Expect The Unexpected Part 1
Space: 2020. Humans on the NASA Mars Expedition base make first contact with an alien species. Unfortunately, the alien is Zelda, Imperial Queen of the Planet Guk and she destroys the base as the first step in her plan to destroy all human life on Earth. The moment has been prepared for, and Zelda and her family must face the Terrahawks. Using her control over matter, she prepares her first attack...

Expect The Unexpected Part 2
The Terrahawks withstand Zelda`s first attack, but Ninestein is faced with an unexpected development - Zelda returns to Earth under a flag of truce. She promises to use her incredible powers for the good of mankind, but can Ninestein trust her, and can Sergeant Major Zero overcome his programming and disobey a direct order?

Thunder Roar
Zelda has thawed out the terrifying Sram, Lord of the plant Felony, whose mighty roar is able to shake space itself. Crash-landing on Earth, the Terrahawks close in on Sram, only to find out that this is one opponent who is at his most dangerous when injured, and Tiger might not live to tell the tale.

Close Call
Reporter Mark Darrell knows too much about Terrahawks and the threat to Earth, and tells all on worldwide TV. When Zelda contacts Darrell and promises him the secrets of Terrahawks, Tiger is forced to decide how far he will go to defend Terrahawks against a security risk from a human source.

From Here To Infinity
Tiger is drawn into a mystery from space as the Alpha Probe, launched into deep space in 1999 and never programmed to come back, returns some 21 years later. The probe is powered by an old-style nuclear rocket, and only the Terrahawks are equipped to bring it down safely to Earth. But as Sgt Major Zero boards the probe to help guide it to Hawknest, he senses that he is not alone...

Space Samurai
Tamura, a Space Samurai, is convinced by Zelda that her cause against Earth is just, and agrees to help broker peace between the two sides. Can Zelda hide her true motives from her new ally, with his strict code of honour, for long enough to gain a decisive advantage over Tiger, and finally destroy the Terrahawks?

The Sporilla
Zelda unleashes her most terrifying monster yet against the Terrahawks: a deadly, metal-eating Sporilla from her home planet of Guk which she has gained mind control of. She traps Tiger and Kate in the Terrahawks tracking station, and if the Sporilla doesn`t kill them, their air supply will run out in 24 hours!

Happy Madeday
The Terrahawks are menaced by an enemy they cannot identiify: MOID, Master Of Infinite Disguise, who can make himself look like anything he chooses. When Hiro is captured and replaced by MOID it is up to Sgt. Major Zero to save the day so that everyone lives to celebrate his birthday, or rather Madeday.

Gunfight At Oak`s Corral
The Terrahawks are searching for a cube missing in the desert after losing a fight with a zeroed. The badly damaged cube is still highly dangerous, as Zelda proves by using it to transmit her hypnotic abilities. Using old Sam Oaky as a hostage, Zelda forces Ninestein into a duel between himself and the cube.

The Ugliest Monster Of All
Zelda unveils her next threat to Earth: a monster hideous beyond her wildest imaginings - but to humans Yuri is a cute, cuddly Teddy Bear. The charming Space Bear is discovered by Hiro on Spacehawk, and the apparently helpless bear is taken to Hawknest where it is discovered that Yuri is very dangerous indeed!

The Gun
Yungstar has discovered that two cubes are more powerful than one, so Zelda sends to Earth a force of 20 cubes which together have the power to destroy anything on the planet. Meanwhile, Ninestein is having communication problems with the many accents of the Zeroids.

Thunder Pass
Sram, Lord of Felony is back, and Zelda sends him straight to the heart of the Terrahawks. Using his mighty roar, Sram takes control of the Overlander, the automated transporter which carries vital supplies to Hawknest. The vehicle will take the deadly creature to Hawknest`s secret location.

Mind Monster
Zelda`s latest plan to destroy her human enemies involves sending them a strange mist which confronts people with their worst fears. Soon the Terrahawks are attacked from all sides by their most terrifying opponents in their own headquarters!
