Spiral Zone1987

[as Ned and Tank are halfway to the window, Katerina opens a door and sees Commander Courage, zoned, sitting in the room]

Katerina Anastasia:
Dirk!

[Caught in emotion, Katerina rushes to Commander Courage, abandoning caution. She gently caresses his cheek]

Katerina Anastasia:
Oh, Dirk...

[Overlord enters, pistol drawn. Katerina turns around, but too late. Overlord shoots her and she collapses. As Overlord prepares to shoot again, a shot knocks the pistol from his hand]

Overlord:
What?

[Overlord turns and sees Max standing at the doorway, shooting at him. Overlord drops on the floor, grabs his gun and returns fire. Katerina stands and helps Commander Courage get on his feet]

Katerina Anastasia:
[to Commander Courage] Quickly, we must get out of here!

[while Max and Overlord exchange fire, Katerina and Commander Courage start to advance toward the door. Overlord notices them]

Overlord:
No!

[Overlord shoots three times at Katerina and Commander Courage. Quickly, Katerina drops Commander Courage on the floor lest he would get hit. One of the shots hit her, and she collapses again, crying in agony. As Commander Courage's body hits the floor, the tiny biochip on his neck starts transmitting again. At M.C.C., General McFarland and Dr. Lawrence see that the signal on the screen is back]

Dr. Harold Lawrence:
It's Dirk! He's back online, and in Overlord's headquarters!

General McFarland:
Quick, trigger the command!

[Ned and Tank nearly reached the window. Max and Overlord shoot at each other. Then, M.C.C. transmits a command in Overlord's voice to Commander Courage's implant]

Overlord:
[the command in Overlord's is heard by Commander Courage via the transmitter] Destroy the Zone generator! Let no one stand in your way!

[Commander Courage, in his Zoned state, must obey any command given by Overlord, and he complies. He takes a pistol from unconscious Katerina's ankle-holster, and shoots at Overlord. The shot hits metal, spraying scraps into Overlord's face, and he collapses. Commander Courage stands and walks to the window]

Dirk Courage:
[mumbles while stepping toward the window] Must destroy... generator...

[reaching the window, Commander Courage carefully aims the pistol toward the generator]
