	Roadblock then follows after Tomax and Xamot's car in his truck, rear-ending them at a stoplight. The twins pull guns on him, but Roadblock simply pulls the machine gun from out of his truck and opens fire on them. The twins take cover behind their now totaled car until they are rescued by the Crimson Guard. As they drive off, Roadblock warns them to never return. Marvin turns to return to his truck, but the destruction has caused it to set on fire, much to his dismay.

	Returning to the lot, he finds the community there cleaning up the mess. One of Marvin’s younger customers tells him that "[[Night Force\|his friends]]" helped them. Marvin questions where the police are, but [[Shooter]] informs him that they would prefer to keep things quiet. She then asks Marvin if they can talk, to which he asks how he can help her.

Marvin questions where the police are, but [[Shooter (G.I. Joe)\|Shooter]] informs him that they would prefer to keep things quiet. She then asks Marvin if they can talk, to which he asks how he can help her.

	Meanwhile, in [[Springfield (G.I. Joe)\|Springfield]], [[Astoria Carlton-Ritz\|Chameleon]] and [[Mercer]] reflect on recent events, including the fact that the [[Dreadnok]]s are now working with [[Cobra]]. [[Destro]] meets with [[Cobra Commander]] in his secret lab, feigning relief at his safe return in order to hide his betrayal. The Commander takes it in stride, viewing the ordeal as a learning experience, as they now know more about [[G.I. Joe (team)\|G.I. Joe]]'s operation; he then tells Destro that their focus needs to be on recovering the remaining deposits of [[Energon]] around [[Earth]]. Destro tells the Commander that he realizes how much Cobra needs him and asks that he finally reveal his origins to the Laid. The Commander says he will in due time, but that the Energon comes first. He then tells Destro that he believes he has found more than an ally in him, but a friend, which Destro reciprocates. However, as soon as Destro leaves, Cobra Commander activates a secret recording from the eyes of [[Major Bludd]], showing him that Destro was behind his attempted assassination.
