17. Red Hornet The Horrible Hostage Plan

Red Hornet

Red Hornet and his army are out to destroy Mother Nature. To do so they spread gas, which wipes out plants and leaves people choking. Professor Komyoji takes a bus to his hometown of Ikaho, where Hanpei is also driving Mitsuko and Masaru. The robots attack at the Grand Hotel, but Jiro is there to battle them. In the confusion, Yumiko, Masaru and Mitsuko get kidnapped. Jiro finds them, and Gil plays the flute. The roar of a boat engine blocks the sound, and Red Hornet is not long for the world!

Notes: There is a lot of sightseeing in this episode, and it is some gorgeous countryside. The little hornets look like toys, and they need to “gas “ up to full power. We see Red Hornet has a videophone. Masaru is infected and acts crazy, which gets a bit annoying. He gets cured at the end, though.
