Last Hour to Doomsday6th of 30 episodes in Sunbow season 2. Written by Tom Dagenais. First aired September 25, 1986.Previous episode: Arise, Serpentor, Arise! Part 5 Next episode: Let's Play Soldier |
As the Baroness returns from planting a typhoon-causing Vortex Cone at the Panama Canal, she is attacked by the Joes. Flint and Lady Jaye steal her Moray and infiltrate a nearby Cobra base, with Lady Jaye disguised as the Baroness. They steal a disk of the cone's schematics, but their cover is blown soon after. Cobra broadcasts a threat to use the cone within 48 hours, and the Joes prepare to send a team to find and deactivate the device.
Flint and Lady Jaye steal a Rattler, shoot down an entire Cobra squadron and return to Joe Headquarters, but the disk turns out to be damaged. A decoy fleet lures Cobra out of hiding, allowing Deep Six to locate Cobra's undersea base, and Flint and Lady Jaye lead an underwater assault team, but they find the base defended by B.A.T.s. Flint and Lady Jaye are briefly captured, but they escape as the Joes storm Cobra's base and Wet-Suit deactivates the Vortex Cone.

Misc. Notes
- On the DVDs from Shout! Factory, this episode is included in the Season 2.0 set (Disc 1, Episode 6).
- The featured characters and vehicles for this story (esp. grey Firebats and Roadblock's old uniform) are peculiar for season 2, and the abundance of non-toy designs, prevailing off-model animation, and unusual editing style suggest production issues and was possibly animated by a different studio than usual. As suggested by the episode's production number, placing it between The Wrong Stuff and The Pit of Vipers, it was originally to be written for the first season but was delayed due to the writer's failing health. It was ultimately updated to include B.A.T.s and other new products.
