"Death in the Desert"
The battle in Trucial Abysmia continues, and Tomax and Xamot misinterpret Cobra Commander's order to release the captured Joes, and a SAW-Viper kills four of them: Doc, Heavy Metal, Thunder and Crankcase. The remaining Joes escape, but three more: Breaker, Crazylegs, and Quick Kick, are killed when the vehicle they are escaping on is destroyed. The Joes send help by dropping a vehicle from low orbit.
