Sonic's Nightmare by Frank Santropadre. A SatAM Synopsis by Mark Briggs.
The show opens with a view of a Savannah-like scene of the plain between the Great Forest and Robotropolis. We hear the voice-over 'where were you when the brains were handed out?' in Sally's voice. We also see Sally nearly being robotisized as Sonic gets caught in mega much trying to save her.
We find out it's only Sonic's nightmare. Sally is really receiving a transmission from Nicole about chemicals being shipped to Nimbus Island. Sonic, Sally, Bunnie, and Antoine search a shed for extra Swatbot parts to dress up in to infiltrate a convoy.
Sally, Bunnie, and Antoine get caught on the convoy. Next, Sally wonders where Robotnik is when tied up outside the Nimbus factory in a laser cage. Sonic shows up at the chemical plant to be seen by Robotnik from a monitor.
Sonic notices Sally and the others in a laser cage before suddenly pelted with fireballs. Sonic runs through glass tubes before finally demolished by Robotnik's onslaught.
Robotnik actually thought he won to instead have disappointed when his stealth blimp his smothered in oil from a geyser from the ground. Sonic drilled underground to treadmill over a bolt to restart an oil rig all the while his nightmare haunts him with the voice over.
With the stealth blimp badly damaged Robotnik retreats insisting the last move is his as the island begins to sink.
Sonic runs over to the cage of friends. Sally insists he doesn't have time because the lasers would repel him he tried to free them. Nevertheless, Sonic gets out a power ring to clasp the lasers with Sally holding onto the other side of the power ring. It has enough energy to absorb the lasers allowing the FF's to escape the near-sunken island.
The show fades out with Sonic's nightmares as a warning about his behavior.
: Note: Pretty good episode for season one. Has an epic feel to it.
