. "Gotta problem,
pilgrim?" he asks. Punching, swatting and kicking the Crimson Guards aside
as they attack him, the mysterious stranger begins to batter Storm Shadow
around like a ragdoll.
The final blows of the battle occur when the two opponents rush toward
each other, leap into the air and kick one another in mid-air. When they
land they turn to face one another Storm Shadow falls to the ground. Turning
toward the Joes and tossing a line to reel them onto shore, the helpful
stranger introduces himself as Quick Kick, a Hollywood stuntman who was
abandoned by his director while filming a Frozen Fudgies commercial.
Quick Kick helps support Bazooka and the trio become fast friends before
diving into a snowbank as a Cobra HISS tank drives by them. Major Bludd
activates the third cube and Quick Kick, Alpine and Bazooka hitch a ride
on Major Bludd's HISS by hanging on underneath the tank. Bazooka asks if
Quick Kick has Fudgies. As Quick Kick hands out the treats, he sings the
candy's jingle:
"Frozen Fudgies, really sweet
lots of chocolate, what a treat
full of taffy, raisins and nuts
that melts in your mouth
and turns to lead in your guts."
Alpine thinks the food tastes disgusting, but Bazooka loves the candy.
On the aircraft carrier, Roadblock reads Tomax his two rights - Roadblock's
two fists. However, Tomax calmly tells Admiral Ledger, Flint and Scarlett
that he will talk and that the answer lies in his Cobra insignia, which
glows brightly and blinds the Joes temporarily. Tomax is spotted climbing
a ladder and Flint and Roadblock pursue him. Pulling out a knife, Tomax
cuts two electrical wires which fly down toward the Joes, but Lady Jaye
grabs the wires and Flint and Roadblock continue their pursuit. Tomax attempts
to slide along a line but Roadblock plucks the line and the vibration causes
Tomax to fall to the ground.
Destro, the Baroness, Cobra Commander and Xamot view a hologram of the
pyramid of darkness and discuss the progress of the project until Xamot
falls to the ground and mimics his brother's fall. Cobra Commander asks
what's wrong with him and Destro explains that Xamot shares a psychic bond
with Tomax and is feeling his brother's experiences. "How revolting," says
Cobra Commander. Flint catches Tomax, handcuffs him and leads him to jail.
Xamot explains that he is able to feel where his brother is being held
and points the Sea of Lost Souls, a location near the last cube's home.
Xamot demands from Cobra Commander that he be allowed to lead an expedition
to free his brother. At first, Cobra Commander refuses his request, but
after Xamot reminds him that Extensive Enterprises, a company owned and
operated by Tomax and Xamot, has funded the pyramid of darkness project,
Cobra Commander allows him to free his brother. When the Crimson Guard
Commander leaves, Destro and the Baroness realize why Cobra Commander allowed
Tomax to leave: fewer partners with whom to share the world.
Satin tells the guard at the Cobra base that he had better buy insurance
if he and his troops make Satin and her musicians late for a gig at Cobra
Temple. The guard orders Shipwreck and Snake Eyes to exit the van. And
the Joes, Timber and Polly come out of the van in costumes and begin to
dance while Satin sings. Knocking the guards out, Satin yells "Joe yo."
"You mean 'Yo Joe'," says Shipwreck. "Don't get technical," Satin tells
him. "Just move!" Transforming her van into an armored van, Satin drives
past the guards firing at her, rips past a wire gate and then smashes through
a brick wall.
