After leaving the Argama, Rosamia Badam headed for Gryps 2 airspace.
The Colony Laser at Gryps 2...
...was nearly within range of the Moon's surface city, Granada.
To find a way out of this situation, Granada's Melanie Hue Carbine...
...sent a special envoy to the Argama.
Haman's Victory
- Take Haro away! - Okay!
- All because you brought it here, Qum! - You rascals.
Huh? You're here without permission again?
I'm accompanying Captain Henken.
Captain Bright would like to see you at the bridge.
- See me? - Yes.
What a drag.
We have received written orders from Granada.
- From Granada? - Yes.
All right, I'll go.
What's the matter with Kamille?
Something happened with an enemy Cyber-Newtype.
"Contact Haman Karn and request that they destroy Gryps 2."
What's this supposed to mean?!
Just as it's written. Chairman Melanie intends to do whatever it takes...
...to bring Axis onto the side of the A.E.U.G.
But Haman's Axis is the A.E.U.G.'s enemy!
We don't know if they are our enemy yet.
Lieutenant!
Do you agree with this operation, Lieutenant?
I do believe it's worth a try.
Let's not do this!
Katz!
This isn't up to you to decide!
Yes, sir.
Please tell Chairman Melanie that we comply.
We're counting on you.
Kamille!
Where's Lieutenant Quattro?
- Right. The Lieutenant is...! - Kamille! Kamille!
You can't follow orders?!
Do you two have any idea what you're saying?!
- Emma! Mad! - It sure sounds that way.
This is unacceptable!
It's crooked to ask them to act as a traitor.
That's no different from the Titans, who think nothing of using poison gas.
Besides, who knows when Axis might turn against us again?
I couldn't bear being shot from behind by the Gwadan.
No one would shoot at a mobile suit carrying a white flag!
That's not what I'm saying!
Captain Bright.
Fa, are you of the same opinion as Katz?
- Yes! - I see.
Then you two are to remain in the brig until this operation is over.
But why?!
Ask yourself that question! To the brig, now!
The A.E.U.G.'s just like the army of the old days.
Katz!
Katz! Proceeding to the brig, sir!
Shinta! Qum! Where are your manners?!
Well, they're not the only ones against this upcoming operation.
But if they go about yelling that they're against it...
...it'll affect the crew's morale!
Yes.
All this because we're negotiating with Haman Karn?
That's right.
Depending on how negotiations go...
...who knows what could happen to the Argama.
Lieutenant Emma, I'll go to the Gwadan.
But you're against this upcoming operation as well, aren't you?
An order is an order, and I actually find this operation...
...somewhat interesting.
Kamille.
He seems to have settled down.
Katz and Fa, on the other hand...!
Shinta! Qum! Get out! This is no playroom!
- It's all right! - We're going to stay here with Fa!
Just watch out for the ghosts in there!
There are no ghosts in outer space!
The mobile suit is carrying a white flag.
- It's alone, is it?! - Yes, ma'am!
I'm confirming signal flares!
- Can you get an image?! - Yes!
This is the largest image we can get!
Okay, switch on the guide beacons!
Good!
Typical of... the Zabi Family.
I understand.
But there's no need for you to send a delegation over to the Gwadan.
I will visit the Argama myself to hear your request.
Huh? You will?
I am not that arrogant a person.
I'll return respect for respect.
Very well.
Then I'll be waiting for you on the deck.
Miss Haman.
Are you sure about this?
I'd like to see the inside of the Argama.
Get the Qubeley ready.
Yes, ma'am!
Char Aznable.
I didn't expect him to make this kind of move.
So that's Haman Karn's mobile suit!
- Is it Haman?! - The Qubeley!
They've even completed that one?
The production capabilities of Axis have improved greatly.
So we meet again after Colony 13, Char.
I don't believe our encounters are a mere coincidence.
Our relationship might last forever. That's not a bad thing.
Good answer.
So I take it the A.E.U.G. accepts the revival of the Zabi Family...
...the previous rulers of the Space Colonies.
Captain?
The people supporting the A.E.U.G. are willing to accept those conditions.
If we hadn't accepted the Zabi Family's revival, what would you have done?
Simply stage an all out nuclear attack against Earth.
Axis is prepared to do as much.
If Earth is polluted any further, it will...!
Here's the personal letter from Melanie Carbine.
I see.
So they'll hand Side 3 over to us.
And what do you want us to do?
We'd like to have the Gwadan...
...destroy the Gryps 2 Colony Laser.
I'm overwhelmed to receive such a request from Char himself.
However, there's a problem.
You don't know how to make a request.
Please, Haman Karn. Please destroy the Colony Laser.
I will keep my promise.
The proof of our might will forever be etched in your minds!
If that'll get things done, I can live with that.
Lieutenant.
Don't worry about it.
We'll coordinate ourselves to the movement of the Gwadan...
...and stage a feint operation against the Titans' fleet!
We're sending out all mobile suits!
Yes, sir!
What? Only two vessels?
Yes, we believe they belong to the A.E.U.G.
Certainly brave of them to chase after us...
...but with only two vessels?
Kamille.
Have we caught up with Gryps?
Yeah.
Make sure Shinta and Qum wear suits as well.
I'll keep the door unlocked.
Do as you wish, but we're still not going to fight.
What if you're stuck here unable to escape?!
I don't want Shinta and Qum paying for it!
- Kamille! Hurry! - Right!
You want to go, don't you, Fa?
What about yourself?
I'm not leaving here until I receive permission from Captain Bright!
That's obvious, isn't it?
Rick Dias team, taking off!
Gundam Mk. Il! Emma, taking off!
Zeta Gundam. Kamille, let's do it!
The Gwadan's approaching Gryps 2, according to plan, is it?
Yes, they appear to be cooperating with us.
Lieutenant, the Gwadan has started to move, according to plan.
We're not out of the woods yet.
The big question is from this point on.
Should the Gwadan decide to betray us...!
The Argama and Radish will surely sink.
Surely.
Captain, I'd like to launch as well on the Hyaku Shiki.
No, I'd rather you remain here today.
Our objective is not to fight.
It's to lure the enemy away as far as possible!
Got that?!
Roger!
Zeta Gundam, Rick Dias team, you're to charge at the enemy with me!
Nemo team, spread out and be ready for our second wave attack!
Roger, Lieutenant Emma.
They're here!
It's begun.
The A. U. E.G. is drawing out the enemy.
So Bask is playing right into the A.E.U.G.'s hands.
What an incompetent man.
We'll contact the Dogosse Gier.
What's the density of Minovsky particles?
From Haman's Gwadan?
Yes, they're offering to support us from the rear!
So the information was correct. They are in this area.
Very well!
Tell them we appreciate their cooperation!
Yes, sir!
Which of our battleships is closest to the Gwadan?!
Sir! That would be the Alexandria!
Captain Gady.
Have the Alexandria keep a close watch on the Gwadan!
Roger!
That witch.
Is she trying to sell us a favor?
Captain Gady!
The Gwadan has disappeared behind Gryps 2!
We cannot confirm their position!
Aim for this spot.
Our target is only one of the nuclear pulse engines.
We don't have to make it totally inoperative.
So when the time comes for us to use this Colony Laser...!
You catch on quickly, Captain.
Behind me?!
Lieutenant Emma!
Don't come out unless your suit is fully prepped!
Damn you!
Kamille!
Fa, what's wrong? Fa!
Fa!
Nemo 27 has been hit.
Tell him to retreat! What about our reserve mobile suits?!
We have no more pilots!
I know at least how to move one!
No. Captain, I'll go.
But...!
I won't be reckless.
Is Kamille okay?!
Petty Officer Fa! I thought you were in confinement!
But I heard you didn't have enough pilots...!
Captain, please allow me to launch! Please!
Fa is sensing Kamille.
Okay, I release you from confinement! Get out there!
Y-Yes, sir!
Katz! You go out, too!
I almost went out in your place!
You did, Mr. Torres? That's crazy!
I can't leave this position!
I'm on my way!
Fa! Go get them! Katz! Go get them!
Shoot them down!
At this rate...!
Who is it?!
Kamille!
Come on! You can do better!
Fa! Katz!
It's almost time.
Prepare to fire cannons!
Our target is the Gryps 2 nuclear pulse engine!
Yes, ma'am!
Prepare to fire the first, second, and third main cannons!
The Gwadan has yet to make a move!
What's taking them so long?
We can't wait...
Haman.
Is she working on a strategy to come out of this with the least attrition?
Just a little longer! We've got to withstand this!
Open gun platforms! Prepare for a ship-to-ship battle!
My timing!
Fa! We're outnumbered!
- Avoid close combat! - Roger!
Hasn't the Gwadan made its move yet? We're not going to last forever!
Damn Haman!
Okay, fire main cannons!
The Gwadan... came through?
Gryps 2 has incurred a direct hit?!
We cannot confirm damage!
It's been hit by a beam shot from the Gwadan. No mistake about it!
What?!
What the hell was the Alexandria doing?!
The Gwadan's retreating!
We won't let them get away.
Retrieve all mobile suits! We're going after the Gwadan!
Captain, please calm down!
We must first focus on defending Gryps 2!
You have the nerve to lecture me?!
How am I going to explain this to His Excellency Jamitov?
Our main cannons were aimed at the Argama, right, Captain?!
Yes, ma'am!
Our shot aimed at the Argama went astray, and hit Gryps 2.
What an unfortunate incident.
We are now out of the range of main cannons of the Titans' fleet.
Captain.
We will proceed to our rendezvous point with the Argama.
- Yes, ma'am! - I'll leave you in charge.
Gryps 2's line of fire seems to have shifted.
There has been a change in its course to the Moon.
Haman kept her promise.
The Argama will now retreat!
Withdraw mobile suit team!
Welcome, Char Aznable.
We thank you for your cooperation, Miss Mineva.
Char Aznable.
I am truly grateful to see that you have returned.
I trust that you will continue to serve me.
Yes.
Until the next time.
The Zabi Family will be revived shortly.
Please pray for that day to be good for us all.
Yes.
Miss Mineva. With this, the A.E.U.G. now belongs to Axis.
From this point on, they shall work as your arms and legs...
...all for the sake of reviving the Zabi Family.
And Char made this all possible?
Yes, of course.
I'm grateful that we didn't engage that thing in combat, aren't you?
Yes.
But who knows what might happen in the future.
- Did you get data on the Gwadan?! - I'm working on it!
Don't miss a single turret!
Lieutenant.
Although Haman joined forces with the A.E.U.G...
...in her quest to revive the Zabi Family...
...she decides to meet with Jamitov.
This is all possible because Haman possesses a deadly secret weapon.
During the ensuing operation, Kamille meets Sarah Zabiarov.
Next on Mobile Suit Zeta Gundam, "The Gate of Zedan".
The Gate of Zedan
You will see the tears of time.
