EPISODE OVERVIEW

0 Reviews 13 Votes

Shiv Katall is stealing numerous high-tech devices; this seriously confuses Team Lightyear, since Buzz and Commander Nebula were the only ones to take on the guise of Shiv. Shiv turns out to be actually Buzz Lightyear; the EVIL Buzz Lightyear (...it only makes sense that he would've come up with the whole Shiv idea in HIS universe as well...). When Buzz (...the evil one...) flies too close to Capital Planet's sun for 42's scanners to detect his location, Mira and Buzz (...the good one...) fly down in Star Skimmers to try to find him. They discover that Buzz (...the evil one...) is working with Gravitina, setting up another device that can boost her psycho-gravimetric powers to such a degree that she can cause "sun-quakes" that can launch solar plasma-balls towards Capital Planet, Star Command Headquarters, and just about any planet whose solar system is nearby (...Tangea is mentioned as a possible target...). The first volley of plasma-balls are prevented from wiping out Star Command by numerous rangers working with laser-drills. When Mira & Buzz (...the good one...) are kicked off of Gravitina's & Buzz's (...the evil one's...) low sun-orbit base (which resembles the cloud city from the movie, The Empire Strikes Back...), Mira manages to ghost into Buzz (...the good one...) and they sneak back on board. They set the base to automatic self-destruct, and offer to help Gravitina and Buzz (...the evil one...) off, if they turn themselves in. They manage to get Gravitina off of the base, but Buzz (...the evil one...) is left behind. At the episode's end, we see (unbeknownst to Team Lightyear) Buzz (...the evil one...) riding off on an errant rocket engine. Add a recap »

  • Animation Production by: Jade Animation International Limited edit »
