Plot

The entire episode is an archive information video narrated by STORAGE's AI as a recording to the team's exploits during the entire season's run, especially since Ultraman Z's arrival on Earth.

While going through the SAA Units per each models, the AI also mentioned Z's first appearance on Earth and his frequent assistance to STORAGE over the course of the series, fighting against 50 meter class monsters that frequently appearing one after another despite being a rarity in the past. Like STORAGE, Z begins to exhibit newer abilities within each battles and received assistance from various past Ultra Warriors arriving on Earth. As monsters from outer space are far stronger than the ones native to Earth, STORAGE decided to reverse engineer an Alien Barossa's King Joe into their own take of the mecha, where they score their first victory against Grigio Raiden without the need of Z's help. Unfortunately, D4 was introduced as yet another attempt at reverse engineering of alien technology. STORAGE were forced to pay the price with the disbandment of their team after refusing to cooperate with the weapon's testing, and was replaced with SAAG to further elaborate in their newfound weapon.

Unbeknownst to STORAGE and GAFJ, their constant development on weaponries were all planned ahead by the alien parasite Celebro, currently under Yuka Ohta's observation after the past battle. According to Yoko Nakashima, Celebro instills fear into civilized planets to provoke its inhabitants into creating weapons. Once their creation reached its peak, Celebro bid his time to turn said weapon in against their own makers. After sending Grigio Raiden to instigate the creation of SAA Units, he experimented with the Kaiju Medals to create stronger monsters and possessed Director Kuriyama to push the weapons development even further, resulting with the Ultroid Zero. However, another alien was anticipating the events from behind the scenes. Former STORAGE captain Shota Hebikura is actually an alien in disguise who helped STORAGE on numerous occasions. By playing along with Celebro's schemes, "Hebikura" attempted to steal the former's ultimate weapon to himself, but he chooses to save Haruki and sacrificing his ability to become monsters. Celebro used Yoko as his final host when his plan reached its conclusion, using the hijacked Ultroid Zero to evolve into Destrudos and laying waste on cities and the Global Allied Forces.

In order to rescue Yoko, "Hebikura" reformed STORAGE to reclaim their base and formed a strategized attack with available SAA Units. Haruki's resolve provided Yoko the push needed to purge Celebro out and finally extracting her from Destrudos. After Destrudos' destruction, the STORAGE AI concluded the video with Haruki joining Z in their departure to outer space. Although Z had since left the Earth, STORAGE continues their job to protect the civilians.
