The exit from the ship is in the same room the items were in. The one other thing you might want to do is go up a ladder and head to the northeast portion of the grates to pick up a [[Chrono Trigger/Tabs|magic tab]]. After that, go back to the room the items were in, and get your footing while walking across the wing of the blackbird. The turrets are good for 1500 experience points and 100 tech points, so fight them all if you can; they "Self-Destruct" like the Rubbles run away.  When you want to progress, head to the bottom left corner of the wing to fight the Golem Boss.

===Golem Boss & Dalton===
===Golem Boss & Dalton Plus===
The Golem Boss you fight is a joke boss fight. He'll count down from 5 twice, only to do nothing. Then he'll start quivering and talking about how he hates heights. He'll run away if you let him, so go ahead and try to finish him off with your best double techs and single techs, he gives you a fair amount of experience and cash for the trouble.

You'll jump straight from that to a fight with Dalton, which is similarly easy. Just use a few powerful techs, and after casting Iron Orb a few times he'll be history. The epoch will be able to fly, and will blow up the Blackbird after being prompted to press {{snes|Y}}. Your party will insist on finding Crono before you go anywhere, so explore around (the Nu in the middle hut is selling new equipment) and head to north cape. Your party will run into Magus, and you'll witness another flashback explaining the remainder of the events you've seen so far, showing how the three gurus, Gaspar, Melchior, and Belthasar ended up in their respective time periods, as well as Janus/Magus himself. And at this point, you'll have the option to make the first choice which will really influence the course of the game, whether or not to fight with Magus or have him join your party.

If you fight with Magus, if Frog is in your party he'll challenge him alone, otherwise you can take him on as a trio. Frog will turn into a human in the ending if you kill Magus, but Magus will stay with your party and be in the ending if you spare him. For a brief description of how either option affects the two endings you can get at this point, see: [[Chrono Trigger/Endings#The Reunion Ending|The Reunion Ending]] and [[Chrono Trigger/Endings#The Main Ending|The Main Ending]]. Personally I highly recommend keeping Magus in your party, particularly if this is your first time through the game, since he knows a lot of magic which will help a lot. And really, why kill a guy when he just went through all that himself? Whatever your choice is, Magus will inform you that Gaspar the Guru of Time might be able to help you and you'll get Magus's amulet, a gift from Schala if you remember.
