Half way to Gilmore's plane, Flint discovers the overturned Snowcat of Destro. After a brief fight, the blizzard gets worse causing Flint and Destro to work together to stay alive. They overturn the Snowcat and head off to find Gilmore's plane. Destro tricks Flint by taking off his mask and then knocks him out and leaves him behind.

Flint and Shipwreck then also abandon the ship. On the dock all Action Force team members gather to talk. Barbecue is unsure how he survived. He explains that he was about to set the timers when last thing he saw was Strom Shadow. Next thing he knew he was in the water and the boat was blowing up.
