When his assistant Munson informs him of the unusual turbulence on Earth, Zarkov says this proves he was right and they must both get into his home-made rocket and save the Earth from the space attackers (it is interesting to note that their plan of action is never presented).
Zarkov says the rocket needs another person along so that there is someone to put their foot to the pedal.
Meanwhile Dale is held captive in Ming's bedroom, as he decides to force her to marry him; meanwhile Zarkov is brainwashed and his mind is emptied (sort of like what could happen if you are on a steady diet of watching films like this one).
