Escalator to Armageddon
The SAW viper, responsible for killing several Joes, is closing in on Duke, Lt. Falcon, and Cross Country. The three soldiers stand their ground armed only with their side-arms. The SAW viper orders the Hiss IIs and Maggot to hold their fire, as he wants them for himself. Meanwhile, Clutch, Rock N Roll, and Wildcard are parachuting towards the Earth, and Wildcard remembers to deploy the secondary chutes after the primary ones are ripped. However, Clutch is not happy and throttles him.
Tomax and Xamot stand at the border fence of the Emirate of Benzheen, an oil-rich country, and call Cobra Commander for further orders. Cobra Commander authorizes the attack, but when asked about the Joes, the brothers reveal what they have done, and Cobra Commander becomes furious. The SAW viper toys with the Joes, walking his bullets toward them slowly. However, he receives a message from the twins to stop immediately and let them go. The twins are in the middle of a battle, and they easily take Benzheen, although the Emir escapes on his yacht.
The Mobile Battle Bunker meets up with Duke, and they take off after the SAW viper, leaving the bodies of the fallen behind. Meanwhile, Cobra Commander is briefed by the twins and is none too pleased to hear about the Emir's escape and the seven Joes who were shot. He takes out the monitor, grumbling that he is going to take over the operation. Duke kicks Wildcard, Clutch, and Rock N Roll out of the gunner positions and driver's seats and uses the Mobile Battle Bunker to destroy tank after tank.
