Plot
Ratchet and Clank return to the Solana Galaxy for some rest and relaxation after defeating Nefarious and saving the Great Clock, Captain Qwark, due to taking the credit for Nefarious' defeat, is the new Galactic President of Polaris, and Dr. Nefarious and Lawrence have retreated to an unknown location.

After fixing up Ratchet's garage on Planet Veldin, the duo attempt to restore a Skyburst 8000 speeder. Unfortunately, Ratchet accidently criss-crosses some wires and mixes up the forward thrusters with the undercarriage controls, causing the Skyburst to shoot up into the air. Thanks to Clank's quick activation of a stabilizer, Ratchet is saved from being flung into the atmosphere at the last minute.

Captain Qwark, now the Galactic President the the Polaris Galaxy due to him taking the credit for Nefarious's defeat, arrives in a ship and the three of them go inside the garage to talk. Ratchet then asks him if they have found Nefarious and Lawrence yet. Whilst Qwark says Lawrence did teleport the doctor off the ship before it crashed, but they have so far been unable to find him. Qwark claims his administrators can handle it. The new President then informs the heroes that they have a more serious issue: they seem to be 'losing' planets.

The 3 of them go into Qwark's planet room with Ratchet puzzled as to how a planet could be 'lost'. Qwark simply says that he can't find them, prompting the Lombax to ask what planets were missing. Terachnos, Sargasso, Cobalia, and Aranos were all confirmed to be gone. However, Ratchet wonders why Aranos from the Bogon Galaxy would be affected which leads Clank to believe it is not isolated to just Polaris. Clank then spots something on the planet room map that reffers to something called the "Helios Project" and asks Qwark what it is. Qwark denies any knowledge of it, claiming it's top-secret. Ratchet then turns his attention to Talwyn, wondering if her space station has been affected as well. Qwark confirms she's fine and wonders if Ratchet will go see her. Strangely, Ratchet pauses in a deep thought with a sad expression on his face. He says he's not going to help them, saying he has a lot of work and that someone was coming over to check the Skyburst in the morning and he had too much to do. Clank looks on at him as he walks away with a worried expression.
