Gi and Linka are livid when Wheeler belittles their favorite rock singer, but it looks as though Wheeler may be right after they come upon a land-ravaging, strip-mining operation run by Hoggish Greedly, but bankrolled by none other than their idol - Sky Runner! Stunned, they confront the star, who turns out to be innocent, but they still have to stop Greedly before the small mining town is destroyed.moreless

      • When the dam breaks, Kwame, Ma-ti, and Linka run for the Geo-Cruiser to meet Wheeler and Gi to summon Captain Planet. This doesn't make much sense, since in many episodes, the Planeteers would still summon Cap when they were split up, if Ma-ti communicated to them with his ring.
