Cobra Quake36th of 55 episodes in Sunbow season 1. Written by Ted Pedersen. First aired October 28, 1985.Previous episode: The Traitor, Part 2 Next episode: Excalibur |
On the way to a Tokyo economic summit, Flint and Gung-Ho's plane full of delegates is attacked by Cobra Rattlers. Once forced down, the plane is revealed to be a decoy full of Joe vehicles. Skystrikers arrive to drive off Cobra, while the real delegates land safely in Japan. Meanwhile, Quick Kick and Bazooka's work with trainees is interrupted by an earthquake caused by Cobra. Bazooka joins Lady Jaye to meet with seismologist Dr. Morita, but they are attacked by Storm Shadow and his ninjas. Quick Kick arrives, and he and Bazooka pursue Storm Shadow only to be attacked by Scrap-Iron, while Lady Jaye investigates Dr. Morita's house and is captured.
Quick Kick, Bazooka, and trainee Teiko track Lady Jaye's homing signal to a Cobra base, where they free her and Dr. Morita. Dr. Morita helps the Joes pinpoint bombs set to cause earthquakes across Japan. Joes are dispatched to the bombs' locations, and Bazooka walks the three teams through the disarming process. The Joes celebrate their victory with a traditional Japanese dinner of octopus.
