V.E.N.O.M. steals an artifact, a so-called Crystal Skull, that allows x-ray vision. By using the skull during combat with M.A.S.K., Mayhem sees through the masks and discovers Matt Trakker's true identity. V.E.N.O.M. kidnaps Scott Trakker and demands as a ransom all M.A.S.K. secrets and the Trakker family fortune in return for Scott's release. An art collector tells Matt that when the skull is destroyed, the knowledge obtained with it is also gone. M.A.S.K. destroys the skull and their secret is safe once again.

Quotes[]
"Thirty eight thousand? For a mask that doesn't even do anything?"
- T-Bob
"I hope I'm worth thirty eight big ones when I'm two thousand."
"You're already priceless, T-Bob."
"No, I'm already bored!"
- T-Bob and Matt Trakker
"Can't lose the little garbage can."
- Sly Rax
"Hello?"
"Hello, this is Miles Mayhem. Would you be the leader of M.A.S.K.?"
"You... have a wrong number."
"I've got your number, Mr. Matt Trakker - and your number is up!"
- Matt Trakker and Miles Mayhem
"We have him, Trakker, and he'll be fine as long as you'll do as I say. First: the Trakker fortune will henceforth be devoted solely to V.E.N.O.M.'s use. Second..."
"Feel like I'm going to a funeral instead of a mission."
"Perhaps you can be alone, yet not alone"
"Perhaps you can say somethin' I understand some day?"
- Bruce Sato and Dusty Hayes
"Keep your chin up."
"I don't have a chin!"
- Matt Trakker and T-Bob
"Dang! Without my mask, I feel like I'm in one of them dreams where you forget to put your pants on."

Errors[]
- During the chase between Piranha and T-Bob, Rax passes the same buildings twice, including one that has a billboard that says "My House".
- Matt Trakker refers to Boulder Hill as "Boulder Mountain."
- When Gloria & Dusty are seen packing all the M.A.S.K. masks at Boulder Hill, Dusty is holding Spectrum and Lifter, even though Matt & Bruce were just seen wearing these masks in San Francisco.
- After the crystal skull explodes, Mayhem can still be seen carrying it as he climbs into Switchblade.
- During the safety tip segment, the wall behind Scott's bed, including part of the bedpost, turns the same color purple as the drapes midway through a shot.
