- Synopsis:
- It's an all out fire fight as the Joes fight against Cobra for the secret of the Terror-Dromes, as Battleforce 2000 first knocks out the Dromes before supplying a last second assistance to the overwhelmed Joes. Duke, meanwhile, meets with Frusenland's prime minister Volff to sign a secret deal between the U.S. and Frusenland, thereby cancelling Cobra's deal, and revealing the Terror-Drome's true purpose. Fred VII is almost found out as a fake when a techno-viper discusses with him how they got the tech to create the frequencies that caused paranoia, and he didn't know it was from the late Eskimo Kwinn.
