Tom, Iris, and Rex go with the teams, however, the troops led by Ichijiku surround them. Suddenly, Tom, Iris and Rex reveal that they've been working for the Party of Words since the beginning. Ichijiku tells that they're Secret Aliens, an international freedom-fighting group that assists revolutioners in times of national crisis. Tom tells them that in the future they'll be able to take down Chuohku, undoing the peace they created and turning Japan back to the times of weapons and violence. Because of that, they have to be sacrificed for the greater good, and Secret Aliens agreed to work with the Party to achieve that.

Meanwhile, the troops corner Fling Posse, as they were to exhausted to fight back. Ichijiku personally confronts them and in the last attempt to get away, Ramuda tries to use the True Hypnosis Mic but Ichijiku disables it with the Canceller.
