Escape From Side One
We've lost half of our mobile suits.
You're Titans only by name.
Lieutenant Commander...!
Lila's troops are doing better than ours.
Well, actually...!
Defending Jerid?
No, it's just that I'd like you to understand that the enemy was especially skilled.
I don't understand.
I'm not too familiar with the White Base when it was active, but the Argama...
...seemed to be like the White Base.
What gives you that feeling?
At first it looks wide open to attack, but you soon find out it's well guarded.
In particular, the Gundam Mk. Ils look amateurish at first glance...
...but when actually fighting against them, their retaliatory power is incredible.
Lieutenant Commander.
The enemy fleet appears to be headed directly to the Side 4 district.
What?!
Is it entering the debris cluster to try to shake us off?
They could be Newtypes.
Don't be silly! There is no such thing!
Newtypes are imaginary beings created by media hype!
You're making me an official pilot?
Naturally, after seeing your heroics out there.
I darted off on my own...
...so I thought I'd be thrown in a cell for my actions.
You didn't mean it, did you?
Presently on the Argama, we have the GM pilots from the Mont Blanc...
...so we don't need your help right away.
However, I'd like to see how much further we can develop your skills.
So, I'm an experiment for Newtypes.
We can leave that to other research laboratories.
I'm more concerned about your role as part of this ship.
After all, the Argama's a military ship.
A soldier? At my age?
In the previous great war, the White Base had many crewmembers your age.
Besides, there is a drastic shortage of elder soldiers within the Earth sphere.
I'm aware of that.
I'd like some time to think this over.
I'm of the same opinion as Commodore Blex.
I'm very interested in your abilities.
Is it right to send a youngster out to war, just because you're interested?
You're being very critical.
There's no way of finding Amuro Ray's whereabouts...
...by searching the personnel records.
Can't you find the Newtype who piloted the previous Gundam?
That's right.
That's the kind of military the Earth Federation Forces is now.
The souls of the people living on Earth are attracted by its gravity, so they can't fly.
So how's my becoming a pilot going to change anything?
For one, the souls of Earth's people...!
- That has nothing to do with me, does it?! - Do you think so?
Will the Argama treat me with equal benefits of a Lieutenant?
That's possible.
Why did you become a soldier, Lieutenant?
Why a soldier?
I'd like to know.
Because it's the only way I know how to make a living.
That's why I never got married.
The ship has entered the Side 4 district!
We're locking down the residential district.
All crew, change into normal suits.
Be on alert!
I know you're in there!
Open up, Lieutenant!
What do you want?!
You shouldn't need me for anything!
Why'd you stand up for me in front of Jamaican?!
Sorry.
What's this about Jamaican?
I told you I want to lead the Titans someday, didn't I?
To do that, I want to deal with guys like Jamaican alone!
Standing up for me like that...!
Doesn't sound like you at all, the person who lectured me!
I don't think you were listening to what I was saying.
I was talking to him about the Argama.
I wasn't thinking about you one bit.
- I had already heard about Newtypes! - Don't you dare look this way!
Commander, it appears that Gryps has begun its move at last.
I see. Finally.
- And the enemy spaceship? - It's entered the debris cluster.
It's either headed for Side 2 or the Moon.
A mid-sized drifting object detected ahead of us to the starboard!
Move bow slightly!
Above left! A small rock!
Lieutenant Emma has excellent eyesight.
This is the third one!
She isn't a Titan officer for nothing.
Former, that is. Please don't overlook that fact.
At this rate, there's no way of determining whether the Argama...
...is going to Side 1, the Moon, or Side 2!
That's why we should split our fleet into three...!
Lieutenant!
I'm the strategic advisor!
We must repay the Alexandria...
...for the repairs they did to the Galbaldy mobile suits.
We are not Titans, so we will return to the Bosnia...
...pursue the Argama using a different route, and stop them there.
Good idea...
...but refrain from rushing into a battle when you catch up to the enemy.
I heard that you're the type who loves war, Lieutenant.
That's just your biased opinion, Lieutenant Commander!
Very well.
I'll leave you in charge of what to do if you contact the enemy...
...but your main objective shall be to meet up with us.
Yes, sir! Let's go!
- We're moving! - Yes, ma'am.
Lieutenant Lila, you know now, right?
I already knew what Jamaican would say.
Then why did you...?
I wanted to make it clear to you how I dislike those types of men!
Lila!
How about getting together for a drink sometime?
- I'll think about it. - Thank you.
If you become a fine man, I can lean on you and drink.
It'll be nice.
You have what it takes to become a fine man.
Observers, come aboard! Observers!
Come aboard!
- Lieutenant Quattro! - Yes, sir!
- Oh, where's Lieutenant Emma? - For what, sir?
Well, uh... I need a talk with her.
Understood, sir. I'll send her up to the bridge later.
Not yet?! Haven't you found it yet?!
Don't be so impatient.
I guess they aren't heading for Side 1.
I found them!
- Are you sure?! - It's the Argama!
The radar is showing a ship with an identical shape. I'm sure of it.
We guessed right.
Lila, do we stand a chance?
It's hard to tell at this point, but I'll make it for sure.
We'll make it clear that the Titans aren't the only force around.
Thank you very much, Captain.
Well, you see... actually...!
Approaching Colony 30!
This is the colony that I'd like you to see.
It explains why we started our movement against the Earth Federation Government.
Yes, sir.
The Argama appears to have docked at Colony 30.
Colony 30?! That place is where...
It's where the citizens were wiped out because of the operation.
Why should the A. E. U. G. Want to visit here?
Could this be the A. E. U. G.'s secret hideout?
It could very well be the perfect hideout, because of its present state.
I'll check it out. Take a detour and let me enter from the industrial hatch...
...so that I can enter unnoticed by the enemy.
Shouldn't you wait for the Alexandria to arrive first?
Wouldn't it be better if we could advise Lt. Commander Jamaican of the situation?
Well, that's true.
I'm only going to check things out.
Return as soon as you've determined whether or not there's a base there, all right?!
- What's that? - A mummy. A human mummy.
Mummies?
Because the mirror in the colony no longer moves.
Why are the corpses left like this?!
There are too many to bury.
How can anyone kill people like this?!
Because they're not killing with their own hands.
If their hands aren't soiled with blood, they don't realize the pain inflicted.
I guess not.
So, these are the tanks of poisonous gas.
There's electricity. Is the A. E. U. G. using this colony?
Is he a member of the A. E. U. G?!
This colony remains dead.
Which means it'll be the perfect colony for the A. E. U. G. to use as a secret base.
Yes. Shall we make our way to the spaceport?
Looks like we can use this.
Seemingly they didn't even have the time to think of their own deaths.
Lieutenant, you may feel that the A. E. U. G...
...was at fault for staging a demonstration here.
But consider this. If the people on Earth think only about reconstructing Earth...
...and give absolutely no consideration to Spacenoids living in outer space...
...you're naturally going to end up with a rally or two.
All they did was appeal to the government...
...that people must limit their aid in assisting Earth's ability to recover...
...and they only appealed that all humans should live in colonies.
But why did Bask end up doing this?
- Why do you think he did this? - I have no idea.
There's one.
Watch out!
You, in the pilot suit, hands up!
Are you an A. E. U. G?!
You're only a kid!
Why are you wearing that pilot suit?
Why? Well, it's a long story...
Are you a member of the A. E. U. G?!
Kamille, where are you?!
If you say one word, I'll kill you.
Are you a member of the Titans?
No, I'm not!
You'll get lost if you wander off too far.
Why that's... Emma Sheen!
- Do you know her? - Well, yeah.
Could you happen to be...?!
But I still cannot understand.
Why did he overreact like this?
The people of the Earth Federation...
...feared the people who adjusted to their new living environment in outer space.
Because they were becoming Newtypes?
Exactly.
They think of Newtypes as some kind of psychics.
So they're afraid these Newtypes will someday become the ruling class.
Can people kill people for that reason alone?
Sure they can.
One could argue that it's much more reasonable...
...than killing over money.
That's a lie!
Why, you're...!
Lieutenant Lila!
You're lying!
Bask would never think of killing so many people for that reason alone!
Can't you tell by looking around you?
You're being deceived by the logic of the remnants of the Zabi Clan...
...who used to do as they wished with Zeon!
Don't you realize that the Earth Federation is becoming the next Zabi Clan?
What?!
They're trying to keep the Earth to themselves.
That person...!
- It's no use! - Why?!
She must be here in a mobile suit!
- Let's return to the Argama! - Right!
My hunch was correct.
She's quite skilled.
Seemingly, the enemy's here on only one Salamis-class ship!
Three mobile suits!
Kamille will lead the attack, followed by the Rick Dias team, which will support him.
Are you testing Kamille?
I'm checking the abilities of the Gundam Mk. II.
Kamille, get in front of the Argama!
The Rick Dias team will spread to the sides!
Roger!
I'm borrowing Lieutenant Apolly's mobile suit.
Gundam Mk. II, moving out!
Kamille, let's do it!
Okay!
That's... the person we just met!
I wonder if the pilot is that smart-mouthed officer?
Are you Lieutenant Lila?!
That voice... it's the kid I encountered.
Lieutenant Lila!
You heard what Lieutenant Quattro said back there!
Stop the insolent talk!
If you're going to fight, I'll shoot!
He's strong! Has he always been piloting this Gundam Mk. II?!
Detecting light flashes from a battle close to Colony 30!
So Lieutenant Lila guessed it correctly.
This guy is a Newtype!
But he's a kid! He's just a kid!
I'm a regular pilot!
There's no way I can lose to that kid!
Lieutenant, you've lost your cool!
Vanished?!
Lieutenant Commander!
Why won't you send out reinforcements?!
We shall wait for the Argama to use up more of their resources.
At the same time, this will teach you to become a better officer, Lieutenant.
A soldier must have the skills to control his personal emotions.
I'm not about to lose to that little brat!
It's just as I said to Jamaican!
Don't take this guy lightly, Jerid! He isn't just anyone!
I see.
I just admitted that the child isn't just anyone.
And this realization unconsciously turns into antipathy...!
So that's what it means to be an Oldtype...!
Jerid...!
Lila...?!
How clumsy of her!
Stop it! This battle is over!
If you become a fine man...!
Hey! What were you trying to tell me, Lieutenant?!
Congratulations! You are now a full-fledged pilot.
You're really something.
It's way better than winning some mobile suit tournament!
You're the second coming of Amuro Ray!
I agree, Kamille Bidan.
Stop it!
I haven't made the decision to become a soldier yet.
I'd rather remain as I am now...
...for a little while longer.
This boy is sensing something that I cannot...
Jerid tries to avenge the death of Lila.
His Galbaldy enters a desperate battle against the Gundam Mk. II...
...within the gravitational field of the Moon.
Facing Jerid's intense attacks, Kamille experiences an outburst of emotion.
In the meantime, the A. E. U. G. was attempting to proceed...
...with a large-scale operation to break the deadlock.
Next on Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, "The Dark Side of the Moon".
The Dark Side of the Moon
You will see the tears of time.
