Plot summary[]

Roy flies over Macross City in a Veritech and transforms to Battloid mode. At the Robotech Academy Henry Gloval gives a seminar and Roy lands outside declaring his affection for her with announcement and gestures, much to Claudia's annoyance. Security comes by and Roy leaves. In space aboard an Oberth Class ship Captain Mayhew works with Dr. Seuling to bring the Achilles online but with advancements in Alien Tech, it might be obsolete in a year. The shuttle Orion performs a test but the 3rd thruster doesn't turn off and has an emergency splashdown in the ocean. Roy is sent out to rescue it as it had 2 dozen construction workers for the Achilles. As rescue ships are too far to help, Roy calls out to the Lemurians as they owe him for helping them and says they'll be protected. Roy arrives and the Orion is taking on water and only a dozen got off in life boats. After Roy fires on the circling sharks coming after the life boats, the Lemurians equip flotation devices to the Orion that will self destruct in 2 minutes so the RDF can't trace them. Roy uses a tow cable to raise the ship and thanks them but they say not to ask them again. Roy recognizes Virgil Smythe as the pilot and upon hearing Claudia is on Macross Island, he gets excited. At night Da Silva meets with Salamander and brings him burgers. Salamander dislikes having to stay in the shadows and Da Silva says his employer will need his hacking skills and can help get him to the mainland.
