Synopsis[]
While swarmed by the Heavies, Fang tells his gang he is thinking of a plan, but Bean asks him to think quickly. Heavy King asks them to return the Warp Topaz, but Fang's plan is to run which leads to a chase around the Heavy Wing. Heavy King demands the other Hard Boiled Heavies to get the gang and worry about the gem later. Bean suggests calling for the Marvelous Queen, but Fang's attempt fails, as he needs to be in closer range. Heavy Rider and Jimmy manage to catch up to them, but Bark is able to stop her, with Bean cheering him on until he is surrounded by the others. Bark then faces Heavy King on his own while the other robots continue to chase them. Bean is then lead to a trap by Heavy Magician turning into Fang. This leads Bean to a dead end with her and Heavy Gunner. Fang takes on Heavy Shinobi, who freezes Fang after he tries to dodge his attacks.
Outside, Sonic and Tails show up on the Tornado and Sonic notices there is no one outside, getting frustrated that there is no action. Tails suggests to look inside, which Sonic agrees to. Meanwhile, after Fang breaks free from the ice, the Marvelous Queen arrives and hits Heavy Shinobi, defeating him. Bean is still surrounded, but is able to escape by creating a bigger bomb which blows the robots up. Once reunited with Fang, Bean reminds him about Bark, so the two go to rescue him, with Fang assuming he's fine. Bark, on the edge of defeat, is saved by Fang and Bean and the gang warp out. Sonic and Tails then reach the reactor. Sonic is still thirsty for action. Tails explains that the ship is clearly a Eggman warship and plans to take it down. Tails tells Sonic that he can overload the reactor but will only have a few minutes to escape.
Sonic, excited to finally get in on some action, agrees to this and thanks Tails for giving him something to do. Heavy King commands for his forces to find Fang's gang, but the ship starts to go down while Sonic and Tails hurry back to the Tornado. Heavy King contacts Eggman, telling him their test flight caught the attention of the duo. Eggman frustratedly commands them to return straight to base. Once back on land, Fang celebrates but Bean is furious with Fang since he and Bark risked their lives and didn’t get a Chaos Emerald. Bean and Bark then quit and leave Fang, Fang is unbothered by this, as he is happy he won’t have to share his money with them anymore. Then, Eggman contacts Fang and requires his services saying he has been investigating some strange islands. Fang agrees and leaves for his next gig.
