The film cuts to the Space Police fleet, where an officer in one of the ships is being spied on by the Blacktron pilot. The officer switches his monitor between different scenes, of a Space Police Commander ship, a Blacktron Intruder Force ship, a news report by "Larry Lego" of the Spyrius base being attacked by a robot, and finally an asteroid field. The jet-pack pilot appears floating in the asteroid field before transforming into a Star Rider and flying away.
