The Blues and Donut had their transmission end when Washington hung up.

Caboose: "Hello? Hello? Agent Washington! Are you there? Hello? Hello. Hello. Hello. Hello."

Donut: "Umm, I think he hung up."

Caboose: "No, I don't think so... I don't think he'd do anything like that—hello! Hello."

Donut: "Okay. Well, I think I'll just head back to my base. If you can think of anything to help me with that desert situation, just give me a ring."

Caboose: "Okay."

Donut: "You need any help with your Frankenstein-friend project?"

Caboose: "Oh, no, but uh, if you see any mechanical parts laying around that... look friendly, would you save them for us?"

Donut: "Well, sure! I can ask Sarge if he used his underground secret workshop. I heard the guys talking about it, it sounded cool."

Caboose: "Oh right, they mentioned that earlier when they came by to pick you up."

Donut: "He doesn't usually like letting the enemy use our equipment, but maybe I'll catch him in a good mood."

South: "Hehe, you could try killing Grif first. That would probably put him in a good mood."

Donut: "Yeah... that's a good idea and all, but we have all these rules against killing people from our own team."

Caboose: "Lame."

Donut: "Tell me about it."

Caboose: "No I don't think we have rules like that on Blue Team."

Donut: "Man. Our team sucks." (leaves via the man cannon)

Caboose: "Ohhh. So that's how that works. (heads downstairs) Secret underground workshop, huh? Well, I have to try something. I don't seem to be very good about doing this on my own."

The rest of the blue base residents join him downstairs.

South: "Hmm. Could be useful. And maybe we can use to prank the reds or something."

Alexis: "I'm in."

Ash: "No Problem buddy." (A random ignition occurs to the right.)

Caboose: "All right, now how did that even start!?"

Alexis: (Sigh) "I'll get the fire extinguisher."

Cuts to Red Team, discussing their plans right outside the Red Base.

Sarge: "Men, with Donut captured, I think we should abandon our previous plans of not attacking the Blues and institute a new plan, of attacking the Blues."

Simmons: "Good."

Sarge: "Winning the war is one thing, but having a man captured is quite another. I can't stand by knowing we've left a man behind! (turns to Grif) So I need a volunteer to run a suicide rescue mission. This won't be easy, and you're almost certain to die!"

Grif: "Why are you looking at me when you say that?"

Sarge: "Thanks for volunteering, Grif! (Donut is seen approaching behind him from the hill.) Now the plan is to run straight at Blue Base, grab Donut, and carry him home over your shoulder, even if he's not hurt. That way when the Blues track you down to kill ya, Donut will still have fresh legs to run home and avoid recapture."
