03:18You saved his life.
03:20Simbaka respects you as a fighter.
03:22I've invited Simbaka to a demonstration tomorrow of Professor Algernon's new weapons.
03:28Talk to Simbaka after the demonstration.
03:31Get him to agree he needs our help.
03:33I'll do my best.
03:34I'll do my best, Admiral.
03:35Simbaka grows closer to the exo-fleet.
03:38He's forgotten he's a pirate.
03:40Times have changed, Baka.
03:42We must work with the exo-fleet if we are to survive.
03:44Is that why Simbaka sent you into battle unprepared?
03:48How many young pirates did we lose against the fusion cannon on Sinope?
03:53Convenient for Simbaka that all who might challenge him for leadership one day are gone, except you.
04:06How long do you think Simbaka will let you live unless you get rid of him first?
04:40Simbaka has changed, Baka has changed, Baka has changed.
04:42I've been able to improve our E-frame technology.
04:45For example, I was able to adapt the cloaking properties of dark matter to one of our large E-frames.
04:52Phaeton won't be able to stop what he can't see.
04:55A definite advantage.
04:56If you'll get into your vehicles, we'll proceed.
05:00It'll be a pleasure, Professor.
05:05Let's frame up.
05:06I've constructed some remote control drones to make the demonstration more realistic.
05:11They'll be fighting with weapons at half-strength.
05:19Trooper Takagi's exo-wing has my most advanced defense system.
05:25A holographic decoy system.
05:34Alright!
05:36Now I'm the two best pilots in the exo-fleet.
05:39Yes, quite.
05:41I've armed Intelligence Officer Deleon with a Mega Burst jamming device, which can disrupt the electronic circuitry of any opponent
05:49within range.
05:55Good going, Deleon!
05:59Uh-oh!
06:01I've increased Trooper Bronski's defensive firepower with a Multiple Warhead Plasma Grenade Launcher.
06:20Man, I'm ready to kick some Neo-Butt!
06:23I've equipped Trooper Weston Z-frame with a weapon I call Chain Lightning.
06:45I've improved the hydraulics of Sergeant Torres' e-frame to equip her with a powerful ram.
07:11Lieutenant Marsh's E-frame is equipped with the most formidable defense weapon.
07:32The solar flare.
07:37Very impressive, Professor.
07:39With a fully equipped laboratory, I could have done better.
07:43But under these conditions, I must admit I am rather pleased.
07:51You're too modest, Professor.
07:55Look out!
08:05That's no drone, man!
08:07Get it!
08:16We'll take care of Zimbabwe. Help J.T. I want that assassin caught.
08:31I've got a scan lock. He's heading for Port Chaos.
08:42Now, put out.
08:50Come on.
09:01Now, come on.
09:03Well, off the
09:22Oh, blaster shock causes degenerative neural overload.
09:26It's a miracle he's lived this long.
09:28Zimbaka's got to pull through.
09:33I wouldn't count on it, Admiral.
09:36If Zimbaka does not survive, the alliance with the exo-fleet ends with him.
09:49I'm on him. Get a scan lock on my transponder.
09:52Affirmative, JT. We're closing on your position. Stay with him.
10:04Easier said than done, De Leon. Well, maybe this will slow him down.
10:25Okay, traitor. Game's up. Surrender or I fire.
10:29You know we pirates never surrender, Marsh.
10:35Hollis?
10:40Stay out of my way, Marsh. I don't want to hurt you.
10:53Hollis!
11:00Thanks, Maggie. I was starting to get claustrophobic.
11:04No problem, JT. Nobody ever invented a handier tool than a crowbar.
11:09Get my E-frame operational, Mags.
11:12Marsala, you stay with her. The rest of us will fan out and search for Hollis on foot.
11:16Shouldn't we let the pirates find Hollis? They will resent our intrusion.
11:20We have to. We don't know which pirates we can trust. Hollis might be a part of a larger conspiracy.
11:25And if he acted on his own, I want to know why.
11:28All right, let's go. And remember, this is the pirates' planet. So be careful.
11:38I will win this one.
11:40You told me my only hope was to get some baka before he got me. Well, I did it. Now
11:46you've got to help me.
11:47I'm your friend, Hollis. I won't say a word. Nobody will know it was you.
11:53Marsh knows. He followed me to Port Chaos. His squad's probably with him and looking for me right now.
11:59You need more help than I can give you.
12:03Tell you what. I'll help you contact the renegade clans. They hated Zimbaka and the Alliance. They'll never turn you
12:13in.
12:13Thanks, baka. You're the only friend I have.
12:26You always take me to the nicest places.
12:31I don't serve exo-fleet scum.
12:35I'm looking for someone named Hollis.
12:42Guess nobody's heard of him.
12:44What about you?
12:45This is all you get from me!
12:50Listen, you!
12:53Stay frosty, Kaz. Let's get out of here.
12:59Why'd you let him get away with that?
13:00Hey, look. Exo-fleet spent a fortune teaching you how to fight, learning how to walk away from a fight.
13:06Well, that's something you've got to pick up on your own.
13:12No sign of Hollis, JT.
13:14It'd take an army of bloodhounds to dig him out of this rat hole.
13:17We'll have to widen the search area.
13:20Marshal, I've been looking for you.
13:22Why?
13:23Because I know you're looking for Hollis.
13:27Oh yeah? How'd you know that?
13:29Hollis told me.
13:30Where is he?
13:31Hiding with the renegades.
13:33I sent him there. I had to.
13:36We're friends.
13:37You're a real piece of work, Barka.
13:39What about your oath of loyalty to Zimbaka?
13:42I'll still honor it.
13:43I'll help you capture Hollis.
13:45I have tried to understand Terrans for years, but I will never understand the pirates.
13:51How can we trust him? He's already betrayed Zimbaka and Hollis.
13:55It's not easy to be an honorable man.
13:59The important thing is, I'll get you into the renegade stronghold.
14:04On one condition.
14:06Yeah?
14:07What condition?
14:08You must never tell anyone I helped you.
14:11If the renegades found out, I'd be done for.
14:16Okay. I'll play it your way.
14:18Provided you get us in.
14:21There's a gorge 50 kilometers from your base.
14:24There's an entrance to a tunnel there.
14:27Follow it as far as you can.
14:29Take every left turn.
14:37Your exo-wing won't be much help in there, Kaz.
14:39It'll be tight, JT, but I can do it.
14:41No. I want you to fly a holding pattern.
14:44If we don't come back soon, contact Admiral Winfield.
14:47You'll need my firepower.
14:49Inside the cave, you're a liability, Takagi.
14:52You got your orders?
14:55Yes, sir, lieutenant.
15:08You'll have company soon.
15:11A squad of exo-fleet e-frames.
15:15We'll have plenty of time to prepare a warm welcome.
15:28Simbaka's men are too smart to walk into a trap like this.
15:31This isn't for pirates.
15:33This surprise is for Marsh and his exo-fleet e-frames.
15:37Marsh isn't my enemy.
15:39Simbaka is.
15:40Our war is with the exo-fleet.
15:43That is what Simbaka forgot.
15:45Open fire when they reach the center of the caverns.
15:48Pallas, I want you.
15:50Pallas!
15:52Stop him!
15:59I'll deal with you after we annihilate the exo-squad.
16:07This way.
16:08Barka said to take the tunnels to the left.
16:11Yeah, I know.
16:11Good.
16:12You don't trust Barka after all.
16:14Let's just say, I trust my instincts.
16:18They should have been here by now.
16:20Marsh isn't a fool.
16:22You're too impressed with the exo-fleet.
16:25You're as bad as Simbaka.
16:26Quickly, back to the main cabin!
16:36Any change?
16:37Not for the better.
16:40I think I can reverse that.
16:42You'd be wasting your time, Professor.
16:44I've been studying the pirates' physiology.
16:47Prolonged exposure to dark matter has caused the hyperactivity of the nervous system,
16:51which accounts for the pirates' violent mood swings and emotional instability.
16:56Dark matter?
16:57What about my people?
16:58It's not a problem yet.
17:00And we can take preventative measures to ensure it won't become one.
17:04But for the pirates, full-spectrum therapy should reduce the hyperactivity
17:07and allow the neural pathways to re-establish themselves.
17:11You propose to save this man's life with light?
17:15Well, yes, if you put it that way.
17:20Do you really think this is going to work?
17:23If my theory about dark matter syndrome is correct, it will.
17:27And if it isn't correct?
17:30That never occurred to me.
17:43Man, get a load of that.
17:45I have never seen a ship more magnificent or more deadly.
17:50I wonder if they mean to use it against the Nios or the Exo Fleet.
17:54Well, since we can't be sure, we can't let them keep it.
17:57How do we destroy something that big?
17:59Oh, we're not going to destroy it.
18:00We're going to steal it.
18:04Go for the ship's bridge.
18:08Exo Trooper!
18:09Split up!
18:10Rendezvous with the bridge!
18:39Man, you shouldn't make Wolf-Bronsky mad!
18:43Man, you shouldn't make Wolf-Bronsky mad!
19:19Bad news, J.T. There's no engines in this tub!
19:24This dry dock was designed to launch the ship before engines were ignited.
19:28Then let's punch it!
19:52Hang on!
19:53Hang on!
20:00Master Takagi, contact Exo Fleet, Kaz.
20:04We'll need a tow.
20:05Yee-haw!
20:14Professor Algernon can't stop talking about your recovery, Simbarka.
20:17It was nothing short of miraculous.
20:19It's no more miraculous than this ship.
20:22You've captured a fine prize for yourself, Marsh.
20:25Me?
20:26Oh, no way.
20:28I get nervous flying anything bigger than an E-frame.
20:31The ship is yours, Simbarka.
20:32No.
20:34The ship belongs to the Alliance.
20:37And I know just the man to captain her.
20:40Simbarka!
20:43I was wrong about you.
20:44You would not sacrifice another for your ambition.
20:47Now you hold my life in your hands.
20:52No man attacks me and lives!
20:55Simbarka, no!
20:56We need Halas.
20:58Lieutenant Marsh is right.
20:59We need everyone we've got if Phaeton's going to be defeated.
21:02Revenge is a luxury we can't afford.
21:05You are lucky this time, Halas.
21:09Remember that.
21:15I'd stay out of his way for a while if I were you.
21:18I owe Simbarka my life now.
21:21Someday I'll find a way to repay him.
21:27I'll find him.
