Plot[]
As Godzilla rampages through a San Diego military base, Gabriel informs Dum Dum that Godzilla is slowly moving towards the base's nuclear missile stockpile. While in Detroit, Jimmy is upset for jumping the gun trying to start a romance with Tamara when she rushes in to tell him that she hasn't seen Robert all day. At that moment the Red Ronin mecha comes to life and starts walking towards a fuel tank. Jimmy has himself lifted up to the robot's head and finds the unconscious Robert inside, removing him from the control helmet which causes its rampage to stop.
When a call comes in for them to use the Red Ronin, Jimmy finds that he cannot pilot the device as it is unresponsive to his mental commands. Robert awakens and he sneaks aboard the robot while technicians work on the device. Finding it responds to his mental commands just fine, he commands it to fly him to Godzilla, where it arrives just as Godzilla reaches the nuclear missile stockpile and is the only thing standing in his way.
