Synopsis:
The Hellcats are sent to Crete where they are to contact the head of the Cretan underground Zorba. To prevent them from divulging critical plans if captured, the Hellcats are each given a poison pill that will kill them in 24 hours if they don't return to receive the antidote. As they are leaving London, Heller spots Tommy Carlin, the man who murdered her father. She is forced to let him go because of the limited duration of her mission.
The Hellcats arrive in Crete and are met by Melina, Zorba's wife. She informs the soldiers that Zorba was taken prisoner by the Nazi Colonel Minotaur. The Hellcats allows themselves to be captured and placed in a maze with Zorba. They then use hidden explosives to escape. Once Zorba is free, then alert him to the upcoming invasion before they head to sea where they receive the antidote within the 24 hour period.
