Synopsis for "Winners Never Quit"

In the San Fernando Valley in California, Hardcase and The Squad fought against the NM-E, with himself being the last team member standing. One of his teammates D.J. Blast, who lost his legs, urged Hardcase to take Starburst and abandon him. Hardcase did as he said, as D.J. Blast killed himself in an explosion. Sometime later, Hardcase visited Starburst in a hospital and the doctor told him that she wasn't expected to recover.

Fifteen months later, Hardcase was shooting a movie. After shooting, his co-star Justin Kuttner expressed his dissatisfaction with having less dialogue than him. After their conversation, a police officer named Jamal Brown asked Hardcase to sign his poster and when he would return to his heroic duties. Meanwhile, Nicholas Loane attempted to withdraw money from a bank when the criminal Head Knocker entered.

Officer Brown received a transmission regarding the robbery and rushed to assist, while Hardcase stayed to shoot more scenes. While the police attempted to take down Head Knocker, Hardcase continued to act, until deciding to help defeat Head Knocker, much to the annoyance of his director Darren Doane. Hardcase fought Head Knocker, eventually defeating him and learning that he became an Ultra at the same time as himself and the rest of The Squad. This lead Hardcase to announce his return from retirement.

Meanwhile, Rex Mundi, who had sent the NM-E, monitored various Ultras from many screens.
