Thunderbirds: Road Rovers Rescue Brigade Ep 1

Summary
A series of underwater sea quakes along the ocean floor cause a research team to become trapped in their sea lab that perilously sits near the edge of an underwater cliff. It’s up to Balto, Jenna, and Perdita to rescue and bring the research team to the surface.

With the help of Lady Penelope, they discover that the devices causing the quakes have been created by their organisation's biggest enemy, The Hood.

Episode
(The episode opens with a hot air balloon flying out of control through stormy skies.)

Father in Balloon: Mayday, mayday. We're out of control and gaining altitude.

Boy in Balloon: Dad I'm scared.

Father: Stay low and hang on son.

Boy: Dad!

Father: I'm at 10 thousand feet and climbing. Can anyone hear me?" [He stops at the sound of engines] "What is that?

Boy: International Rescue!

(It's Thunderbird 7! She pulls up next to the balloon and Jenna appears at the top of her canopy.)

Jenna: Looks like you could use a little help.

Father: Look after him.

(The Father hands over his son to Jenna.)

Jenna: I've got him! Take my hand.

Father: I can't reach.

(The Father reaches out as far as he can, but it's not enough to reach Jenna. Suddenly, the balloon breaks free from the basket and he falls towards the ground.)

Boy: Dad!

Jenna: Thunderbird 10. I need you now.

Jenna: Gotcha.

(Jenna remotely actives Thunderbird 7's VTOL engines, stopping her just off the ground. She and the Father fall back into Thunderbird 7's cockpit.)

Boy: Dad!

Jenna: This is Thunderbird 10. Mission complete.

Delilah: Good job, Jenna. Thunderbird 8, what's your status, Pongo?
