	As Duke leaves, him and Clutch talk about his next move: it's too dangerous to go looking to his family for aid (especially not his [[Falcon (G.I. Joe)\|younger brother]]), and [[Hawk (G.I. Joe)\|Hawk]] likely won't believe him more than he did back then. Just then, [[Rock 'n Roll]] suddenly appears and begins firing on the two, leading to Clutch's beloved hot rod getting destroyed. Duke and Clutch rush into the shop and burst out of it in a [[VAMP\|van]] Clutch had been working on, prompting Rock 'n Roll to send a pair of armed drones after the two. Though the drones fail to hit their target, it turns out that they weren't trying to — it's a trap! [[Stalker (G.I. Joe)\|Stalker]] uses his sniper rifle to shoot out their vehicle's front tires, causing it to crash into a tree, knocking Clutch out. Stalker orders Duke to stand down, but Duke retorts that he doesn't take orders any more and charges at Stalker, who dodges his punch and knocks him to the ground with a kick to the face before knocking him unconscious.

	Stalker and Rock 'n Roll bring Duke and Clutch (under arrest for aiding and abetting) to "the Pit", a formerly-decommissioned underground facility now being used to house high-risk prisoners before they're transported. Stalker advises Duke to trust the system if he wants to get out of his situation, but Duke loudly fires back that the system didn't trust him. His words catch the attention of a [[Baroness\|mysterious woman]] being held in a nearby cell, who notes that the two of them both want freedom, and suggests that they could come to an arrangement...

	* Clutch mentions that Duke has a "baby bro," making this the second time this series has referenced [[Falcon (G.I. Joe)\|Falcon]]. Though Duke says the situation's too dangerous for him to get involved, the fact that Falcon's come up in both issues thus far indicates he's probably showing up sooner rather than later.		* Clutch mentions that Duke has a "baby bro," making this the second time this series has referenced [[Falcon (G.I.

	* Like the VAMP, the lady at the end of the issue isn't named in the main story, but her signature black hair and glasses give her away as the scheming [[Baroness]], who's usually depicted as a high-ranking officer in [[Cobra]]. She's also been regularly romantically paired with Destro, indicating that if this version of her isn't already working for him, she likely will be soon enough.		* Like the VAMP, the lady at the end of the issue isn't named in the main story, but her signature black hair and glasses give her away as the scheming [[Baroness]], who's usually depicted as a high-ranking officer in [[Cobra]].
