Long Live Rock and Roll, Part 27th of 20 episodes in DiC season 2. Written by Doug Booth. First aired October 3, 1991.Previous episode: Long Live Rock and Roll, Part 1 Next episode: The Sludge Factor, Part 1 |
The Joe Team moves out to attack Cobra's Sonic Headquarters, but numerous vehicles are destroyed by the sonic weapon. The mayor agrees to Cobra's ransom demands, and Hawk orders the Joes to back off. But Rock 'n Roll, Psyche-Out, Scarlett, and Snake Eyes press on in a subway train, using sonic packs to counteract the weapon, while Skymate falls into Cobra's base after being shot down. A new bass line added to Billy Blaster's music causes the subway to crash into Cobra's basement.
The Joes from the subway soon find themselves in Road Pig's private zoo, where they fall under attack by a snake and an alligator, but they survive with the help of Skymate. Meanwhile, Billy Blaster has gone missing (actually tied up by Metal-Head), so Metal-Head is given permission to use the sonic weapon to destroy New York himself, despite the delivery of the ransom money. The Joes find Billy almost immediately, and as Cobra directs the weapon at the Joes' base, Rock 'n Roll and Billy hook their guitars into Cobra's sound system and destroy Cobra's equipment. As Cobra flees, the Joes evacuate the captured engineers and the whole tower comes down.
