Outback takes advantage of Bazooka's slowed reflexes as a side effect of the trance. Using his CQC skills, he quickly disarms Bazooka and knocks him in the back of the head with the pistol. The Vipers that were with Bazooka gang pile on Outback. Bazooka, being extremely thick headed, doesn't go unconcious, but instead is enraged. Not remembering much of what happened and seeing a Sh*t load of Vipers, he goes into a frenzy punching and kicking every viper until he reaches the bottom of the pile. He helps Outback up and they grab Flint on the way out. Once they rendezvous with Falcon, the Lt explains how he had no choice but to shoot flint because he thought he was Zartan in disguise, and he did not hit any vital organs. His first priority was to dismantle cobra comms and extract any intel that could be useful. After contacting Joe HQ Falcon had also requested a medivac for Flint, who he was coming back for when he ran into Outback and Bazooka carrying him out.
Epilouge. . . Zandar is posing as Flint, and although he's hurt, he remains in character to infiltrate the Pit. The real Flint is being evacuated by cobra and will be the subject of more advanced mind control research.
