Hokuto and Minami are on patrol in TAC Space, she asks why he has never asked her out on a date, he says he's been too busy. Then they spot a large red meteor falling to earth. Out of the meteor comes a man dressed in purple who transforms into Space Mask. A man who saw the alien informs TAC before he collapses and is carried away by ambulance. Later, TAC's power plant at TAC HQ is attacked by the alien which electrocutes its victims. A couple guards are killed. Space Mask escapes on a motorcycle. TAC Panther follows after him. TAC Panther crashes. Yamanaka believing Mikawa has been killed leaves her to find help. As he leaves Space Mask returns to its human disguise. Yamanaka flags down second TAC Panther with Captain Ryu, Hokuto and Minami inside it. When he takes them to where he left Mikawa's body its gone. The captain receives a radio call that she was taken to a hospital. At the hospital she says Sakai, Jiro the man in purple performed CPR on her.
One week later, Sakai is at a school making a sculpture of a Terrible-Monster for the children and Mikawa is helping him. According to the children the Terrible-Monster is called Black Satan and the argue who is stronger Ultraman Ace or Black Satan. Mikawa shows Minami a toy dog Sakai gave her. Hokuto watching Sakai suddenlly realizes he is wearing the same bracelet as Space Mask. He then tells Mikawa that he forgot the captain wanted to see her at HQ. Sakai causes a socker ball to hit Mikaw knocking her into the ladder Hokuto was standing on so he falls and hurts his leg. Back at TAC HQ, Mikawa doesn't want to hear that Sakai is the Space Mask alien. Kaji has developed a pendent which can monitor blood type, body temperature, etc, Mikawa volunteers to get Sakai to wear it because she believe it will prove he is innocent. Yamanaka tries to get her to take a small, conceable pistol but she says she needs no weapons. No one realizes that the toy dog Sakai gave her monitored everything they said and transmitted it to Sakai. After Sakai pretends to be surprised with his present and actually puts it on, Yamanaka appears at the school offering to help. The Black Satan is completed. The pendent reports to TAQ that Sakai is made of metal and synthetic resin. Because of his leg injury, Hokuto is left at HQ to montor communications. The others head out. Sakai reveals his true form, and then causes his sculpture to spray fire, endangering the children and teachers. So TAC rather foolishly drops their weapons. Which gives Space Mask the chance he needs to cause Black Satan to giant size. Black Satan is controlled by Space Mask. Minami attacks the Terrible-Monster in a TAC Arrow. When she is shot down and ejects Hokuto wants to join the fight. Kaji tries to stop him and both are attacked by the toy dog. Hokuto shoots the dog then leaves in another TAC Arrow. When his TAC Arrow is shot down too, Minami runs towads it and flies into the air as the Ultra Rings flash to meet Hokuto. The Terrible-Monster fires a missile from its tale at Ultraman Ace, missies. When it fires a laser beam from it single eye, Ace creates an energy shield which bounces it back at the Terrible-Monster. Ace seems to have beaten the Terrible-Monster, but Space Mask renergizes it trough his bracelet. As Ace is about to be defeated. MIkawa shoots Space Mask in the neck, sending the alien flying off a rooftop to its death. Ace destroys the Terrible-Monster from a blue lightning like attack from his color timer.
