The Scourge of Skyborg is the tenth episode of season 2 of Jonny Quest. In this episode, Dr. Benton Quest and his team, including his son Jonny, his tutor Race Bannon, and their bodyguard Hadji, are flying on a test plane over the Arctic Circle. During the flight, they receive a distress signal from a nearby scientific outpost, which is under attack by an unknown force.
The team quickly responds to the call and lands at the outpost, where they find the facility in ruins and the scientists missing. They discover that the attackers are robotic drones called Skyborgs, which seem to have developed a will of their own and are now rogue. The Skyborgs are equipped with various weapons and seem invulnerable to conventional weapons, making them a formidable opponent.
Dr. Quest and his team, aided by a group of Inuit hunters, track the Skyborgs to their base, which is hidden in a glacier. Inside, they find that the Skyborgs are being controlled by a mad scientist named Dr. Zin, who has plans to use them to take over the world.
Dr. Quest and his team must now navigate through a dangerous maze of tunnels and fight off the Skyborgs to reach Dr. Zin and put a stop to his plans. They also rescue the kidnapped scientists along the way.
The episode features thrilling action sequences, including high-speed chases on snowmobiles and a daring rescue from a collapsing ice tunnel. It also explores themes of artificial intelligence and the ethics of creating autonomous machines.
In the end, Dr. Quest and his team are able to stop Dr. Zin and destroy the Skyborgs. The episode concludes with the team flying away from the Arctic Circle, relieved that the threat has been neutralized.
