00:00In the near future, Doc Terror and his cyborg companion, Hacker,
00:05unleash their forces to conquer Earth.
00:08Only one force can stop this evil.
00:11A handful of brave men.
00:13In specially created exo-frames, they can be transported anywhere.
00:18To fuse with incredible assault weapon systems,
00:21beamed down from the space station Sky Vault.
00:25Becoming man and machine, power extreme.
00:30Max Ray, brilliant sea operations commander.
00:37Jake Rockwell, rugged land operations specialist.
00:43Ace McLeod, daring air operations expert.
00:51Whatever the challenge, they are ready.
00:54The Centurions!
01:11Everybody stay calm and nobody gets hurt.
01:15You'll never get away with this.
01:18Wanna bet we're working for Doc Terror, and he's got it all figured out?
01:24I got them in my sights, Crystal.
01:27Why don't I put a galactic missile across the right wing,
01:30just to let them know they got company?
01:33Sounds good to me, McLeod.
01:36Galactic missile locked on target.
01:38Fire!
01:46What's going on?
01:49Oh, no.
01:51It's a Centurion.
01:53Hi, guys.
01:54Party time's over.
01:56You wanna land that metal bird right now,
01:58or would you boys rather I came in and got you personally?
02:11Imbeciles, cowards.
02:13They had victory in their grasp,
02:15but they threw it away.
02:17They surrendered.
02:19And why?
02:20Because they were afraid of Ace McLeod.
02:23You should have let me try the hijack, Doc,
02:27or one of the traumatizers.
02:28We wouldn't have let you down.
02:31I know that, Hacker.
02:33But spaceport security is so tight,
02:36I couldn't use cyborgs or robots for this plan.
02:40I had to depend on a human team.
02:43And you see the result?
02:45Utter, total, failure.
02:47I blame you for this, darling daughter.
02:54Me?
02:55You picked a team, Amber.
02:58It was your operation.
03:00But people aren't robots, Father.
03:03You can't always predict how they'll react.
03:07Precisely.
03:08And that, in a nutshell,
03:10is the problem with this sorry planet.
03:13And how do we solve the problem?
03:16Simple.
03:17We get rid of the people
03:19and start over with robots.
03:30Trouble, Lucy.
03:31That's a May Day alert from upstate New York,
03:33near Niagara Falls.
03:35Rex Charger is on a skiing holiday in the area.
03:38Skyball to Rex Charger.
03:40Hi, Chris.
03:41What's up?
03:43Rex.
03:44You'll have to talk louder.
03:46It's a little windy out here.
03:53Skybolt's computer picked up a distress signal, Rex.
03:59From a small, one-man aircraft
04:01pursued by three large ones.
04:03They're headed right towards you.
04:09Why didn't you say so?
04:10Hit me with a Gatlingard assault weapon system.
04:16Computer, assemble Gatlingard.
04:22Energize now.
04:23Now.
04:25Power of that stream.
04:36What's the May Day's position now, Crystal?
04:38Two o'clock high, 15 miles north, approaching at 800 miles per hour.
04:45Computer make an ID match yet?
04:49Coming in now, Rex.
04:51Oh, no!
04:53Rex, those three big planes following the little plane aren't planes at all.
04:58Two of them are Docs, Carers, Doom-Bron.
05:07Why am I not surprised?
05:16A Centurion.
05:18Stripers, take care of him.
05:21I'll handle our target.
05:28Two drones on my tail.
05:32My magnetic imploder missile should handle them.
05:45Scratch two dumb drones.
05:48Uh-oh.
05:50Hackers hit the May Day ship.
05:52He's going in to finish it off.
05:54Sorry, pal.
05:55Can't let you do that.
05:57Solar flare missile armed and locked on target.
06:00Fire!
06:06I can't see!
06:19Ah, shut up.
06:25That ship's falling out of control.
06:27Another second, it'll hit the falls.
06:29Unless I push it to safety first.
06:32Firing gravity in the gator missile.
06:44Now, let's see whose life we just saved.
06:53Amber, Doc Terra's daughter?
06:58Well, let's get this straight.
07:01Your dad's gone nuts.
07:03He's decided to wipe out the human race so he can start over with robots.
07:07And since you don't think this is such a hot idea, you want to throw in with us against your
07:13own father.
07:13And you expect us to believe that?
07:16And you expect us to believe that?
07:17Tell us the truth, Amber.
07:19What are you really up to?
07:21Father sent Hacker and two drones to stop me.
07:24Was that a trick?
07:25Maybe if you told us what Doc Terra's planning, exactly.
07:29All I know is he bought a Florida power company and he's planning to capture an experimental weather station in
07:36the Caribbean.
07:36How those two things connect, I don't know.
07:39But I do know this.
07:40If you won't believe me, then that's just too bad.
07:46Too bad for me, and too bad for you.
07:58That's to show you what I could have done.
08:02Now, will you trust me?
08:04I hate to be the one to say it, guys.
08:07I'm convinced.
08:08Me too, but if Amber's telling the truth,
08:11Doc Terra is planning his biggest crime yet,
08:15the extermination of the human race.
08:18You said Terra's plan involves a Florida power plant
08:21and an experimental weather station in the Caribbean?
08:24Daddy owns the power plant,
08:26and he's planning to attack the weather station.
08:29How or why, I don't know.
08:32Two of you should head off my father in the Caribbean.
08:35The others come with me to the power plant.
08:38Pushy, isn't she?
08:40But beautiful.
08:42Hey, fella, I think that's my lad.
08:54So that's what your matter transmission beam feels like.
08:57Tingly.
08:58Try beaming without that exo-frame harness,
09:01and you'll really tingle.
09:04Before I left Dominion,
09:06I studied the power plant's blueprints.
09:10There's an unguarded fence near the waste disposal unit.
09:13Let me give you a hand.
09:15Here, let me help you.
09:19Who says chivalry is dead?
09:30There's the weather station.
09:32And there's an unexpected complication.
09:35If Terra's drones attack,
09:38those tourists will be right in the line of fire.
09:40Forget the if, old buddy.
09:42Here they come now.
09:45Crystal, they must fathom fan and sky vault.
09:49ASAP.
09:50On their way.
09:52Power extreme!
10:07You drones ever see the kind of damage a pulse cannon can do?
10:11It's not a pretty sight.
10:15Is it?
10:21Looks like you seaboards mean business.
10:25Good.
10:26So do I.
10:30So do I.
10:50Terror's drones are on the run, Crystal.
10:54But so far,
10:55we haven't seen Dark Terror or Hacker anywhere.
11:02If this operation is as important to Dark Terror as Ember says,
11:06he's got to be here somewhere.
11:28Alarm system.
11:29I can crack these codes in my sleep.
11:44Not good.
11:45She saw blueprints of this place.
11:47So why didn't she know about that alarm?
11:50You think she's setting us up?
11:56You've got to admire, Doc.
11:58Everybody talks about the weather, but Doc's going to do something about it.
12:05See those satellites up there?
12:07They're part of a new weather-making system.
12:10They're controlled by that weather station in the Caribbean.
12:14All Doc needs is energy from this power plant so he can radio and override command to all the satellites
12:22at once.
12:22And those satellites will change weather all over the world.
12:35And when it's finished, Doc and me are going to own the world.
12:43Doc says I can have Australia.
13:13They're going to be so much times.
13:13A pilot that way.
13:15You've got to take a special battle cry.
13:22Let's go.
13:49Time to call in our assault weapon systems.
13:53Right.
13:54Amber, you better let us handle.
13:58Rex, it's a trap.
14:00Amber, let us into it.
14:14Sky Vault calling Jake Rockwell.
14:30Jake, Rex, answer me, please.
14:36Amber, sure played us for suckas.
14:41Let us into a trap.
14:50Amber?
14:58Crystal, this is Amber.
15:01Amber?
15:02How did you get Jake's wrist comm?
15:04Hacker caught them.
15:06And I only slipped the neck by dumb luck.
15:09I heard a noise.
15:10Went off to check it out.
15:11And when I got back, the battle was over.
15:12But that doesn't matter.
15:14Beam the suits to these coordinates before...
15:16Before what?
15:18Before I boshed you?
15:24Let her go, Hacker.
15:26What are you gonna do about it, Centurion?
15:29Hurt my feelings with a nasty look?
15:35Power!
15:37Extreme!
15:38Freeze!
15:39Okay, Hacker.
15:41You had your fun.
15:42Now it's our turn.
15:59Ah-ha, you missed.
16:04But we've got to shut this plant down pronto.
16:10Oh, that energy started a chain reaction.
16:12The storm is spreading worldwide.
16:17The storm is centered over the Caribbean.
16:20Then that's where we'll stop it.
16:22At the eye of the storm.
16:28Storms are cleansing.
16:30They wash away the rubbish and dirt.
16:32And leave a clean world behind.
16:38You can't win terror.
16:41Who on earth can't stop me?
16:46We can, Father.
16:50Amber.
16:51So you side with my enemies after all.
17:06This is it, Crystal.
17:07Send Gatling guard.
17:09And while you're at it, hit me with detonator.
17:13Power!
17:14Extreme!
17:15Power!
17:17Extreme!
17:23Splicer missiles!
17:24Fire!
17:30What did you do?
17:33Daddy!
17:34Yo, Rockwell!
17:36We could use some help here.
17:40Freeze ray blaster should do it.
17:47How far to the eye of the storm, Crystal?
17:53You're almost there, Rex. Hurry.
17:56Computer calculates the storm has to be broken in the next 30 seconds,
18:01or it'll be unstoppable.
18:03My energy scanner confirms the computer's prediction, Crystal.
18:08There's enough power in that storm center to power half a continent.
18:16Magnetic imploder locked in firing position.
18:19I'd better make it count.
18:21Fire!
18:44Rex, you don't think he, uh...
18:49Look!
18:53Yee-hee-yahoo!
18:56Yee-hee-yahoo!
19:04Great work, buddy.
19:07Can I offer my own congratulations?
19:11Amber, we owe you one.
19:13How's your father?
19:15He'll be fine, once I've gotten him back to Dominion.
19:18Uh-uh, Amber. Doc's headed for jail.
19:22I'm really sorry about this.
19:24But after all, he is my father.
19:28I...
19:36I should be angry, but I'm not.
19:39Amber did what she had to do.
19:41Yeah, but did she have to free Hacker, too?
19:44Now they're all on the loose.
19:46What's to stop Doc from trying this stunt again?
19:49Maybe he's learned a lesson, Ace.
19:51After all, we stopped Doc's plan.
20:00Not robots, not machines.
20:02We did it.
20:03We human beings.
20:04For all our imperfections,
20:06when we set our minds to a goal,
20:08we human beings can accomplish anything.
20:24Easy, boy.
20:25It's only a storm.
20:27There's enough electricity in one bolt of lightning
20:29to supply a small city for a week.
20:33Lightning happens because of the difference
20:36between positively charged atoms at the top of the cloud
20:39and negative ones at the bottom.
20:41In slow motion, it would look like this.
20:44First, the leader stroke moves out of the cloud
20:47toward the ground.
20:48When it gets close enough,
20:50it attracts streamers from the negatively grounded Earth.
20:53Where the two meet,
20:55the big flash travels up the leader's path to the cloud.
21:00The sudden release of all that power
21:02heats up the air around it, expanding it.
21:06This sets off a shockwave we hear as thunder.
21:10Whoa!
21:11Whoa!
21:12Whoa!
21:13Whoa!
21:17Whoa!
21:22Whoa!
21:25Whoa!rics
