Episode Summary

    This is the first episode in the five part series. Introducing the cast and their role in the series, typical first episode stuff. We learn that the character J.J. is the new recruit for the glorious White Knights (The holders of 3 rare weapons that have the sheer power to obliterate whatever they hit, AKA The Zillion Gun.) and that he is a little arrogant for his own good. Apple, an excellent marksman plays her role of the attractive babe that can have both a killer attitude and has feelings as well. Champ, also being of the arrogant has more of a head on his shoulders than the "brave yet not thinking" J.J. .
    The first episode not only brings the characters into a team we learn of the plans of the NOZA to wipe out the human infestation of the planet and take it for their own. Most of the episode (after the cast congregation) entails the search of a Highly Sophisticated Communications Chip that was lost when the shuttle that took off from the planet gets shot down by NOZA troops. Who finds the chip? And will the White Knights ever stop bickering amongst themselves? I won't say but expect  ROBOTECH type of combat and situations and plenty of giggles along the way.
