Meanwhile, back at N-Tek, Berto tricks Max with his new holoprojector and shows it to him. Then, Forge Ferrus announces that he has to go up to the N-Tek Deadlass Platform, and that Max and Steel will stay behind and guard N-Tek's prisoner, Jason Naught. Max and Steel then steal Berto's holoprojecto and trick Naught into escaping. Naught leads them straight to Dread underwater base. The trio fight, and Max and Steel escape, but are crushed and explode, thanks to a missile shot by Naught. Dread, angry that his hope to destroy Makino and save the planet has been crushed assaults Naught. Meanwhile, Max and Steel sneak into Dredd's base, and it is revealed that they used the holoprojector to trick Dredd and Naught. They proceed to steal the Turbo Star and confront Dredd, who has discovered his ruse. Dredd's base becomes a giant floating platform on top of the water, with tons of missile launchers and a gigantic missile called the "Doombringer" which Dredd aims straight at Copper Canyon. Unfortunately, though N-Tek arrives, Dread's platform proves to much for them, and their R.O.C.Cs and Jump Jets are easily overpowered. Max and Steel are then captured in a tractor beam, but Steel hacks Dread's system, and frees them, and in the process sends the Doombringer missile right back to the villain. After his base is destroyed, he is then captured by N-Tek and the Turbo Star is secured.
