WE GOT WATER, WATER EVERYWHERE.

AND NO SIGN OF COBRA ANYWHERE.

GENERAL, WHEN YOU STEAL MY LINES, THAT AIN'T A GOOD SIGN.

SORRY, ROADBLOCK.

LEATHERNECK, YOU BRING A SEEING-EYE DOG

TO HELP YOU AIM THAT THING?

LOOK WHO'S TALKING, WET SUIT.

WHY, YOU COULDN'T HIT HAYSTACK CALHOUN

ACROSS THE RUMP WITH A SHOVEL -- A SNOW SHOVEL!

OKAY. CHILL THE FRICTION DOWN THERE.

NOBODY WANTS TO WATCH YOU GO TWO FALLS OUT OF THREE.

ALL RIGHT, MEN.

WE'RE OUT HERE TO CHECK A SATELLITE REPORT

ON POSSIBLE COBRA ACTIVITY.

HEADS UP, GENERAL.

IF COBRA IS OUT HERE, THEY'LL TRY TO LULL OUR SUSPICIONS.

THIS IS GENERAL HAWK, THE COMMANDER OF G.I. JOE.

WE'RE SEARCHING THIS AREA FOR COBRA.

HAVE ANY OF YOU SEEN ANYTHING SUSPICIOUS?

I SHOULD SAY SO. COBRA!

LET HIM HAVE IT.

GIVE IT TO HIM!

FIRE!

RETURN FIRE!

GET THEM! FINISH THEM!

SLIP STREAM, THIS IS HAWK.

WE NEED SOME SUPPRESSING FIRE

ALONG THE MAIN DECK OF THAT OIL RIG.

SOUNDS LIKE YOU NEED AN EXTRA-HEAVY LOAD,

AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT YOU'RE GONNA GET.

YO-O-O, JOE!

[ INDISTINCT SHOUTING ]

STAND AND FIGHT, YOU COWARDS,

OR YOU'RE NO RELATIVES OF MINE!

[ GUNSHOT ]

ON SECOND THOUGHT...

WAIT FOR ME!

HAWK! ZARTAN'S GETTING AWAY!

WHAT WERE THOSE WACKOS DOING OUT HERE

WITH HALF A COBRA BATTALION, ANYWAY?

SOMETHING TELLS ME THE ANSWER'S OVER THERE.

THIS IS WHY COBRA INVADED THE ATLANTIC.

THEY'RE AFTER SALVAGE.

[ BEEP ]

SALVAGE?

WHAT COULD YOU SALVAGE OUT HERE IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE?

A PRIZE A QUARTER-MILE LONG AND 20 STORIES HIGH --

THE G.I. JOE AIRCRAFT CARRIER USS FLAGG.

AFTER THAT DISASTER WITH THE COBRA HELICARRIER,

WE ALL THOUGHT THE FLAGG HAD BEEN SUNK IN DEEP WATER --

LOST FOREVER, BEYOND SALVAGE.

BUT COBRA MADE AN IMPORTANT DISCOVERY.

THE FLAGG IS ON A SHALLOW SHELF, OVERLOOKING A DEEP-SEA TRENCH.

SHE IS DEFINITELY SALVAGEABLE.

BUT SHE'S JUST RUSTY RUBBLE. WHY GO TO ALL THIS TROUBLE?

BECAUSE OF THE ANTIMATTER POD THE COBRA HELICARRIER CONTAINS.

THAT POD IS INVALUABLE.

IT COULD POWER THE EASTERN SEABOARD FOR A MONTH.

OR DESTROY IT.

THAT KIND OF POWER COULD GIVE COBRA THE EDGE.

WHICH IS WHY WE MUST SALVAGE THE ANTIMATTER POD FIRST.

YOU GOT IT, ADMIRAL.

WE'LL SEND OUR GUYS DOWN IN THE S.H.A.R.C.

TO CHECK OUT THE FLAGG.

THEN WE'LL RAISE BOTH CARRIERS AND THE ANTIMATTER POD

AT THE SAME TIME.

[ CHUCKLES ]

AND THE BIG JOKE IS,

WE'LL USE COBRA'S SALVAGE EQUIPMENT TO DO IT.

SOME JOKE, ZARTAN.

WHY AREN'T YOU LAUGHING?

THIS IS AN UNFORTUNATE SITUATION, COMMANDER.

UNFORTUNATE?

YOU HAVE A GIFT FOR UNDERSTATEMENTS, ZARTAN!

NOT ONLY DID YOU FAIL TO SALVAGE THE ANTIMATTER POD,

BUT YOU GAVE G.I. JOE THE MEANS TO RETRIEVE IT!

THERE IS NO CAUSE FOR WORRY, COMMANDER.

WE'LL STOP THEM,

AND WE'LL REGAIN THE ANTIMATTER POD IN THE BARGAIN.

AND EXACTLY HOW WILL YOU PERFORM THIS MIRACLE?

THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY.

WE'LL FOLLOW THEM DOWN AND TAKE IT FROM THEM.

HOW'S IT GOING DOWN THERE, ROADBLOCK?

FAST AND CLEAN THROUGH THE WATERY SCENE.

WE'LL CHECK THAT WRECK FOR TROUBLE,

THEN YOU CAN RAISE HER ON THE DOUBLE.

HEY, ROADBLOCK.

I'M GETTING SOMETHING WEIRD ON THE SONAR PHONES.

AH, IT'S JUST ECHOES FROM YOUR EMPTY HEAD, WET SUIT.

CAN THE BIRD SEED, LEATHERNECK.

THIS IS REALLY WEIRD. LISTEN.

[ UP-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYS ]

WHERE'S THAT TRASH COMING FROM?

YOU WON'T BELIEVE THIS, BUT IT'S COMING FROM THE FLAGG.

THE FLAGG?

YEAH.

SOMEBODY'S PLAYING "COLD SLITHER" ON DAVY JONES' STEREO.

LEAD THE WAY, JOES.

WE'RE RIGHT BEHIND YOU.

[ WHISTLES ]

HOLY LLOYD BRIDGES.

Leatherneck: WATCH YOUR DRIVING, WET SUIT.

ROADBLOCK, WET SUIT, HOW'S IT GOING DOWN THERE?

ZARTAN, YOU IDIOT!

REPORT TO ME AT ONCE!

[ SIGHS ]

GUYS, I'M NOT COMPLAINING,

BUT WHAT WE'RE SEEING AND WHAT WE'RE BREATHING

JUST AIN'T HUMANLY POSSIBLE.

IT DOESN'T MATTER.

YOU WON'T BE BREATHING MUCH LONGER ANYWAY.

HEY, THIS IS NO TIME FOR FIGHTING.

THIS IS A TIME FOR TALKING.

YEAH. LISTEN TO THE MAN. WE'RE STUCK 1,000 FATHOMS DOWN.

THE SQUID'S RIGHT.

IF WE DON'T WORK TOGETHER, WE'LL NEVER SEE THE SUN AGAIN.

STOP WASTING WHAT'S LEFT OF YOUR BREATH, G.I. JOE.

♪ HEAVY METAL MACHINE

♪ THROUGH THE EYES...

WHAT'S THAT?

ARE YOU GUYS HAVING THE SAME NIGHTMARE I AM?

YOU'RE NOT DREAMING.

BUT YOU'RE SURE AS SUNDAY MORNING GONNA WISH YOU WERE.

AND WHO IN THE ROBINSON CRUSOE ARE YOU?

THE NAME'S B.A. LACARRE TO YOU, BIG GUY.

YOU AND YOUR PALS ARE TRESPASSING

ON THE SACRED DECK PLATES OF LACARRE CITY.

Hawk: IT'S NO USE, ADMIRAL.

I CAN'T RAISE THEM.

THEY MUST BE TRAPPED INSIDE THE FLAGG.

[ RADIO STATIC ]

THE SUB'S AIR WILL RUN OUT IN 12 HOURS, HAWK.

IF WE DON'T BRING THEM TO THE SURFACE BY THEN...

WE WILL, ADMIRAL.

I DON'T CARE WHAT COBRA THROWS AT US.

WE'RE GOING TO RAISE THE FLAGG AND SAVE THOSE MEN.

I JUST WISH I KNEW WHAT THE BLAZES WAS HAPPENING DOWN THERE.

[ UP-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYING ]

STOP SHOVING, YOU RUSTY BUCKET OF BOLTS.

WHERE DID THAT BLOODY MANIAC COME FROM, ANYWAY?

UH, THERE MUST HAVE BEEN AN AIR BUBBLE IN THIS WRECK

WHEN SHE WENT DOWN.

SO, HE RODE HER ALL THE WAY TO THE BOTTOM?

YEAH. BUT WHERE DID THESE ROBOTS COME FROM?

OUR FRIEND LACARRE

OBVIOUSLY REPAIRED THEM TO DO HIS DIRTY WORK.

WOW.

WILL YOU TAKE A GANDER AT THIS?

LOOK. HE'S USING THE ANTIMATTER POD

TO GROW KELP AND SEAWEED FOR FOOD.

AND TO GENERATE AIR, WATER, AND ELECTRICITY.

SO, THAT'S HOW LACARRE'S KEPT HIMSELF IN THIS SHIP ALIVE.

YEAH. PRETTY SHARP, FOR A FRUITCAKE.

QUIET!

THE COURT OF LACARRE CITY IS NOW IN SESSION.

COURT?

I AM SHERIFF B.A. LACARRE --

FORMER MESS-HALL COOK, COBRA AIR FORCE, HELICARRIER WING,

AND THE SOLE SURVIVOR OF COBRA.

DID YOU HEAR THAT?

HE THINKS HE'S THE LAST SURVIVING MEMBER OF COBRA.

WISH HE WAS.

LACARRE, I AM ZARTAN. I AM EMPLOYED BY COBRA.

I AM ON YOUR SIDE.

YOU MEAN THAT COBRA STILL EXISTS?

WHY, YES, OF COURSE.

AND YOU LEFT ME DOWN HERE?

NICE TRY, ZARTAN.

ALL HUMANS PRESENT, ON YOUR KNEES!

NO WAY!

JUDGE B.A. LACARRE NOW PRESIDING.

ALL HUMANS, ON YOUR FEET!

MR. DISTRICT ATTORNEY, WHAT ARE THE DEFENDANTS ACCUSED OF?

[ Deep voice ] YOUR HONOR,

THE DEFENDANTS HAVE WILLFULLY TRESPASSED

ON THE SACRED DECK PLATES OF LACARRE CITY.

[ Normal voice ] OH, A SERIOUS CHARGE.

HOW DO THE DEFENDANTS PLEAD?

[ INDISTINCT SHOUTING ]

QUIET IN THE COURTROOM!

I HEREBY DECLARE ALL DEFENDANTS GUILTY

AND SENTENCE YOU TO LIFE AT HARD LABOR IN THE KELP BEDS!

I DON'T CARE IF YOU'VE LOST CONTACT WITH ZARTAN

AND HIS RIDICULOUS SIBLINGS.

CAN YOU RECOVER THE ANTIMATTER POD WITHOUT THEM?

I'M AFRAID NOT, EMPEROR.

THEY HAVE OUR ONLY AVAILABLE SUBMARINE IN THIS AREA.

THEN G.I. JOE WILL REGAIN THE ANTIMATTER.

STOP THEM! DESTROY THEM IMMEDIATELY!

IF I CAN'T HAVE THAT ANTIMATTER, NO ONE WILL!

THIS I COMMAND!

HE'S ALWAYS IN SUCH A HURRY.

♪ NOBODY KNOWS THE TROUBLE I'VE SEEN ♪

♪ NO--

STOP THAT SINGING!

B.A. LACARRE SPEAKS!

HEY, LACARRE, WHAT'S THE "B.A." STAND FOR, ANYWAY?

BON APPéTIT.

THEY CALL ME THAT JUST BECAUSE A FEW COBRA STRATO-VIPERS

GOT PTOMAINE POISONING.

BUT THESE BATS DON'T MIND MY COOKING --

NOT HERE IN LACARRE CITY, MY VERY OWN COBRAVILLE!

NICE PLACE, HUH?

COULD USE SOME NEW CURTAINS, THOUGH.

ZARTAN, THAT CLOWN IS ONE OF YOUR GUYS.

CAN'T YOU BRING HIM BACK TO REALITY?

NO. IT'S OBVIOUS HE'S DERANGED BEYOND REASONING WITH.

YEAH, BUT HE'S STILL SMART ENOUGH TO KEEP ALIVE

BY HOOKING THE ANTIMATTER POD UP TO THE GENERATORS.

WE JUST WEREN'T SMART ENOUGH TO STAY OUT OF HIS WAY.

GIVE ME THAT WATER BOTTLE, YOU SELFISH OAF!

LOOK, YOU ALREADY DRANK HALF OF IT, YOU GREEDY LITTLE PIG!

HEY, THAT'S MY KELP NET!

IT'S NOT YOUR NET, YOU BIG BOZO!

I'VE BEEN USING IT ALL DAY!

IT'S MY NET! LET GO NOW!

QUIET, YOU MALCONTENTS!

NOW, WHAT WE HAVE HERE IS A FAILURE TO COMMUNICATE.

I WILL NOT TOLERATE THIS KIND OF BEHAVIOR.

LOOKS LIKE I'M GONNA HAVE TO MAKE ONE OF YOU

AN OBJECT LESSON. TAKE THE GIRL

AND PUT HER UP AGAINST THAT WALL!

LET GO OF ME, YOU METAL MORONS!

LET ME GO!

[ INDISTINCT SHOUTING ]

[ GRUNTS ]

ZARTAN, THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY TO SAVE HER.

WE'VE GOT TO WORK TOGETHER.

TOGETHER?

A RATHER BIZARRE IDEA, BUT WORTH CONSIDERING.

DON'T CONSIDER IT FOR TOO LONG, MY FRIEND.

YOUR SISTER'S RUNNING OUT OF TIME.

OUR PLAN IS TO LOWER THOSE CABLES DOWN TO THE FLAGG,

INFLATE THE CUSHIONS,

AND BRING THE ENTIRE WRECK UP TO THE SURFACE.

NOW, LET'S JUST HOPE ROADBLOCK AND THE OTHERS

ARE STILL ALIVE WHEN WE GET HER UP.

SO, THEY'RE TRYING TO RAISE THE FLAGG.

WELL, WHEN THEY START LOWERING THE FLOAT CUSHIONS,

THEY WILL BE EXTREMELY VULNERABLE.

AND THAT IS WHEN WE WILL ATTACK!

THE EXECUTION WILL NOW COMMENCE.

FIRING SQUAD, ATTENTION!

Z-ZARTAN!

IF YOU'RE GONNA DO SOMETHING, IT BETTER BE QUICK!

RAISE ARMS!

WE MUST ACT!

AIM!

GRAB THE KELP NET!

Lacarre: FIRE!

GET LACARRE!

STOP! STOP!

SECURE THE PRISONERS!

YOU ARE TRYING MY PATIENCE, LACARRE.

AND YOU ARE GIVING ME NOTHING BUT TROUBLE, BIG GUY.

SO SUE ME.

OH, I'LL DO BETTER THAN THAT.

PUT HIM AGAINST THE WALL.

LET'S MAKE IT A DOUBLE EXECUTION!

[ GRUNTS ]

SORRY, ZARANA.

THIS AIN'T WORKING OUT THE WAY I EXPECTED.

ARE THE SUBS READY

TO TAKE THE FLOAT CUSHIONS DOWN TO THE WRECK, HAWK?

JUST ABOUT, ADMIRAL. WE'VE GOT TO --

[ LASER FIRE ]

COBRA!

ALL RIGHT! PLAY THE DEATH MARCH!

[ UP-TEMPO MUSIC PLAYS ]

RAISE ARMS!

♪ WE'RE COLD SLITHER

♪ YOU'LL BE JOINING US SOON

♪ A BAND OF VIPERS

FIRE!

[ RUMBLING ]

DUCK!

WHAT'S HAPPENING?

[ EXPLOSIONS ]

RETREAT! RETREAT!

LET THEM GO, BOYS!

LET'S GET BACK TO OUR SALVAGE OPERATION!

WE CAN'T RAISE THE FLAGG NOW, GENERAL.

WHY NOT?

LOOK AT THIS.

THE FLAGG SHIFTED TOWARD THAT DEEP-SEA TRENCH.

A FEW MORE FEET, AND SHE'S GONE FOREVER.

YOUR MEN DON'T HAVE A CHANCE.

WE GONNA MAKE IT OUT OF HERE, ZARTAN?

THINGS DO LOOK A BIT GRIM.

Leatherneck: HEY, GUYS,

I THINK I JUST FOUND THE EMERGENCY SWITCH.

WELL, TURN IT ON.

[ SIGHS ]

WELL, AT LEAST MOST OF THE ANDROIDS ARE OUT OF COMMISSION.

HEY! HEY, SOMEBODY HELP ME, HERE!

BE RIGHT THERE.

NEVER THOUGHT A JOE WOULD HELP ME ANYWHERE

EXCEPT INTO A JAIL CELL.

WHERE'S THAT NUTSO IN THE FLIGHT SUIT?

A MORE IMPORTANT QUESTION IS

HOW ARE WE GOING TO GET OUT OF HERE WITHOUT DROWNING?

WE DON'T.

LACARRE, YOU ALL RIGHT?

YES, I'M OKAY.

I JUST CHECKED THE MAIN BULKHEADS IN THE HANGAR DECK.

THAT BUMP ON THE HEAD MUST HAVE STRAIGHTENED HIM OUT.

[ SIGHS ]

DON'T WORRY ABOUT ME. WORRY ABOUT US.

THE SHIP IS FILLING WITH WATER.

I GUESS WE BETTER SAY OUR PRAYERS.

[ RUMBLING ]

[ INDISTINCT SHOUTING ]

SORRY, GUYS.

LOOKS LIKE WE'RE ALL FINISHED.

YOUR CRACKED SKULL, WE'RE ALL FINISHED.

NOW, LISTEN TO ME.

WE'RE ALL GONNA STOP FIGHTING AND START WORKING TOGETHER,

OR I'LL KICK YOU IN YOUR STUPID HEADS!

NOW, GET OUT OF THAT MUD AND GET TO WORK!

WORK? AT WHAT?

HEY, B.A.?

THE NAME'S LACARRE, BALDY!

WHATEVER.

ARE THE ROTORS ON THE COBRA HELICARRIER STILL OPERATIONAL?

GEE, I DON'T KNOW. WHY?

THEY COULD PULL THIS WHOLE WRECK TO THE SURFACE IN HALF A SHAKE.

GREAT IDEA, BIG GUY, BUT...

[ RUMBLING ]

...WHAT WILL WE USE FOR POWER?

THE ANTIMATTER POD.

WE HOOK IT UP TO THOSE ROTORS.

THEY COULD FLY US TO THE MOON.

FORGET THE MOON. I JUST WANT TO SEE SOME SUN.

Roadblock: LET'S STOP JAWING AND START WORKING.

WE'RE RUNNING OUT OF TIME!

THE FLAGG COULD FALL INTO THE TRENCH AT ANY MOMENT.

I'M AFRAID YOUR FRIENDS ARE DOOMED.

THERE'S NO WAY WE CAN RAISE THE FLAGG IN TIME.

[ GRUNTING ]

UH, HEY!

BIG GUY, I CAN'T DO IT!

I CAN'T CONNECT THE CABLE WITHOUT SOME HELP!

I HOPE YOUR IDEA WORKS, JOE.

WE WON'T HAVE LONG TO WAIT TO FIND OUT ABOUT OUR FATE.

[ ENGINE WHIRS ]

AAH!

WE DID IT.

THE FLAGG IS SAFE.

NEVER MIND ABOUT THE FLAGG. HOW ABOUT MY MEN?

[ PANTING ]

OH, I NEVER THOUGHT I'D SEE THE SUN AGAIN.

THANKS, BIG GUY.

DON'T THANK ME.

WE ALL DID IT TOGETHER, LACARRE.

CALL ME BON APPéTIT.

ALL MY FRIENDS DO.

I CAN'T BELIEVE WE MADE IT.

I CAN'T BELIEVE WE DID IT BY WORKING WITH ZARTAN'S BUNCH.

SPEAKING OF WHICH...

RIGHT HERE, FOOL,

AND TIME TO DIVVY UP THE SPOILS OF OUR JOINT EFFORT.

WE GET THE ANTIMATTER POD,

AND YOU BLOKES GET THE WRONG END OF A CROSSBOW.

LACARRE, ARE YOU COMING WITH US?

HECK, NO.

COBRA ABANDONED ME -- LEFT ME TO DROWN.

LACARRE, YOU'RE NUTS!

I'VE NEVER BEEN SANER.

OHH!

[ LAUGHTER ]

WHAT'S THE MATTER, LACARRE?

GOT A TUMMY ACHE?

OHHHH!

OH, WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH THEM?

I KNOW.

OHH! WE CAME UP TOO FAST.

ADMIRAL, LOOK.

I THINK THEY'VE GOT THE BENDS.

WE'D BETTER GET THEM INTO A DECOMPRESSION CHAMBER

RIGHT AWAY.

[ BANG! ]

COBRA!

DON'T THOSE GUYS EVER TAKE A DAY OFF?

ZANDAR, GET THE POD!

HURRY!

OHH!

[ GRUNTING ]

OHH...

[ GROANING ]

BENDS. THE BENDS.

TAKE THEM TO A DECOMPRESSION CHAMBER, AND HURRY.

HOW MANY TIMES MUST I RETREAT IN ONE DAY?

THANKS, LACARRE, FOR SAVING THE ANTIMATTER.

GUESS I DON'T BELONG TO COBRA ANYMORE.

THE FLAGG'S ON HER WAY TO A DRY DOCK IN NORFOLK,

AND THE ANTIMATTER POD'S HEADED FOR WASHINGTON.

YOU DID A TERRIFIC JOB, ROADBLOCK.

DON'T THANK ME. THANK BON APPéTIT HERE.

YOU GOT ROOM IN G.I. JOE

FOR A HALF-CRAZY, FULLY REFORMED, EX-COBRA MESS COOK?

WE'LL MAKE ROOM.

OH, YOU'RE CHEATING!

CHEATING?

I'M NOT THE ONE DEALING FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE DECK.

CROOK!

IT'S YOUR DECK, AND YOU'VE BEEN MARKING THE CARDS IN IT!

THAT'S WHAT!

WHO ARE YOU CALLING A CROOK?!

IT WAS YOU WHO WANTED TO PLAY!

HOW MUCH LONGER WE GOT TO BE IN HERE, GENERAL?

SORRY, ROADBLOCK. 16 HOURS.

MAYBE WE SHOULD HAVE STAYED WHERE WE WERE.

YEAH.

THINGS WERE A LOT MORE PEACEFUL AT THE BOTTOM OF THE OCEAN.

[ BOTH LAUGH ]
