Plot summary[]

A man tries to hack into a place he knows he's not meant to be and thinks how Brian Bernard keeping his promise will help him. At the Institute, Brian works with a Veritech Simulation Program that has the VF-1 bust. Dr. Lang arrives and talks about Brian's relationship with his sister Nina and how she might dump him for Roy or another man. Brian appreciates Lang's concern but will stick with it. After Lang leaves, Brian gets a message from Salamander to meet him on the Monorail at 9 PM. When he goes there he meets Fielder who says he's been on Macross Island for 3 weeks and is here to help him. He stayed low until the issues with Anti Tech protesters and Dr. Wilbur was over and how Nina's speech helped things. Fielder wants Brian's help to hack into the SDF-1 Computers. He only needs 1 minute to hack in and using the access codes Brian can get him. Brian gets time to think of it and talks with Nina that night about how Fielder calls himself Salamander as they are said to live in the fires like how Brian and him used to be. Nina says don't help him but Brian tells how in the Global War in fall of 1998, Miller's Militia took over Los Angeles and San Francisco. Brian and his parents were in San Bernadino and tried to escape to the Internationalist force on the coast but they were killed and Brian was going to be enslaved. But Fielder got to him first and was Miller's Tech Wizard who kept the Power and Phones working. But really he was using his position with Miller to work against him. Brian fought for the Salamander Unit and after The Internationalists freed the city, he went to college but said if there's anything he can do to repay Fielder, he'd do it. Brian is conflicted as he doesn't wanna risk his job, but owes Fielder so much. Later Fielder gets access to the SDF-1 Computers by guessing Brian's Password but Lang calls Brian and says he got a security alert that a computer in Brian's office linked to the Alien Computer. As Brian is at home Lang asks if he knows of it and Brian says yes and to try to break the link. Fielder gets zapped and changes and Brian reports to Lang and tells him he knows Salamander but he didn't give him his code. Lang believes him and says Salamander's life might be in danger as when Lang used an Alien Computer for the first time, there were side effects. The hack lasted for 1 Minute 45 Seconds and Brian claims Salamander cracked his password, which was Nina.
