With their resources dwindling, Admiral Rick Hunter and his team turn to a desperate solution – recruiting civilian volunteers to fight in the war.

The episode follows several key characters as they struggle with the decision to join the fight. Dana Sterling, the daughter of legendary Robotech pilot Max Sterling, is torn between her duty to the military and her desire to protect her loved ones. Meanwhile, Rand, a former member of the infamous motorcycle gang known as the "Biker Mice," is hesitant to lay down his arms and risk his life for a cause he isn't sure he believes in.

As the recruitment drive gets underway, tensions rise between the military and civilian populations.
