Episode Title:The Code.Episode Description:While attempting to procure a phoenix crystal from a phoenix nest, the Storm Hawks have their prize stolen by the Guardians. When their leader, Harrier, suggests that the Storm Hawks could always issue a challenge if they have a problem with that, Aerrow gladly agrees in order to show him who runs the better squadron. However, the Storm Hawks find themselves in a bad position to win when faced with the Guardians' insistence on adhering to proper etiquette, and lose the challenge through technicalities, despite their victories. To make things worse, Harrier hands the phoenix crystal over to the Dark Ace in an attempt to placate Cyclonia. The Dark Ace, of course, does not honor the deal, and the Guardians quickly discover their honorable traditions do little good against someone who doesn't play by the same rules. When the Storm Hawks succeed where they failed, Harrier agrees to take some pointers from them.
