Arise, Serpentor, Arise Five Part Miniseries - 1986 Begins Second Season Part OneIt begins by introducing all the new Joes as the new command staff tours the base and notices that the Joes are goofing off playing baseball and video games, watching tv, ect. Cobra is thus able to surround and attack Joe Headquarters with their new Battle Android Troopers (BATs). Only with the help of Sgt. Slaughter are the Joes able to defeat the Bats. Hawk asks Sarge to stay and re-train the Joes and the Joes embark on a mini-remedial boot camp. Meanwhile, Cobra Commander is blamed for the Cobra defeat. Dr. Mindbender has a mysterious dream and sets out to create the new Cobra leader. As a result of their new training, the Joes intercept and destroy a Cobra Night Raven and retrieve a Cobra message pod. Inside is a message for Zartan. Sarge, Beach Head and Lowlight are sent to the Dreadnok's camp where they discover Zartan holding an "audition" for membership into the Dreadnoks. The Joes are able to get half of a letter from Cobra from Zartan, detailing the Dreadnok's mission (breaking into tombs of history's greatest leaders and conquers). Then new Dreadnok Thrasher comes back in his tank and "crushes" the Joes in the Dreadnok's shack.Part TwoSarge, Beach Head, & Low Light return to Joe HQ with the partial list of the tombs Cobra is planning to attack, including Napoleon in Paris, a General in Egypt, The Crypt of Vlad Tempe aka Dracula, Sun Zu, Ghangis Khan, Montezuma, Alexander the Great, Ivan the Terrible. The Joes set off to protect the tombs, even though they don't know what Cobra wants. Hawk heads to Paris to defend Napoleon's tomb, running into Paris' Mayor who's not happy with tanks driving down the streets of his city. Duke teams up with the Oktober Guard in Siberia to protect Ivan the Terrible's tomb. Flint is in the Yucatan, having to hike through the jungle to get to Montezuma's tomb. Dusty is in Egypt, and is the first to be attacked by Cobra. Zarana tricks the Joes into helping some local villagers, and leaving the tomb of the Egyptian General undefended. They destroy a dam to escape and Dusty and Joes have to be rescued. In Paris, Cobra troops arrive by Submarine, and the Crimson Twins are able to get to Napoleon's tomb, and then escape. Flint's unit is attacked by Zartan, his siblings, & the Dreadnoks. They aren't able to stop them from getting Montezuma's DNA and escaping. Duke and the Oktober Guard don't have any better luck with defending Ivan's tomb. The Joes in Transylvania are having fun with the whole Dracula thing. Mainframe and Beach Head hear noises coming from Vlad Tempie's tomb, and when they investigate, are attacked by Cobra, and forced to hide in Vlad Tempie's coffin when the castle collapses.Part ThreeDracula's castle collapses and Beach Head and Mainframe are forced to take shelter in the crypt. Duke and his group head to defend Ghangis Khan's tomb while Shipwreck and his group defend Alexander the Great's underwater tomb. At Sun Zu's barrel mound, Sarge is able to stop Cobra and retrieve one of the boxes. The Joes are able to analyze the box and discover that it is used for extracting DNA. They guess that Cobra is building an army of super cloned soldiers. Cobra uses the old 'pretend the jet is crashing trick' to distract the Joes and get Ghangis Khan's DNA, along with Sarge, who is pulled up to the Cobra jet in with the coffin.Part 4Dr. Mindbender insists on taking Sarge prisoner instead of dumping his out of the airplane. Back at Joe HQ, the Joes plan an attack on Cobra island. Cobra is busy 'making' Serpentor, Dr. Mindbender also uses DNA from Sergeant Slaughter, which infuriates Sarge. Cobra Commander allows Sarge to escape, and sabotages the process, creating a giant blob of a monster. The Joes arrive during Cobra's chase for the giant blob, and Sarge goes head to head with the monster, destroying it and is recaptured by Cobra. Dr. Mindbender tries again to create the new Cobra Emperor, extracting more DNA from Sarge, and stopping Cobra Commander from contaminating the DNA. CC then releases Sarge in order to stop Mindbender, but he is too late, Serpentor arises from the goo on the table.Part 5The Joes uses Lifeline to distract the Cobras and sneak into the Terror Drome to rescue Sarge. Serpentor makes quick work of Sarge, and quickly takes control of Cobra. Serpentor is on an ego trip, but lacks self-control, being provoked by Sarge to go another round. Serpentor releases Sarge, and the chase begins, straight into Cobra' control room where Sarge's rescue party is battling Cobra. Back at the Joes HQ, they have learned about Serpentor, but before they can stop him, Serpentor has rallied his troops into taking over Washington DC. Cobra Commander tries to convince Serpentor say they "...can't hold Washington, much less conquer the United States, I know I've tried." Serpentor isn't convinced, falling for General Hawk and the Joes posing for the President and other officials surrendering to Cobra. This allows the Joes to get close enough to mount an attack. Reinforcements arrive by Land, Sea, & Air, and Cobra retreats. Serpentor is saved by Cobra Commander, who makes a deal with Serpentor to let him be Serpentor's escape goat as long as they take him with them. Serpentor agrees and they Cobra's escape to launch the second season of GI Joe.
