Episode Summary

During a battle with the Zone Riders, Overlord discovers a young paraplegic girl that is immune to the Zone! The Zone Riders get to her first, however, and take her back to M.C.C. with the hope of solving the mystery of the SPIRAL ZONE. But Overlord comes up with a plan to use the girl's parents as bait to lure her back into the Zone and do whatever it takes to ensure that M.C.C. doesn't discover the girl's immunity!

Episode Notes

Another personal favorite of mine, this episode shows how the SPIRAL ZONE affected children and families. It also illustrates Tank's love of children and his ongoing guilt for not having been with his son during the initial SPIRAL ZONE attack. Also, seeing the girl's parents not wanting to leave the Zone is a disturbing sight indeed.
