Robotech - Season 1 (1985)

Trapped in the bowels of the SDF-1, Rick and Minmei struggle to survive as they face certain starvation.

While Roy attempts to convince Rick to enlist, the crew of SDF-1 is forced to spectacularly improvise to ward off an attack.

Flush with their ship's new capabilities, Captain Gloval decides to take the offensive.

The SDF-1 lands on the abandoned base on Mars for resupply, unaware that the Zentraedi have arrived and have prepared a trap.

On Minmei's birthday, the newly decorated and promoted Rick Hunter finds himself too occupied adjusting to his new squadron under his command to celebrate it with her.

Rick is ordered to go on patrol, but can't resist watching Minmei in a beauty contest only to find a Zentraedi scout crew who are completely flummoxed by the spectacle themselves.

When the SDF-1's radar is disabled, Commander Hayes goes on a survey mission, and the Zentraedi are waiting for her ship.

While Lisa, Rick and Ben are interrogated with strange results for both sides, Max sneaks on board to rescue his comrades.

As the human prisoners attempt to escape, more secrets of the Zentraedi are discovered.

Upon hearing Lt. Hayes' report, Capt. Gloval decides the ship must return to Earth, while Zentraedi spies are having difficulty infiltrating Macross' incomprehensible civilian society,

With the SDF-1 on Earth, Capt. Gloval records his report of the events before their return to the planet.

With the SDF-1 on Earth, Rick and Minmei and Capt. Gloval and Lt. Hayes go out for separate appointments, only to have less than positive results upon arrival.

As Macross City goes up in arms at being denied disembarkment, Kyle Minmei makes a considerable impact both in the city and with Lisa Hayes.

In a coma in sickbay, Rick has his latent anxieties given life in troubling dreams.

The supreme ace of the Zentraedi fleet accepts a challenge by Khyron to find and duel her counterpart of the Micronian forces.

Gloval's attempt to disembark the ship's civilian population is interrupted by Khyron's attack with disastrous results.

After the disaster in Ontario, the SDF-1 is ordered to launch into space as a practical exile.

Temporarily isolated together after the ship goes into battle mode, Rick and Lisa have an increasingly friendly and revealing conversation.

Commander Breetai outwits the SDF-1 crew and his forces board the ship.

After the Zentraedi invaders are driven out, the crew of the SDF-1 find themselves dealing with defectors from that race.

As Miriya searches for the hated enemy ace, Lisa decides to go Earth Command to show the startling new findings about the enemy.

Max and Miriya finally duel openly, leading to a sudden wedding which proves more valuable for the ship's survival than anyone could have expected.

With Breetai's fleet now thoroughly contaminated by Human culture, Exedore is sent to the SDF-1 as a peace envoy.

The grand fleet of the Zentraedi bombard Earth and devastate it while the crew of the SDF-1 and its Zentraedi dissenter allies prepare their retaliation.

After two years of reconstruction, Rick finds his life complicated by Zentraedi malcontents and his own complicated feelings for both Minmei and Lisa.

In some faraway spot in the galaxy, the Robotech Masters find indication of a giant battle that has taken place in the vicinity of the Earth. They feel this might be the location of their lost protoculture factory.

RDF troopers go on a mission with Breetai to capture a Zentraedi factory station, and Max and Miriya's infant daughter is the key to the operation.

As the Zentraedi's past is revealed to RDF command, Kyle Minmei's resistance to a military guard of the last resizing chamber backfires disastrously.

While Lisa waits all day for Rick to come for a date, Rick is sidetracked by Minmei and a Zentraedi Malcontent attack.

Finding Lisa depressed at Rick's disinterest in her, Claudia puts her feelings into perspective by telling the story of her relationship with Roy Fokker.

Minmei tries to become part of Rick Hunter's life again after returning from her tour of the frontier. It is a situation complicated by Rick's growing concern for Lisa and his final realization of his duty as a soldier.

At Christmas time, Rick and Lisa's personal life is disrupted still more by a desolate Minmei while Khryon has a violent surprise of his own.

Lisa's final visit to Rick before leaving on a space mission under her command becomes unexpectedly dramatic thanks to both Minmei and Khyron.
