Plot: In the front-line of the Second Bug War in planet Roku San, the charismatic Sky Marshal Omar Anoke arrives with his assistant General Dix Hauser in an starship piloted by his fiancée Captain Lola Beck and they are welcomed by their friend and hero of Planet P Colonel Johnny Rico. While Anoke inspects the facility protected by fences, Dix, Lola and Rico go to a bar to celebrate their reunion. However, Dix has an incident with the local farmers and arrests Rico for insubordination; meanwhile, there is a shut down in the defense fences and the bugs break into the facility. Lola and Anoke escape in the starship, but it crashes in Planet OM-1 and Lola, Anoke, Chief Bull Brittles, Jingo Ryan, Dr. Wiggs and the religious flight attendant Holly Little save themselves in a rescue pod. When Dix discovers that Admiral Enolo Phid has no intention to rescue the survivors in the Arachnid Quarantine Zone, he assigns Rico in the Marauder Program to lead a squad with six other troopers to rescue Lola and Anoke.
Alternative Plot: As newly promoted Col. Johnny Rico (Casper Van Dien) returns to military service, political unrest brings the planet of Roku San to a breaking point. When Rico steps in to protect a farmer from a fellow soldier's violent outburst, he finds himself scheduled for execution. But Rico's life is spared when the Federation taps him to lead a secret mission, sending him on a collision course with the site of a new "bug" invasion -- and his old flame, Capt. Lola Beck (Jolene Blalock).
