The moment I've waited for has come.
To prove that the heroes who died here didn't die in vain!
Gundam Unit 2?! Where?!
The other side of Konpei Island!
For the rebirth of the ideals of Zeon!
For the success of Operation Stardust!
SOLOMON! I HAVE RETURNED!
Eyes drained of their life.
The flames at which they gaze.
Now the time has come to leave everything behind.
All those memories and the pain of the past.
You can't look back at them, and the battle rages on.
Even if lives are burnt to ashes today...
...will people still dream about tomorrow?
It may be destiny, but I wanna get the chance!
In the skies of despair there rages now a storm.
For whom does the future exist now?
A world on the path of destruction...
...with a storm raging through.
The ones who have been chosen are...
Men of destiny!
COLLIDING WARZONES
Is this Stardust?!
Wh- What's that light?!
It can't be! It can't be!
Gato...!
Hey! Kou, wait!
Gato... You did it. You actually did it!
Ms. Cima, it's time.
We have to do this... We've come this far...!
Right rudder, 5 degrees! Combat speed 2!
Battle stations! Let's do it!
This is Kaifon! Where's that fire fightership?!
We need reinforcements at ES-11!
- Can't you use gate #5?! - Someone's left on board!
There's still room in L- 41! Head there!
Help us! This is the Danzig! Help us, please!
It's no use! The emergency hatch won't open!
We're losing our air! Come for us!
Solomon sector is now on emergency alert status!
All garrison ships, use contact code 11!
There's so much wreckage we can't approach!
Can you send out mobile suits?!
- Somebody, answer me! - Field 2E: 42% Field 2D: 61%
My God... To think a Federation mobile suit would do this...
This is all far from over! Now the battle begins!
Change course for Konpei Island! We're going to help them!
It isn't over...
It's not working... The left arm won't move.
Commander Gato! Well done, sir!
It worked out better than we hoped!
This pays us back for the last 3 years!
For those who idle away their time, this must be a nightmare!
Well, later then, Commander.
I'll be waiting at the rendezvous point.
Still, it was almost too easy.
I suppose this is what they call an easy victory.
Right below me!
Gato! Can you hear me?! Answer me!
I know you can hear me, Gato!
You may have forgotten me, but I haven't forgotten you!
That kid from before!
I'll keep following you until we've finally settled this!
Except all you'll do is make my victory even more glorious.
Besides...!
Didn't I tell you before that I've nothing to say to you?!
Did I get him?
No, I didn't! Where's Gato?!
Too slow!
Gato, can't you hear me?!
All ships heading for block 9.
Gate 12 is closed.
Have all remaining ships in S-N gather in L-23.
Damage level in field #7: 87%
Our entire fleet took massive damage, sir.
At least 2/3 of our ships are out of action.
It's all over.
Even with only 1/3 of our forces available to us...
...we still far outnumber them.
Compared to us, they've just played their last ace.
We should transfer the flag to the Tsu Lon, sir.
Also, we should begin patrols and reforming the fleet.
Yes. Get going on it.
Sir, the Albion reports they're on their way to assist us.
Oh, now they do?!
Tell 'em we don't need them!
They'll just be in the way in all this chaos.
Uh... But, sir...
Tell 'em that, since they're an autonomous search and attack ship...
...they should go do something autonomously!
Very well, sir!
You must be satisfied, Gato! But, for us who lost Unit 2...
...we live in disgrace!
I know how you feel.
You've had a taste of bitter experience, too.
Are you listening?! Tune to 5.82!
- I'm listening! - What?!
Hatred is the root of all war. That's common sense!
He always talks down to me...!
But a man who fights me only with hatred cannot defeat me!
Because I stand supported by faith as well!
Shit...!
A man who makes himself a cog in the war machine can't understand!
His left arm isn't moving... All right!
You've improved!
Why...? Why do those two have to fight each other?
Shit...! My main camera!
In the end, you and I value things differently!
Kou...
Not... quite!
Kou!
Commander, get out of there! Hurry!
Kou! Move it!
Shit! I can't use the core fighter!
Your name's Uraki, right?
What...?!
I'll never forget it.
GATO!!!
We've lost the signal.
But Lieutenant Uraki escaped safely.
Why...?
Why must it be this way?
This is Strawberry 9! Strawberry 9!
Now checking out point 1-2-5.
Have visual confirmation on those colonies being moved.
Nothing unusual.
Roger that, Strawberry 9. Continue your patrol.
Roger. Over and out.
What happened at Konpei Island may as well have been a dream.
Things are pretty relaxed out here.
That thing looks like a whale.
A whale?
What the...?!
What's up, Mora? What's the emergency?
Never mind, just come on!
What's going on?
Nina's acting strange.
She isn't herself.
She just mopes around and won't leave her room.
Why? Is it because I lost Unit 1?
Or maybe because, to her, she lost Unit 1 and Unit 2 at the same time?
Maybe it's just that, but...
Anyway, you're the only one who can comfort her.
Now hurry up and go!
This is the Quartz! Anybody, please respond!
Can anybody read this?! This is the Quartz!
Anybody, please respond!
It's no use! We're being jammed!
Delaz Fleet, can't you hear us?!
These colonies are under the control of the Colony Corporation!
Don't you understand?! You're Spacenoids, too, aren't you?
The colonies are vital to our lives! That's why we...
Nina!
Kou...
So, here you are.
It's all over...
The incident involving the Gundams. Everything...
I'm sorry I lost both Gundams.
No, that's all right. I'm glad you made it back.
But, what are you going to do now, Nina?
Nina?
Go to Earth.
I wouldn't mind going to Earth...
If I could be with you.
Something wrong?
No, I'm sorry...
But I just don't think this is all over yet.
Gato...
The way he acted, I think Stardust is still...
Stop talking about that man! I don't want to hear it!
Even if this battle goes on, you've done enough already!
I'm getting drawn into this... It's staining every part of me.
I want to forget, but I can't...!
I'm scared of what's happening to me. So scared...
Nina...
I want to forget... This chill inside me.
This is Lineback 1.
Have arrived at the point where we lost contact with the patrol craft.
Hm, everything looks normal.
What's that?
The Feddies have spotted us! Launch a counterattack!
Damn, they're on to us.
Still, it's too late.
Ms. Cima! All mobile suits have pulled back!
All ships, main cannons, simultaneous barrage!
Fire!
What?! A colonyjack?!
Yes, sir. And they blew two of...
...the colonies' mirrors off at the same time.
What do they want with uninhabited colonies? What's going on?
The only reason I've called you both here...
...is to tell you what I'm planning to do.
The truth is, I don't believe we've seen the true face of Stardust yet.
In other words, the attack on Konpei Island may just have been a prelude.
If it wasn't, then why did Delaz deliver a speech like that?
- Maybe it's a bluff! - I don't think so.
Therefore, I've decided to continue our mission against...
...the Delaz Fleet as Admiral Kowen atJabrow advised us.
Nina, we only brought Gundam Units 1 and 2 to Australia...
...for land-based in- gravity trials because...
...they were the only two that required it.
Nina...
Don't do it! I have no authority over that one!
Then, there's a Unit 3?!
With the lieutenant's experience and Nina's technical support...
Captain! Please let me do it!
No! It's a completely different type!
This ship has already changed course.
We're now en route to the La Vie En Rose...
...which is testing it at point 35-B.
Captain!
Oh, excuse me. Emergency report, sir!
A colonyjack?! But why blow off the mirrors?
The mirrors?
Just one more minute...
If my theory's correct, a colony which loses one mirror...
...will be thrown off balance and develop a rotational wobble.
Eventually, the two of them will...
They'll collide?!
Of course! And when they do, they'll bounce away from each other!
With one of them being drawn in by Luna's gravity...
What?! They're trying a colony drop on Luna?!
I'll tell Konpei Island about this at once!
Captain! We have to change course, too!
We'd never make it from here.
Watch out for the electrical discharge when the colonies collide!
Sir! We've just received word that the colonies have collided!
Combat speed 1! Hurry!
Calculations complete! One of the colonies...
...is definitely on a collision course with Luna!
Dammit!
We still don't know how the situation may change!
For now, we're going to get that Gundam!
All alone in the deep darkness.
On a night that swallows up the road.
Searching on and on for the memory of the brilliant dawn.
There are times when destiny...
...is a wind that tests your heart.
Love is a sky that embraces everything.
And in it is the vision of the new day.
Dreamer...
I should revive that warm heartbeat inside me.
Dreamer...
That frozen dream has begun to shine again.
Evergreen...
NEXT EPISODE
Within fiery plasma, Stardust has awakened.
The moon draws the lonely colony closer.
What is needed now is time.
The Albion arrives at the La Vie En Rose to get Gundam Unit 3.
The hands of a clock which cannot be stopped.
Uraki's heart grows impatient.
With Gundam Unit 3 standing before them...
...the time for Nina to make her decision approaches.
LAVIE EN ROSE
