Plot[]
A drop pod from the space releases MULE. It gathers bigger minerals and throws them to the command center. Slot machine on barracks obtains jackpot of three marines, and causes the overproduction of marine, medivac dropships and vikings from starport.
In the protoss main base, two stalkers find a sentry stuck between gateways and pylons. They are engaged in terran rush in the surprise attack. The immortal fights back with several hits, but he is run over by numerous marines. The colossus warps in on the robotics facility, but the vikings launch missiles at it. The colossus tries to accept "Press to warp back to Auir" button to escape, but is destroyed. Hopeless stalker sees the destruction of their base before he is gunned down. The area is captured as the blue flag raises, orbital command lands on the mineral area, and more drop pods of MULE's rain down.

- The button pressed by the colossus reads, "warp back to aUIr", instead of the proper spelling
- Sgt. Patches returns from "Zerg BM", whose rear part has been stitched back.
- On the scene of nexus's damage, a marine on skateboard is shown.
- This is the first time the whole base has been taken over by an enemy race.
