20,000 Leaks under the Sea

Dr. Wily and his robots launch an attack on an underwater mining operation, but Mega Man was able to save it, just barely.

As a showing of gratitude, Eugene Peister, the administrator of the mine, rewards Dr. Light with a brand new lab. While Dr. Light and Roll are in awe of the new place, Mega Man has a feeling that this is all too good to be true, and it is.

The "new lab" is really a walking vehicle meant to deliver the heroes to their doom, deep under water. But, a savior comes in the form of... a squid?!

Robot Master appearances: Wave Man, Dive Man

Fun Facts

 * This was the season finale.

 * The name of this episode is an obvious take on the novel 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea.
 * During the first battle, the Rolling Cutter on Cut Man's head gets crushed by a large rock, a reference to his main weakness, the Super Arm.
