"Downtown Rio Lindo, Capital of Sierra Gordo..."

Storyline

Hawk's team tries to get the American Ambassador out of Sierra Gordo as the whole country falls apart. Meanwhile, Destro aids the anti-Villavaca rebels by attacking the Terror-Dromes in place. Zarana, Thrasher, and Monkeywrench escape from one of the Dromes and head to the airport where Wild Bill, Crazylegs, and Maverick are awaiting Hawk's team from the embassy, and force them to take off without them with some refugees on board, but the plane is hit on takeoff and losing power. Hawk's team escapes with aid from the anti-Villavaca rebels, as they were radio'ed by Destro to help them escape.
