Summary
This SuperS episode ushers in a fresh set of villains as the Amazoness Quartet, uneasy at first, agrees to carry on Zirconia's search for the Golden Mirror that could hand Pegasus over to the Dead Moon's control. Their opening target is Momoko Momohara, a close friend of Chibiusa.
Key Events
Zirconia stands before a towering mirror as a woman's figure within instructs her to recover the Golden Mirror, an object turned to gold by the power of the Golden Crystal.

Notes
The installment marks the debut of Queen Nehelenia and the Amazoness Quartet, though at this stage only their silhouettes appear, with Nehelenia given lines while the Quartet is heard only laughing. The attack Orb Shot also premieres here. From this point the Amazon Trio vanish from the opening credits in favor of the new Quartet, and an arcade cabinet in the episode nods to the classic monster Rodan.
