KAITLIN receives a tip on a big story: a top secret weapons plant and testing site has been set up outside Cross World City. The lead proves to be a trap, set up by GRIMLORD. SKUGS hold Kaitlin as bait to lure RYAN and J.B. into an ambush. The boys are forced to do battle with METALBOT and COBROT, two of Grimlord's deadliest robot warriors. The boys ultimately overcome them and release Kaitlin just in the nick of time from a booby-trapped explosion at the weapons site. Kaitlin's story appears on the front page of the newspaper, forcing the closure of the plant.
