02:00No, Mackenzie.

02:01All right, you asked for this meeting, Ursula.

02:02Why?

02:03Because I want to leave Overlord.

02:04I'm tired of this endless fighting.

02:06I was never meant to be a soldier.

02:21I thought Overlord would have me rule at his side.

02:26But he has no intention of sharing power.

02:29sharing power overlord would gladly sacrifice me if he thought it would help him i'm afraid arthur

02:38afraid of the other black widows they want power for themselves and i stand in their way

05:30strike your aircraft counter-attack

05:40this passage leads to the lake if you really want to lead overlord

06:13now quickly stun me do it how else can i explain your escape

06:23but

06:30we didn't have time to argue

06:41we didn't have time to argue

06:45Stryker at 12 o'clock.

07:15Arthur, to unite the courage.

07:25Major McKenzie and I are safe.

07:27We're by the lake, about a mile west of the tower.

07:45All zone riders pull back.

07:51Regrouped by the lake.

08:06The zone riders are retreating.

08:10No pursuit.

08:12It could be a zone rider trick.

08:14Strykers, maintain a covering position.

08:20Where is King Arthur?

08:22I don't know.

08:24McKenzie stunned me when the firing started outside.

08:29The tower was surrounded.

08:31How could they escape?

08:34Perhaps this old castle has a secret passage.

08:38Dr. Lawrence and I agree.

08:40Duchess Dyer's offer is probably a trap.

08:42But if it is for real, it could be our biggest break ever.

08:46Commander, you're to make contact with Duchess Dyer and hear what she has to say.

08:50We can decide how far to trust her after you talk to her.

08:54MCC out.

08:57You'll need the phone number.

08:59Back at all times

09:00However, in order the 시간mer is a big deal.

09:05fill up space inverter,

09:06It doesn't depend like on what you'reポlranking as you talk to her.

09:08If we trust her,

09:09it won't bring her to evil,

09:10Unlike all sheard dances in.

09:11The ice wall tools are a way to achieve success.

09:16َ STUDIO

09:21Then we are trying to secure,

09:22and show enough here,

09:23if you're lucky to......

09:24Let's go.

09:42Came this way.

09:45I know them dainty little feet.

09:47Wait here.

09:57I've got a phone call to make.

09:59Uh, anybody have a quarter?

10:17Oh, you may fool over law, Duchess Dyer, but you cannot fool me.

10:33Yes?

10:34This is Commander Courage.

10:36Courage?

10:37Is MCC ready to accept my offer?

10:40It's not that simple, Duchess.

10:42How do we know we can trust you?

10:44You want proof?

10:45Good guess.

10:46Well, I'll give you proof.

10:47Every zone generator has a self-destruct code known only to Overlord.

10:52But I've managed to learn the codes for many of the generators.

10:55I'll break into Overlord's master control and feed the destruct codes to the generators.

11:00I don't know when I'll be able to break into the control.

11:03So you must have troops standing by ready to secure the cities free from the zone.

11:07And which cities will be free?

11:09New York, Paris, London, Tokyo, Mexico City, Leningrad, Chicago, Shanghai, Cairo.

11:22A zone writer.

11:24San Francisco, Madrid, Athens, Caracas.

11:30Do you have them, Courage?

11:31I've got them recorded on my comlink.

11:42Stay tuned.

11:43The zone writers will be back.

11:49And now we return with more Spiral Zone action.

11:51Zone patrol, move in.

12:12We're out of time.

12:38We're out of time.

12:40Come on, run, Commander.

12:47I'll make it.

12:49We have to get Duchess Dyer's message to McFarland.

12:52What's happening?

12:53Courage!

12:54Can you hear me?

12:56Sorry.

12:57The wrong number.

13:00Zone generators in half the major cities of the world all destroyed at once.

13:04I don't know.

13:06It sounds too good to be true.

13:08Commander Courage is right.

13:09Duchess Dyer's offer could be part of an elaborate trap.

13:13An overlord couldn't possibly have anything to gain by destroying his own zone generators.

13:18I believe her offer is genuine.

13:20I'm ordering all UN forces around the world put on standby alert.

13:24We'll follow Duchess Dyer to an abandoned apartment where she contacted the zone riders by videophone.

13:31So that's what they were doing inside the zone.

13:36I heard her use the name Courage.

13:39She has betrayed you, overlord.

13:47Yes, I know.

13:50I ordered her to.

13:52An excellent job of acting, my dear.

13:56Very professional.

13:57Why, thank you, overlord.

14:02I was once expelled from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts.

14:07I kept my plan a secret from the rest of you as a test of your loyalty.

14:13Fortunately for you, you passed the test.

14:17Two days from now, I will destroy several major zone generators around the world.

14:23The UN will believe that Duchess Dyer has betrayed me.

14:27Hundreds of thousands of troops will be sent into the areas freed from the zone.

14:32I will then set off new zone pods hidden near the old generators.

14:40The UN armies will be trapped when the zones reappear.

14:45In one day, I will capture great numbers of the United Nations forces.

14:50And the zone riders as well.

14:56I hate just waiting around like this.

14:59We'll start earning our pay again soon enough.

15:05It is sparking.

15:07Zone generators are self-destructing throughout Europe.

15:10We're sending all our reserves into the unzoned areas.

15:13Zones are disappearing all around the world, gentlemen.

15:16We're going to hit overlord now, before he can recover.

15:19I want you to move in and seize overlord's headquarters.

15:23Yes, sir.

15:24The zone riders and UN troops will be coming soon.

15:31I want the rest of these transports ready to follow me in two minutes.

15:35Is that clear?

15:36Yes, sir, General McFarlane.

15:37We are almost ready.

15:42I'm sorry, Kat.

15:43You and Ned are staying behind.

15:45Aye, what flippant genie saw that one out?

15:48Me.

15:49I'm keeping you out on my own authority.

15:52What is it, Tarek?

15:53I've got a bad feeling about this one, Kat.

15:55You just be ready if we need you.

15:59Column, move out!

16:01The zone riders and UN troops have ended up in the end of the day.

16:07I've got a bad feeling about this, Tarek, Tarek, Tarek, Tarek, Tarek, Tarek, Tarek.

16:09The zone riders and UN troops have entered the trap.

16:32Stand by for part detonation.

16:39Quickly, McKenzie, recall the troops.

16:45Ah, he's too late.

16:55We have secured Mexico City with Fort Belizeon.

16:58I win.

17:01Come in, Moscow.

17:02Buenos Aires, come in, Nairobi.

17:04Let's go.

17:17All units, attack.

17:19Attack.

17:20They're all zones.

17:48We've got to get them out of there.

17:49We've got to get them out of there.

18:18Lock in anti-aircraft lasers.

18:24Lock in anti-aircraft lasers.

18:42Good.

18:44Head down.

18:45That radar can't make a shot down here.

19:12Can't we do something?

19:14No, we'll have to leave them.

19:17It's our only chance.

19:24The flight's too heavy.

19:25I don't take care of it.

19:26Over here.

19:39Highway 94.

19:40The flight's too heavy.

19:51The flight's too heavy.

19:52Return to Headquarters and detonate the emergency generator pod.

19:59General, we have to pull back.

20:03All units, fall back on UN Headquarters.

20:07Don't let them get away!

20:26Come on, men.

20:37Come on!

20:52Duchess, perhaps you really are planning to abandon Overlord, yes?

20:58Oh, don't be foolish, crook.

21:01Overlord is closer to victory than ever before.

21:04I will never leave, Overlord.

21:14How bad is it, sir?

21:16We've lost whole armies inside the Zone.

21:19Almost half a million men.

21:21Then those of us who are left will just have to fight harder.

21:25Things may look bad, but Overlord hasn't won yet.

21:29Not as long as we have the Zone Riders.

21:33We'll be right back with more Spiral Zone action.

21:40And now we return with more Spiral Zone adventure.

21:42Earth's most powerful soldiers fight the Spiral Zone.

21:54Our world calls for courage, peace and freedom.

22:01We will fight.

22:02We will fight.

22:03We will fight.

22:04On our honor, what is right.

22:06We will fight.

22:07We will fight.

22:08On our honor, what is right.

22:10We will defend.

22:11Fight the Zone.

22:12Fight the Zone.

22:13Zone Riders.

22:14Earth's most powerful soldiers.

22:17Or Earth's last chance.

22:19Against the Spiral Zone.

22:25Cool.

22:26Spiral Zone.

22:27Spiral Zone.

22:28Oh!

22:33Eh?

22:34Ooh
