Leena is thrown into a cell. She gives a grand speech on how she'll overcome this, only to met with applause by Jeremy and Ichi. It was a good speech after all.
Leena and Asrial have it out, but even after all of this the Salusain can't bring herself to hate her. Leena is utterly baffled by this statement. Priest Olmos interrupts, boasting that they have overridden the Zardon monsters and plan to unleash even more on Earth.
Mostly because they are jerks.
As Olmos and General Targon gloat, they welcome too very familiar looking fellows claiming to be caterers...
Back on Earth, the fight with the latest monster isn't going well. RX2 and ZetraRobo are barely holding their own. Mimi interjects, claiming the writing she and Steamhead have been researching are instructions for a weapon to save the Earth!
RX2 stays behind to buy the Zetramen time. He lasts a while but the robot is finally brought down. The Zetramen arrive at the mountain Mimi directed and plunge their sword into the earth. Whatever was supposed to happen doesn't go smooth as the monster turns its full fury onto them. We see the robot's head being flung away from the resulting explosion.
At the Feeble house, Akaru is teaching Ricky the proper use of a boomerang when Zetra men crash land in the backyard. Even worse, their Zetra Powers are gone!
Back on the ship, Leena stares down a firing squad. Despite everyone's best effort, she is shot, dying in Asrial's arms. Before anyone can die, however, Kalen makes the save! Yeah, it was him and Nestle as the caterers. They manage to flee but Jeremy slips away in the confusion.
Back on Earth, remember what the Zetra men did? Yeah, turns out the weapon was NOT Godzilla! As the kaiju tears apart the monster, Olmos and Targon have a falling out. Jeremy is shot in the fighting.
Darn good and the death of Leena was rather shocking. Handled in a good way, not too over the top or gratuitous.
