Sub-zero was able to hold off smoke with his ice arms and ice forming around smoke's body "What do you want smoke?" "I think we both know that I want to return the favor of you killing me," "I didn't have a choice you were being control and you were going kill everyone." Sub-zero froze smoke up completely keeping him there in place and looks over to where Tanja was and motioning her to leave which gave smoke enough time to break out of the ice that was expanding and contracting to the gassy and solid form. As sub-zero turned around smoke puts his hand in sub-zero stomach and moving it up through the body until he got to the heart and pulls it out of his chest.
