[electronic trilling]
[Frank] Olivia!
[suspenseful music playing]
[Olivia straining]
Cadet Park, return to base immediately.
[General Park sighing]
Cadet Park, Hero Force has not gone through the proper testing.
We don't know if it can reach escape velocity.
I'm ordering you to...
Cadet Park?!
[Olivia grunting]
Not now, Dad.
[engines whirring]
[Olivia grunting]
[alarm blaring]
[suspenseful music swelling]
[Olivia straining]
- [music stops] - [alarm stops]
[Olivia] Huh?
[dramatic music playing]
Whoa.
She made it!
Hero Force One is intact and stable, sir.
Ugh. Keep tracking her.
Let me know immediately if you get her back.
[Stanford sighing]
We'll get you right, old friend.
You all right, captain?
Yeah, never better.
[footsteps approaching]
- [both gasping] - [Stanford grunting]
Chief Max, I need you to go to the GDR Control Unit and get it online.
But, sir...
Chief Max, we can't risk any other threats getting through the opening.
Repairing the GDR is critical.
More critical than helping Olivia?
She's up there alone because I'm not.
Engineering is already stretched thin.
Chief Max and I are the only ones fixing Tombo, so I can go get her.
- Any word? - She made it through the atmosphere.
[all gasping]
- Ava can do it. - [Ava gasping]
She knows the GDR system just as well as I do, maybe better.
I trust her.
- I won't let Sky Corps down, sir. - Fine.
Stanford, go with Ava, provide a security detail.
There still could be Shargs out there.
Keep alert, and if you see anything, call for backup.
Yes, sir.
Maya, take the north end of campus, Frank, take the south.
Set up a defensive perimeter while Engineering gets some Robos back up.
- Yes, sir. - Yes, sir.
Get to it. And, Cadets...
good luck.
[Dolly] Stanford.
Yeah, Ma?
Your responsibilities go beyond just yourself now.
People are counting on you.
I'm counting on you.
[Dolly grunting]
Be safe, and keep an eye out for your friend.
[inspiring music playing]
General, what can I do to help?
- You wanna help? - I wanna help save lives.
Right now we have to fortify the campus defenses.
Anything that doesn't require using a Robo, you have my permission.
- When will they be ready? - HF3 and HF4 are almost ready.
But HF2 is out of the fight for now.
I need every HF unit operational.
[Clark] They'll be ready.
[General Park sighing]
[tense music playing]
[Olivia] Huh?
[computer trilling, beeping]
Hero Force, initiate scan.
[computer trilling]
[Olivia] Hmm.
[ominous music playing]
[gasping]
[man] Durban's been secured.
Sir, no word from Cadet Park, but she left the Global Defense Ring.
She's headed towards the Sharg ship.
Hail her again.
[Stanford] Holy smokes.
[car door opening]
[gasping] Oh my... Look at this mess.
How do I even start?
We can do this.
I got you. One step at a time.
- [car doors closing] - [Ava breathing deeply]
Team, unload the fusion generators and head into the station.
Look out for ionization or radiant thermal pockets.
Tap into the main power supply, get the system turned on,
and run a full diagnostic.
Nice!
[Ava] Hmm.
- You... and you. - Huh?
[Buddy warbling]
[Ava] I need to get up there to realign the tower.
[Maya] You think Olivia is okay?
[Frank] I don't know. I hope so.
How're you holding up?
[Maya] Well, a few days ago we were just trainees,
hoping to get Robos.
Now, we're the only two left guarding Sky Corps
while the defense shield that protects our planet has a huge hole
and our friend is in space poking around a giant scary Sharg ship.
I guess I'm okay.
- [Frank] Hey, Maya? - Yeah.
[dramatic music playing]
[Frank] I think I messed up... bad.
[Maya] What do you mean?
That Sharg came out of my grid.
You know, when we were scanning the area, I missed it.
Ah, man. That's not your fault.
We don't even know what we're up against.
Remember, this is some sort of evolved new Sharg.
Yeah, but I keep thinking if I caught it, maybe Tombo would be in one piece.
[Maya] Huh?
Maybe Olivia wouldn't be up there by herself.
[Maya gasping, grunting]
[both gasping]
Hey, get out of your head, Frank.
The only thing we can do is learn from what's behind us
and use it to face what's ahead.
[uplifting music playing]
[Frank sighing]
[energy pulsing]
Yeah, but he did order Veritas to be killed.
[Stanford] Maybe he felt he didn't have a choice.
You always... [screaming]
[Ava grunting]
Thanks.
No problem.
You always have a choice.
And he chose to kill that Robo.
[Buddy warbling]
How would you feel if they put Buddy down?
- [Buddy warbling] - I mean, they tried.
I would never let that happen to you, Buddy. I promise.
End of day, our choices have consequences.
General Park has to live with the decisions he's made,
just like the rest of us.
[Olivia] Command. Central Command. Do you copy?
Olivia! Are you okay?!
Yeah, I'm fine.
I'm at the Sharg ship. I'll connect my video feed.
- [mysterious music playing] - [computer trilling]
[computer beeping]
[scanner warbling]
[Stanford gasping]
[both gasping]
All right, that's enough. Head back.
[Olivia] I'm a pilot. This is my job, right?
Hurry.
It's almost complete.
[computer beeping]
[scanner warbling]
[Olivia] Hmm.
[squelching]
- [intense music playing] - [Olivia gasping]
[Olivia] The ship has an eye.
That's not a ship. That entire thing is a Sharg!
Olivia, get out of there, now!
[Olivia] Okay.
[Olivia grunting]
[Sharg lowing]
[Olivia gasping, grunting]
[computer trilling, beeping]
[General Park seething]
[both gasping]
We need to go help her.
Stand down. Remain at your posts. Clark! Launch the HF units!
Yes, sir.
Those eggs will trail Hero Force One through the opening in the GDR.
Every one of those eggs is a gigantic Sharg.
We won't be able to stop them all.
[Olivia grunting]
Ava, how much longer on the GDR?
Power's up. I just need to reinitiate the startup...
- [Park] How much time? - Few minutes.
[Adam] Yo, yo, dawgs!
[music stops]
Chief Clark told me to take your seat.
[chuckling] Look, I don't have time for this.
I got saving-the-world business to get to.
[suspenseful music playing]
[boy grunting]
Hey!
Secure Cadet Park and protect the gap until we can get the GDR back up.
Will most def have Olivia back in time for lunch, General P.
[intense dramatic music playing]
[grunting]
- [alarm blaring] - [Adam straining]
[music fades]
Bean burrito, bad idea! Whoa!
You've gotta be kidding me!
Sanchez, Olivetti, launch!
[both] Yes, sir!
[Frank] We won't let you down.
[suspenseful music playing]
What about us, sir?
You're the last Robo we have here.
Stay with Ava until she has the GDR running, then get back to campus.
Are there any more Robos to send?
[tablet beeping]
No, sir. They're all either wounded or still dealing with ground attacks.
[General Park grunting]
[intense music swelling]
[laser firing]
- [Olivia grunting] - [alarm blaring]
[Olivia grunting]
[Sharg warbling]
Olivia, we're on our way!
[Buddy trilling, warbling]
I know, Buddy. I know.
[Olivia grunting]
[Sharg warbling]
[grunting]
[computer beeping]
- What the... - [loud thudding]
[Stanchie] The eggs are stealing energy from HF1's core.
- How much longer before Robos get there? - [Stanchie] Thirty seconds!
[yelling] General Park!
[yelling]
[alarm blaring]
- Olivia, hang on. - Please.
Dad.
Get her back!
[intense music swelling]
[General Park groaning]
[Maya] Break right, Olivia.
[Stanchie] The Robos made it!
[Frank grunting]
Man, am I happy to see you guys.
[Maya] No prob, Liv.
Got it!
[energy pulsing]
Sir, the GDR is coming back online.
- Should I... - Go!
[Stanford grunting]
[inspiring music playing]
Sir, they need to move faster.
The GDR is going to close before they can get there!
Pick up the pace, Cadets. The GDR is coming back online.
[Frank yelling]
[Frank] Hurry!
We won't make it!
[music fades]
Where did they go?
[all grunting]
[Frank] Whoa!
- [Olivia] How did you do that? - [Maya] Was that Buddy?
I... I think I'm starting to understand what Buddy can do.
Thanks, guys. I thought I was toast.
Of course, we got ya.
[Sharg growling]
[alarm blaring]
[computer beeping, trilling]
[General Park sighing]
Aiden, you did this!
[both grunting]
[tense music playing]
[panting] Feel better?
Olivia was up there alone. She could have died!
[both grunting]
You don't think I know that?
You don't think I know what's at stake? She's my daughter.
[both grunting]
What do you think is the entire point of Hero Force?
So we can stop sending kids off to die!
What do you know about putting your life on the line?
[both grunting]
[scoffing] Oh, of course. Nothing.
I was never a pilot.
I was never in the line of fire.
And you've always looked down on me for that.
You might be good at killing Shargs, but you could never do what I do.
I have to carry the weight of the world on my shoulders!
[breathing heavily]
And I know plenty about dying.
You are not the Aiden I knew as a kid.
[General Park chuckling]
And you are still the same naive boy
who thinks the world is a good place.
You are wrong.
[dramatic music playing]
[pin clattering]
[Stanford] What's it doing?
- [Frank] It's coming right for us! - [Maya] The GDR will stop it.
[Sharg growling]
[intense music playing]
[Maya grunting]
[Stanford] The satellite! It's going down again!
[Sharg growling]
[intense music swelling]
[music fades]
