Jerid's Desperate Attack
Don't you think the A.E.U.G.'s focusing too much on defense lately?
Aggressive tactics will reinforce the false perception of the A.E.U.G. as terrorists.
You're aware why Axis has begun its move, aren't you, Lieutenant?
No.
I don't believe a man formerly with Zeon wouldn't know why!
Mr. Wong.
He's here.
Come in!
Are you saying that Axis, the asteroid base that Zeon remnants use...
...has arrived in the Earth Sphere?
Yes.
So the lieutenant intends to make contact with them...
...and have them ally with the A.E.U.G?
Yes.
Is it possible?
If we can use the Argama in the process.
I'll get them to come!
Lieutenant Quattro, what are your true feelings about this?
Do you believe remnants loyal to Mineva, a survivor of the Zabi Family...
...have honorable intentions?
Talking couldn't hurt. It would be worth a try.
Yes.
Yazan team, taking off!
Your course is clear! Go ahead!
I already know that!
Why have we been taken off this latest operation?!
I haven't taken you off.
I want you two to take separate actions from the rest.
Captain!
I want you two to standby in this abandoned Colony.
The Argama will surely escape to this area to avoid anti-air firing from our fleet.
And you'll ambush them there.
Will it be that simple?
Sure it will.
If I was the Argama's captain, that's what I would do.
So Yazan's team is a decoy?
That's right.
Unless we keep him in the dark...
...he wouldn't agree to it, would he?
Once we sink the Argama, the Zeta Gundam's pilot will be shaken.
That would be your chance to destroy the Zeta.
Very well.
I'll sink the Argama together with the Zeta Gundam.
That's the spirit.
I'm counting on you, Lieutenant Jerid.
And you too, Ensign Mouar.
Nothing I say will make any difference, will it?
I've become a man who cannot move a step forward before defeating Kamille.
To me, he's a wall blocking my way.
Isn't it dangerous to be obsessed like that?
Mouar.
Remember, Jerid.
I'll always be there behind you.
What?
You're fast, Mouar.
Ensign Mouar Pharaoh, taking off!
Lieutenant Jerid Messa, taking off!
Fa! Let's play!
You shouldn't be here!
Come on, Fa!
You'll be scolded by Mr. Astonaige!
Fa! Get mad! Fa!
Nobody will play with us!
- Why not play with them? - I don't want to spoil them!
But a war could break out any time.
I must give priority to my duties as a pilot.
Leave the piloting to me.
Kamille! Fa!
Come up here at once!
Captain Bright?!
Don't you realize that this isn't a daycare center?!
I'm terribly sorry.
But, Captain...!
Don't talk back to me!
Just do as I say!
I understand, sir.
Bright! Mad! Mad!
Bright, mad!
Bright! Mad!
Get back to work.
Bright! Mad!
Those children think of Captain Bright as a playmate!
Kamille, wait!
Listen, we'll wait until the last possible moment.
In a surprise attack, everything depends on the first assault.
I know.
Mouar?
Yes?
Don't try too hard.
There's no need to worry about me.
Thank you, Jerid.
We're entering the battle zone.
- All units, don't fall behind. - Roger!
That Jerid...!
Isn't he in bed sulking about being omitted from the team?
I expected him to have a bit more guts.
There it is! It hasn't retreated. I respect that.
Enemy mobile suits approaching!
Ten degrees above on portside!
The number: Ten! No, twenty?!
Portside gunners, get ready to fire! Everyone, fire back at will!
All units, take level one battle stations!
Zeta Gundam, let's do it!
Nemo, taking off!
They've sent out mobile suits, so there won't be any anti-air fire from them.
- Shall we turn back? - Are you crazy?! We'll proceed forward!
Yes, sir!
Survivors from the last time? Is Lieutenant Jerid among them?
Kamille, aren't they acting strangely?
Yes, it's as if they're waiting for us to make a move.
Enemy approaching from 45 degrees below, portside!
What?!
From below this time?! Observation unit, where are you looking?!
All vessels, open anti-air fire!
Don't hold back! Keep firing!
Second wave coming!
Keep our distance from the Radish!
Lieutenant Emma! I see firing lines behind us!
Is it a separate enemy squadron?!
I'll return!
Kamille!
Fa! You have no need to go!
Lieutenant Apolly!
They're here!
We're heading right in!
Is what Gady said really going to happen?
We'll move into the abandoned Colony ahead of us!
- But...! - It'll be the perfect place to regroup.
Roger.
We've sent out every one of our mobile suits.
I've played right into the hands of the enemy.
How careless of me!
Jerid!
Yeah, Gady's a genius.
- Let's go! - See you later!
Yeah, later.
You're finished, Argama!
Captain! Enemy mobile suits!
What?!
Anti-air battery, fire! They're firing!
Call back our mobile suits! Fore barrage is weak!
Microwave receiving panel damaged! Get more fire extinguishing fluid!
Living quarters hit!
Section of the left catapult deck damaged!
What are the gunners doing?!
- The Argama's being bombarded! - Proceed forward!
Gunners, our barrage is weak!
A powerful mobile suit is coming at us from fore!
The Argama's...!
Someone's approaching!
How dare you!
You've come to get in my way again...
Jerid?!
...but all the luck's with me! - Shut up!
Jerid?!
The Mk. II?!
Why can't Yazan keep the enemies occupied!
It's Emma's unit! Emma has returned!
What about the other mobile suits?!
- Hurry with the extinguishing fluid! - Out of the way!
This isn't enough!
- We also need scramble balloons! - Yes, sir!
- Is the oxygen supply device all right?! - Y-Yes?!
Check it out at once!
As I said, luck is favoring me!
Not yet!
He's like a different person!
Is this really that same Lieutenant Jerid?
What was that?!
Those children!
Fa, join me! We must protect the bridge!
Argama, you're as good as dead!
Where are you guys looking?!
- I'm worried about the children! - Fa!
There's still smoke in the living quarters!
Has the fire been extinguished in the portside living quarters?!
Put out the fire from the outside as well!
That mobile suit!
Fa! Hurry!
Haro?!
The Argama's in trouble!
Can't wait until things are getting worse.
Kamille!
There's another one!
Fall!
There's no getting away!
Jerid!
Fa's Nemo!
Radish! Cover for the Argama's portside!
If it's hit again, the living quarters will be gone!
Roger that!
Shinta! Qum!
Oh, Fa!
There's nothing to worry about!
We'll escape together!
Watch out! Don't go that way!
What?
What the hell?!
There!
- Kamille! Above you! - What?!
Kamille!
Jerid?!
Damn!
Mouar?!
Zeta!
Y-You're using yourself as a shield?!
H-Hey! Mouar!
I said I'll be there to protect you, Jerid...!
Mouar!!
Kamille!! Bastard!!
Wh-What's this? This sensation?
I heard Mouar... Mouar?!
Why do you have to always...?!
I don't want to die yet either!
Jerid... Jerid.
Where am I? Have I died?
Mouar!
Jerid, you will never lose.
Because you are the one able to guide this world in the proper direction.
That doesn't really matter!
I only... want to grasp everything with my own hands!
To survive.
To fight.
That is the correct path for you.
But if so...
...then why do you also have to leave me?!
M-My arm.
It's numb!
Mouar!
Okay, Mouar! I can do it!
What?! Can he still fight?!
What in the...?!
- It's headed straight for us! - Captain!
We'll leave it to Kamille and Emma!
Emma!
He's still coming?!
The guy's gone berserk!
I know!
M-Mouar!
I-I can't do it!
We're retreating, Gady?!
How could he have lasted for so long?
Jerid... Messa...!
Fa! Wake up, Fa!
Fa!
Hey, there they are! This way!
Mouar?
Where are you?
H-Hey!
Lieutenant Emma.
Excellent job in protecting the Argama.
I couldn't have done it if it wasn't for Kamille keeping the enemy occupied.
Lieutenant.
Oh, and please don't be too hard on Fa Yuiry.
Lieutenant Emma.
But Petty Officer Fa disobeyed orders during a battle.
I don't believe we can solve this problem just by "correcting" her.
Then she doesn't have what it takes to be a pilot?
Is that what you're getting at?
That decision is up to you, Captain Bright.
Fa.
Good job in saving the children.
I personally thank you.
Also for keeping the damage to the living quarters to a minimum.
Captain Bright.
Th-Thank you.
Fa!
You look well! I'm glad!
It's because you were here with us.
Thank you, Fa.
But... I know what I saw...!
Those who are dead don't shed tears.
On Scirocco's orders...
...Sarah Zabiarov sneaks into Von Braun City on a secret mission.
The tricks of fate cause Kamille and Sarah to meet once again.
In the meantime, the clock on a time bomb ticks toward disaster, close to the Argama.
Next on Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, "Half Moon Love".
You will see the tears of time.
Half Moon Love
