his name, Captain Scarlet.

(uplifting military percussion music)

- Is everything ready? Yes, sir.

- Good, well let's take a look.

Switch on the monitor.

There's is, the Unitron. Magnificent.

- It looks just like a conventional tank, sir.

- Ah, it may look like a conventional tank,

but it's the most advanced piece of equipment

of it's kind ever developed.

All right, Captain, start the test run.

[Captain] Starting Unitron on manual control.

There she goes, the ultimate in tanks,

fast, deadly, and virtually unstoppable.

A direct hit from a missile wont even slow her down.

Put her through paces, captain. - Yes, sir.

(engine roaring)

- Switch to computer control and

program it on to the target.

- Yes, General.

Under computer control, target selected.

(blasting)

(explosion)

Will the Supreme Commander be satisfied?

- Satisfied?

When he arrives from New York tomorrow

and sees the Unitron in action, I say he'd be delighted.

(dramatic percussion music)

- [Foreboding Voice] This is the voice of the Mysterons.

We know you can hear us, Earthmen.

We have not forgotten.

We will destroy the Supreme Commander of Earth forces

within the next 24 hours.

Supreme Commander,

you have only 24 more hours to live.

(suspenseful orchestral music)

(upbeat cheerful music)

- Is nobody safe from these Mysterons?

- Your safety is our responsibility, sir.

- We accept it. - I still don't like it.

They seem to strike anyone and anywhere.

Well, I'll have to get back to New York right away.

They're expecting me at SHEF.

Two of my best men will go with you.

Captain Scarlet. - Yes, sir?

- [Colonel] Captain Blue. Sir.

- Together with the angels,

you will escort the Supreme Commander to SHEF.

(dramatic percussion music)

- Destiny Angel, immediate launch.

- SIG.

(engine roaring to life)

- Immediate launch, angels two and three.

- [Angel] SIG.

- Request launch clearance.

- Spectrum is green.

(engine roaring to life)

(cheerful orchestral music)

(engines blasting off)

All angels sky borne, sir.

(dramatic percussion music)

- We're behind schedule, Major.

- We made a late start, Colonel.

- That's no excuse.

The Supreme Commander demands punctuality.

- Yes, sir. - And so do I.

- Major Brooks to SHEF.

Colonel Storm and I are approaching Catskill Tunnel,

ETA New York, 1800 hours.

- I'll sure be glad to get through the tunnel

into the mountains. - Uh huh.

- It's too darn hot down here.

We'll have to wait. The light s against us

Better slow down.

Hey Pete, stop.

What's the matter with you? We'll hit something.

(suspenseful orchestral music)

- What the?

(explosion)

(crackling flames)

(slow somber orchestral music)

(foreboding orchestral music)

(cheerful orchestral music)

(slow suspenseful orchestral music)

Sorry I didn't meet you at the airport, sir.

I almost didn't make it.

My personal aid, gentlemen, Major Brooks.

- Shall we go through processing, sir?

The conference is waiting.

- Right, lead the way, Major.

(slow foreboding orchestral music)

- Do you feel all right, Captain Scarlet?

(buzzing)

- [Intercom] Identification.

- Supreme Commander, Earth Forces.

- Major Brooks, SHEF.

- Captain Scarlet, Spectrum.

- Captain Blue, Spectrum.

- [Intercom] Security bank, how do you read them?

[Security Bank] I read the magnetic field,

positive identification.

I read them negative weapons.

Negative health risk.

Negative nuclear emission.

I read them clear.

- [Intercom] You are clear to proceed.

- Come on.

- Gentlemen, the Supreme Commander, Earth Forces.

- Now this conference is a briefing on a new weapon.

which has recently been developed, the Unitron.

We shall follow this up by testing it

in the world exercise we're holding in the Sahara Desert.

For the past two and a half years,

the scientists and engineers, metallurgists and

ballistic experts have worked together

on the Unitron project, and from the reports I've received,

I consider all the time and effort devoted to the Unitron

has now been fully justified.

We believe that the Unitron is the ultimate in

conventional weapons.

- World Commander, we will be avenged.

(dramatic orchestral music)

(explosion)

(dramatic percussion music)

- Well Captain, the whole thing is almost unbelievable.

You mean to tell me that it was

Major Brooks himself who exploded?

Yes, sir.

The Mysterons have the power of retro-metabolism.

They can reconstruct a person

and use him for their own ends.

Major Brooks was a walking booby trap,

intent on one thing, your destruction.

- Incredible, and if Captain Scarlet hadn't pressed

the emergency button?

- We would all have been blown to pieces.

- How did Scarlet know?

- He has a strange sixth sense about the Mysterons.

Uncanny and frightening

I'll be relieved when we reach the command post.

(slow foreboding orchestral music)

- This is Captain Black, relaying instructions.

from the Mysterons on Mars.

The first attempt to assassinate

the Supreme Commander has failed.

Only you can hear this voice, Colonel Storm

You know what you must do.

- I'm all right, sir.

(upbeat military music)

- [Radio] Desert Command to staff car.

Request field word.

- This is the Supreme Commander's staff car.

The field word is battle master.

- [Radio] Proceed.

(upbeat military music)

- Welcome to .783, sir.

(dramatic orchestral music)

Don't be so jumpy, Captain.

It isn't loaded.

- We don't take chances.

- It's a Repeato, automatic, developed quite recently.

I thought the Supreme Commander might--

Not now, Colonel.

Let s begin the exercise.

Whenever you're ready, sir.

- Right, go ahead.

Start the exercise.

(engine roaring to life)

(explosion)

The Unitron is designed for use against

mechanized computer controlled forces, not men.

- Well, it looks most impressive.

- It certainly does.

- They can operate on any terrain and overcome

all obstacles and of course, they're unmanned.

How is it controlled?

- By a trained operator or they can be programmed

to seek and destroy a preordained target automatically.

- Yes, sir?

Anything to report, Captain Blue?

- No, sir.

Phase one of the exercise SIG.

Right, angels one, two, and three are now patrolling .783.

Captain Scarlet is standing by.

Right, sir.

I think I'd like to take a closer look at the Unitron.

Lets go out onto the observation point.

- Sir, I really don't think you should.

- Come, come, Captain.

Surely nothing can happen to the Supreme Commander

whilst he s under Spectrums protection.

- No, but we shouldn't take unnecessary risks.

This way, sir.

- I really must insist.

- Captain, don't be so jumpy.

(firing)

Eh, certainly proving its capabilities.

Most satisfactory.

Seems to be heading this way.

(firing)

What the blue blazes is happening?

- Inside, sir. This is no exercise.

(firing)

(explosion)

That was close.

This is an emergency.

The Unitron is attacking the command post.

Right, Captain. We'll handle this.

Lieutenant Green, send in the angels.

- Angels one, two, and three, Spectrum is red.

Engage hostile Unitron at .783.

- SIG. - [Angel] SIG.

SIG.

- Lets go.

(firing)

(explosion)

- What's your explanation, Captain?

And it better be good.

I can't understand it. The Unitron's out of my control.

- What? Explain yourself, man.

- Well, someone has programmed the computer control.

It won't stop until it destroys its target.

- And that seems to be this command post.

(firing)

(explosion)

- The command post won't take this much longer, sir.

- Right, angels one, two, and three are attacking now.

(explosion)

(explosion)

(explosion)

- Look at that, nothing can stop it.

- Those missiles didn't even slow it down.

In different circumstances I'd be delighted.

As it is, I'd only give us about 10 more minutes.

There is nothing I can do, sir, absolutely nothing.

(explosion)

(crackling flames)

- Well Captain, it's up to Spectrum now.

(dramatic percussion music)

(Middle Eastern music)

Yes?

I'll see to it straight away.

Thank you

Goodbye.

- Captain Scarlet, Spectrum.

Pursuit vehicle 428 immediately.

Identification please.

Thank you.

(explosion)

- The Unitron is still firing.

We can't hold out much longer.

- Captain Scarlet will be with you in six minutes.

Do exactly as he says.

(Middle Eastern music)

I'm approaching command post.

- 783 is under severe attack from the Unitron.

It will not respond to control.

Your assignment is to get the Supreme Commander

out and away at all costs.

(explosion)

- Bring the Supreme Commander out immediately.

- SIG, Captain Scarlet.

We have a Spectrum pursuit vehicle outside, sir.

You must leave right away.

I'm making you responsible for the Supreme Commander.

Go with him.

Right, Captain.

I'll take care of him.

(firing)

- Well, at least it looks like they made it.

(crashing)

- It's coming through the wall.

This is it. - Wait.

It's changed course.

It's going after the SPV.

That can mean only one thing.

- What are you getting at?

- Whatever it's homing on to, is in that SPV.

(dramatic orchestral music)

(explosion)

- Its only a matter of time before were hit.

- I don't understand.

Why did it alter course and come after us?

- Where's your sixth sense, Earthman?

- You? - Don't try anything.

(gun firing)

(playful orchestral music)

(screeching tires)

(crashing)

(explosion)

- You're losing a lot of blood, Captain.

I'll get you to a hospital as soon as possible.

(dramatic percussion music)

- Colonel Storm programmed the attack on himself.

What kind of a man was that?

- Not a man, General, a Mysteron.

- Will they go on trying to kill the Supreme Commander?

- No, he s safe now.

The Mysterons will leave him alone.

With them, it's a war of nerves.

They'll choose another victim.

- Captain Blue?

After thanking you for all you've done,

I must say this, I think you've acted disgracefully

regarding Captain Scarlet.

He had three bullets in him and you Spectrum people

insisted on waiting three hours for your own helicopter.

He could have been in the military hospital in 10 minutes.

There are special circumstances, sir.

- Special circumstances?

That man saved my life and you've probably sacrificed his.

- I agree.

It seems to me, you need every man you've got

against the Mysterons.

- Gentlemen, I cannot elaborate,

but I will say this,

Captain Scarlet will live.

He will continue the fight against the Mysterons.

Maybe sooner than you think.
