The year is 1996 - The Cold War has followed humanity to the stars. As part of a program to cultivate the next generation of spacefarers, a group of students is sent to the UN’s Research Base on Mars. Shortly after the students arrive, a blue mechanized assault weapon files over the base with a trio of unidentified pursuers hot on its heels. The facility is destroyed in the ensuing scuffle, leaving only a handful of survivors in its wake. A young man named Eiji appears before the survivors, revealing himself to be the pilot of the blue weapon - the Super-Powered Tracer, Layzner. However, he also comes bearing a warning: the Earth is in danger.

Dinner for Five is a television program in which actor/filmmaker Jon Favreau and a revolving guest list of celebrities eat, drink and talk about life on and off the set and swap stories about projects past and present. The program seats screen legends next to a variety of personalities from film, television, music and comedy, resulting in an unpredictable free-for-all. The program aired on the Independent Film Channel with Favreau the co-Executive Producer with Peter Billingsley. The show format is a spontaneous, open forum for people in the entertainment community. The idea, originally conceived by Favreau, originated from a time when he went out to dinner with colleagues on a film location and exchanged filming anecdotes. Favreau said, "I thought it would be interesting to show people that side of the business". He did not want to present them in a "sensationalized way [that] they're presented in the press, but as normal people". The format featured Favreau and four guests from the entertainment industry in a restaurant with no other diners. They ordered actual food from real menus and were served by authentic waiters. There were no cue cards or previous research on the participants that would have allowed him to orchestrate the conversation and the guests were allowed to talk about whatever they wanted. The show used five cameras with the operators using long lenses so that they could be at least ten feet away from the table and not intrude on the conversation or make the guests self-conscious. The conversations lasted until the film ran out. A 25-minutes episode would be edited from the two-hour dinner.
