3. Hüter des Gesetzes (Guardians of the Law): The first mission of the Orion VIII is a robot story set on a mining colony.

4. Deserteure (Deserters): The Frogs have a mind-control device, but the Orion has Overkill.

5. Kampf um die Sonne (Fight for the Sun): An encounter with a matriarchal former rebel colony.

6. Die Raumfalle (The Space Trap): An outing with a science-fiction author runs into trouble when he is captured by a Mad Scientist who has taken over a penal colony.

7. Invasion: A Manchurian Agent sabotages Earth's defenses and comes close to making the Frog invasion a success. But the Orion saves the Earth (again), and in the end it is transferred back to van Dyke's force, and Cliff and Tamara finally get to kiss.
