Episode Summary
EDIT
The Australian Spectrum Hovercraft Centre, Koala Base, the university-style academy where several trainees are sent to brush up their skills and sit their practical and mental exams to become Spectrum hovercraft pilots, is the most likely place for Captains Scarlet and Blue to investigate, where several explosive sabotages have been made upon Koala's state-of-the-art hovercrafts, hence why the Mysterons latest threat states that there is a traitor within the world security organisation, and that it threatens to tear it apart from within.
Already settling on a few probable suspects, including the cadet leader, their suspicions rise even further when their room is set ablaze when sleeping. But when attending a routine test-run the next day, with one of their selected suspects, the duo discovers that the traitor isn't quite what they expected...moreless

-
Mysteron Reconstructions: None.
-
Spectrum Losses: 4 hovercrafts. 2 Spectrum cadets are killed in the crash of Hovercraft 2.

-
Machin shouldn't have been suspicious of Captain Scarlet at all. Most of the accidents happened long before he even set foot on Koala Base.
-
As Destiny is ordered to launch, she acknowledges with Rhapsody's British accent rather than her usual French accent.
-
After the incident in the hovercraft, Johnson and Machin remark that they were lucky to come out of it alive. Very lucky in fact, given that they were still clearly sitting in it with their seatbelts on only seconds before it exploded.
-
Machin was said to have broken his ankle, but his wounds only indicated a deep gash on the thigh.
-
Captain Blue's flashback to the events at the Car-Vu (from "The Mysterons") shouldn't have contained the scene of Captain Black giving instructions to Captain Scarlet as he wasn't present to witness it and he didn't even know Black was still alive at that point in the series.
-
At the beginning of the episode, Major Stone calls the base "Base Koala", but the sign outside reads "Koala Base".
