00:01It was a golden age for all mankind.
00:04Using the incredible exoskeletons called E-frames,
00:07we had successfully terraformed Venus and Mars
00:10and were poised to move on to the outer planets.
00:17Suddenly, it all ended.
00:18We were pressed into a nightmarish war on a scale previously unimagined.
00:23We were attacked by our own creations, the Neo-Sapiens,
00:27a race of artificially created humans.
00:30Led by Phaeton, they have seized control of Venus, Earth, and Mars.
00:42This is Lieutenant J.T. Marsh, member of the Exofleet,
00:46leader of a small band of E-frame pilots
00:48dedicated to freeing humanity from Neo-Sapien rule.
00:56We are...
00:57The Exosquad.
01:00Last time on Exosquad.
01:02They're launching their fighters.
01:05If we can't destroy the graph shield, the fleet's good as dead.
01:10Yee-haw! The cavalry have arrived!
01:19Activate the graph shield.
01:25The shield is now useless to the Neo-Sapiens!
01:43I hate this blasted waiting.
01:45If I were in command, we'd spend less time making the fleet pretty
01:49and more time making it fight.
01:51Patience, Captain Furlong.
01:53Come on, Marcus.
01:55You know as well as I do that Winfield doesn't have the stomach for a fight.
01:58No, Captain Furlong.
02:00I know that Admiral Winfield is spending more time refitting the fleet
02:04than I find absolutely necessary.
02:07Remember, you can get away with questioning a superior's decisions,
02:12but never his courage.
02:23Come on, what's the hold up?
02:25Where's the rest of those antennas?
02:33You rang?
02:35Building a new home base for the fleet,
02:37and I get stuck with a stunt pilot for an assistant.
02:42I knew you'd be impressed.
02:51But, Admiral, it's been three months since we disabled the Neo's graph shield.
02:55They're bound to have an operational soon.
02:57Then it'll be too late to attack.
02:59Sir, if we don't strike now, we may never be able to liberate Earth.
03:04Gentlemen, if we do attack now, only half ready, we will definitely never be able to liberate Earth.
03:10There won't be any of us or our ships left to liberate anything.
03:14But, Admiral, as you know...
03:16I know the only thing standing between Phaeton and his total subjugation of the human race is this fleet.
03:22Until we get it back to full strength, I'm not committing it to any large-scale engagement.
03:27Is that clear, Captain?
03:30Uh...
03:30Yes, sir.
03:32Good.
03:32Dismissed, gentlemen.
03:35Sir.
03:37Every day we sit here getting ready to attack is another day Phaeton has to prepare to beat us.
03:44We have to act.
03:45Now!
03:47Not while Winfield's running the show.
03:50Yes, that has become very clear.
03:55Furlong, take care of the pre-flight.
03:57I'll be with you in a minute.
04:00Disconnect.
04:03Marsh!
04:07Captain Marcus.
04:08I thought you were skippering the Resolute.
04:10I am.
04:11Came down to IO home base because I have a special mission for Able Squad.
04:16If you're up to it.
04:18Why Able Squad?
04:19Despite our past differences, Lieutenant, I appreciate your skills as a pilot.
04:24And a leader.
04:25This job requires your special abilities.
04:32Phew. Not on my pay.
04:36Rage me, eh, Marcella?
04:38Well, I think I'll just call.
04:40What you got?
04:41All red hearts?
04:42Does that win?
04:44Can't get a break.
04:45That means yes.
04:47You sure you've never played this before?
04:49Quite certain.
04:50A perfect memory is part of my genetic engineering.
04:53Oh, dang.
04:55I could have sworn you were bluffing.
04:57Bluffing?
04:58Trying to scare the others out of the game by betting as though you have excellent cards.
05:02When you don't.
05:05There.
05:06That'll do it.
05:07You were putting too much torque on it.
05:09Ah, Maggie.
05:10Gentilize the hand of woman.
05:12Not if you keep feeding me lines like that.
05:14But I say that to all the officers.
05:18Hey, Weston.
05:19Aren't you supposed to be working on the early warning tower?
05:22Yeah, but I'm on a break.
05:23Why don't you try giving me one?
05:25Pardon my concern, Lieutenant.
05:30Meh, I'm out too.
05:34What you got?
05:36Nothing that matches.
05:38I don't believe it.
05:40You bluffed, Bronski.
05:41Nice move.
05:42Shut up, kid.
05:43Careful, Wolf.
05:45Don't teach Marsala too well or it'll clean us all out.
05:47Squad!
05:48Ten shot!
05:49Stand easy, troopers.
05:50I know you won't believe it, but after all this time we finally got a combat mission.
05:55Listen up!
05:56We've been assigned to take out a new weapons complex the Neos have set up on Mars.
06:00It's near Olympus Mons.
06:03Olympus Mons?
06:04We're going anywhere.
06:05A new weapons complex?
06:06On Mars?
06:07Nothing was said about that at this morning's intelligence briefing.
06:10Yeah, well, according to Captain Marcus, unmanned probes just picked it up.
06:15Now this is all top secret.
06:16No one outside this room is to know.
06:17If we-
06:18When we pull off this raid, it'll give a boost to Terrans everywhere.
06:23But if something should go wrong, it would devastate morale.
06:27Hey, what can go wrong when you've got Takagi and Bronski, the dynamic duo?
06:31Sorry, Kaz.
06:32You and Maggie are both doing high-profile work here.
06:35Your absence would be noticed. You'd be missed.
06:37I wouldn't miss him.
06:39I'm not going?
06:40Not this time.
06:41But don't worry.
06:42There'll be more than enough fighting left to go around.
06:46Man, what is this? They get to go, but I have to stay and play Delivery Boy for you?
06:51It's not fair!
06:52Yeah, especially to me.
06:57Check everything. Then check it again.
07:00We're not getting any second chances on this run.
07:04Nothing like a little e-frame action to work up an appetite.
07:13It is a Terran craft.
07:15But why just one?
07:16That is suicide.
07:21Prepare to launch e-frames. 30 seconds and counting.
07:25Cyberjack, on.
07:27Marsh to pilot. What's going on?
07:29You're supposed to take us down to 10,000 feet.
07:32Sorry, Lieutenant. Company's coming.
07:33Three Y-Wings. I'll be in high orbit waiting for your pickup call.
07:37You've got 20 seconds.
07:39Okay, people, the surprise is blown, but we're still going to the party.
07:43Move!
07:45Cyberlink on.
07:4615 seconds, folks.
07:56Five seconds.
07:57Six seconds.
08:02Stick close and stay alert, people.
08:17Try to avoid engagement and get to the surface rendezvous point in one piece.
08:24Should've told that to the Leos.
08:2711 O'clock.
08:2811 O'clock.
08:40Starburst now!
09:09One down.
09:10Taurus, report.
09:12Two hits.
09:14Damage moderate.
09:15Stabilizer control sticking.
09:17Going in for a hard landing.
09:21I'll cover you, Sarge.
09:23Perhaps not.
09:28We have a problem, Lieutenant.
09:34Above us, we can't shake them.
09:36Hang on, I'm on the way.
09:40Hey, boss, don't sweat it.
09:43I'll get them.
09:54Nothing like making sure.
09:59Third Y-Wing breaking off attack.
10:02JT, you want me to chase him?
10:04Negative.
10:05We've got a mission.
10:06The sooner we get to it, the sooner we go home.
10:14Captain Marcus, they all made it.
10:16They're heading for the surface.
10:18Good.
10:18Return here to the repair base and wait for my instructions.
10:22But, sir...
10:22Lieutenant, do as I say!
10:24And keep your mouth shut.
10:26This mission must remain a secret at all costs.
10:34Exosquad will be back in a moment.
10:37Now, back to Exosquad.
10:41I expect performance, Typhonus.
10:44Not excuses.
10:45Of course, Phaeton.
10:47But it appeared to be only a single lost Terran ship.
10:50The notion that a lone Terran squad would attack a planet of five million Neo-Sapiens is irrational.
10:56So, he's trying to understand Terrans.
11:00That can be fatally irrational.
11:03When dealing with humans, we must prepare for every eventuality.
11:08We will do so, Phaeton.
11:10You can rest assured.
11:11Destiny is never assured.
11:13It must be won.
11:14And until we fulfill our Neo-Sapien destiny, I can never rest.
11:21Now find the Terrans and destroy them.
11:34Valp, slow. Stay close.
11:39Hold it.
11:48Now they won't.
11:50Okay, back to the next canyon.
11:54Look alive.
11:56Just like 50 years ago.
11:59Marsala, are you alright?
12:01Whatever happens, I must remember my vows to the fleet.
12:05And to others.
12:14Captain, you wanted to talk to me about the repair schedule?
12:17No.
12:18About Winfield.
12:20You know how I feel.
12:21His indecision is a danger to all of us.
12:23I feel the same way, Furlong.
12:26The question is, what shall we do about it?
12:31We must proceed with caution.
12:33Often these canyons lead to a dead end.
12:35Speaking of dead ends, close ranks, Bronski.
12:39Coming, Mother.
12:45Olympus Mons.
12:46I knew we'd be back.
12:49The Martian Mount Olympus.
12:52At over 30 kilometers high, the largest mountain in the solar system.
13:16The last battle.
13:19Marsala, I know how it feels to return home under these circumstances.
13:24No.
13:24Not these circumstances, Lieutenant.
13:31Lieutenant.
13:43I knew we were trying to cut those mountains out, but he won't be able to get him out onES.
13:44It's me, not in the evening.
13:44Hah!
13:48voltar to the station.
13:52That was not just about the same.
13:5479 sakura Natal.
13:54I never thought it was near people's neighbor.
13:55I wonder what they felt like needed, once a cube, mattressed to a cube.
13:57Tour A farm made ali for the heroic paz.
13:57The car was without force of the proximal eye that he really felt like alcohol.
13:58Well, that was my turn
13:58I never found them anything,
13:59I just did a step in the queue.
14:07I don't know.
14:30What in blazes is this place?
14:32Well, one thing's for sure. It's no weapons complex.
14:36You know, don't you? If you don't tell them, I will.
14:40They are vats of the chemical solution used in the Neo-Sapien brood process.
14:44So there has to be a large brooding center nearby. Larger than anything anyone's ever seen.
14:50Why do you say that?
14:51There's enough material right here to create billions of Neos.
14:55But why?
14:56Yeah, I don't get it. They've already got more troops than we do.
15:00Who says they're going to be troops?
15:02Maybe they're going to be workers.
15:04With that many of them, they won't need to keep humans around at all.
15:11Exosquad will be back in a moment.
15:14Now, back to Exosquad.
15:23Okay, people. I want this place to go up in five minutes. Set your timers accordingly.
15:31Marsala?
15:34I have taken an oath. It must be done.
15:37And then I'm out.
15:42Come here.
15:54Men!
15:58Men!
15:59Men!
16:00Men!
16:01Men!
16:01Men!
16:05Men!
16:15Reinforce the brood center immediately.
16:17We have Terran infiltrators.
17:05JT, look out!
17:06Let's go!
17:48Punch it, Torres!
17:55Hang on!
18:08Terrans, they've destroyed storehouse 17!
18:11Neo E-frames!
18:23Yo!
18:41Somebody cover me!
18:54Able squadron leader to jump ship.
18:56We are ready for pickup, Commander.
18:58Come in, Sutton!
19:07Alec, I can't reach the pickup ship.
19:09Channel me through to base.
19:16Long-wage transmission ready.
19:18Target exo-carrier resolute.
19:29Able squadron to resolute.
19:31Mayday!
19:32Do you read?
19:33Mayday!
19:33Something is very wrong here.
19:36I didn't order Able Squad to Mars or anywhere else.
19:39I did.
19:41What in blazes is going on here, Marcus?
19:44What is this?
19:47It better not be what it looks like.
19:49It's exactly what it looks like, Admiral.
19:52I have no choice but to relieve you of command.
19:56Relieve?
19:56I don't care what you call it, Captain Marcus.
19:59It's still mutiny.
20:01Admiral, you've lost the will to fight.
20:03I haven't.
20:04I've taken command for the good of humankind.
20:07You blind fool.
20:10Take him to the brig.
20:13This way, Admiral.
20:15Have the rest of our men secure the base.
20:24Come on, Kaz.
20:26Get the lead out.
20:30Lieutenant, I don't even want to be here.
20:32Don't you ever lighten up?
20:33Never.
20:34Not even in zero gravity.
20:36Aw, come on, Weston.
20:37We're six hours over our shift already.
20:39Why not?
20:40I guess even Wiseacre Kid's gotta eat.
20:43Thanks, Mags.
20:44Uh, Lieutenant, say, why don't you go on ahead?
20:47I'm gonna find Marcus and see if he's hurt from the squad.
20:50I am never gonna see any real action.
20:58Keep down.
20:59What's going on?
21:01Marcus has taken command.
21:02He took out Winfield?
21:05Surrender your weapons.
21:06Give up now and you can return to duty under the new command.
21:10Bad chance!
21:11Drop it.
21:21Sector 1 is secured, Captain.
21:23Good.
21:24Very good.
21:25The last of Winfield's men have been captured.
21:29Good work, Captain.
21:31Prepare the fleet for combat.
21:33At all 500, we fly for Earth.
21:38Exosquad will be back in a moment.
21:425.
21:445.
