The Republic of Zeon was considered a local autonomous body...
...of the Earth Federation Government.
However, in concert with the actions of the Titans...
...they had begun taking actions on their own.
High-ranking officials of the Earth Federation Government...
...had overlooked this mainly because they had little interest in outer space.
Amuro Flies Again
The course is clear. You may take off!
Rosamia squad, taking off!
The Audhumla is presently proceeding north-northwest!
Roger!
We estimate encounter with the enemy in fifty minutes.
Requesting contact with Major Buran.
I recall there being a Titans establishment in this area.
Sure there is, since this is where the United States used to be.
You'll find numerous military establishments on this.
Hmm...!
- Please. - Yes, sir!
Assuming the troops who attacked us at Kennedy Spaceport...
...came after us on the Sudori...!
It would take them at least half a day.
It won't take them that long.
Kamille, have the Mk. II ready to send out on short notice!
Lieutenant, doesn't it bother you at all that Lt. Roberto was killed in action?!
You want to return to space, don't you?
W-Well, sure...!
What we can do for Lt. Roberto right now is to return to space.
Forget your sentiments in war!
A message from the relay station!
Reinforcements are headed our way!
They plan to join us in forty minutes!
Who's the combat leader?
Someone called Ensign Rosamia Badam.
Oh, right. Rosamia from the Augusta Lab.
Is it okay to have her?
Well, with her we already know we'll come out on top.
But with the outcome so predictable, the game loses its excitement.
I couldn't do much for you...
...but if there's anything that worries you, don't hesitate to contact me anytime.
We won't ever be bothering you again!
We can make it on our own!
I hope you have a healthy baby, Fraw Bow.
Thank you.
I'll need to raise this child to be strong.
You're right.
It's almost time.
Let's move to the seats inside.
What more do you expect me to do?!
It wasn't easy to get those tickets to Japan!
I know I'm being watched even as I speak.
They'd capture me before I could do anything!
Amuro...!
Captain!
Remember that you're not going to gain anything by trying to become a child again.
Fraw!
A freighter.
Katz, do you know where Hayato... your father is?
I don't know.
He left to help the A. E. U. G. at Jaburo.
If we can make it to Kennedy, will we have an idea of the situation?
Sure, since there are Karaba crew there.
But it may be in ruins from being attacked by the Earth Federation Forces.
Fraw.
Do you mind if I borrow Katz for a while?
Amuro?
Then I'll go, too!
No.
You two must protect your mother. Especially with the baby on its way.
Mr. Amuro's right.
You guys go on to Japan.
And once the baby is born...
...get a Colony-bound ticket from New Hong Kong.
Flight 30 is now boarding passengers. Will passengers kindly make...
...their way to the boarding gate? - Take care of Mother, okay?
But how are you going to...?
As long as you let me borrow Katz, we men will deal with the rest.
You mustn't worry about it, Fraw.
Amuro, are you serious?
Goodbye, Fraw.
- Don't you need to go to the bathroom? - I do, Pop.
Cheeky boy!
We'll dash to the top of that freighter's ladder!
Yes!
Close the hatch!
We will be taking off according to schedule.
Please check again that your seatbelt is securely fastened.
What?!
- We stopped! - Please wait for a moment...
...while a military plane makes an emergency take-off.
Worried?
A little.
But... only a little.
We're taking off!
But this isn't a runway!
We have the distance! I don't want to get in the way of Fraw's passenger plane!
We're sorry to have kept you waiting.
Have a safe trip!
Stop that passenger plane! Flight 308!
- Wear this. - Yes.
It's as we estimated. The Sudori.
No, it isn't!
That's not Major Buran Blutarch's aircraft.
Is it the A. E. U. G.'s Garuda that took off from Kennedy Spaceport?
Director Hayato.
I thought I saw aircraft shadows below.
There are more residences in this area.
Confirm it. It's an area where civilians are also flying planes.
Shall we have Lieutenant Quattro's mobile suit unit on standby?
Get them ready!
Are we battling in this populated area?
All units, get ready!
As I thought. Damn A. E. U. G.! Choosing this place!
Ignore the mobile suits if they come out!
Our priority is to shoot down the Garuda!
Wait! You'll attack from within!
Despite what he's saying, I wonder if he actually loves war!
Weren't you listening to Lieutenant Quattro's orders?!
Don't leave the Audhumla!
What?
Didn't you hear?! We're attacking from here!
Roger!
I'm going to head straight into them. Everyone else, keep that mobile suit back!
That mobile suit's flying on its own!
A mobile armor?!
It's a mobile armor!
- We'll send out our mobile suits! - It's too late for that!
Damn Kamille!
I'm falling!
We lost one?!
Damage incurred!
This doesn't even count as being hit! Calm down!
- But we could crash into a residential area! - There's no way we'll crash!
At this rate, we're practically waiting to be struck down!
The clouds aren't that thick.
I'll just wait it out!
- Open the fore hatch! - But...!
I'm not about to be struck down while stuck within the Audhumla!
Roger!
I'm not going to be defeated that easily!
A mobile suit?!
A mobile suit on a sled is no match for this Gaplant!
Not letting you!
You're going to die!
What?!
It's because you indiscriminately open fire in a place like this!
I'll crush you!
Kamille is out there engaged in a battle!
Bastard!
Kamille's left? Where is he?
What fool thinks about where they're fighting during a battle?
Who is this dimwit?!
You calling me a dimwit?!
Hurry up and crush me!
I lose.
What did you say?
What?!
Stop talking like some child!
Mine moves a lot better in battles even while descending!
My shield! There's my Dodai!
I told you, I've got the superior mobility!
I got you!
Go down!
Go down!!
I never knew mobile suits like that existed!
Well, now we know!
- But it's retreating! - G-Good!
I got carried away and moved about too much.
I'll need to join the Sudori before this runs out of power!
What a quick switch.
Kamille.
Did he receive permission from Director Hayato for his sortie?
Are you going to "correct" me?
I don't think simply hitting you would improve your personality.
I do realize that I was saved by Lieutenant Quattro.
I'm glad to hear you at least realized that amidst a battle.
You'd better be grateful.
Yes.
But Director Hayato, that's not all.
I was being pulled by that transforming mobile suit.
Are you making excuses?!
No, sir.
Excuse me, Director Hayato.
I can verify what Kamille just said.
Then I shall hold back this fist.
We came across a mobile armor back when we rescued Captain Bright.
This one was very similar. Wasn't it, Kamille?
Yes, I felt great danger.
Thank you for bringing us in.
It couldn't be helped.
You're obviously not used to operating the Gaplant.
I suggest you get used to it through this operation.
Yes, sir.
However, you've helped out by delaying the Audhumla.
I'll send out a second wave immediately.
They wouldn't dream of a second attack right away.
No, sir.
Use my people for your repairs.
I've sent a crew out to retrieve your booster.
Thank you very much.
Don't you have difficulty breathing at this high altitude?
My lungs have been enhanced, sir.
I'm all right.
That's good to hear.
Rosamia Badam.
She seems to be almost manifesting the abilities expected of her.
Has she successfully become a Cyber-Newtype?
I'm going!
It could be the guy from earlier!
It's dangerous to confront them alone. We'll strike from both sides.
Yes, Lieutenant!
Okay!
Another enemy attack!
That's right! The same guys that attacked Kennedy!
They're back too soon!
I won't allow it.
Enemy locked on!
They've got us?
Director Hayato! Increase altitude!
What's that?
So, those flashes were from a battle after all.
Here we go, Lieutenant Quattro!
That's Father's voice.
He's on that!
Space aliens would've been better off staying in space!
Kamille, don't let it get above!
We've got our limits.
Roger, I'll go around its right.
No matter what!
I'm taking that mobile suit down.
Mr. Amuro?
Katz, escape on the Homo Avis!
- Hurry! - Y-Yes!
Cartridge!
Right there!
You won't hit me!
That's the best you'll do with the scatter shots!
What's that freighter doing there?
I'll end up hitting the Audhumla!
What's going on?!
What are you up to, Amuro?
Amuro...?!
Stay back, Char!
You're going down, A. E. U. G.!
Damn!
What?!
All units, retreat!
There's a person!
A Gundam... Mk. II...!
I've never seen that mobile suit before.
Is it one of the A. E. U. G.'s new models?
Amuro...!
That's Amuro Ray...!
I said Char...
...didn't I?
I hope you're okay.
I'm fine, thank you.
That's Char.
However...!
No question about it.
That's Amuro Ray.
Char...!
Just before the Audhumla reaches Hickory, Rosamia's Gaplant intercepts it.
Katz dashes out to face this, motivated by Amuro's indecisiveness.
Kamille and Char take off to rescue the Gundam Mk. II, piloted by Katz.
Next on Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, "Katz's Sortie".
Katz's Sortie
You will see the tears of time.
