Realizing that their added weight is pulling Lugia down, Team Rocket lets go of Lugia so that Ash can get safely back to Shamouti Island and save the world. Thinking that this is the end, Jessie, James and Meowth fall toward the frozen sea, and luckily splash down in water through a hole in the ice!
