Quotes 

• Zartan : We don't know who you are, where you came from, or even what side you're on. Why should we risk our necks on your behalf?

  Pythona : Does *this* answer your question?

  [produces a huge ruby from under her robe] 

  Zartan : A gem of that size answers *all* my questions.

• Serpentor : None may challenge Serpentor! This I command!

  Pythona : [reveals herself]  That won't be necessary.

  Serpentor : I have seen... I have seen you before in a dream... a vision.

  Pythona : In a memory, great Serpentor. I am part of your destiny. When you were created, my face was etched into your soul. I am Pythona, and now it is time to fulfill your destiny. Behold the Broadcast Energy Transmitter.

• Cobra Commander : No! No! Not the spores! I'm a citizen of Cobra-La. NOT THE SPORES!

  [Nemesis Enforcer approaches Cobra Commander with a steaming pod. Nemesis Enforcer forces Cobra Commander's head down onto the pod as it bursts and launches the spores around his face. The Royal Guards then let go of Cobra Commander's arms and let him fall on all fours. He grabs his throat and hyperventilates] 

  Cobra Commander : No! No!

  [Cobra Commander rips his shirt open revealing his flesh as it mutates into green and yellow scales] 

  Golobulus : Nemesis Enforcer, throw this worthless sewage into the Abyss of oblivion.

  Serpentor : No, put him in with the Joe prisoners, so they see can the fate which awaits them.

  Pythona : I like that. It's poetic in it's simplicity.

  Golobulus : Eh, a trifle melodramatic, but instructive... Nemesis Enforcer, take him away...

• Golobulus : Behold the culmination of centuries! The ultimate fruit of hypergenetic manipulation, a weapon which no enemy can withstand. In several hours, these marvelous fungisoids will mature and launch hundreds of giant pods into orbit. The pods will bear spores, and those spores will degenerate all organisms they touch, mutating them into mindless incompetent lifeforms.

  Pythona : [superimpose Pythona's face over the viewscreen]  When the pods ripen, they will burst...

  [the B.E.T. lights up the mutegen pods and they start exploding. The spores fall quickly forming into a mushroom cloud] 

  Pythona : and shower the earth with enough spores to reduce the entire human race to the level of mindless beasts.

  [We then see a visual of a man getting hit in the back of his head with the mutegen spores. As the mutegen spores touch down on him and turn him into a hideous snake beast, he appears in view and looks at the camera after being hit by the spores. His clothes are tattered by the affects of the mutegen spores as he covers his face and roars and develops snake scales that run up one side of his body, across his face and neck, and down the other side of his body and the whites of his eyes turn yellow and develop cylindrical pupils. We then see steam after the spores touch down blocking out the moonlight] 

  Golobulus : Only those beneath the protection of Cobra-La's icedome will be spared. But the pods will not ripen in the freezing outer space without energy. And that is why I must have...

  Serpentor : The Broadcast Energy Transmitter. Of course.

  Cobra Commander : Fool! You haven't got the B.E.T.! You don't even know where it is! Your plan is laughable!

  Golobulus : But your punishment will not be.

  Cobra Commander : Punishment? What about my trial?

  Golobulus : It's over!... and the verdict is guilty... guilty of the one unforgiveable crime... Failure!
