Soldiers from Section 31, in the future, corner a Tazailian Blue Bug that transwarped back in time to RIR by accident. The woman appeared to be in danger but was only being protected after the woman fell and couldn't get up (very similar to the story of a gorilla that held a human boy after the kid fell into the cage). The Bug and the soldiers vanished before anyone knew what happened
Not to be outdone by the German WWII tank crushing cars, a heavy tank from the 24th armored division put on a car crushing demonstration of their own
