Keezor plans to set a trap in the asteroid belt boxing in the space explorers, but an overzealous Drule commander, Melnon, jumps the gun and attacks to soon. The Explorer sends a probe into the belt and discovers mines. The support fleet is attacked by Melnon and Voltron goes to defend, attacking a Robeast. They drive the Drules off and return to the command ship. The Lieutenant volunteers to take the meteor breaker into the belt to clear a path for Voltron and the support fleet. The force waits. When they are called to action Lisa stops Jeff to give him a good luck charm, her necklace. They all follow the Lieutenant as he blasts his way through the asteroid belt in the meteor breaker. When they break through they discover the Drule base abandoned, the Drules pulling out knowing they had already lost.
