Summary
Millennium maintains control of the vessel while Integra continues to suffer the incompetence of the Generals. With Sir Penwood's permission, they prepare a plan to get Alucard onto the HMS Eagle.

Synopsis
Rip Van Winkle continues to celebrate her victory over the SAS as she sings another song. Second Movement "The Rising of the Sun is my Fear" from Der Freischütz, a German Opera by Carl Maria Von Weber.

Elsewhere, the military officers continue trying to understand what happened, unable to believe the intel coming in. Integra grows tired of this farce quickly and states that she would do as she sees fit and prepares to leave. The Officers in the room claim that she has no jurisdiction to work on this operation. However, Sir Penwood decides to grant her request to do as she pleases. Integra would leave with Walter by her side.

As they walk, they attempt to formulate a plan. They consider sending him on another warship, but Walter says it would take too long. Walter says to send him on a small strike boat, but Integra says it would get ripped apart by the armaments of the Carrier. Integra suggests an aircraft and Walter reminds her of the missiles and anti-aircraft weaponry. He says they could jam their radar with chaff, but Integra reminds him of the magic bullets that tend to take out anything that flies.

That is when Alucard comes in and takes in the issue before suggesting his own solution. This solution turns out to be the one they use. They grant him a SR-71 Blackbird, the fastest, pressurized plane in the world. Alucard will take the plane on a one way ticket to the ship while three other fighter jets act as decoy via a missile bombardment. As they fly though, not only are the missiles shot down, but so are the three fighter jets. Despite this, Alucard's plane comes in at high enough speed, and Rip seems unable to destroy it with her bullet.
