INT. MIDWAY THE PLASMA WEAPON'S WARM-UP (CG)

The jerry-rigged plasma weapon (similar to the first time we saw
it operate in the Prologue) is bathed energy from Midway's
conduits. It pulses and then... fires!

EXT. MIDWAY (CG)

A SWIRLING BALL OF ENERGY PLASMA flares away from the Midway
toward the transport in the center of the alien fleet.

The BALL EXPLODES and BLUE ARCS of GLOWING ELECTRICITY crackle
across the ship, which EXPLODES.

The heart of the enemy battle group evaporates in a cloud of
fiaminc debris--a mini-nova of amazing force.

EXT. SPACE -- CASEY'S DEVASTATOR CG (IF NOT TOO CLOSE)

Casey's ship outruns the blast and zooms past camera. The
Midway is also badly shaken, but most of the enemy fleet is
spectacularly destroyed. Casey lands safely.

INT. FLIGHT DECK

Where Casey receives a hero's welcome from Maestro, Stiletto,
Rachel, Finley, the CAG, Blair the Captain--all of our principal
characters. They have a brief party, screams of jubilation, as
everyone hugs Casey, slaps him on the back, etc. Ad lib
congratulations all around.

Then FEATURE just Blair and Casey. A heartfelt moment: Casey
salutes him. Blair returns the salute, then offers him his
hand. They shake hands at first...then embrace as the crowd of
PILOTS and TECHS wash over them.
