When it seems like the pilot does indeed return, Sweet is first very happy his brother was back, but then realizes it wasn't him and finds the imposter trying to break into his personal safe. It turns out to be Zoltar, looking for the compound. In the meantime, Mark discovers Spectra is using a giant mummy to bring down the planes, and the rest of G-Force joins him, using Sweet's compound to destroy the mummy. With the compound secure, Spectra will never be able to use their weapon again.
