Plot
In 2060 England, a large fire has started at a mine. International Rescue are on the scene, and area to helping out the local fire crews into putting out the blaze. Thunderbirds 1 and 2 have landed near a house in the countryside.

Inside the house, a young boy called Chip is all excited that International Rescue are here, and wants to know what they are doing. His father explains that they are going to go down the shaft and brings up the trapped men below. He wants his son to go to sleep, and then leaves the room. After he is gone, Chip stares of his window at Thunderbirds 1 and 2 and decide to explore inside Thunderbird 2

Later on, with the fire under control, International Rescue returns to base. Scott lands Thunderbird 1, whilst Virgil and Gordon are also on the way back in Thunderbird 2. Virgil says that Thunderbird 2 has developed some kind of electrical fault, so John check it out with Brains later on. Thunderbird 1 and 2 lands and reverses back into the hangar.

On Thunderbird 5, John and EOS detects a warning alarm goes off in Thunderbird 2, and John tells Virgil to not release the Module. He gets Alan to go and find Kayo, and to meet up in Thunderbird 2's hangar. Virgil and Gordon can only wonder what is wrong, as appears, holding his Grapple Gun. Scott tells Alan and Kayo to cover the module door. He then has Virgil that there if The Mechanic onboard, he can release the module now. Alan and Kayo are ready to fight, as Virgil opens module 1's door. However, it is Chip.

Kayo blasts at Scott, saying this never should have happened as the Thunderbirds never should have been left unguarded. This boy is a security hazard, and they need to return him to his home but he's seen all of them and knows their location. They've got to think of a way to get him out of here without the boy being a security risk. Scott then finds out Chip is currently being looked after by Virgil. Meanwhile, in Thunderbird 2's hangar, Chip is looking at Thunderbird 2, amazed by the size of it. He asks Virgil if he is the one who gets to fly it, but Virgil says they have very tight security here, he couldn't say. Chip says he understands, and tells him that when he grows up, he wants to be a member of International Rescue. Except he'd like to be the pilot of Thunderbird 1, because he thinks it is the fastest Thunderbird, and the most important one. Virgil says that without Thunderbird 2, none of the rescues would be possible! especially their first rescue.

One year before, After completing Flight School, a 22-year old Scott Tracy go to meet up with his brothers to celebrate his graduation, however it's cut short when Colonel Casey reveal that their father, Jeff Tracy has died in a mysterious plane crash, caused by the Hood. At the reading of his will, Scott discovers that Jeff gambled away the family's estate and will not get of his inheritance until he is ready. The only thing left is a mysterious letter from Mr. X. Due to the loss of the house and Their Ages, Scott, John, Virgil, Gordon and Alan are separated and isolate by their father's Banker, Warren Grafton.

Chip says he wished he could have been there. Alan then enters and says Scott wants a word with Virgil. Virgil leaves, leaving Chip in Alan's care. Chip says he liked Virgil, as he told him all about Thunderbird 2 and their backstory. Alan says Virgil shouldn't have said anything, and he won't be getting any information out of him about Thunderbird 3. Chip excitedly exclaims that Alan must be the pilot of Thunderbird 3, and Alan realises he's just blundered already.

Alan takes Chip to Thunderbird 3's hangar, and they look at the rocket from the very bottom. Chip says this must be the spaceship, and wonders how fast it can go. Alan says he can't say, and Chip says he guesses that Alan, being a spaceman, probably doesn't get to be as involved in the rescue operations. Alan says that's not the case - once Thunderbird 3 is up in space, he's in charge! but Chip correct him, saying that he wasn't involved in their first rescue, forcing Alan to continue the story.

After been separated, Scott is put a attic by Grafton, while John, Virgil and Gordon are sent to a Independent living and Alan
