Fifteen years after the war...
...the environment of the Earth has finally stabilized and people are slowly recovering the quality of life they once had.
People survived in groups of 10 to 20 thousand in large scale shelters...
...and those groups formed many independent countries.
The Earth's population is now 98,000,000.
This is less than one hundredth of the population before the war.
But even now, there are still those who are trying to regain their former fame and power.
lmzat, head of the Cartral lntelligence Bureau reporting.
The committee to rebuild the government.
lt is an organization trying to unite the afterwar Earth and found a New Federation.
Most of the members are former Federation citizens...
...former military related people and the leaders of industry.
Newtypes.
We need Newtypes in order to create the new age.
The world will come to realize this...when the Gundam Double X is completed.

At the moment these frozen memories awaken...

...I just wish the future would start.

Holding onto the dream that I once saw...
ryoute de dakishimete
...sometime in the past with both hands...

...never letting it go nor giving up...

...I want to keep believing!

Until I can hold in my hand...
kono te ni tsukamu made
The dream I saw that time in the past.

I'll never forget...the hopes that we had...
oitsuzuketeikitai kara
...I just want to continue chasing after them.
Episode 21 lt's what my dead wife always said.
A month after leaving the North American continent... the Frieden reached the area...
...where someone had supposedly used the laser from the Satellite System.
The area we need to search is huge.
And we can't rely on the map too much because it was made before the war.
All we could do was calculate the approximate coordinates from what Garrod saw.
There is too little information.
ls Tiffa still saying she hasn't felt anything?
Yes.
Even with Tiffa's special power there's no way of finding out exactly what we're looking for.
Tiffa, don't work too hard.
Okay.
It's nothing...err...How should l say this...? You've changed recently.
ls that so?
l can't explain it well, but l feel that way.
You haven't changed.
You're still always being yourself, Garrod.
l think there's a need to expand the area we're searching.
l see.
ls there something wrong?
l have a bad feeling.
The enemy we faced last time wasn't an Orc.
Then...?
l hope l'm wrong...
We conquered the African continent last month.
All we have left is the Asian area, but...
Many smaller countries formed an alliance, and are stronger than we expected.
lt will take more time than we have to conquer them.
Anyway, we need to remember that we need money for a war.
Then, Australia would be good place to start.
We should develop its resources to stabilize its economy.
South America, where the old federation's main base was located...
...is a total mess because of the colonies that were crashed into the Earth.
How about North America?
There's no order and there are many Vultures.
There are only a few big cities.
l thought you were responsible for North America's pacification.
What we should be discussing now is not North America...but the Pacific Ocean.
The former federation pilot, Jamil Neate, is approaching Zonda Epta.
lmzat, it's true that a new Gundam will be needed for the New Federation.
Then, we should immediately...
But they're just a Vulture.
But they have three Gundams from the old Federation. They also have a girl who is quite possibly a Newtype.
lmzat, aren't you thinking too highly of these Newtypes?
What?
Naturally, a Gundam and a Newtype are an effective force.
But a Gundam alone cannot change the world.
What we need is a usable Newtype and a Gundam, as a symbol of great force.
And l've heard a rumor that you were trying to contact DOME without our permission.
lt's just a rumor.
Either way, you failed to salvage the G-bits.
Don't forget about that.
But...
l will send reinforcements.
Zonda Epta is an important facility for our force.
What l am questioning is your ability to command.
Zonda Epta. lt is an old Federation military facility owned by the Committee.
This is the place Jamil and his companions are searching for.
How was the meeting?
l'll tell you later.
lt looks like it didn't go well.
Seems so.
At that time, the Frieden was busy with their search.
GX, requesting to land.
All three Gundams have landed.
ls there anything new?
- No, there's nothing. - l see.
What? Tiffa told you that you hadn't changed at all?
Tiffa was praising me, right?
You idiot! That's not praise by any means!
l thought so.
lt's the same as having said you haven't matured as a man.
- Right? - lt seems so. lf l were you, l'd really be sad.
ls that so?
Of course it is.
This isn't good.
A special operative from the army?
Yes. He's going to command the operation to capture the Frieden.
We're going to be under his command?
lt's the Committee's decision.
Then we have no choice.
But what's he like?
lt'll be easier if you just meet him. He should be here soon.
Where is Kadoc Arzamile?
The Commander is still...
This is absurd. Hey.
l'll test him.
Those who worked their way up are quite different.
l don't mind being under his command.
You pointed a gun at me first. lt'd just be self-defense.
Disobeyed orders in the African campaign.
Shot at a superior in the East lndia campaign.
A very trustworthy record.
You are being too sarcastic.
But, as a soldier, l think he's capable.
First-rate soldiers are faithful to orders.
No matter how capable, if you can't obey orders, you're a third-rate soldier.
lt shows how poorly the Committee thinks of Newtypes.
They're not the only ones who think poorly of Newtypes.
ln fact, l'm not very interested in this.
Don't worry about it. l have no intention of preaching to you about the real value of Newtypes.
l was hoping you'd say that.
Newtypes are the third hardest thing for me to handle after my dead wife and alcohol.
l'd like an explanation.
You didn't fight in the last war, did you. l was in the army even before the war. That's the explanation.
Now, what should we do?
l don't know about him as a person, but he looks like a capable soldier.
Furthermore...
Just by getting these new models, our unit has been upgraded.
They're called Valiants, right?
What l am saying has nothing to do with him. lt's about lmzat.
Are we going to give up on lmzat?
There can be no mercy in order to reach our goal.
l question whether we can still use lmzat.
l understand, Brother.
lf this operation succeeds, we will give up on lmzat.
lf not, then we will continue to act as his followers.
That's right.
Commander, what kind of plan are we going to use?
Since we're going against Vultures, we can't disguise ouselves as their soldiers.
l'm a fisherman who makes a living around here.
But we just got shot up by Orcs. Thanks for the help.
How's that?
- Act like fishermen? - l like it.
l'm glad we're not going with them, Brother.
Seriously.
Now, gentlemen, we need to take a bath before going to work.
What? This is a bath?
Yep. Smells good, doesn't it?
Captain, we're receiving an emergency transmission.
An emergency transmission?
lt seems they're asking for help, but there's too much static.
What're we going to do, Captain?
We can't ignore them.
Captain, they're coming. Just as we planned.
As expected of a Vulture, they responded quick.
Captain, they're going to help us.
Good. Finally.
l'm a fisherman who makes a living around here.
But we just got shot up by Orcs. Thanks for the help.
So you're a fisherman?!
We do it without getting caught by the Orcs.
lt's a risky job.
So that's why they smell like fish.
Really? We just took a bath.
Other than the hole in the side, everything's fine!
lt shouldn't take long to repair!
Can you wait until we fix it up?
Of course. Thanks for everything.
Sara, show them to the guest room.
Yes, sir.
10 minutes until takeoff. All mobile suits, be prepared.
lt's almost time, Brother.
lt seems so.
ls anything wrong?
No, it's nothing.
This way.
Be quiet. Don't move!
Throw away your weapons and surrender.
Hey, come on! What's going on? We're...
- Drop the act. - Too bad.
We already know you came here for another purpose.
Drop your weapons.
How? How did they find out?
Good job, Tiffa.
Thank you.
lf you weren't here, we'd be in big trouble.
Well...
But who the hell are they?
l don't know.
What's wrong?
Oh, no.
Tiffa! Why don't you spit it out?
lf you don't, we'll really fire.
Let's talk and we can both get along. Why did you come here?
Are you from the military?
l don't think so.
The Federation was crushed a long time ago.
Historically, yes.
What do you mean?
Garrod!
The enemy is coming.
What?
- Are you sure? - Yes.
Tiffa felt it. There's no mistake.
l see. That's how they found out.
l don't want to admit it, but l guess l underestimated Newtypes.
Tiffa Adill, huh?
Here they come!
The prisoners escaped?
Enemy units approaching!
l wonder if he's doing well.
We'll do what we have to.
Those freaky Gundams again.
How's the Frieden?
Leave it to Jamil.
Damn. They always come when we're in trouble.
l don't want any hand to hand combat.
l'm a healer, but...
The Captain is chasing the intruders.
Don't let the enemy get close.
Roger.
Captain.
After them!
Commander, here's a weapon.
l'm just a simple soldier.
They're good.
l ain't so easy to get.
What...More of them?
What are these guys?
Their mobile suit quality and the way they fight is different from any enemy before.
Garrod!
Worry about yourself.
Damn you!
l get it. That must be it!
These guys and those weird brothers are from the military.
- Go. - But...
You first, Commander!
This is an order!
Open up! You can't escape!
Escape safely.
l can finally see my wife again.
l have something to ask you.
l can't let him die.
l don't know if you're really from the military, but don't underestimate us!
There!
That kid is getting better.
Brother, look.
The operation failed. Now there's no reason to fight.
lf we report this to the committee, lmzat will regain his power.
l guess he survives.
We'll return to base.
l won't let you escape!
Brother, leave this to me. - All right.
What?!
Dammit!
- Now, Brother. - Right.
Wait! We're to remain here until the Commander gets out!
What if l say no?
What?
There are always errors on the battlefield.
Talk.
What's going on around the world?
"What's going on around the world?"
The Earth Federation is moving again, isn't it?
l don't know.
There are two good things about me.
lt's what my dead wife always said.
l don't drink alcohol, and l get over losses well.
But l have bad things about me, too. That is, l'm a liar.
Goodbye!
It's a grenade!
No!
What?
You have to live!
Tiffa, get away from him!
No! You have to live!
What're you saying?!
l can't let you die!
Are you serious?
Why? Why won't you let me die?
Because you're a kind person.
