The 999's first stop is the planet Mars, a desolate planet where few live. When Tetsuro is provided a tour by a young woman, Freme, her boyfriend Geronimo shoots Tetsuro and steals his 999 pass. Freme doesn't want him to leave without her however, and he ends up shooting her. Tetsuro, protected by money in his coat, shoots Geronimo, who gives back the pass. Tetsuro is shocked to find that both had machine bodies, but chose this fate anyway.
