SPEED RACER X!!!
BIG TROUBLE - Episode 18 - X
Saturday on the test track, Speed and Trixie have just kissed. Both still in each other's arms looking at each other and decide they'll start going together as a couple.
Speed is so happy he invites Trixie to ride with him around the test track, she joyfully agrees. Sparky says that the added weight of a passenger may have an effect on Speed's lap time, but Speed insists. So Speed and Trixie hop in the Mach V and Sparky gives the signal to start.
Speed and Trixie cruise around the track in the Mach V. Sparky notes that Speed's lap time is not diminished, but even improves. Sparky comments that he doesn't know how Speed does it, but he seems to be driving even better with a passenger.
An unexpected guest arrives, via helicopter, its Crasher Kid whose come to see Trixie. He asks Spritle where his sister is, but Spritle only points to the Mach V.
Crasher is surprised to see that Speed is practicing with a passenger and suspects it must be a new strategy.
He comments on Spritle's new pet asking if it is his new little brother. Spritle begins to agree but then realizes that he was being insulted and tells him to watch his mouth. Crasher says, "Whatever."
Crasher Kid waits for the Mach V to stop and for Speed and Trixie to come back to the group again. As usual he attempts to make an advance on Trixie trying to get a kiss. But he is surprised when he is grabbed from behind and tossed to the ground.
Trixie is shocked because standing before her is her protector, Chim Chim who raises his fists in front of Crasher ready to defend Trixie again. Trixie says, "You'd better watch out now Crasher Kid, I've got a new bodyguard and he won't let anybody close to me unless I say so!" Trixie now appreciates the little ape now more than ever.
Crasher sits on the ground and shakes his head saying, "Ow! What happened? Whoa! Keep him away from me! Keep him away! Ok! Ok! I give up I give up! I'm gettin' outta here!"
With that, he gets back on the helicopter and flies away. Trixie says, "He'll think twice before he tries anything funny again", and Spritle says, "Don't worry Sis, Chim Chim will watch out for ya from now on." Chim Chim turns around raising the back of his right hand to his forehead saluting Trixie.
Speed says, "It looks as if you've got him trained already and you've only got him this morning!" Spritle says, "Yup, he's smarter than any ordinary pet alright!"
Meanwhile at the mansion of Racer X, Racer X is talking with Joe about his secret mission. Racer X speaks, "Joe, we nearly have all the evidence we need to complete our mission, we only need our objectives to slip-up before we can make our case stick, and with the evidence we've gathered so far it's already enough to send them up the river for a long, long time."
Joe says, "Soon the World Earth Grand Prix will begin and we'll soon run out of time ourselves."
Racer X says, "You let me worry about that, everything will fall in to place in time, my friend, in time."
Later, elsewhere in the city a meeting is taking place at Team Exelions corporate offices. In the underground boardroom the executives, Mr. Balboa and Sonya Broda have gathered for an emergency meeting.
"We must do something drastic before Speed Racer enters the World Earth Grand Prix."
"Mr. Balboa, we're very disappointed in you."
"It's not my fault, someone helped Speed Racer and had my men beat up and arrested, there was nothing I could do!"
"Your failure has cost us valuable time, we will need to come up with another plan as quickly as possible."
"Sonya, do you have any ideas?"
Sonya remains quiet for a moment then speaks; "Perhaps we've been going at it all wrong? Instead of destroying Speed or the Mach V we could..." She pauses for a moment then smiles and continues," im-pro-vise."
"Mr. Balboa, get on it right away!"
"Yes sir! Right away sir!"
"And Mr. Balboa, no slip-ups this time."
"No Sir!"
Mr. Balboa leaves the boardroom and Sonya continues, "We should also have a back up plan."
"Oh? Continue Sonya."
"I know who has been helping Speed Racer, its Racer X", she says.
"We should eliminate him immediately!"
She says, "Yes, but it won't be easy, he's very elusive and capable of avoiding capture, we'll need to follow him and lead him into a trap."
"We want you to take care of this personally."
"He will not escape me this time", she says.
Later that night Sonya and some hoods have gathered at a local fast food restaurant. Sonya scolds her henchmen, "Couldn't you guys wait until we get to a more respectable eating establishment, this is embarrassing!" "Sorry, Sonya but we haven't eaten dinner yet!" said one man. "Yeah, we gotta eat some time!" said another. "Oh, hurry up so we can get out of here, we need to find Racer X!" she says. And then out of nowhere she hears a familiar voice, "I'll just have a cheeseburger and a chocolate shake." She says, "It's Racer X, he's in the drive through! You idiots! Drop that food and get him!" "But we're still hungry!" they say. "I don't care! Get moving!" Racer X drives to the window facing Sonya. He stops the Shooting Star, smiles and waves to Sonya. "Oh! I'll fix you!"
Racer X drives off saying to Joe, "They've taken the bait, is everything ready?" "Ready, and waiting sir." says Joe.
Racer X cruises down the road closely followed by the two henchmen and Sonya trails behind them. "Get closer to him!" she says. "We're on it," says the henchman.
They leave the city and cross a small bridge, Sonya still trailing.
The henchman bumps the Shooting Star, thinking quickly Racer X makes his signature move. He spins his car around 180 degrees full speed and heads straight for Sonya.
"She's going to be very disappointed", says Racer X, smiling as he passes leaving her behind him. "Team two, now!" she says, the bridge blows up and the Shooting Star topples over the edge splashing into the water below.
She turns her car around and stops at the edge. She steps out of her car and looks down into the water saying, "Bon appetite, Racer X!" she laughs. She radios in to Team Exelion's corporate office, "Mission accomplished, heh heh, splash one X-Ray!"
At the surface, water surges up, bubbles appear and debris floats to the top. Suddenly an explosion throws water and more debris into the air! A single charred tire floats to the surface, and she says, "At last we have seen the end of Racer X!"
At Hibiki Motors, Mr. Balboa and 'Team three' prepare to break into the garage. "Ready your masks, go, tear it down!" he says. The hooded men approach the garage while Mr. Balboa remains hidden. The door comes crashing down, waking Speed who jumps out of bed and runs toward the garage. Two armed and hooded henchmen meet him, while a third is in the Mach V trying to hot-wire it. They warn him not to interfere or else his family would pay for it. Speed stops in his tracks, helpless to take action. The Mach V drives away and the gunmen disappear.
Speed stands at the open garage; glass and twisted metal are everywhere. He sees the tail lights disappear in the distance. He clenches his fists and teeth in anger.
