The girls quickly resumed their search across the island and soon discovered Britney's abandoned plane, which to their surprise was intact and undamaged. By accessing the external cameras, the girls learnt that Britney' plane had in fact been ensnared by a tractor beam, forcing it to land on the island...

"Brit didn't crash," said Sam as she, Clover and Alex finished reviewing the plane footage on the compowder. "She was forced down! But why, and by who?"
Silently deciding that nothing more could be gained by just hanging around, the spies began to head back to the jungle to resume their search. But before they could take another step forward, Sam's spider-sense urgently began buzzing again, and she quickly grabbed hold of the others and pulled them back, just narrowly avoiding getting caught in a net trap which sprung right in front of them!
"Whoa! Nice save there, Sammy," said Alex, as they regarded the empty net swinging from the tree branches above them.
"Totally! Another step and we'd have been ensnared!" agreed Clover.
"Don't relax yet, girls," warned Sam. "My spider-sense is still buzzing. There's something in those bushes next to us!"
Moving swiftly, Spider-Woman fired a couple of web-lines into the dense vegetation, on the other side of which, a man could be heard crying out in alarm. Sam gave a sharp pull on the lines, and a figure in a white lab coat with a deformed face flew out, crashing onto the ground at the spies' feet.
"Hey, it's that crazy Surgeon that Jerry's files warned us about!" realised Clover. "Looks like he was trying to get the drop on us."
"Say, maybe he knows where Britney is," suggested Alex.
Spider-Woman grabbed hold of the Surgeon by the scruff of his neck and effortlessly lifted him into the air with one hand. "Okay pal, start talking. Have you seen any other WOOHP agents around here in the last few hours?"
Initially taken aback at having been overpowered so easily, the Surgeon regained his composure and spat at the ground at Sam's feet. "You don't frighten me, girl, with your muscles and fancy-dress costumes! I shall never talk! Never!"
Sam began vigorously shaking the Surgeon about in the air, and the crazed inmate quickly lost his resolve.
"Okay, okay! Willard, he's the one who brought your friend's plane down. It was all part of the plan to trick you into smuggling us off the island!"
"Willard's behind all this?" remarked the Invisible Girl, remembering the crazy scientist who had once tried to slow the whole Earth down. "So what exactly was this plan of his?"
The Surgeon gulped. "I, um, was s-supposed to bring you to my lair and allow you to es-escape. Willard would be waiting for you, d-disguised as your teammate to trick you in-into taking us off this is-island."
