[PILOT 1 over radio]
Enemy projectile

maintaining tracking status.

Impact in 23 seconds.

They're still behind your group,
Captain Hunter.

[PILOT over radio]
Captain, sir, we're picking up

a sudden heat emission.

[explosion]

The projectile has
activated proto-boosters.

Rick, Hurry up!
Get out of there.

[RICK over radio]
All units, evasive maneuver!

Good work.
Missiles have lost position,

but they've swung around,
and they're now pursuing.

[RICK]
Roger, Control.

We've got them on our
tracking monitors

I'm planning a little
surprise for them.

Let's go!

[PILOT 1]
Impact in seven seconds.

[RICK] All units,
fire plasma torpedoes.

That was too close for comfort.

[RICK] We have located
the Zentraedi missile site.

Fire at will.

[PILOT 2] Captain, scanners
indicate no signs of life.

[RICK] Change to battloid.
We'll go in for a closer look.

[LISA over radio]
Be careful, Rick.

It may be a trap.

[RICK] Looks like the place
was deserted when we hit it.

I think those missiles
were on remote control.

[PILOT 2] Hey, Captain,
take a look at this stockpile.

[RICK] Hmm, they must've
been in some hurry

to leave an
arsenal like this.

We'll run a check
on any weapons

that might be in
the vicinity, Captain.

- -[device buzzing]
- -Ah, Ground Control here.

Captain, we just received
word from Intelligence

that Khyron is planning
some kind of uprising.

Thank you, Field Command.

Watch him closely
and keep us posted.

- -Over and out.
- -[FIEILD COMMAND] Roger.

[PILOT 1]
Serial numbers suggest

the weapons
are Khyron's, Captain.

I was afraid of that.

Rick, you better exercise
utmost caution.

It appears Khyron's
around here someplace.

I'll keep an eye out for him.

Everything is just as I planned.
These Micronians are so naive.

Battlepods are now
approaching objective.

No sign of any fighters.

They fell for it.

[laughs]

[MINMEI]
7 I always think of you 7

7 Dream of you late at night 7

[AUDIENCE cheering]

[MINMEI]
7 What do you do? 7

[distant rumbling]

[MINMEI]
7 When I turn out the light 7

[thudding]

[MINMEI]
7 No matter who I touch 7

[thudding]

[MINMEI]
Flt is you I still see. 7

[gasps]

- -[AUDIENCE panicking]
- -[loud thudding]

[gasps]

[ceiling cracking]

[ALL screaming]

[KYLE]
Minmei, are you crazy?

- -Run!
- -[MINMEI] I... Uh--

[KYLE] Minmei, they're
heading right for us.

Minmei, what's the
matter with you?

You've got to snap out
of it, quick. Come on!

[MINMEI screams]

Are you all right?

- -[MINMEI] Oh!
- -[KYLE] Come on, this way.

[BOTH gasp]

[KHYRON] Well, look what
we have here.

[laughs]

[KYLE, MINMEI gasp]

[KYLE]
Put me down! Let us go!

I wouldn't dream of it.

Wait, Commander.
No harm must come to Minmei.

Huh?

[GIANT 1 groans]

I will not tolerate
disobedience.

To the fortress,
and take the Micronians.

[laughs]

[NARRATOR]
Back at Command headquarters,

Admiral Gloval
waits helplessly

as he watches Khyron's
scheme begin to unfold.

[CLAUDIA] I'm receiving a
transmission from Khyron, sir.

Shall I put it on the screen?

Yes, certainly.

It is a great pleasure to
interrupt you, Admiral Gloval.

[clears throat]
On the contrary,

the disgust is all mine,
I assure you.

That makes me very happy

Oh, I have some
friends of yours here.

[ALL exclaiming]

[KHYRON laughs]

That filthy swine!

Minmei!

This can't be happening.
You're mad!

Do not try my patience,
Micronian,

as I am known to have
a violent temper.

- -We're sorry.
- -[KHYRON] That's better.

Well, your apologies
are humbly accepted.

Now, listen to me carefully.

I want you to know
I mean business, Admiral.

What do you want?

Don't hurt her, I beg you.

Now, listen. Deliver the
space fortress to me

tomorrow by 1200 hours.

[BOTH gasp]

[MAN 1]
But that's impossible!

[MAN 2]
You are crazy, Khyron!

Ah, but there's a method
to my madness.

As for this other hostage,

I will free him when
you return my arsenal.

[KYLE] Don't do it, Admiral.
Don't listen to them.

Now, you mind your manners.

It's too dangerous!
You can't--

Y-You can't just
give in to this guy!

You're hurting him!

I'd prefer to avoid violence,
but, believe me, Admiral,

I'm more than willing
to carry out my threats.

Do you understand?

I'm sure we'll
arrange something.

[KHYRON]
Well, now that's better.

Uh... Ahem.

Uh, I really must
be going now.

[KHYRON]
Remember, tomorrow morning.

[NARRATOR] Back at Zarkopolis,
Khyron's military fortress,

the Zentraedi rebel toys
with his miniature prisoner,

as he awaits word from
the battlefortress.

[KHYRON]
It is hard to believe

that this helpless
little creature in my hand

is the key to our freedom.

To think they'd give up
the battlefortress for you.

This Micronian sentimentality.

It makes me quite ill
just to think of it.

Oh, to be free of
this miserable planet!

I can hardly wait,
I assure you.

Now, why doesn't
Minmei perform?

[GROUP laughing]

A To be in love 7

F Must be the
sweetest feeling 7

7 That a girl can feel 7

A To be in love 7

A To live a dream 7

5 With somebody you care
about like no one else 7

5 A special man 7

A A dearest man 7

7 Who needs to share
his life with you alone. 7

[MINMEI gasps]

Well, it was a
brave attempt, Minmei.

But, unfortunately for you,
as you can see,

I am immune to your
magical witchcraft.

Well, you had me fooled.

[KHYRON grunts]
Be quiet!

I am speaking to my
little songbird.

She's going to help us
get what we want.

Isn't that right, my pet?

I won't help you,
you big, overgrown clown!

That was not very nice.

Yes, I'm surprised
at you, Minmei,

for losing your temper.

- -Very unladylike of you.
- -[MINMEI] Hmph!

I may just have to teach
you some manners, eh?

- -Yes.
- -[MINMEI gasps]

You think that just because

you're the magnificent Minmei,

that you're better than we are.

Well, I despise your puny music.
Do you hear me?

- -Despite it, I say.
- -[MINMEI groaning]

Khyron, be careful!

Cosmos, what have I done?

She enraged me so,

I forgot how important
she is to our plan.

[KHYRON]
Hm. Hmm...

[MINMEI groans]

She's all right.

They're well-built
little things.

And have you noticed
how flexible they are.

Be careful now,
little Micronian.

[KYLE groaning]

Surely, this is as much fun
for you as it is for me.

[MOTOKOFF]
Admiral, as I'm sure you know,

the situation is
extremely precarious.

Since they've never
taken hostages before,

their behavior is
without precedent.

We have no way of knowing

if they'll make good
on their threat.

I agree. The solution to
the problem is a tricky one.

[clears throat]

You aren't considering giving
in to them, are you?

Putting the SDF-1
into the hands of Khyron

is like committing suicide.

It's absolute madness.

Lieutenant, I hope
you're not suggesting

that we ignore the Zentraedi
threat to Kyle and Minmei.

No.

One thing is clear.

This is a blatant act
of terrorism,

and it must be dealt with
by our most capable officers.

Right.

[GLOVAL]
Yes, well. Ahem.

Then I hope we're
all in agreement

that we should appoint
Captain Hunter

and his squadron
of Veritech fighters

to head the operation.

[CLAUDIA]
According to High Command,

we're to signal Captain Hunter

to initiate Operation
Star-Saver immediately.

He'll be thrilled.

Yes, it looks like it's going
to be a tough one this time,

and you, you lucky devil,

you'll be coordinating for
Captain Hunter once again.

It seems like every time

they have a dangerous
mission to execute,

they get Rick to do
the fighting. It's not fair.

Did you ever stop to think

that maybe it's because
he's the best they've got?

I suppose you're right.

[LISA] Open communications
with Captain Hunter.

Skull Leader, Skull Leader,
this is Base Station.

Do you copy? Please respond.

This is Skull Leader
responding, Base Station.

I hear you loud and clear.

[LISA over radio]
Captain Hunter,

this is Captain Hayes.

It's good to hear
your voice, Captain.

Rick, two people have been
kidnapped by Khyron,

and now he's demanding
the space fortress.

Well, I wonder what
he's up to this time.

Since when did Khyron
start taking hostages?

Who's he got, anyway?

Rick, Kyle is one
of them and, uh...

- -Not Minmei!
- -[LISA] I'm sorry.

I don't believe it.
But why? How?

What happened, Lisa?
Do you know yet?

They attacked a club
late last night.

They scattered the audience
and kidnapped her

right in the middle
of a performance.

I'm always coming
to your rescue.

Do you mind?

What are you so upset about?

Captain, you will
please remember

there's no place
for amateur heroics

during an operation
like this. Understand?

Oh, really?
I didn't know that.

That is all. Out! Hmph!

I'm sorry if I
upset you, Lisa, but--

I have to save Minmei

if it's the last
mission I ever fly.

[NARRATOR] Two hours later,
after having been briefed,

Skull Squadron assembles
on the flight deck,

and prepares to go into action.

Rick, please be careful.

Khyron will stop
at nothing, you know that.

Look, I appreciate
your concern,

but we've been over
the operation

and I'm sure there's
nothing to be afraid of.

I'm afraid you'll lose
your objectivity.

Rick.

Yes, I love her very much,

I won't lie to you, Lisa.

But I resolved my feelings
about her a long time ago.

We can never be together.

I'm flying this
mission as a pilot.

And you're a good one, Rick.

Just don't lose
your perspective, that's all.

I'm commanding
an entire squadron.

You think I'd jeopardize
their safety

just because of my feelings?

Emotions are so compelling,
I just can't be sure.

What?

It's nothing.
Forget I said anything.

I'll be back.

[LISA gasps]
Good luck, Rick.

[WOMAN over radio] Skull Leader,
the flight deck is clear.

You now have a green
light for takeoff.

[LISA] I'm sorry, Rick.
Please come home safely.

This is Base Command
to all units. Attention!

Operation Star-Saver
is now underway.

[NARRATOR]
Khyron, the evil Zentraedi

who holds Kyle
and Minmei captive,

is celebrating
his imminent victory.

Ah. Let us drink
to our success.

[KHYRON]
Here you are, my dear.

[BOTH chuckle]

She's amazing, my lord.

I believe I'll have another,
and fill it up, all right?

My dear Azonia, I believe
you could out-drink all of us.

And I'm just starting.

Excellent, Commander.
Excellent!

[BOTH grunting]

[MINMEI grunts] We'll have
to find another way.

There is no other way.
We'll never get out of here.

No, Kyle, don't say that.

Whatever happens to us,

no matter what he does to us,

they must never give in
to that barbarian's demands.

Imagine the ship
in Khyron's hands!

Will they try to rescue us?

I wouldn't hold
my breath, Minmei.

[MINMEI sighs]

Then there isn't much
to hope for, is there?

In fact, there's
nothing to hope for.

Kyle, we just can't lose hope.
That's all we've got.

Minmei, all the
hope in the world

is useless in a
situation like this.

If only Rick were here,
I know he'd save us.

Hey, you Zentraedi.

- -Hey, you overgrown gorillas!
- -[KHYRON, AZONIA gasp]

What a bunch of
brainless baboons!

All you can think about
is your own bellies, huh?

What about your own comrades?

What do you think about that?

Does it make you happy,

knowing that you've
slaughtered your own people?

Why can't you goons
live in peace for a change?

I'll tell you why.
Because that would take courage,

and you're a bunch
of cowards, that's why.

[KHYRON growls]

[MINMEI screams]

[AZONIA] Careful, Khyron,
remember the space fortress.

Why, you puny little things!

If it weren't for the
fact that I need you,

I'd--1'd crush you
just for pleasure.

[MINMEI] Be careful, Kyle,
he's had a lot to drink.

You see, I too have learned
something about pleasure.

[AZONIA]
Huh?

[AZONIA sighs]

[BOTH gasp]

Oh, excuse me, Lord Khyron,

I'm sorry to have to
interrupt your demonstration.

[KHYRON]
Hmm?

I, uh, thought you
might want to know

that we seem to
be under attack.

- -Under attack?
- -[GREL] Yes, sir.

[KHYRON]
Enough, Azonia!

I was just beginning to
enjoy your demonstration.

It's no time for that now.

Greetings and salutations,
Lord Khyron,

Master of the peoples--

[screams]

What is happening there?

Fighters are everywhere, sir.

They've taken us
completely by surprise.

We'll try to hold them off
for as long as we can.

[GIANT 2] Please, sir, you must
send reinforcements--

[GIANT 3]
It could be a diversion, sir.

Micronians aren't
intelligent enough for that.

So this is how they
answer my demands.

The time has come
to destroy them all!

Excuse me. Can you
give me some fire?

[PILOT] Yeah, sure, no problem.
Here you are.

Thanks. Careful now.

You Micronians live well.

Khyron, may we please
continue the demonstration?

Just as soon as
I return, Azonia.

In fact, why don't
you come with us?

These Micronians
don't stand a chance.

We'll enjoy a moment's
pleasure with them. Come on!

It's inviting, but I
don't have a Battlepod.

[KHYRON] Oh, Azonia,
that's no problem, my dear.

We'll find you another one.

Oh, really?
That would be wonderful.

We will share the experience
our people love most.

Yes, we'll go into
battle together.

Good. I sense a
great victory.

[KHYRON] All warriors,
report to battle formations

and prepare to move out.

[AZONIA]
Show no mercy!

I forget. Does one kick
on the ship mean "forward"?

No, it means "bear left."

What does it matter?

We better do something or
he'll start screaming at us.

[KHYRON] Hmm?
Get moving, you idiots!

Forward! Take no prisoners!

[PILOT 1]
Destroy the enemy!

[PILOT 2]
Smash the Micronians!

[Man on radio] Pelican Mother,
this is Eyes-Front.

Do you copy?
The dark star has fallen.

[LISA over radio]
Roger, Eyes-Front.

We copy you loud and clear.

Skull Squadron, you now
have green light. Over.

Roger. We're ready.

[BOTH grunting]

[KHYRON] Micronians,
prepare to meet your doom!

[ZENTRAEDI SOLDIER]
It's time. Come on, let's go.

[KHYRON] Where are you going?
We have come to save you!

Huh?

All units, stop.

Huh? It's a trap.

Show no mercy
to the traitors! Fire!

[KHYRON]
Forward!

[LISA] Skull Squadron,
this is Pelican Mother.

The trap is sprung. Over.

[PILOT] Roger.
Approaching assault objective.

Captain, that's your
signal to begin.

- -[RICK] Roger!
- -[LISA] Be careful, Rick.

There are three Battlepods
still guarding the objective.

I'll be going in low,
so don't worry.

[LISA] Just don't lose
your perspective, that's all.

[MINMEI]
It can't end this way, Rick.

Soon, we'll be together.

Minmei, I'm coming to save you,

and nobody better
try and stop me.

- -[rumbling]
- -[ALL gasp]

[GIANT 3]
Fire!

[RICK]
Minmei, are you all right?

Yes, Rick. I knew
you'd come for me.

[RICK]
Of course.

It's been a... long time.

[KYLE] Hey, will you
get us out of here?

[RICK] Airborne Command,
this is Skull Leader.

Operation Star-Saver,
mission accomplished.

[KYLE] I tell you,
he came blasting in

without any regard
for our safety.

That maniac almost
got us killed!

We executed the mission to
the best of our abilities.

If Captain Hunter's conduct
was unacceptable,

then file a report.

File a report?
That's nonsense.

Just let me get
my hands on him.

[MINMEI] Argh! Stop it!
You ought to be ashamed.

Can't you see that
all these people

risked their lives for us,
you ungrateful oaf?

[RICK]
I did it for you, Minmei.

[KYLE]
Huh?

[RICK] I sure didn't
do it for Kyle.

[KYLE] I'd expect that
from you, Hunter.

Ohh.

Thanks, Rick.

You're welcome.
I was happy to do it.

Oh, Rick!

Minmei.

You must know I'd be willing

to risk my life for you
again and again.

[MINMEI]
Ohhh!

[MINMEI sobs]

Huh? I'm out of power.

[GIANT 4] Sir,
the Protoculture level is zero.

Blast all those Micronians.

Take that!

[KHYRON]
Azonia!

[KHYRON]
Azonia, are you all right?

No Protoculture left.

[KHYRON]
We'll head back to base.

Without that Protoculture,
we're entirely at their mercy.

Legions, fall back!
All pods retreat!

Uh... Khyron's in full retreat.

All right.

Radio Admiral
Gloval immediately.

Right away.

And tell him
I'll be sending in

Captain Hunter to mop up.

- -[LISA clears throat]
- -[RICK] Huh?

I hope I'm not
interrupting anything, Captain,

but Khyron is on the run,
and I want you to pursue him.

[MINMEI]
Huh?

I almost didn't make
it back the first time.

Isn't that enough for you?

Are you refusing my orders?

[RICK grunts]
You're darn right I'm refusing!

If you're so eager
to go after Khyron,

why don't you
just do it yourself?

All right, 1 will.

If that's what you want,
Captain Hunter,

then you've got it.

[RICK]
Hmpf! Forget it.

I've gone this far,
I might as well finish the job.

I apologize, Rick.

It's my duty, right?

It seems I have to say
goodbye again, Minmei.

Huh? I know you'll
come back soon.

[RICK]
Don't worry.

I'll be waiting for you.

- -We'll never be together.
- -No, Rick.

[RICK] But, remember,
I will always love you.

And I'll always
love you too, Rick.

But goodbye for now.

- -[MINMEI] Rick!
- -[LISA] Minmei, stop!

[MINMEI]
No! No! No!

[grunts]

[gasps]

[RICK]
I'll be back for you, Minmei.

Somehow, I'll get back.
I promise.

[LISA]
Oh, Rick.

[chuckles]
