00:10Earth's last chance

00:13To fight the spirals of love

00:16Darkness has fallen

00:20On the victims of the zone

00:26Our world calls for courage

00:32Peace and freedom

00:35We must own

00:37We will fight

00:40On our honor

00:42But it's right

00:43We'll defend

00:45Fight the zone

00:46Zone prize

00:48Earth's most powerful soldiers

00:51Or Earth's last chance

00:53Against the spirals

00:56Zone

00:58Spirals

01:01Zone writers

01:03Looks like we're coming to a commercial

01:05Let's fight the zone

01:09Let's move it people

01:20Arigato, Caterina

01:26Hustle up there, hero

01:28Bus might leave without you

01:29On board the Eagle

01:31Hit it

01:32What's happening, Commander?

01:38Dr. Lawrence will brief us once we're in the air

01:40Attention, zone writers

01:49Our satellites have discovered something unusual in the Northern California zone

01:54This is Shadow House

01:58Owned by a brilliant but eccentric scientist, Lewis Grayson

02:02The house is near the center of the Northern California zone

02:06But as you can see

02:08It is unzoned

02:10We think that somehow

02:14Grayson has found a way to hold off the zone

02:17I don't need to tell you how important it is that we find out how

02:21You can count on us, General

02:22The power sensor I've given tank should help you track it down

02:26But you'll have to hurry

02:27Overlord's Black Widows are already attacking Shadow House

02:31Fire!

02:56The house has some kind of automatic defense system

03:12Grayson has defenses against everything we have

03:16I'd say we use the tanks

03:18Smash the place, the firewood

03:20Not until I discover the secret of Shadow House

03:24I must learn how to overcome whatever it is

03:28Opti-scan readings, everybody

03:52My Opti-scan is malfunctioning, Commander

04:03If power discharges are causing it

04:06Looks like we'll have to play it by ear

04:10Let's move out

04:12These zoners will distract those automatic defenses while we...

04:20The zone riders

04:21Open fire

04:35Split up

04:37Attack pattern

04:38Delta

04:39All right, back!

04:57All right, back!

04:59To even some off, Commander.

05:08Probably not for long.

05:10Max, maintain patrol while the rest of us check out Shadow House.

05:13You got it, Commander.

05:29Oh, it's just like a horror movie.

05:43Yeah, I hope so it's a happy ending.

05:56Detonate another zone, Pod.

05:58Perhaps that will overcome this mysterious force field.

06:02You heard, Overlord.

06:05Put it on the track.

06:10What side?

06:16You and the rest of the Black Widows

06:19take the force of Zoners to the house.

06:22Distract the Zone Riders while the new generator is set up.

06:25Just what I was thinking, Overlord.

06:30This place is a maze.

06:33I am totally lost.

06:35This way, if you please.

06:41I am Professor Lewis Grayson.

06:53How may I help you?

06:55You must know why we're here, Professor.

06:57The unzoned world needs your anti-zone device.

06:59I am afraid I cannot help you, Commander.

07:04I have never seen anything like this, Catalina.

07:08Something in this house is putting out more power than a reactor.

07:12Can you determine its location?

07:14I already have.

07:16Directly below.

07:17It is dangerous for you to stay here, sir.

07:20I am not without defenses, Commander Courage.

07:23With all respect, sir.

07:24You don't realize what you're up against.

07:26Overlord won't stop until he takes this house.

07:32Commander.

07:33This was getting to be a milk run out here,

07:35but the milk just turned sour.

07:37I got Black Widows and Zoners coming my way.

07:39Company, people.

07:40Let's go.

07:42Commander.

07:42Professor, I think I have located the anti-zone device.

07:45Good.

07:46You stay here with the Professor.

07:47The rest of you, come with me.

07:52Professor Grayson?

07:54Leather stork, yeah?

08:00Only one of them.

08:02This is almost too easy.

08:12With reading, tell me your device is downstairs.

08:37Professor, will you show me,

08:39or shall I find it myself?

08:41The zone looks getting closer.

08:45Very well, Sergeant Smith.

08:46Come with me.

08:54Speak up!

09:05About time, you guys!

09:07Shimmel!

09:19This is Pultapa!

09:24You see?

09:25The fluctuations of the zone

09:27are pushing back my force field.

09:29You have balanced the forces.

09:40Yes, but it is taking a lot of power to do so.

09:47Professor, I see no power source of your device.

09:50Where is it?

09:51Let's go.

10:11Let's get him to Overlord.

10:13Stay tuned. The Zone Riders will be back.

10:31And now we return with more Spiral Zone action.

10:43Commander, Smoke is coming from the basement. I am going to investigate.

10:48Roger, Katz.

11:02Pike!

11:13Thank you. They almost cooked my schnitzel.

11:31Duchess Dyer to band. Mission accomplished.

11:35Break off. We have what we came for.

11:43I don't get it. Why did they just pull out?

11:51Because they have the professor.

11:54Sorry, Commander.

11:56Then we'll have to go after him.

11:58Max, Hero and I will go.

12:00I need you and Kat to stay here and look into that anti-zone device.

12:03I want you to find out what makes it tick.

12:13I need you, sir.

12:16I need you, Sergeant.

12:17I need you.

12:18Take your attention.

12:21Thanks, Mrty.

12:23I need you.

12:26Peggy.

12:27I need you.

12:29Peggy.

12:30I need you to find you.

12:31You need me to find you.

12:32I need you.

12:33You need to find me.

12:34I need you, Leigh.

12:35Take your attention.

12:36You're lucky.

12:37They leave me.

12:38They leave me here.

12:39I need you.

12:40I need you.

12:41Tank, the generator has to be drawing additional power from somewhere.

12:46This may be it, da?

12:48From the ground?

12:49Or from something in the ground?

12:52Let's find out.

13:00This will not take long.

13:04The professor must be in there.

13:07All right, here's the plan.

13:08Ah, Professor Grayson.

13:12I've so looked forward to meeting you.

13:15Tell me how your device works, Professor.

13:18Force field, power, balance.

13:24Ah, he's still disoriented from the initial zone effect.

13:28It's too soon to question him.

13:30Take him away.

13:38Ah, what is this?

13:46What is this?

13:47It is a power source, without a doubt.

13:52But it looks like no power source I am familiar with.

13:56What is it?

13:57It is a meteorite.

14:00I discovered it years ago.

14:02I had a house built over it.

14:05It produces some kind of meson decay fuel that keeps the zone at bay.

14:11We must get it out to examine it.

14:13But how?

14:14I do not think they can.

14:16It appears to be huge.

14:22Excellent, Professor.

14:24Tell the others to destroy the house and get the meteorite as soon as...

14:28The songwriters!

14:43What, Widows?

14:44Stand by.

14:45I'm taking intruder up.

14:46Now, the hydraulics are malfunctioning.

15:02Prepare for ground attack.

15:16Mission 2.

15:40Turn on!

15:46Professor, come with me.

16:16Commander, I have a professor.

16:38Copy, hero.

16:39Max, pull back.

16:40Meet in previous position.

16:46Let's get him before they get the professor out of the zone.

16:52There is no need.

16:54Grayson has told me how to defeat his anti-zone device.

16:58Reaper and Razorback, come with me.

17:00Bandit, you and Duchess Dyer patrol the zone.

17:04If you see any zone riders, you'll know what to do.

17:11Professor, did you tell Overlord the secret of your device?

17:15Yes, the meteorites buried under the house.

17:19Did you tell him about a way he could defeat it?

17:21Yes, possibly a third zone generator would overcome it.

17:26If I know Overlord, he'll set up a third generator as soon as he can.

17:30Max, you take the professor back to the Eagle.

17:32Right, Commander?

17:35Nero, you and I will look for the third generator.

17:37It should be somewhere near the house.

17:39Amazing!

17:43Your lasers are useless against it.

17:45Perhaps if we both try.

17:47Get that pod unloaded. Move it!

18:02I love hard work. I can watch it all day.

18:06Zone riders, keep them away!

18:09Bandit! Over there!

18:23Hang on, Professor. This is the kind of thing I do best.

18:39We have it!

18:47This does not look good.

18:49What is happening?

18:51The zone has suddenly grown stronger.

18:54The device is trying to compensate, but I don't think it can.

18:58Can you stop it?

18:59It is overloading. This device is going to blow up.

19:04It's no use. We're outnumbering it.

19:06We better fall back to the house and get Captain Tang for reinforcements.

19:09Hike, Commander.

19:15Ah, this place is confusing.

19:16I have no idea which way leads out.

19:20Ah, don't feel a towering.

19:29Yee-haw!

19:31Good thing you're zone, Professor.

19:33You sure wouldn't like the ride.

19:36The zone has taken over half the house.

19:40Listen.

19:41Cat, Tank, get out of the house.

19:44We are trying, Commander.

19:46But we cannot find the exit.

19:54Overlord to Black Widows.

19:56According to my instruments, the new zone generator is overloading the anti-zone device.

20:01Return to intruder immediately.

20:02Another time, Max Jones.

20:06Prepare to take off.

20:07We must clear this area at once.

20:10If we cannot find an exit, we will make one.

20:14At once.

20:15If we cannot find an exit, we will make one.

20:20Hey! It's going to blow!

20:25Honey! It's going to blow!

20:30It's going to blow!

20:38It's going to blow!

20:43The meteorite was destroyed in the explosion, except for the piece Katerina and Tank saved.

21:04Perhaps a study of it might reveal something useful.

21:08Well, perhaps some may.

21:11Pity it is gone. Still some good has come out of all this.

21:16For what it's worth, after seeing Overlord in action, I am now convinced that my inventions should be used in the war against him.

21:24That's worth a lot, Professor. Welcome to our side.

21:29We'll be right back with more Spiral Zone action.

21:36And now we return with more Spiral Zone adventure.

21:41We will fight on our honor.

22:05What is right, we'll defend, fight the zone.

22:10Zone riders, Earth's most powerful soldiers, are Earth's last chance against the Spiral Zone.

22:20The Spiral Zone.

22:23Spiral Zone.

22:24Oh, whoa.

22:25Oh, whoa.

22:26The Spiral Zone.

22:35Oh, whoa.
