The Joes raid Cobra's medical facility to search for "Patient X" (who was previously used as a test subject for the creation of the Anaconda Strain virus) and any other information that would help them prevent an outbreak. They soon discover that Patient X is actually an amnesiac Ripcord and help to regain his memory. Meanwhile, Cobra Commander is told by Doctor Mindbender that this is a good opportunity to track the Joes location and movements since they're interference is now out in the open.
