Speed Racer (1967)
S01E37 Crash in the Jungle (2)
Episode Overview
Speed finds himself cornered at the edge of a cliff, where gorillas hurl boulders at him, and one sends him tumbling over the edge. Meanwhile, General Smasher watches the chaos unfold on his monitors, relishing the thought of finally being rid of "that pesky young man." Smasher, reminiscent of a 1940s villain, seeks to gain Professor Carnivore's allegiance by introducing him to Professor Loon, a former associate. Loon showcases a massive gorilla known for breaking free from its chains. Just then, Loon is called to the command post as the Mach Five nears the island. As the Mach Five approaches, it gets pulled into an underwater door. Trixie and Spritle navigate a long tunnel, only to find tanks waiting for them. The tanks pursue the Mach Five, but Trixie's impressive driving skills ultimately lead to a crash, resulting in their capture for Professor Loon's experiments.
