In the Penultimate Episode of 'COBRA: Rebellion' London Is Under Siege
It's time to call a COBRA as the penultimate episode of COBRA: Rebellion kicks off. As was shown at the end of last week, Dan Goddard, the father of the late protestor Polly, has joined with two ex-military terrorists to steal the Damocles XR, a sophisticated long-range mortar weapon. The COBRA is to deal with the discovery of where he's aiming it: It's revenge against Prime Minister Robert Sutherland for Polly's demise, payable as a ransom of £30 million. Audrey Hemmings says the break-in at the Weapons Expo was reported but minimized the incident before Condor Aerotech’s director Gerald Kendrick (Geoffrey McGivern) gives a terrifying briefing describing the extent of the weapon.
Robert Sutherland: "I saw the country through Ruin Britannia. I stood on the edge of Armageddon. I saw through the solar flare. I stared at the sun and I’m still here."
No one knows where Goddard and company are; the original vehicle they stole was found burned out. But that's about as far as this plotline goes, as toward the end of the meeting, Anna receives the photo taken by a security guard of her and Robert making out in the tunnels in the episode's last moments. Worse, she’s not the only one, as Archie practically rounds on her. The photo has, in fact, gone public: Even Robert's daughter Ellie has seen it.
