Mortal Kombat: Defenders of the Realm (1996)
S01E03 Acid Tongue
Episode Overview
A new threat emerges as a group of strange reptilian creatures confronts the Earth warriors. During the ensuing chaos, one reptile’s acid splashes onto Jax’s cybernetic hands, causing him to lose an essential microchip and rendering his hands useless. This incident shakes Jax’s confidence. Determined to assist her friend, Sonya goes back to the battlefield to search for the microchip, but she is captured by a reptile. With other battles looming, the Earth Warriors decide to divide their efforts: most of the team heads off to fight Sheeva’s warriors while Jax embarks on a quest to rescue Sonya. Driven by his urge to help, Jax ultimately overcomes the reptile without relying on his cyber hands. Meanwhile, the rest of the team secures victory in their own fight.
