Enough for Destro's needs. Show them to their new place of employment.
JABAL [Michael Bell]
By my oath, snake warriors, you shall suffer a thousand curses for this barbarous act!
EXT. MIDDLE EAST - STORM
WILD BILL
Footloose, make sure the Mauler's secure! That varmint slips, it'll tear this crate apart!
FOOTLOOSE
No problem, man. She's like, totally stabilized, y'know?
WILD BILL
Then get forward and strap in! Flint's gonna want you in one piece when we start scoutin' for that Cobra weapons range.
WILD BILL
Two engines gone! Can't pull out!
COVER GIRL
We're too heavy! Cargo's gotta go!
COVER GIRL
The Mauler! Eject the Mauler!
WILD BILL
Still too heavy! Lose another four hundred pounds!
DUSTY
Put it on. We're the four hundred pounds.
COVER GIRL
No, we can dump fuel!
FOOTLOOSE
No way, man. Time's flyin' and we're jumpin'. Come on, dude, into the ozone!
DUSTY
I think Cover Girl likes me!
FOOTLOOSE
I think you're deeply deluded, man.
EXT. DESERT - DAY
FOOTLOOSE
Oh, wow. Freight train city.
FOOTLOOSE
Freak me out, man! Help!
DUSTY
What...what's the matter?
DUSTY
Yeah, cute little guy, isn't he?
FOOTLOOSE
Check it out?
EXT. DESERT - COBRA WEAPONS RANGE
FOOTLOOSE
Gnarly, man. Cobra!
DUSTY
This must be the weapons range Flint was lookin' for.
DESTRO
Most impressive. But how will it fair against moving targets? Enable robot Firebats.
COBRA OFFICER
Enabled.
DESTRO
Astounding. Your plasma cannon has performed beyond my expectations, Dr. Winters. Finally Cobra has a weapon G. I. Joe cannot stop.
NANCY WINTERS
You have what you wanted, Destro. Now I want my freedom.
DESTRO
In due time, my dear. Escort her to her quarters.
DR. WINTERS
No! You made a promise, and you're going to keep it!
DUSTY
Come on. Let's see where they take her.
EXT. ENCAMPMENT - NIGHT
FOOTLOOSE
Destro's slippin'. There's at least half an inch of fence unguarded.
DUSTY
We've gotta get in there somehow.
FOOTLOOSE
Relax, man. We'll, like, hitch a ride.
COBRA [Arthur Burghardt]
A G. I. Joe spy. This should earn me points with Destro.
DUSTY
Wrong, pal. Ten demerits.
FOOTLOOSE
Okay if I borrow this?
EXT. ENCAMPMENT - ENTRANCE
COMPUTER [Chris Latta]
Identify, please.
FOOTLOOSE
Do it.
COMPUTER
Identity confirmed. Proceed.
EXT. ENCAMPMENT - NIGHT
FOOTLOOSE
Adios, amigo!
FOOTLOOSE
There she is, the chick!
INT. ENCAMPMENT - DR. WINTERS' QUARTERS
DUSTY
Uh, Miss?
DR. WINTERS
Who are you?
DUSTY
Just think of me as your hero.
FOOTLOOSE
Super suave, man. Hey, uh, throw on somethin' casual, y'know? You're like, uh, gettin' rescued.
DR. WINTERS
Um, give me a minute.
INT. ENCAMPMENT - HALL
COBRA [Bill Ratner]
Lights out, lady!
INT. ENCAMPMENT - DR. WINTERS' QUARTERS
COBRA
I said lights out!
FOOTLOOSE
Oh, wow. Bells and whistles. Like, we're all impressed now, man.
DR. WINTER
Uh, I'd feel a lot better about this if I knew your names or something.
DUSTY
Gotta go, guys! Happy trails!
EXT. ENCAMPMENT - NIGHT
FOOTLOOSE
What took you so long, man?
FOOTLOOSE
No problem, just keep mellow, Miss, uh...
DR. WINTERS
Nancy Winters. Doctor Winters to you.
FOOTLOOSE
Right. And I'm Dr. Footloose, and that's Dusty up there. He's just an intern. We're with, like, uh, G. I. Joe.
DR. WINTERS
Look out!
FOOTLOOSE
Hang on, Dusty!
MAJ. BLUDD
The bleeders got Dr. Winters!
DESTRO
Activate automatic defenses! They must not escape!
DESTRO
This gets to be less fun every second!
EXT. DESERT - NIGHT
FOOTLOOSE
Didn't I tell you we'd be rescuin' you?
DR. WINTERS
Uh-huh. And soon as I get myself together, I'll thank you.
DEATH ZONE COMPUTER
Warning. Death Zone. Defenses armed. Death Zone. Death Zone.
DUSTY
Don't move. You've stepped on a mine. Wiggle your toes and we're history.
DR. WINTERS
Don't worry. But what do we do about them?
FOOTLOOSE
I'll tell you in a minute. I'm, like, meditating, man.
DUSTY
Looks like this is it. Nice knowin' the both of you.
FOOTLOOSE
Hey, let's not call it a night yet, good buddies. I'm seein' somethin' cosmic here. You see, everything is everything. To a land mine, you're like, just somethin' heavy, same as this.
FOOTLOOSE
So like, lift your foot.
DR. WINTERS
Great. But don't call me "man," man.
FOOTLOOSE
Follow the leader, single file.
DESTRO
Forward! They must not escape!
DUSTY
Duck!
DUSTY
Keep movin'!
DUSTY
Hit the dirt!
COBRA
Death Zone activated! Stay back! Stay back!
DESTRO
Cowards! How dare you stop! Resume the pursuit at once!
COBRA
But sir, it's suicide! Deactivate the defenses....
DESTRO
Out of the question! That would increase their chances of escape. Rattler Squadron, if pursuit does not resume in ten seconds, open fire on those traitorous dogs!
If that woman escapes, she'll reveal the secrets of the plasma cannon to G. I. Joe! She must not leave the desert alive!
EXT. DESERT - SUNRISE
DR. WINTERS
Surely we've lost 'em by now.
FOOTLOOSE
Only like temporarily. Destro's heavily into stoppin' you.
DR. WINTERS
You must be sorry you ever laid eyes on me.
DUSTY
Well, not all that sorry.
EXT. JOE ENCAMPMENT - AIRFIELD
WILD BILL
Hello in there! Are you all right?
FLINT
What happened? Where's Dusty and Footloose?
COVER GIRL
Out there, alive we hope.
FLINT
Joe Headquarters, this is Flint. I need a rescue squad ready for takeoff, on the double.
EXT. DESERT - SUNRISE
DR. WINTERS
Where are we going? How much further? I can't--I can't take much more of this.
DUSTY
If, uh, you're tired, I can carry you, darlin'.
DR. WINTERS
Cool it, buster!
FOOTLOOSE
Hey, let's keep it friendly. We're like a hundred miles from the Joe base, and it's gonna be a long walk.
COBRA [Michael Bell]
Rattler Squadron to base. Target in sight.
DUSTY
Take cover!
COBRA
Bailin' out!
FOOTLOOSE
I guess that showed 'em.
DUSTY
Uh-oh. Sandstorm comin'. A big one!
FOOTLOOSE
That's like minimal, man!
DUSTY
I'll draw their fire. The Joes need to know about that plasma cannon. Take Dr. Winters and run like the devil.
DUSTY
One trick left. Better make it count.
COBRA
There's one! Get him!
DUSTY
Wow! This feels good, just like home!
DESTRO
Have you located them yet?
COBRA
We spotted one of them, but the storm!
DESTRO
No more excuses! Resume the search at once!
DUSTY
Sorry, Destro. Your boy's on a couple hours furlough.
DESTRO
What?
DUSTY
Thanks for the wheels, guys.
EXT. DESERT - SANDSTORM
DR. WINTERS
I can't breathe. Won't this storm ever end?
FOOTLOOSE
All things...must pass. Just keep on...keepin' on.
DUSTY
Hey, Footloose, guess who survived!
FOOTLOOSE
Dusty! Oh, wow, man. We need you.
DUSTY
Don't worry, buddy. Keep transmittin'. I'll track your signal.
DUSTY
There. I got your position. I'm....
DUSTY
Come on, work! Cobra junk!
DUSTY (COMM.)
It's okay. I'll find you. I'm comin'.
DUSTY
There's nothin' to be afraid of.
EXT. VILLAGE - NIGHT
FOOTLOOSE
Like, what...what's your trip, man?
JABAL
I am Jabal, descendants of the prophets of old. And you have come to this temple to die, snake warrior!
FOOTLOOSE
Hey, hey, hey! You got the wrong dude!
JABAL
Now I...what?
JABAL
A thousand pardons. You are no Cobra slime. The cruelties of these snake men have made me a bit fanatical. I'm afraid I did not see, you wear the same sign as the chariot which fell from the sky.
FOOTLOOSE
Come again?
JABAL
This way. I will show you.
JABAL
Behold.
FOOTLOOSE
Far out! You found the Mauler!
JABAL
Too long have the Cobras raided the villages of my land and enslaved my people. We could not drive them out with swords.
FOOTLOOSE
No, but this baby'll keep 'em from violatin' your space, man.
EXT. VILLAGE - NIGHT
COBRA
We're wastin' our time lookin' for those Joes out here! Let's head back! Wait....there! The light in those ruins!
FOOTLOOSE
I radioed the Joes from the tank, man. They're on their way, and when they show....
JABAL
We shall fight the Cobras side by side, yes?
JABAL
Come, snake warriors! I fear you not!
JABAL
Thus perish the enemies of Jabal.
FOOTLOOSE
You invented that other cannon, Nancy. Think you can target this one?
DR. WINTER
I'll give it a shot.
DR. WINTERS
Locking...and...firing!
DR. WINTERS
You know, Footloose, we don't make a bad team.
FOOTLOOSE
Ooh. You really think so?
DR. WINTERS
And you, Jabal, are amazing!
JABAL
A mere trifle.
FOOTLOOSE
Uh, yeah, well this has been fun, but we'd better split!
EXT. DESERT - DAY
DUSTY
Footloose, Footloose, do you read me? Oh, rats! Outta gas!
DUSTY
Footloose! Come in, will you?
FOOTLOOSE
Dusty! Hey, we got the Mauler back. What are you up to?
DUSTY
Lookin' for you! How 'bout givin' me a lift?
FOOTLOOSE
No problem. You're like a hop, skip, and a jump from us.
INT. COBRA ENCAMPMENT
MAJ. BLUDD
Yes, we know.
FOOTLOOSE (COMM.)
Hang loose, man. We'll be there in a flash.
DESTRO
And so will we. Prepare the plasma cannon for battle.
EXT. DESERT - DAY
JABAL
It is not much farther. Be patient, my desert flower.
DR. WINTERS
Your desert what? You must be kidding.
JABAL
Not at all. You are very, very beautiful, Doctor.
DR. WINTERS
Hmm. Call me Nancy.
DUSTY
Footloose! It's about time you got here. Oh, no! Cobra!
DESTRO
Idiots! Forward!
DUSTY
One shot left. This better be good.
DESTRO
A noble gesture, Joe.
DESTRO
And now one for you.
DUSTY
That does it! No more runnin'! Come on, let's see what you're made of, metal face!
DESTRO
As you wish, Joe.
JABAL
Alakalim!
DUSTY
What?
DR. WINTERS
No, stop! Destro's plasma cannon will cut you to pieces!
DESTRO
Very true, my dear.
FOOTLOOSE
Watch my dust, metal mouth! Here comes high gear!
DESTRO
You should have listened to the doctor, Joe.
FOOTLOOSE
Oh, wow! What a bummer!
COBRA
Cobra!
JABAL
Alakalim!
JABAL
Stand and fight, slithering cowards!
FOOTLOOSE
Come on, baby, move or we're done for!
DUSTY
He hasn't got a chance!
DR. WINTERS
I tried to warn him, but...wait! Give me that radio.
DR. WINTERS
Footloose, shoot for the rear of Destro's tank! It's not armored!
FOOTLOOSE
It's no good. I can't maneuver. If I show myself, I'm like vaporized.
DUSTY
Footloose, keep your eyes open!
FOOTLOOSE
Okay, but this thing is barely functional.
DESTRO
It's time we finished this.
DUSTY
Gotta jam those wheels!
DR. WINTERS
Shoot, Footloose! Now!
FOOTLOOSE
Come on, baby, fire!
DESTRO
You will live to regret this day, fools!
FOOTLOOSE
Oh, wow! We're really quakin' in our sneakers, man!
EXT. DESERT - DAY
FLINT
Wild Bill, do you see anything.
WILD BILL
Negative! W-wait. Make that affirmative. Only I don't think you're gonna believe it.
FLINT
What on earth? What is this, a rescue mission or a parade?
EXT. VILLAGE - NIGHT
DUSTY
I think Nancy likes me.
FOOTLOOSE
And I think you're still deeply deluded. She winked at me.
DUSTY
You? She....
FLINT
Knock it off, you clowns. The king's about to give you a medal for liberating his country from Cobra. I still don't know how you did it.
FORERUNNER
All praise to Ahmed Razouli Jabal, rightful monarch of this land!
DUSTY AND FOOTLOOSE
Jabal?
JABAL
My friends, my people and I are grateful to you. Please accept these tokens of our appreciation. We shall remember your bravery always.
JABAL
And now, my desert flower, come see my palace.
DR. WINTERS
Why, uh, I'd be delighted.
DUSTY
Some gratitude. I liberate his country, and he steals my girl!
