Uneggspected is the twenty-fourth episode in the first season of StarCrafts.
Plot[]
The ghost, after the serious setback of a changeling spy, recruits four marines, a reaper and marauder to attack the zerg hive cluster. He counts down from three before they start the combat against the queen who retrieves overseer's notepad about the terran base information. The enraged queen unleashes burrowed units such as zerglings, hydralisks, roaches and infestor. They fend off the retaliating zerg swarm. Ghost dodges the zergling's pounce and the baneling which bursts with the zergling, Marauder shoots the roach attacking a marine. However, the group in entrapped by the Derpfestor's fungal growth, and the infestor gets splat by Ghost's EMP shot which removes his energy.
Pack of banelings roll toward the trapped group, which the reaper fears of his death. But they are saved by the marauder's sacrifice shielding them from suicidal acid blasts. As they continue to shoot off the remaining zerg units, the reaper and a marine are killed by hydralisk's shot, and last marine fights back.
The queen reads notepad pages, but she gets a headshot done by ghost using snipe ability. The marine and ghost checks an egg at the hatchery. Unexpectedly, the egg bursts out an ultralisk.
