[NARRATOR] Max Sterling
has defeated Miriya,

the Micronized Zentraedi
warrior, in battle.

Ironically, however,

the two fall in love
and are married.

Unable to thwart
the planned union

of the two races,

Breetai proposes
an alternate plan.

But his soldiers,
lured by the amenities

of Micronian life,
begin to rebel.

I've got something
on the screen.

It's an alien battleship, sir!

Hmm. Prepare to fire
main cannon.

Have all weapon systems
lock onto target!

Systems are go,
now moving into position.

[SOLDIER]
Main cannon standing by to fire

on your command, Captain!

Hm. I bet this is some kind
of trick or something!

A trick? Now where on Earth

would you get an idea
like that from?

Well, that's the way
it always happens in the movies!

- -Oh, brother.
- -Oh?

So I suppose you have
a better theory, huh?

- -[VANESSA] Captain Gloval, sir!
- -Hmm?

I have a message coming in.

- -It's from the alien ship!
- -What?

They request permission
to approach the SDF-1.

[SAMMIE]
I didn't figure on this.

Shall I put it up
on the monitor, Captain?

Hmm.

[ZENTRAEDI SOLDIER] I repeat,
we are approaching unarmed.

We request a cessation
of hostilities.

Please hold your fire.
We are approaching unarmed.

Captain, I am now picking up
a small convoy!

What're they up to now?

[NARRATOR]
Suddenly, without warning,

the Zentraedi flagship
opens fire on its own fighters

as if to defend
the SDF-1 from the attack.

Commander, have you gone mad?

Your ships were interfering
with a diplomatic mission,

so I disposed of them.

What happens now, then?

I refuse to let
the Micronians go!

I have my orders, Khyron.

And I will hear no further
discussion on the subject.

Ridiculous!

Hmm. Hardly.

[NARRATOR] Following orders
from the high command,

Breetai has
the Zentraedi flagship

approach the SDF-1

with no further acts
of hostility.

A strange sight indeed.

[CLAUDIA] They're just sitting
out there, Captain.

I guess they're waiting
for us to make a move.

[GLOVAL] Perhaps they
really do want peace.

Why else would they attack
and destroy their own fighters?

[NARRATOR] Captain Gloval
orders a squadron

of Robotech fighters
to fly out,

meet the Zentraedi emissary,

and escort his vessel
back to the SDF-1.

[PILOT on radio]
I can't believe it, sir.

This is really weird escorting
an enemy pod ship of all things.

It sure is.

And it's getting
weirder all the time.

Oh, brother.

[CLAUDIA on PA] Escort squadron
is now down and secure.

Maintenance crews D through L

report to flight deck C
immediately.

[EXEDORE]
Aren't you forgetting something?

Oh, please forgive me,
Your Excellency, I'm sorry!

[EXEDORE] Hmph! How do these
Micronians survive

with such frail little bodies?

Rather an imposing sight,
aren't we, eh?

[SOLDIER]
Attention!

I am Colonel Maistroff
of the United Earth Forces.

I bring you greetings
from our fleet commander

Captain Gloval.

Huh?

- -This is how we greet friends.
- -Oh.

I am called Exedore
among my people...

Minister of affairs.

It sounds rather... important.

Not really.

[laughs] I'll take you
to the Commander.

Uh, excuse me,
Minister Exedore,

could you ask him to wait
here on the flight deck?

Uh, stay here
and guard the pod!

[SOLDIER]
Yes, sir!

You men look around
and see if you can find him

something to eat.

[BOTH]
Yes, sir!

[engine revving]

Find him something to eat?

He's gotta be kidding!

I bet all the food in this ship

wouldn't even put a dent
in his appetite.

Really. I'd sure hate to see

the size of their grocery bills
at the end of the month.

Well, we might
as well get started.

[EXEDORE]
Very interesting.

Huh? Oh!

What's this?

Why, this is
our shopping district.

Ah, yes, I believe this is where
you use something called money

to acquire goods.

Yes, that's correct.

[groaning]

That picture on the building
over there.

Duh, uh, would you mind
explaining it to me?

[coughing]

Well, actually, it is
a little hard to explain.

A-ha!

Most likely a military secret.

Very clever. Indeed.

Yes! Of course!
A military secret. Mm-hmm.

[SOLDIER on radio] The Emissary
has arrived in the main

conference room, Captain.

I'm on my way.

Status on Zentraedi vessel?

[VANESSA]
Maintaining position.

Very well. Don't lose contact.

- -Oh, Claudia?
- -Sir?

Continue monitoring.

If they take any hostile action,
fire at once.

- -Is that clear?
- -Yes, sir!

[EXEDORE] At last we meet
face-to-face, Captain.

[GLOVAL]
Yes.

- -Here you are.
- -What?

Hmm. Huh.

This is very refreshing.

[chuckles]
Here, have another.

Well... if you insist.

Hmm. I think we're missing
some people, aren't we?

Some. But they should be
arriving any minute now.

In fact, this may be them.

[MAX]
Sir. Reporting as ordered.

Ah! Hello, Quadrano leader!

[gasps]
I'm sorry, sir.

I didn't realize that
you were the Emissary!

I found your pairing ritual
quite provocative.

Oh, you observed
the wedding ceremony?

Oh, you probably wondered
why we did it.

Yes. Just as you're
probably wondering

what I'm doing here.

[MIRIYA]
Well, yes, I was, sir.

And this must be
the male half of your pair.

- -Uh... that's right, sir.
- -Huh? Hmm.

Gee, you don't seem
too thrilled about it.

Reporting!

Hey, Max, you don't look
so good. Are you all right?

- -[EXEDORE] That's it!
- -Huh?

The Micronization process
has affected my memory.

You're the two hostages
from Dolza's flagship,

- -aren't you?
- -What's happening here?

This time, the circumstances
are a bit different.

But tell me, how did
you manage to escape?

Was it some secret
Micronian power?

Uh, I guess so.

Mm-hmm.

That's another one
of your military secrets.

- -[GLOVAL] Here they are now.
- -Huh?

- -Huh?
- -Huh!

[chuckles]

It's Minister Exedore!

I did not expect to see
the instigators

of our mass defection show up.

Your Excellency,
it wasn't our fault.

[MAN] That's right!
We didn't mean it, sir!

We had no control, sir.

You may relax.

I have no intention
of harming you.

- -Phew!
- -Oh!

[MAISTROFF] Captain Gloval,
the ship's computer

will record the proceedings.

[GLOVAL]
Very good. Let us begin.

Now then, Minister Exedore,

we are unclear
as to the exact purpose

of your mission here.

We've been told
very little so far.

Would you please enlighten us?

Your curiosity
is understandable,

but not everyone
is present yet, Captain.

What?

[EXEDORE]
We would like to know more about

two of your kind, gentlemen.

The first possesses powers
that are truly extraordinary,

and a female who's the core
of your psychological assault.

Incredible.

I think he means that movie.

They must have seen it and think
Lynn Kyle's powers are real.

There is clearly
a misunderstanding here.

And what does he mean
psychological assault?

I can't think of anyone
who would be at the core

of a psychological assault.

It would be helpful
if you could be more specific

about the female.

She appears to be performing

some kind of ritual.

A strange little chant.

Do you think he...

- -No, he couldn't!
- -Sure, he could.

You know.

7 Stage fright, go away 7

5 This is my big day
this is my... 7

[ALL]
So he is talking about Minmei!

Alalalala 7

Alalalalala 7

Alalalalalala... A

Oh, I don't believe this.

They must think that
Minmei's singing

is a weapon of some kind.

Have the girl brought here.

[EXEDORE]
That's her! Yes!

- -Oh.
- -Huh?

I'm getting tired
of being pushed around

by the military.

Now, would somebody
mind explaining

why it was so important
for us to come here?

Don't expect any answers
from them, Minmei.

They have no concern at all
about what we want.

That's the way it is, right?

Enough of this nonsense.
You will answer our questions.

What I am about to tell you is
in the strictest confidence.

We need total cooperation
from both of you.

Do you understand?

Yes.

Try to be a little more
cooperative with them.

Your hostility serves
no purpose.

Don't you see?

[GLOVAL] Now, Mr. Minister,
if you would kindly tell us

what this is all about?

All in due time.

But for now, it will have
to suffice that our mission here

is of the highest priority
to us as well as to yourselves.

Hmm. Reading this
Zentraedi's mind is impossible.

I wish I knew
his real motive

for these negotiations.

[NARRATOR] Back on Earth,
at the headquarters

of the United Defense Forces,

all eyes are turned
on the battlefortress

as they follow the negotiations
with nervous anticipation.

[MAN on PA]
Attention, all personnel,

maintain code B alert.

I repeat, all personnel
maintain code B alert.

How do you like your new job?
Everything okay?

Fine. Fine.

I understand that SDF-1
and the Zentraedi Fleet

have reached a
cease-fire agreement.

That's what I hear.

[LISA] Well, if things
keep going this way,

maybe we won't have to use
the Grand Cannon after all.

It's possible, but I doubt it.

Listen, Lisa.
Don't count on the Zentraedi.

They're completely
untrustworthy.

Well, I can't stand around here
talking all day.

I have work to do.

If anything comes up
you need me for,

I'll be in the central core.

Yes, sir.

Oh...

[EXEDORE] Officer Lynn,
what is your military rank?

[KYLE]
I'm a civilian.

A civilian?

With your super powers,
I doubt it.

I have no idea
what you're talking about.

[stammers]

This man is telling you
the truth.

Lynn Kyle possesses
no super powers.

For that matter,
none of us in this room possess

the powers you're referring to.

But we saw him on our monitors!

[GLOVAL] Oh, that was a movie,
merely a form of entertainment.

Then what about
the energy barrier

and destruction waves?

A pinpoint force field
and basic explosives.

Both of these are part
of our normal technology.

It does appear
we've made a great mistake.

But you cannot possibly deny
the power of the female's song!

I wouldn't dream of it.

- -What?
- -Huh?

[MAN] He won't deny it
because it's true!

Minmei's song has
incredible power!

[chuckles]

This is not the first time

we've encountered
something like this.

Many years ago, we were exposed
to a society similar to yours.

And it nearly destroyed us.

What do you mean, "destroyed"?

[EXEDORE] To a Zentraedi,
fighting is a way of life.

Our entire history
is made up of nothing

but battle
after glorious battle.

However, exposure
to an open society

made our soldiers
refuse to fight.

Dolza, our Commander in Chief,

does not wish
to make the same mistake

that our ancestors did.

Therefore, he has sent me
here to observe you.

I'm afraid,
after he reads my report,

he will order
the main fleet to launch

an all-out attack
on the Earth

once he has recovered
the Protoculture factory.

The main fleet, huh?

Do you think that's the same
as the one in your report?

Yes, sir!

Commander?
How long do you intend

for this situation to go on?

Any continuation of
the hostilities would be unwise

due to the current phenomenon.

Hmph! Is that right?

Well, I expect
a different solution

when the main fleet arrives.

Did you say
the main fleet?

What do they have to do
with any of this?

I've reported my findings
to the Commander in Chief.

And his Majesty has decided

to set the main fleet
into motion.

So Dolza now feels
the Micronian society

represents a threat, does he?

- -He does.
- -Well then,

we are doomed along
with the Micronians.

We need their Protoculture.

Protoculture? For what?

We must have theirs
because our supply is exhausted.

Wha...?

[EXEDORE]
What is that?

Are you certain of this?

Yes. Yes.

You know what this means then.

I understand.

Hmm.

You must prepare yourselves
to escape this star system.

[GLOVAL]
And leave the Earth defenseless?

[EXEDORE]
Yes.

That is out of the question!

We have sworn to defend
our planet

against any aggression.

Yes, I understand.

We would not act
any differently.

And since escape for us would
be difficult without your help,

it seems that we shall soon
be fighting a common enemy.

Huh? What's that?

Our flagship
has just now informed me

that the main fleet is headed
for this star system.

Huh?! The main fleet?!

[EXEDORE] Yes.
Consisting of more than

four million
eight hundred thousand

battle-ready warships.

With the destructive force
of a small nova.

[GLOVAL] All right then,
it looks as though we have

an important decision to make.

Whether or not the Earth
can survive such an attack.

Only time will tell.

We'll give it our best shot!

- -[KYLE] You're crazy!
- -Mm-hmm.

A fleet of almost five million?

There's no way we can fight
them off. We're finished!

[MAX]
Miriya, darling.

I'm afraid this might be
the end for us.

I don't care about that,
my love.

As long as I'm
at your side in battle.

Together.

- -[sighs]
- -[EXEDORE] It's not over yet!

There might still be a way!

- -Huh?
- -Explain!

So far, this vessel of yours has
proven itself indestructible.

I'm not sure how, but there
must be a way to win!

[siren blaring]

[RADIO ANNOUNCER]
And at this very moment,

all of Earth's defense reserves

are being mounted and put
on a 24-hour emergency status.

Any member of
the emergency defense reserve

who has not already
reported for duty,

please do so immediately.

[MAN on PA]
Our sensors are still picking up

extremely high energy levels

from sectors four through twelve
of enemy occupied space.

This could be
the displacement caused

by Hyperspace Re-fold activity.

However, we're still trying
to get an accurate measurement

of its magnitude.

It doesn't look so good.

Ah. Admiral?

Lisa, dear!
I'll talk to you later.

[ADMIRAL HAYES]
Well, what is it? Huh?

[LISA] Father, what's going
to happen to the ship?

It'll be destroyed.

We want to use it to draw
their fire away from the Earth

and the rest of our forces,
sort of a decoy.

[LISA]
No, you can't!

I'm sorry, Lisa,
there's no other choice.

Father, may I ask
a personal favor?

What is it?

I want you to send me back
to the battlefortress.

No, that's completely
out of the question.

My place is with those

whom I've fought alongside
for so long.

Don't you understand?

Father, you've gotta
let me go back up.

You're serious about this?

Yes. Believe me.

I'm sorry, but--

But you won't.

I can't permit it.

I cannot allow my only daughter
to sacrifice her life

in a... a foolish attempt
at heroism!

- -Can't you understand that?
- -l am an officer.

- -Of course!
- -Then reassign me! Please!

Listen to me.

Even though I'm your father,
I promise you,

if you try to leave, I'll
have you thrown in the brig!

[LISA sobbing]

[BREETAI]
What now, Azonia?

Well... there are
very few options,

and Dolza will probably
exterminate us

now that we've been exposed
to the Micronians.

I will stay and face the fleet.

It will be a great honor to go
with you into battle, Commander.

Commendable.
May you win every fight.

And you too... Breetai.

Khyron. Your plan?

You know my answer.
The odds are too great.

Why fight if you
can't win, Breetai.

As I expected, Khyron.

I wasn't depending
on you anyway.

You will be destroyed!

[KHYRON]
All right, let's go!

What coordinates?

Any place else
in the universe but here!

- -Didn't you hear me?
- -But, sir--

What is it?

- -We can't run!
- -You think not? Watch then!

[BREETAI] Hear my thoughts,
Lord Dolza,

and take a good look
at me while you still can,

for this is the
final battle of Breetai.

[EXEDORE] Assuming
you're too weak to fight,

Dolza will divide his fleet
and attack from all four sides,

sealing off
any avenue of escape.

- -This will be your only chance.
- -[GLOVAL] Our only chance?

That is correct, Commander.
I'll explain.

If you are able to destroy
their lead flagships,

it will throw their
whole fleet into chaos.

Simple military strategy.

Of course. In short, we crush
the head of the snake.

[EXEDORE] With their
attack forces in disarray,

our only chance for survival is

to utilize the combined forces
of the SDF-1

and our battle fleet.

Do you realize
what you're saying?

[EXEDORE] Since Dolza knows
we have already been exposed

to your culture,
there is no option but to fight.

[GLOVAL] I'm glad that we
are fighting on the same side.

Yes, so am I.

Minmei, without your singing,

the alliance between our people
would not have been possible.

Who. Me? Really?

[EXEDORE]
Although I do not profess

to completely understand
you Micronians,

I now realize the importance
of your singing.

It gives you the strength
and courage

to face the enemy
against all odds.

Minmei, will you sing for us
so we may hope for victory?

Please, Miss Minmei.

Of course.

[VANESSA] There are
too many coming through!

Our sensors can't fix
on all of them!

I have to go now.

[MAN on PA]
Main sensors picking up

immeasurable Hyperspace
De-Fold activity.

Battle stations. Repeat.
All personnel, battle stations!

[NARRATOR] As millions
of Zentraedi battleships

continue to de-fold
from hyperspace,

they begin to surround
the Earth in swarms,

waiting for the order
to attack.

You better alert Captain Gloval
of enemy status, Claudia!

Sir, monitor three shows
the enemy's position.

Well, I'm afraid this is it.

[ALL gasp]

Huh?

[BOTH gasp]

[NARRATOR] It's a no-win
situation for everyone.

A stand-off
which could end in disaster

for all of humanity

as well as those on the SDF-1.

[NARRATOR] Our next episode
finds the Earth surrounded by

Dolza's armada of over
four million vessels

sent to destroy the Earth
and the SDF-1.

It's a time
for final reflections

and a last attempt to defeat
the vastly superior forces

of the Zentraedi
by Earth's Robotech defenders.

Be watching for "Force of Arms,"
