From Topless Robot: Linka Gets Kidnapped, Hooked on Drugs, Goes Heroin Chic and Watches her Cousin Die of a Drug Overdose in Captain Planet

Perhaps feeling that things had been a little too warm and cuddly lately, the creative team behind Captain Planet and the Planeteers decided to shake things up a bit and show their viewership exactly how they really felt about the subject of drug abuse. The episode known as "Mind Pollution" takes a very "that's what you get, druggie!" approach to drug addiction (at one point Wheeler, while standing over a bleeding drug addict even declares "Oh yeah, well nobody made him take the drug, he did that to himself!") and is set appropriately in Washington D.C., home of The War On Drugs. This episode centers around 16 year-old Russian planeteer Linka ("Wind!") and a highly addictive new drug called "Bliss" which is being distributed by the rat-like Ecovillain Verminous Skumm so that he can take over the world by controlling an army of drug addicts, a plan destined to succeed considering how reliable drug addicts are in terms of showing up for things in general. The real trouble begins when Linka's cousin Boris gets hooked on Bliss; When he runs out, he begs Verminous to give him more in exchange for Linka's Planeteer ring, an offer Verminous refuses, saying that he'll only settle for Linka herself, for who knows what disturbing reason. Feigning drugfreenicity, Boris drugs Linka's snack wrap and delivers her to Skumm. The Planeteers eventually free Linka and flee Skumm's drug-zombie army only to have the drama conclude with cousin Boris' abrupt death scene, set ever so tactfully on the dome of the U.S. Capitol Building, teaching us that drugs can cause zombie-like behavior and deaths on top of governmental landmarks.
