Snow Blind

Max, in one of the air jets, is on his way north for a vacation with Pete & Laura and speaks to Berto, who is supposed to be on vacation. He passes the snowy slopes where Laura & Pete are snowboarding, in time to see Pete falter and fall over the edge of a cliff, clinging to a branch. Josh then arrives to help pull him back up. They go to the lodge, where Josh & Laura are about to get romantic when Pete interrupts to invite them skidooing. So they go, and Josh sees none other than Psycho on the slopes. He loses Pete & Laura and goes after Psycho, with help from Berto, who still hasn't left for vacation yet. Psycho leads Max to an ice cave. It seems that Dread sent Psycho to retrieve something called Infinity Ice, a liquid that instantly freezes things. Before Max can find Psycho, though, Pete and Laura happen upon the cave and he must morph back into Josh to go to them.

They are about to leave the cave when there is a cave-in and they must run through the tunnels to escape. Berto guides them, much to Josh's surprise as he didn't think satellite's could penetrate ice caves. But then Josh falls down a hole in the ground and lands in a glass tube right in Psycho's lair. He morphs back into Max, and is about to go into Turbo Mode when he is hit by Infinity Ice. He freezes. Psycho then goes after Pete & Laura, but Dread makes him get his priorities straight. Max, because he had gone into Turbo Mode before freezing, is able to escape, but with low power. He finds and fights Psycho, then morphs back into Josh to retrieve his friends and escape the cave. Just as they're skidooing away, there is an avalanche. Laura & Pete escape, and Josh escapes into the air jet. He heads back to Del Oro, realizing that it was Dread he's been talking to all along and not Berto. He keeps Dread's goons from releasing the Infinity Ice in Del Oro, just as his power level reaches zero. Later, back to full power after a shot of T-juice, Josh is back at the lodge with Laura, who was worried about him. They are about to get all mushy again when Jeff arrives, and he & Josh talk. They realize that now Dread knows about Josh's secret identity. Fortunately, Berto has made sure Dread will no longer be able to use the Bio-link.
