Commander Aguire has joined the rebels in attacking the government of Earth, and the evil leaders are on the run.
The fight for freedom starts now. Our evil vice president has invited Commander Jose Aguire to the Capitol in order to use him as a spokesman to explain President Garane's death and cement Batastia's position as dictator.

The time has come for the officers and crew of the Starship Hanno to choose sides.

With nothing left to screw up more than he already has, Captain Poluka takes the Starship Hanno back to the mysterious Zone to see what the automated probes have learned.

There are now two groups of aliens onboard the Starship Hanno: The official diplomats meeting with Captain Poluka, and the Arcturusian doctors who are charming the crew, each doing what they can to persuade the captain.
