Was the meeting between Sarah and Kamille the mark of an ordinary friendship?
Or were they two Newtypes who resonated with each other?
Not even these two know for themselves.
Having escaped the explosion in Von Braun...
...the Argama left the Moon...
...without even the time to repair its damages.
Unidentified Mobile Suits
I understand what you're saying, but...!
Then we'll proceed straight ahead.
But the Argama's damaged.
Are you saying we should return the Argama to the Moon, Lt. Quattro?
Exactly.
Then I have nothing to discuss with you!
Mr. Wong!
My opinion is also the opinion of Chairman Melanie Hue Carbine!
If you can't obey him, I'll have to do something about that!
If we return to the Moon now, the Titans will make contact with Axis.
I know that.
We have no choice but to proceed as Mr. Wong says.
Is it true that Axis is a space fortress built by remnants of Zeon?
Yes.
And not even I have a clue whether they'll side with the Titans or the A.E.U.G.
It's been a while since I left Axis.
How strong a fortress is Axis, anyway?
- Come here, Haro! - Over here! Over here!
Got you!
- Hey, this is my handkerchief! - Haro ate it!
- You're lying! You hid it, Shinta! - I did not!
- Yes, you did! - No!
Stop it!
Fa is in her element.
Mr. Wong?
Are you done prepping the Gundam, Newtype?!
No, sir.
Then get your ass to the deck!
Y-Yes, sir!
Ouch!
So, these two are the ones?
The two that Lieutenant Quattro brought from Earth?
Yes.
What was he thinking?
Do you want some?
No, I don't.
Children should be more honest with their feelings.
Here, accept it.
Go ahead and accept it.
Okay! Thank you, sir!
Thank you, Mr. Wong.
- Aren't you eating? - Lieutenant Quattro.
I'm not hungry.
Would you care for my drink?
I'm sorry.
No problem.
E-Excuse me.
Something seems to be wrong with Miss Reccoa.
I can't put my finger on it since I'm always with her.
Have you noticed anything about her, Lieutenant Quattro?
- Kamille. - Yes?
For one to delve into another's heart, one must have the appropriate experience.
I'm well aware of that!
You have that experience, Lieutenant Quattro!
Do you think so?
It's so easy to grow old not realizing such things...
...and hurt someone as a result.
How is the Argama proceeding?
It continues to proceed at a low speed toward the object that left Axis.
- Thank you. - Yes, sir!
You've met Lieutenant Yazan of the Alexandria, have you?
Yes, sir.
Tell me what he's like.
Y-Yes.
I'd like to hear your impression.
He's mean and brutal, like a beast.
A beast.
That's accurate.
That's good. Standby for orders.
Yes, sir!
The Dogosse Gier is approaching us?
Yes.
It's sailing exactly parallel to us.
There's no mistake about it.
There seems to be no intention for battle.
Are they trying to beat us there?
What did I tell you?! It's just as I said!
The Titans also intend to make contact with the people from Axis.
Captain! Attack them at once before they have a chance to attack us!
We have no information on the Axis ship we're trying to contact.
At this point...!
We'll wind up in a battle no matter what. We've got to attack first!
However...!
How about giving it a try, Captain?
Lieutenant!
Do you have a strategy in mind?
I'll need a little time to get ready.
- How much time? - Thirty minutes should do.
It'll take you a full thirty minutes?!
You want to crush the enemy, don't you?
Bring in the crew working on the exterior of the ship!
We're entering level two battle stations!
We're in a level two battle station!
Lieutenant!
I'm sorry.
I'll head to the briefing room right away.
No, I came because I wanted a word with you.
Lieutenant Quattro.
They're working on upgrading the Hyaku Shiki's Mega Bazooka Launcher.
Right.
I need a mobile suit to come with the Hyaku Shiki as its energy tank.
And you want me to pilot it.
It's a dangerous mission...
...but I'd like you to do it.
Sure. I'll do it.
Why are you putting away your plants?
I'm growing sick of their messiness.
Why, I wonder?
I can't really pinpoint it myself.
Perhaps there's no reason.
But it's not as if I feel refreshed by getting rid of them.
What are you suffering from?
- I wonder...! - Don't you know?
No.
Is there anyone who truly knows everything about themselves?
Probably not.
That's why, all I know...
...is that I want to throw everything away and go away somewhere. That's all.
But you won't be able to.
People are unable to throw away the baggage they carry...
...until they die.
I understand.
Do you ever cry, Lieutenant?
- Sure I do. - I doubt that.
It's true.
We're attacking in fifteen minutes.
Don't be late.
- I'm going. - Kamille!
What's he upset about?
Are you sure about this, Ensign?
Not to worry, I'm fine.
Ensign...?
I'm not a child, you know.
The Hyaku Shiki and the Gelgoog, ready for take-off!
Okay, mobile suit team, take off!
Quattro Bajeena! Hyaku Shiki! Taking off!
Reccoa Londe! Gelgoog! Taking off!
Sending out the Mega Bazooka!
- Okay, Zeta?! - Okay.
It's the Zeta! Kamille, go get 'em!
Kamille Bidan... Let's do it!
Shooting out Mega Bazooka Launcher!
Ensign Reccoa, let's go!
Go ahead!
Can they really destroy the Dogosse Gier with that thing?
With Lieutenant Quattro handling things, it'll happen.
How's the Hambrabi, Lieutenant Yazan?
- I don't like it. - Really? Why's that?
I feel an unfamiliar power.
I don't like the feeling.
The reason you feel that way is because you've had it easy up to this point.
I've had it easy?!
Battles cannot be won on strength alone.
You realized the need for more, and that's why you came to the Dogosse Gier.
Am I right, Lieutenant?
You feel at a loss with the atmosphere on the Dogesse Gier because...
...this ship is lent an extra power due to my influence.
I admire that way you feel things, Lieutenant.
It gives me a sense of your potential.
Paptimus Scirocco, you're an interesting man.
Enemies! Approaching from forty degrees starboard!
- How many?! - Six! No, there could be seven!
Six or seven?!
Wait, Yazan!
Can you feel it, Sarah?
I think I recognize it.
- Are they from the Argama? - I can't be certain.
Captain, send out the mobile suits. I'll leave you in charge.
- Yes, sir! - I'm going, too!
Hold on, Lieutenant Yazan.
You should go out only when really needed.
I don't intend to treat you like the other pilots.
That's good to hear, Scirocco.
- I'll be waiting on the deck! - Right!
Mr. Paptimus and Yazan.
They've met for the first time, yet...!
I'm surprised how well they're getting along.
The Hyaku Shiki and the Gelgoog are leaving the formation.
All mobile suits...
...keep a distance from the Mega Bazooka Launcher's line of fire.
Roger!
- Ensign Reccoa, ready?! - Yes!
How many of them are there?!
Send out the second wave!
There aren't too many enemies, but they've spread out!
Anti-air observers, stay alert!
Well. More or less as I expected.
Our target is large, but...!
- Ensign Reccoa, let's do it! - Yes!
Energy, at eighty-five percent.
The problem is, with such a big target...
...one shot isn't going to cause it fatal damage.
What?! What's this pressure?
Paptimus Scirocco!
I missed?
Energy at fifteen percent.
One minute before we can fire our next shot!
Three more shots.
Evasive action!
- We hit it! - Good!
Lieutenant! Get the Dogosse Gier!
Thanks, Apolly.
Ensign Reccoa, how's our energy?
Forty percent.
The Dogosse Gier appears to be damaged.
Way to go, Lieutenant Quattro! Keep attacking and destroy them now!
He's way too optimistic.
Damage on the A-Block deck!
The weapon used by the enemy is thought to be an upgraded launcher!
We have no details on it!
It's the one they used when I attacked the Temptation.
I don't like it.
Mr. Paptimus.
What do you think, Yazan?
Yeah, I'm going.
Use your perception in a new way.
- Can you do it? - I'll give it a try.
Mr. Paptimus, I'll go, too.
It's okay, Sarah.
You aren't interested in joining Yazan in the battle, are you?
No, not at this time.
Then you two would frustrate each other's feelings.
Stay behind on this one.
Hambrabi! Taking off!
The enemy's got great instincts!
This is going to be fun!
Ensign Reccoa, thanks for your help.
- Return to the Argama. - Right!
Be careful!
He was saying that Scirocco's there.
I can sense Scirocco.
Ensign Reccoa! Where are you going?! Get back here!
Thanks, Kamille.
If you can't fight, return to the Argama.
I'll do that.
What?!
How dare you!
I'm amazed you're still alive, Kamille.
It's you!
This isn't good! I'm in an awful position! I'm a sitting duck!
Bastard!
I guess this Hambrabi is faster than you are!
Damn it! The vernier's damaged!
I win!
Out of bullets?!
What's this?!
Kamille, are you all right?
Ensign Reccoa!
This sensation.
I feel a pressure unlike any other.
Who is it?!
Mr. Paptimus is strong.
He picked that up in the midst of all these swirling thoughts.
I'd better get used to this.
There are ten enemy mobile suits deployed in the Argama's vicinity.
Don't we have any more mobile suits of our own?!
We only have the Methuss!
Why won't you send it out?!
We have no one to pilot it!
You have that girl! Fa, was it?!
No!
I will never use her as a pilot again.
Miss Reccoa, please escape!
Don't worry about me! At this rate, we'll both be killed!
I can't leave and let you die!
Fight, Kamille!
Miss Reccoa!
Say your prayers!
Wh-What is it?!
Kamille!
What's that?
What in the world?
Those mobile suits.
Pull back our mobile suit teams.
- Dogosse Gier, retreat at top speed! - Yes, sir!
So, the luck of the times has not shifted yet, I see.
Mr. Paptimus.
How can you be so casual about this?
Although it's a coincidence...
...there's always a greater reason behind an incident like this.
Y-Yes.
It could alter the tides of history.
There's no way we can prevail if we go against such a thing.
But that's not like you, Mr. Paptimus!
We'll win in the end.
Captain!
Tell the mobile suits to retreat at once!
We'll observe the situation!
The Zeta Gundam and the Gelgoog have been retrieved!
Miss Reccoa!
Miss Reccoa, thank you so much.
I'm glad I had the opportunity to return the favor from Jaburo.
But what were you doing in that area?
The Gelgoog isn't equipped with any weapons, is it?
I was able to help you, so let's leave it at that.
No, that won't do!
- Let go! - Ensign Reccoa!
I need to keep some things only to myself.
I don't like you probing into them.
Reccoa Londe.
- What's wrong? - I don't know.
Kamille!
Were you scolded by Reccoa?
No, he wasn't!
I've ended up returning again.
Is that woman piloting that mobile suit?
Char is shaken at the sight of Haman Karn and Mineva.
His ensuing actions cause danger to Kamille and the others.
On the Argama, running away from the Gwadan...
...Char weeps, realizing the inescapable depth of his own fate.
Next on Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, "The Messenger From Axis".
You will see the tears of time.
