Observing the film from their ship, Breetai and Exedore are concerned. They do not understand that what they’re watching is a work of fantasy. As Lynn Kyle decimates the huge alien invaders, the Zentraedi commander wonder if the Micronians have developed a new weapon. They are further disturbed by their own feelings as they observe the love scenes.
Breetai and Exedore are not the only ones upset by the film. Neither Rick Hunter nor Lisa Hayes can enjoy the picture. They leave the theater and run into each other outside. Kyle is still a painful reminder of the man Lisa once loved. Rick can’t bear to witness the close friendship that seems to have evolved between Minmei and her cousin. Coupled with the love scenes from the film, it’s more than he can bear. Lisa and Rick find themselves becoming unwilling allies. Their feelings of friendship for each other increase.
