After training selection, Felton assigns Gaz on an undercover mission for the Space Flighters to gain any information on the Exiles, learning they are planning an attack in Los Angeles. Gaz is disguised as an associate of Makhai, and goes with him and his agents to the Memorial Coliseum, where he joins them on a massacre of executing millions of citizens and blowing up the coliseum in the process. However, Makhai has been aware of Gaz's identity and kills him during extraction, leaving his body behind to spark a war for the Exiles against the United States. The Exiles then retaliates with a massive surprise invasion on the United States, leaving billions of citizens killed doing so. With Gaz dead, hope for information on the Exiles’ plans seem lost, until the Space Flighters discover that Makhai’s new second-in-command general has information they need to stop Makhai.

Mason, Anna, Ben and Ted manage to make their way back to the others and the team escapes from the facility seconds as the entire base is destroyed by an atomic bomb. After Gaz’s funeral, team Delta, whom were furious of not being able to gain information from Darson, are informed by Felton that Makhai’s rival enemy, known as prisoner 507, has the same Intel information as Darson did and is being held captive by the Exiles in a prison base back on Ariex. Traveling to the dark side of Ariex, the team arrives at the prison base and fights off Darson’s troops to rescue prisoner 507, who turns out to be the one and only Jace Price ( Adam Brody  ). It is revealed that when Jace was sucked into the black vortex, he was transported to Ariex and was captured by the exiles and held prisoner for seven years. Jace informs Felton and the Space Flighters the Exiles are building an army of robotic soldiers to help the exiles destroy North America. Jace agrees to help stop the exiles and tells Mason and the rest of the team of a remote-like device that controls Makhai’s robot army.

At Makhai’s hideout, the three are able to secure the remote, but when they are pinned down by Darson and his troops and helped by Felton and his men at the extraction point, Felton betrays and kills Ricky, Ted and Greg and takes the remote with him.
