And they presumably captured her, because it cuts away to a new scene.
Apparently, Hun-Dred's base is a literal underwater castle, which is pretty awesome (though admittedly also pretty silly).
Maybe the script called for an underwater fortress, and got interpreted literally.
Anyway, Maxx Steele and Mark Fury and company have come to invade it.
They split up, with the robots going to blow the place up (!) while Mark Fury checks the place's prison cells in hopes of finding his father, Dr. Fury.
Instead, he finds Deena, of course. (The Doctor was in another castle.)
And then some guy with a hilarious mustache threatens him from behind.
Fortunately for him...
...Maxx Steele thought he'd keep an eye on him, just in case.
Then he leaves to finish wrecking the castle.
We see something of a gunfight between the good robots and... these guys.
That's right, unreleased toys (Plundor, Fangar, and Arsenal) got an appearance in this, albeit as nameless, all but faceless goons who get slaughtered by the hero bots. (You can find more information on them on the page I linked to earlier, or here if you're too lazy to scroll back up.)
The castle has been sabotaged to explode (or something) and everybody escapes, with Mark Fury carrying off the mustache guy to interrogate later.
I mean that pretty literally, by the way-Blazer the flamethrower bot has a few words with the guy.
He grills the guy for information (not quite literally).
These robots... are starting to strike me as being rather bad role models.
Anyway, since I haven't remarked on it yet, I might as well address it here: There's a rather odd bit concerning the robots. All robots have exactly the same basic design, no matter their origin. Hun-Dred may be hundreds or thousands of years old, and is virtually identical to Coptor, who was built by Dr. Fury, and to Maxx Steele, who was built by Mark Fury (though admittedly, probably from Dr. Fury's notes or something). There is absolutely no reason for this. I suppose I might be able to accept the idea that this basic design was so ingrained into these people that they couldn't even imagine building them differently, or maybe this simply being the most efficient robot design (snicker), but it's still rather odd.
Anyway, nitpicking aside, after they get their information, mustache man jumps out the window, and I'm pretty sure they were in a plane or a skyscraper or something, so... Yeah, he probably splatted.
Next time, we get to join Hun-Dred and the goons on his search for Nazgar's brain.
-Signing off.
