01:07To be continued...
01:38Falling back all over Venus.
01:39Keep up the pressure.
02:01They're on the run.
02:02Do we follow them?
02:03Negative.
02:05But let's not leave them anything to come back to.
02:33The Neosapien counterattack has been broken.
02:36They're heading into the forest in Sector Delta 4-2, and it isn't a retreat. They're running.
02:41Good work, J.T. Keep up the pressure.
02:44Support ground troops assaulting Mount Artemis in Sector Alpha 8-5.
02:49I want that area secured ASAP.
02:53Understood, sir.
02:54Let's let the Neos know we mean business.
03:00Commence firing!
03:22I would not like to be inside that fortress.
03:32Winfield's giving them a pasting.
03:41I think we're in range, sir.
03:43There's one way to find out.
03:45You heard the captain!
03:57You must hold out as long as you can.
04:06I go to strike at the heart of Exofleet.
04:25Anaconda to Rising Star.
04:27Anaconda to Rising Star, please respond.
04:31Repeat, please respond.
04:33The fortress can't last much longer.
04:35Any luck contacting the Resistance?
04:36None.
04:38I'm sure your brother's okay.
04:40Anaconda to Rising Star, please respond.
04:43I've got a present for us.
04:45I scrounged him up from a grab armor platoon.
04:47Can you make him work on my launcher?
04:53I can try, Taurus.
04:55I guarantee it'll blow something up.
04:57Just so long as it isn't me.
05:00Anaconda to Rising Star.
05:02James, it's Nara.
05:04Answer me.
05:05Please, answer me.
05:07I understand your concern for your brother, but is it justified?
05:12James has been fighting for over two years.
05:15At least now the Resistance is not alone.
05:17I know, but since they pulled back to rearm, I haven't been able to reach him.
05:22He's all I've got left.
05:24You say he isn't fighting alone, but he may be fighting his own war.
05:28Anaconda to Rising Star, please respond.
05:32Anaconda to Rising Star.
05:45We hit the jackpot.
05:46It's that pig Draconis' hoverplane, all right.
05:51Draconis' hold up in Vesta.
05:53We've waited a long time for this day.
05:56Draconis won't get out of Vesta.
05:58Let's frame up.
06:04Anaconda to Rising Star, please respond.
06:08I'm sorry, Nara, but I can't stop now.
06:11Kruger, switch communications to the alternate frequency.
06:22Today you will all have the honor of fighting for the Neo-Sapien Order.
06:26Kruger, we must hold Venus until Phaeton comes to crush the Exo-Fleet, like the insects they are.
06:34Have any of you had combat experience?
06:37I have.
06:38I was an E-Frame pilot before I was assigned to shuttle duty.
06:42Yes, Thrax, I remember you.
06:45You were demoted from E-Frames after your failure in the battle for Mercury.
06:49Yes, sir.
06:50Are you ready to redeem yourself?
06:53I am ready to fight.
06:56I am promoting you to garrison commander.
06:59Come with me.
07:08Destroying files and codebooks?
07:10Your staff acts like men already defeated.
07:13A near precaution.
07:18I've prepared one final surprise for the Exo-Fleet if Vesta should fall.
07:23After a conquest of Venus, I took an inventory of our new possessions and discovered several ancient hydrogen devices.
07:31Bombs used for mass excavation back in the old days.
07:34Primitive, but useful.
07:36If Vesta is about to fall, use this key to trigger the device.
07:40You will have 30 minutes to get out of the dome before they detonate and destroy the city for 50
07:46miles around.
07:47There are thousands of Terran laborers in the dome.
07:51I know.
07:54I know.
07:54I know.
08:11I know.
08:23For Vesta, and for Venus!
08:27ExoSquad will be back in a moment.
08:31Now back to ExoSquad.
08:41Not all!
08:46Draconis isn't going to get away this time.
08:53I'd say one of their aircraft is missing.
09:02When we find Draconis, he's mine.
09:22I must have an E-frame.
09:29Anaconda to Rising Star.
09:31Anaconda to Rising Star.
09:34Why won't James answer?
09:36Perhaps he chooses not to hear.
09:38Perhaps he wants to fight his battles by himself.
09:42That's what I'm afraid of.
09:47Just what the doctor ordered.
09:49We aim to please.
09:56That was great, Bronski.
09:58You had that gunship right in your sights.
10:00Too bad it was ours.
10:02Hey, I knew it was a friendly.
10:04Why do you think I missed?
10:05I monitored a report from the flagship, JT.
10:08Recon says there's heavy fighting around Vesta's spaceport.
10:11I think it's the Resistance.
10:13We should mount a supporting...
10:15Admiral Winfield's declared Vesta an open city.
10:17We have orders not to attack.
10:20And that includes James.
10:21James won't let an ExoFleet order stop him.
10:24Not if that's where Draconis is.
10:26What do you want me to do?
10:28Help James or arrest him for disobeying orders?
10:30Either way, he'll be alive.
10:33What do you think, Marcella?
10:34I think personal concerns cannot be allowed to influence military decisions.
10:40Thanks, Marcella.
10:42Thanks a lot.
10:43However, one of our primary functions on Venus is to gather intelligence.
10:49I feel it is our duty to go to Vesta for reconnaissance.
10:54Good point, Marcella.
10:56Let's frame up.
11:08Pull back.
11:09Regroup outside the perimeter.
11:18Protect the shuttle.
11:42Draconis, the Resistance has discovered the shuttle.
11:44Guard the shuttle well, Creon.
11:46The Resistance is trapped.
11:48There is still time to destroy them all.
12:10Draconis!
12:13Draconis!
12:14This is for Mom and Dad!
12:20You fought your last battle, Terran!
12:42The Exo Fleet may liberate Venus, but you won't live to see it.
12:47What?
13:03You should not have made Wolf Bronski mad!
13:13We'll see how good you are, Terran.
13:16So you want to play, Hot Shot!
13:29Oh, man!
13:31Oh, man!
13:31Oh, man!
13:39Ah!
13:41Oh, man!
14:00Should I rendezvous with the shuttle after I set the detonator?
14:03By all means. Try.
14:09Do we really wait for him?
14:11It would be a long wait.
14:13There is no timer.
14:15The device will explode when he turns the key.
14:40Scratch one E-Frame.
14:42Hey, what's so important that an E-Frame would leave in the middle of a firefight?
15:10I don't know.
15:37prepare to initiate arming sequence
15:40exosquad will be back in a moment
15:44now back to exosquad
15:53waiting please initiate arming sequence
15:57no
16:00arming sequence has been terminated
16:03i joined this war for justice for the
16:05neo sapiens
16:06i will not destroy it just for the sake of
16:09destruction
16:24what a terran exo fighter
16:27don't even think it
16:31that's it nice and easy turn around slow sudden moves make me nervous
16:39i know you it's not true then that we all look alike terrans you were on mercury you let me
16:47live
16:48why it seemed like a good idea at the time
16:56halt don't make me fire no one makes you fire it's a decision you make for yourself and you have
17:04to live with it
17:22i couldn't do it not like that
17:35that's it
17:38i mean it's not true
17:56Your lucky day, pal.
18:12I get the point.
18:30Ready to go another round?
18:50I don't take prisoners' sape.
18:56Hey! Put me down!
18:58When you fight beside an exosquad, you fight by our rules.
19:09This is James' group. He's got to be here.
19:18There he is.
19:26James!
19:32Please, little brother, don't leave me now.
19:53How soon can you get the fleet underway?
19:55One of our E-Frames followed you up from the surface.
19:58We can leave as soon as he joins the fleet.
20:00We can't wait to pick up strays.
20:02It's the E-Frame pilot, Thrax.
20:06Thrax?!
20:06He must have disobeyed your orders.
20:18I armed the device, sir.
20:21Perhaps the Terrans found and disarmed it before it exploded.
20:25I see.
20:27I would have taken your life for disobeying my orders.
20:30But for lying to me, I will make you regret that you ever existed.
20:35Yes, I disobeyed.
20:37Even in war, there are some things a soldier must not do.
20:41Take him away!
20:45Phaeton!
20:47Draconis!
20:48You have let the Terrans take Venus.
20:51Phaeton!
20:51The situation is only temporary.
20:54I plan to-
20:55You will do nothing!
20:57I am taking command of the battle myself.
21:00I don't understand.
21:02Are you bringing reinforcements?
21:04I am bringing a single ship.
21:07What good is one more ship?
21:09It depends on the ship.
21:20Something must be wrong with the sensors.
21:22We're picking up a ship, but...
21:24But...
21:25It's gigantic!
21:39Exosquad will be back in a moment.
21:42Now, back to Exosquad!
21:51Stay tuned for this episode.
22:04What are we going to do?
22:13Whatever.
22:13You will find it.
22:13You will be in the boat.
22:14You will find the ship.
22:15What happens when the ship has filled with it.
