Warning: Spoilers
This time there's a "Dragon" terrorising a Thai village.

It's a pretty fun episode. Jungles, dragon, temples, underwater passages.

Captain Planet and his terrible one liners are the WORST part of the episode. Like "I'm vine" - awful.

We get a look at the budding romance between Wheeler and Linka. I can't believe she puts up so little resistance. They're practically already making out if it wasn't for the rampaging beast. Wheeler is pretty hot though.

Ma-Ti once again shines with his powers; checking to see if the river is free of crocodiles and reading Wheeler's thoughts (which can apparently be blocked by evil thoughts - that's weird and convenient).

The Dragon take down at the end, wrapped in vines and pulled into a pit is suitably epic. It actually looks pretty badass.

I kind of feel sorry for any Thai viewers. It's pretty dumbed down and borderline insulting. The old man at the start is clearly white. Also of course the Asian girl just happens to have a Thai friend from university or whatever; they all know each other right? There's only a few billion of them.

Solid, fun adventure with good use of powers.
