Gathering for the Space Race
The Outlaw Star arrives at Heifong. Gene and Jim look into entering the space race. The entry fee is considerably more money than they have. They turn to Fred Luo for help. Fred agrees to pay their entry fee but it will be deducted from their winnings. They have to finish in the top three in order to win enough to cover the entry fee.
Gene looks for signs of the MacDougall ship. He doesn't spot it until it is too late to confront them before the race. Gene and Jim go to a reception before the race and run into Aisha Clan-Clan . She is working as a waitress for the company catering the event. She tries to attack them but then her boss calls her out for not doing her job. She cowers at the thought of not being paid and backs off.
The race begins. They have to hit certain checkpoints. Gene decides to take the most dangerous route to the first checkpoint. The episode ends with a the Outlaw Star looking like it is about to get overwhelmed by a storm of debris.
The opening to this episode is about the history of space races.
I guess the best part here was the return of Aisha Clan-Clan. This isn't a bad episode but it does feel as though the plot is just inching forward slowly. A little more excitement would be nice.
