00:03In the near future, Doc Terror and his cyborg companion, Hacker, unleash their forces to conquer Earth.
00:11Only one force can stop this evil, a handful of brave men.
00:16In specially created exo-brains, they can be transported anywhere.
00:21To fuse with incredible assault weapon systems, being down from the space station Sky Vault.
00:27Becoming man and machine, power extreme.
00:33Max Ray, brilliant sea operations commander.
00:40Jake Rockwell, rugged land operations specialist.
00:46Ace McLeod, daring air operations expert.
00:49What?
00:53Whatever the challenge...
00:55They are ready!
00:57The Centurions!
00:58Hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry!
01:20Sun Storm!
01:22Desert One calling Sky Vault!
01:24Are you reading me?
01:26This is Sky Vault.
01:27You're coming in fine. What's up?
01:30That's what's up.
01:33I don't get it.
01:34The computer gave us no indication of a storm in your area.
01:37Sorry to mess up your computations, but I need a detour.
01:41It looks nasty.
01:42Okay, turn south by west.
01:44There's a ravine. The storm will miss you.
01:55If I didn't know better, I'd swear this storm changed direction just to intercept us. That's crazy, of course.
02:02By the beard of the prophet. What is that thing?
02:11I don't know.
02:12Wasn't Ace supposed to meet us a half hour ago?
02:14You know Ace. All work and no play.
02:20Max here.
02:21There's trouble. I'll meet you in exactly 20 minutes.
02:25The computer has already sent the destination coordinates to Centurion Headquarters.
02:30Don't worry, Lucy. The computer has everything under control.
02:36Never fear. The old jet jockey's here.
02:40Hey!
02:41Who pulled the plug?
02:44Sorry, Ace. Emergency. We need it back at Headquarters.
02:49Don't go away, girls. Old Ace will be right back.
02:55You know what the emergency is?
02:57Nope. Crystal said she'd fill us in when we rendezvous.
03:00Rendezvous where?
03:02The lady wants to surprise us.
03:09Are you sure this is the place?
03:12Be it ever so humble,
03:15there's no place like the desert for home.
03:18Especially if you're a scorpion.
03:31Is Shadow hurt?
03:33Only his pride.
03:42There's nothing here.
03:43I know.
03:44But this is the last place the caravan was before it vanished.
03:49Doesn't make sense. Where could it have gone?
03:53That's what you're here to find out.
04:20The prince is expecting us.
04:27Welcome to my humble home, Centurions.
04:32A guy could get to like it around here.
04:35He sure could.
04:40There's time for sightseeing later,
04:42after we've found the missing pipeline caravans.
04:45In the meantime, Crystal promised the prince
04:47you and Jake would demonstrate some aerial defense techniques.
04:52Don't worry, Jake.
04:53I'll try not to show you up too badly.
04:57We'll see who shows up who.
05:09Watch it, Jake. Things are about to get hot.
05:17That ought to keep it cool.
05:23Kid stuff. Watch the master in action.
05:28I am impressed.
05:30A childish exhibition.
05:32What would they do in a real battle?
05:34Crystal Kane, Max Ray,
05:36permit me to introduce General Amid,
05:39head of my country's armed forces.
05:41Forgive my bluntness,
05:43but I have told the prince
05:44that the Centurions are not needed here.
05:47Max!
05:53Those dummy strafers are playing for real!
05:59Gotcha!
06:02The dummy strafers must have been misprogrammed.
06:05It is fortunate no one was injured.
06:07Yes. Fortunate.
06:12You weren't too bad today, Jake.
06:14I'll give you a few lessons when we get back to Centrum and...
06:18Lessons?
06:19If I hadn't stopped those last two strafers,
06:21you'd have had your wings clipped for sure.
06:24You both did just fine.
06:27I hope those two keep their mind on business.
06:30Uh, Crystal, did you do what I asked?
06:32I suggested General Amid give me a tour of the power station,
06:36in the moonlight.
06:37But why?
06:38I don't trust the general.
06:40That's why I want you to keep him occupied while I check his office.
06:44Lucy can help me.
06:58It's incredible!
07:00This geothermal power station will provide enough energy to reclaim the desert,
07:04turning it into a garden of paradise.
07:06All that energy.
07:08I wonder what Doc Terror would do to get control of it.
07:18Shh!
07:30Got it!
07:32What have we here?
07:34What have we here?
07:35This is a map of the geothermal pipeline.
07:38This is a map of the geothermal pipeline.
07:48Curiosity killed the cat.
07:50Make certain it does the same for us and Julia.
07:53Why aren't we here?
08:01Unpleasant nightmares, Centurion.
08:19You won't need this where you're going.
08:35The Centurions will continue after these messages.
08:41We now return to The Centurions.
09:02I thought bad dreams went away when you woke up.
09:23Thanks Lucy, I think.
09:33Max Raid is Sky Vault, Beam Down Cruiser, fast.
09:36Certainly, commencing Beam Down now.
09:48Power Extreme!
10:01Sorry to spoil your snack.
10:08You can say that again.
10:10Someone around here doesn't like us.
10:12I only hope Crystal is alright.
10:17When will the station be operational, General?
10:20Very soon, we hope.
10:22I'd like to see your control center.
10:24I am sorry, but you must excuse me for a moment.
10:34Just enough time to see what's really going on here.
10:44This is Amid.
10:46The Centurions suspect something is wrong.
10:50Watch the girl.
10:51She may have to vanish like the others.
10:56Interesting.
10:57According to this, power output is at a maximum now.
11:01But where is it going?
11:03Where, I am afraid, lovely lady.
11:06You are about to find out.
11:09Another time, perhaps?
11:16I hate to be a gate crasher, but...
11:22I wish I knew what happened to Crystal and Max.
11:26Relax.
11:27They said they'd meet us here.
11:29It's about time.
11:31Ace here.
11:31This is Crystal.
11:33I need support.
11:36Ace McCloud to Sky Vault.
11:39Beam Jake and me to Crystal's coordinates.
11:41And send Sky Knight and Hornet.
11:44Now!
11:55Power extreme!
12:26You take the Strapers, and I'll eliminate the ground boards.
12:29And we'll see who finishes first.
12:50Freeze a crowd, so I'll let you two fight it out.
13:01I guess you must be the winner.
13:06Better make that loser.
13:13He's still the champ.
13:15Who's the champ?
13:19I... Hey!
13:20Where's Chris?
13:22There she is.
13:24And she's okay.
13:26I wish she were.
13:29What is it?
13:39Whatever it is, it's got its eye on my girl.
13:42So let's fly!
13:52The Centurions will continue after these messages.
13:59We now return to...
14:01The Centurions.
14:09The Centurions.
14:09It missed her.
14:10Crystal's okay.
14:13No.
14:14It's pulling her under.
14:16Take the Sky Vault.
14:18Replace Hornet with Wild Weasel.
14:22Power extreme!
14:24Dream!
14:39Max! It got Crystal!
14:41What got Crystal?
14:43I... I don't know!
14:52They're gone!
14:54Gone!
14:55Crystal has to be there!
14:56Look again!
14:57I've probed the entire area with my target sensor.
15:01She's vanished!
15:04Whatever Crystal discovered here is the only clue we've got to finding her.
15:07It won't be easy getting inside.
15:11I copied the map I found in General Omid's room.
15:13According to that, there's an unfinished pipeline tunnel right underneath our feet.
15:18Which is how we're getting inside.
15:21Max to Sky Vault.
15:22Ready to beam.
15:24I already relayed the destination coordinates to the computer.
15:32Now let's follow this pipeline and hope we find Crystal.
15:42We must prepare a proper welcome for our company.
15:47Wouldn't you say so, my dear?
15:50Do your worst.
15:51But you won't beat the Centurions with these little pets of General Omid's.
15:56Oh, I have something much bigger in mind.
16:00Something you've already had the pleasure of meeting.
16:04Hacker and I are returning to Dominion.
16:06Now that the geothermal energy has been diverted to my optic base,
16:10you can destroy the power station.
16:13And the Centurions.
16:20What in blazes was that?
16:22It came from the direction of the power station.
16:24You two find out what's happening.
16:26I'll continue into the tunnel.
16:28Roger, Max.
16:38Don't those babies ever give up?
16:40Looks like Terror is sending in the full barrage.
16:43This calls for some heavy response.
16:46Sky Vault. Beam Sky Vault.
16:47You're right.
16:48And detonator.
16:53Power.
16:54Extreme.
17:20Hope you enjoy good music.
17:22And that's the name of that tune.
17:41Now let's cool down this fire.
17:54How about a game of hide-and-seek?
17:57Tag, you're it!
18:03Whoa, you don't want to play anymore?
18:08Crystal, are you okay?
18:10I'm fine now that you're here.
18:15Max, look out!
18:26The laser blast is starting a cave-in!
18:28As much as you deserve it, I can't leave you in there.
18:34Good shooting, chum.
18:36You weren't so bad yourselves.
18:39You two work well together.
18:40Remember that.
18:41There's nowhere to run.
18:45Fools!
18:46I'm not the one who has to run!
18:49It's back!
18:51Destroy them all!
18:58Where'd he go?
19:04That thing plays rough.
19:08We'll see who's the toughest kid on the block.
19:17Brute Force isn't going to stop that thing.
19:19We've got to find its vulnerable spot.
19:22There is no vulnerability.
19:25My pet cannot be stopped by your puny weapons.
19:31Max, it'll bury Jake and Ace if we don't do something.
19:35Calling Sky Vault. Emergency.
19:38Recall assault weapon systems.
19:40End their Centurions.
19:49Thanks for the lift, old buddy.
19:51Don't mention it.
19:53You're not throwing in the towel.
19:55That thing hasn't beaten us yet.
20:03Sky Vault.
20:04Beam me to coordinates 11, 7, 9.
20:16I can't begin to repay you, Centurions.
20:19Amid is in jail.
20:21The kidnapped caravan men have been safely returned.
20:24And with the geothermal power going where it belongs,
20:27soon your desert will be a garden.
20:30That was sure some smart thinking, Max.
20:32Using your exa-frame to beam that critter to...
20:36Hey, where did you beam him?
20:38Somewhere in the Arctic.
20:40Where I hope he'll cause a lot of trouble
20:42for some old friends of ours.
20:52Some day, Centurions.
20:56Some day.
21:01The Centurions will continue after these messages.
21:32The CNY snap will keep us down.
