Synopsis for "Plots and Tracts"
The Battle Force 2000 fighting against a group of Cobra vehicles in a training simulation. Duke assigns them the task of investigating a Dreadnoks sighting in New Jersey after Knockdown is taken down during the simulation. Mutt, Doc, and Rumbler observe the incident from a hillside, and Mutt decides to join the Battle Force on their mission despite Duke's concerns that he is only after revenge.
In a deserted seaside town called Broca Beach, Buzzer is having fun at a shooting gallery. Zarana interrupts him, and they prepare to meet some investors and handle the arrival of their former inhabitants of Springfield. Meanwhile, the Battle Force is pulled over by state troopers at the Jersey turnpike. Mutt realizes that the Dreadnoks are the crazy bikers who tore up the toll booth with a chainsaw and puts his foot down on Blocker's accelerator, causing the Eliminator to smash through the barricade, leading to a high-speed pursuit.
Zarana beats up Buzzer while they drive along, warning them that losing the state troopers could cost them the rendezvous. Zanzibar reports that G.I. Joe is also following them. Zarana boards his Air Skiff and tells him to take her to Broca Beach, leaving the rest of the Dreadnoks to stall their pursuers. The Dreadnoks ambush the Battle Force, and Mutt kicks Buzzer in the face.
Zarana and the Air Skiff arrive at Broca Beach, where the former inhabitants of Springfield are waiting. Zarana hopes the Dreadnoks do not lead the Joes to Broca Beach but realizes she is dealing with Dreadnoks and needs to get out of sight immediately. The Dreadnoks break off and head towards Broca Beach, followed by the Battle Force, who are then surrounded by state troopers. Knockdown shoots down the Air Skiff, which crashes on the trooper's car, leading to their arrest.
The Dreadnoks, led by Zarana, are planning to scam the former inhabitants of Springfield by buying Broca Beach. The Battle Force and the Dreadnoks engage in a high-speed chase, leading to their arrest by state troopers. The story is filled with action, twists, and turns, making it an engaging read.
