Galaxy Express 999 - 1x112 Illusion of Youth (1)

The 999 reached its final destination, the planet Promethium. Once on the surface, Tetsuro and Maetel were escorted by Mirai, who brought them to the sanitarium where Tetsuro had up to 24 hours to contemplate his decision on adopting a mechanical body. Maetel warned Tetsuro to think wisely before leaving him with Mirai to meet her father, whose consciousness was encased in a pendant. In the sanitarium, Tetsuro realized that the life of a cyborg was empty and disappointing, and decided not to take his machine body. He also witnessed a cyborg committing suicide and, in his last moments, warned Tetsuro of Maetel's intentions, and that she was the daughter of the Queen of Promethium. In a confrontation between Tetsuro and Maetel, Mirai explained that Maetel was to bring courageous young boys like him to help construct an eternal mechanized empire. The Queen's agents appeared and Tetsuro was arrested for defying the Queen's plans. She ordered Tetsuro and the 999 to be thrown into a nearby black hole. Meanwhile, Maetel's father instructed her to throw him (the pendant) into the planet's central reactor to destroy the planet and Queen Promethium. The plan was thwarted by the Queen, and Maetel was imprisoned. The episode ended with Maetel watching the 999 taking off, which was headed to the event horizon.
