Synopsis for "A Tale of Two Saviors"
Godzilla arrives in San Francisco and begins tearing apart the Golden Gate Bridge. Police officers arrive on the scene, but are powerless to stop him. In Los Angeles, the Champions catch a news broadcast of the catastrophe and board the Champscraft, ready to help. When they arrive, Angel is the first one to soar out across San Francisco Bay, but Godzilla, unaware of his presence, swats him away with a mighty stroke of his tail. Iceman creates an ice-bridge to evacuate pedestrians off the Golden Gate. Godzilla marches onto dry land, where Hercules manages to get under his foot. With a mighty heave, he actually succeeds in toppling Godzilla over. Iceman encases Godzilla's head in a solid block of ice, but the monster bites through it. Dum Dum Dugan and other members of the Godzilla Squad fly over the scene in their flight packs and drop electro-nets onto Godzilla, but these too prove ineffective. Godzilla tears away a section of the bridge and heaves it at the Helicarrier, downing it. The Golden Gate Bridge has been destroyed! With nothing else to do, Godzilla turns and marches out to sea.
