The Gundams' target is OZ, who had masked its identity within the mobile suit troops of the Alliance Military. The Gundams had a number of missions to attack OZ. The year is After Colony 195. OZ has finally taken center stage. With an army of elite soldiers at his command, Treize Khushrenada carries out his plans to destroy the Alliance Military. The battle between the mobile suits sent to Earth and OZ, causes the Earth to shudder violently. | The attacks by the Gundams sent by the Space Colonies reflected the colonies' retaliatory intentions.

| Title: | The Treize Assassination | The Treize Assassination. | GOING AFTER TREIZE |
| Ext. Night. New Edwards Base. Gundam Shenlong inserts its arm into a hanger door and pulls the doors apart. Gundam Heavyarms helps to pry the doors open, revealing a field of vertical red beams throughout the hanger bay. | |||
| Trowa: | Explosive devices with infrared sensors. | Explosive devices with infrared sensors. | Infra-red activated self-destruct systems? |
| Wufei: | That won't stop me! I'm going after Treize! | That won't stop me! I'm going after Treize! | I don't care! I'm going in! |
| Shenlong runs across the hanger, setting off explosions, followed by Heavyarms. Shortly after, two mobile suit transport jets take off through the flames and smoke, while Duo, Heero and Quatre remain in their Gundams on the New Edwards airfields. | |||
| Duo: | Treize Khushrenada was using us like a bunch of puppets. | Treize Khushrenada was using us like a bunch of puppets... | We've been tricked by Treize...? |
| Quatre: | We totally screwed up this entire mission. | We screwed up this mission. | Completely and perfectly... |
| Heero: | [growls] | ||
| Duo: | Let's go after Treize! We can still catch up with him! | Let's go after Treize! We can still catch him! | We have no choice! Let's go after Treize! We can still catch up to him! |
| Quatre: | That's not wise! | That's not wise! | You're not thinking straight! |
| Duo: | Stay outta my way! You want me to shoot ya? | Stay outta my way! Want me to shoot you?! | Stay out of my way! Or I'll shoot you! |
| Quatre: | Our missions have always focused on attacking when they least expect it. But the enemy clearly has the advantage right now. | Our tactics have always been a surprise attack. But now the enemy has the advantage. | We're only good at guerrilla tactics. But right now, OZ's defenses are almost faultless! |
| Duo: | I see what you're sayin' kid. | You've got a point. | I guess you're right. |
| An alert tone sounds in Deathscythes' cockpit and Duo looks at his monitors. A moment later, mobile suits begin to fire at the Gundams. | |||
| Duo: | Hmm? So we didn't get them all! | So we didn't get them all! | Are there still survivors? |
| Quatre: | Either way, let's get out of here! | Let's get out of here! | Let's get out of here for now. |
| Duo: | Right. | Sure! | Hey! |
| Sandrock and Deathscythe both move to evade the incoming fire, but Wing Gundam doesn't change position. | |||
| Duo: | Hey kid! Look out, you'll get shot! | Hey kid! Look out! You'll get shot! | Get away! Move out! |
| Quatre: | Huh? | ||
| Duo: | Don't just stand there! | Don't just stand there! | What the hell is he doing? |
| Ext. Night. Treize's private jet lands on his carrier at sea, currently flanked by two OZ warships. Treize and Lady Une disembark from the jet, and she updates him on the status of his personnel. | |||
| Lady Une: | I ordered Lieutenant Zechs to take control of the Luxembourg Headquarters where they continue to retaliate. | I ordered Lieutenant Zechs to take control of the Luxembourg Headquarters where they continue to retaliate. | Lt. Zechs is on a new mission: he's on his way to Luxembourg to suppress the still-resisting European HQ. |
| Treize: | Good. He should be able to get things under control. | Good. He should be able to get things under control. | He should be able to put them down quickly. |
| Lady Une: | How are we going to handle those Gundams at the New Edwards Base? | How shall we handle the Gundams at New Edwards? | What would you like to do about the Gundams at New Edwards Base. |
| Treize: | I'll leave that up to you. | I'll leave that up to you. | I'll leave them up to you. |
| Lady Une: | Sir! | Sir! | Yes, Sir! |
| Int. OZ Base Near New Edwards. In the control room, OZ personnel speak with Lady Une via a video monitor. | |||
| Officer 1: | This base is completely under our control. Request permission to head for New Edwards. | This base is completely under our control. Request permission to head for New Edwards. | We have gained complete control here. Please give us permission to station our troops at New Edwards Base. |
| Lady Une: | To New Edwards? That won't be necessary. All you need to do is activate the missile self-detonation devices which are at New Edwards. | For New Edwards? That won't be necessary. Just activate the missile self-detonation devices at New Edwards. | Permission? Stationing troops is not necessary. All you have to do is activate the switch for the missile self-destruct system at the base. |
| Officer 1: | Self-detonation devices? | Self-detonation devices? | Missile self-destruct system...? |
| Lady Une: | If I remember correctly, you can activate them from where you are. | I'm sure you can activate them from where you are. | You can remotely activate the system from there. |
| Officer 1: | That's correct. | That's correct. | Yes, Ma'am. |
| Lady Une: | Then get to it! | Then get to it! | Then do it! |
| Lady Une's transmission ends, and the screen goes blank. | |||
| Officer 2: | That's over-kill. Demolishing an entire base just to kill off a few mobile suits. | That's over-kill. Demolishing an entire base just to kill a few mobile suits. | This is just great! Blowing up the whole base just to destroy a handful of Mobile Suits? |
| Officer 1: | The EarthSphere Alliance Military didn't even have the guts to do something this simple. | The Alliance Military couldn't do something this simple. | Just like that, the Federation Leaders could never have come up with this kind of decision. |
| Ext. Cargo plane in the airspace near New Edwards. Switch to view of the cockpit of the plane, and Sally Po speaking with a communications officer in the cockpit of the plane. | |||
| Sally: | What is all this commotion? | What's all this commotion?! | What is all that chaos down there? |
| Officer: | There's an unusually large number of aircraft asking for permission to land. Probably the ones that escaped from New Edwards! | An unusually large number of aircraft are asking to land. Probably the ones that escaped from New Edwards! | There are literally 100s of planes requesting permission to land from the air controller. I suspect those are the planes that escaped from New Edwards Air Force Base. |
| Sally: | This just doesn't make any sense. It's far too chaotic to be a mere Gundam attack. | It's too chaotic to be a mere Gundam attack. This doesn't make sense. | But even with the threat from Gundams, this traffic is way too heavy. |
| Officer 2: | Major Sally! I've intercepted an OZ transmission! They're planning on activating the missiles at the New Edwards Base! | Major Sally! I've intercepted an OZ transmission! They're gonna detonate the missiles at New Edwards! | Major Sallieh! I intercepted OZ's transmission! They're going to blow up the missiles at New Edwards! |
| Sally: | I don't believe it. | No! | What? |
| Officer: | It appears that they're going to destroy the Gundams along with the base! | They're trying to destroy the Gundams and the base! | They must be trying to destroy the Gundams along with the entire base. |
| Sally: | We must land this at once! We should be able to make a belly landing on the sand. | We must land at once! We can make a belly landing on the sand. | Land right here, immediately! It's a desert, for God's sake We should make it alright. |
| Int. OZ Base Near New Edwards. Control room. | |||
| OZ Officer: | System locked on. | System locked on. | System: activated. |
| Computer: | Preparing to activate detonation devices. All personnel leave the premises. I repeat: Preparing to activate detonation devices. All personnel leave the premises. | Preparing to activate detonation devices. Leave the premises. I repeat. | Self Destruct System has been activated. Everyone evacuate immediately. Repeat. Self-Destruct System has been activated. |
| OZ Officer: | These babies should get rid of those Gundams, heh. | These babies should get rid of those Gundams. | At last, the Gundams will be history. |
| Sally: | Stop! | Stop! | Stop! |
| Sally and her allies stand in the doorway to the control room, guns at the ready and pointed at the OZ officers. | |||
| Sally: | You can't be serious! Many of your colleagues and injured officers are still here on the premises! | You can't be serious! Your colleagues and injured officers are still there! | Have you gone insane?! There are plenty of wounded soldiers still at New Edwards, waiting for help! |
| OZ Officer: | Heh, I'm sure they'd be glad to die with such honor. | They'd be glad to die with such honor. | They'll die an honorable death, doing their duty. |
| Sally: | You're out of your mind! | You're crazy! | Crazy... |
| OZ Officer: | I think I'll take that as a compliment, ex-Alliance Forces Major. | I'll take that as a compliment, ex-Alliance Forces Major. | I'll take that as a compliment, Federation Major. |
| The OZ officer presses a red button, and an alert tone begins to sound. | |||
| Sally: | [gasps] But how could you?! | How could you?! | What have you done...? |
| Computer: | Final safety device deactivated, T minus 900 to detonation. | Final safety device deactivated. T minus 900 to detonation. | Final Safety Lock: released. 900 seconds till explosion. |
| The scene switches to a few moments later. The OZ officers are now seated on the floor and tied with ropes, and still under the watchful care and pistols of Sally's companions. | |||
| Officer: | Major Sally, what are you trying to do? | Major Sally, what are you trying to do? | Major Sallieh, what are you doing? |
| OZ Officer: | There's a lock on the system. There's nothing more you can do from here. | The system's locked. There's nothing more you can do. | Once the system has been activated, nothing can be done to stop it! |
| OZ Officer 2: | You can try what you like, but it won't make any difference. There's only ten minutes before the base is wiped out! | Nothing you try will work. There's only 10 minutes before the base is wiped out! | You can't do anything at this point. 10 more minutes and everything is gone. |
| Sally: | There's one person out there we wouldn't be able to eliminate even if we wanted to get rid of him. | There's one person we couldn't eliminate if we wanted to. | Even though you want everything gone, there are some tough people out there you can never get rid of. |
| Officer: | A Gundam? | A Gundam? | You mean the Gundams? |
| Sally: | A Gundam pilot I'm interested in. I was hoping I'd have the chance to see him again. Who would have thought this would happen. | A Gundam pilot I'm interested in. I was hoping I could see him again. I didn't think this would happen. | I happen to know one of the pilots. In fact, I've been wanting to see him again. He's there, and now this! |
| Ext. Night. New Edwards Airfields. Duo and Quatre continue to fight off Leo and Tragos mobile suits, while Wing Gundam continues to take hits without retaliating. | |||
| Duo: | So, how long do you expect us to look after you? | Hey! Quit relying on us like this! | Stop giving me a hard time! |
| Quatre: | Your friend's just gone through a little too much it seems. | Your friend's just gone through too much! | Your friend seems to be in shock from what he's done. |
| A Tragos fires at Wing Gundam, and the mobile suit skids across the tarmac, throwing Heero against the seat restraints until he falls against his monitor and grunts in pain. | |||
| Sally: | Heero! I know you can hear me! | Heero! I know you can hear me! | Heero! I know you can hear me. |
| Heero: | Huh? | ||
| Sally: | Listen to me, Heero! | Listen to me, Heero! | Listen to me! Heero! |
| Wing Gundam lifts from the pavement and turns towards the public address speaker system on the base. | |||
| Duo: | Heero? So his name's Heero? | Heero? So his name's Heero? | Heero? Is that his name? |
| Sally: | Detonation devices on the base's large missiles were activated a few minutes ago! OZ is planning to blow the entire base apart in order to kill you Gundam pilots! | Detonation devices on the base's large missiles were activated! OZ is planning to blow the entire base apart to kill you Gundams! | The missile self-destruct system has been activated at this base! OZ is trying to blow you up along with the whole base! |
| Quatre: | I've confirmed that. Apparently there are 47 large missiles situated at the New Edwards Base and if they were to explode at once, it would instantly wipe out a radius of about 300 kilometers! | I've confirmed that. There are 47 large missiles at the New Edwards Base and if they were to explode at once it'd instantly wipe out a radius of about 300 kilometers! | I've confirmed it. There are 47 high-yield nuclear warheads at New Edwards; and if all of them went off at the same time... Everything in 180-mile radius will be destroyed! |
| Duo: | I'm not sticking around! Let's blow this place right now! | I'm not sticking around! Let's get out of here! | You've got to be joking! Let's get the hell outta here! |
| Quatre: | There's ten minutes before it blows up! We can't possibly get away safely… now! | There's less than 10 minutes before the explosion! We can't get 300 kilometers away in that time! | We have less than 10 minutes to get away. There is no way we can fly 180 miles in such a short period of time! |
| Sally: | You would be able to cover that distance in time. But please, grant me my one last wish! Deactivate the missiles, Heero! | You'd be able to cover that distance in time. But please, grant me my one last wish! Deactivate the missiles, Heero! | You may be able escape from here in time. But let me ask you for a very selfish favor... Don't let them go off, Heero! |
| Wing Zero transforms into flight mode and launches into the sky. | |||
| Duo: | Hey! Heero! You coward! How can you leave us? | You coward, Heero! You leaving us?!! | Hey! Heero… is that your name? Are you deserting us?! |
| Quatre: | You're wrong! He isn't trying to run away! | You're wrong! He isn't running away! | No! He won't desert us! |
| Heero: | Missile base location confirmed. Proceeding to enter the base. | Missile base location confirmed. Proceeding to enter base. | The missile silo location: confirmed. I'm going in. |
| Duo: | What's that guy trying to prove?! | What's he doing?! | What is he doing? |
| Quatre: | Roger that, Heero. I'm gonna stake my life on you! | Roger that, Heero. I'll stake my life on you! | I understand. I wish you success. |
| Wing Zero transforms back into a mobile suit and lands on top of a missile holding warehouse. Heero uses his beam saber to cut a slice along one of the missile vent ports in the roof, and then braces the opening with Wing Gundam's foot and its shield. Heero opens the cockpit blast shield doors and drops down into the missile warehouse below. | |||
| Heero: | A failed mission means death! But my card hasn't come up yet! | A failed mission means death! But my card isn't up yet! | I deserve to die for my mistake. But I can't die like this! |
| As he falls from the roof, he shoots a line with a magnetic bolt from a gun. The bolt strikes an I-beam in the building's support structure, and Heero swings out to reduce the force of his fall, and lowers himself to the ground. Quatre guides Heero's progress via a walkie-talkie tucked into Heero's shorts. | |||
| Quatre: | The detonation device has been activated on the largest missile, the model 304. It's set up so that model 304's explosion will trigger the explosion of all the other missiles. Hurry to the model 304 control room. | The detonation device has been activated on the largest missile, model 304. Model 304's explosion will trigger the explosion of all the other missiles. Hurry to the model 304 control room. | The self-destruct system is based on the largest missile, the 304 type. All the rest are set to go off from the blast of the 304. Try to find the control room for the 304, as quickly as possible. |
| Heero looks up at one of the missiles, stretching up above him; then he turns and runs off in the other direction, down a dark tunnel. | |||
| Ext. New Edwards Airfields. Gundam Sandrock fires missiles at mobile suits, destroying two more. In a nearby flight hanger, Duo opens the cargo bay to a mobile suit carrier as Gundam Deathscythe stands next to it, ready to be loaded. Another mobile suit carrier is sitting in the hanger as well. | |||
| Duo: | Alright, they're in good shape. I've secured two carriers! | They're in good shape. I've secured two carriers! | Ok, I got them! These 2 can still fly. |
| Quatre: | The runway will be cleared in a minute! | The runway will be cleared soon! | The runway is almost clear. |
| Duo: | Let's just hope we're not wastin' our time. | Let's hope we're not wasting our time. | I hope this pays off, though. |
| Quatre: | Oh, and could you get your hands on one more carrier and get it ready for departure? | Could you get one more carrier ready for departure? | And please have another ready to take off. |
| Duo: | Another one? | Another one?! | |
| Quatre: | Heero's gonna need one too. His mobile suit is probably low on fuel. | Heero's gonna need one too. His mobile suit's probably low on fuel. | He needs one, too. His Gundam will be out of fuel very soon. |
| Duo: | You are totally confident that he's gonna succeed, arn'tcha? | You're totally confident that he's gonna succeed? | How can you be optimistic? |
| Duo leans back in the cockpit of the MS carrier and folds his hands behind his head. | |||
| Quatre: | Yes. | Yes. | I just am. |
| Duo: | It's all up to you now. Go for it, Heero. | It's up to you now, Heero! | Heero, I'm counting on you. |
| Quatre: | He's got a 10 percent chance of success, but that guy can do it for sure! | He's got a 10 percent chance of succeeding. But he can do it for sure! | There's only a 10% chance of success. But I know he can make it |
| The countdown clock shows 29 seconds left. | |||
| Int. Control room. Sally Po and her officers stand in front of the control screens and watch the countdown timer. | |||
| Officer 2: | It's futile. The detonation system hasn't stopped yet. | It's no use. The detonation system hasn't stopped yet. | This is no good. The countdown never seems to stop. |
| Officer 1: | Major Sally! I still can't believe anyone's capable of stopping the explosion at this base! | Major Sally! I still can't believe anyone can stop the explosion at that base! | Major Sallieh, I can't believe that anyone can actually deactivate the system in time. |
| Sally: | I understand. Who would ever believe such a thing. But I can believe it. I'm proud of that kid. I wanna brag that I knew Heero, the person who prevented the explosion. | I understand. Who would ever believe such a thing. But I can. I'm proud of him. I wanna brag that I know Heero, who prevented the explosion. | I know. No one else would believe he can do it. But I do. And I want to show off the fact that I know that man. Heero Yuy... he will prevent this catastrophe... |
| Int. Narrow access passageway. Heero pulls himself through the passage and reaches the end, which is guarded with metal bars. He pulls the bars apart, and they spark and retain the imprints of his hands from the force he uses to move them. He reaches through the bars, and pulls a wire tab from a circuit board labeled "Intel Outside." The timer slows and stops at 0001.45. In their respective mobile suit carriers, while flying away from the base, Quatre and Duo wave at each other | |||
| Duo: | I've got to say you're quite the guy, Heero! Way to go. | I have to say you're quite the guy, Heero! | You're unbelievable, Heero. |
| Heero makes his way back onto the roof of the missile holding warehouse, and stands on the roof near Wing Gundam. | |||
| Heero: | What a miserable mission. I screwed up. [yells] I totally screwed up! | It was a miserable mission. l...I totally screwed up!! | What a horrible mistake... It is my... It's all my fault! |
| Int. Private cabin of Treize's Ship. Treize sits in a chair, reading a book, when Lady Une approaches, salutes, and delivers her report (to the back of Treize's chair). | |||
| Lady Une: | Sir, I am very sorry I could not eliminate the Gundams. | I'm sorry I couldn't eliminate the Gundams. | I'm terribly sorry. I failed to destroy the Gundams! |
| Treize: | I'm surprised. That's not like you. How were you planning to destroy them? | I'm surprised. That's not like you. How were you planning to destroy them? | You failed? How unlike you. What means did you use to try to destroy them anyway? |
| Lady Une: | I attempted to activate the self-detonation devices of the missiles at of the New Edwards Base. | I tried to activate the self-detonation devices of the New Edwards base missiles. | I activated the missile self-destruct system at New Edwards to try to blow them up along with the base. |
| Treize: | And, so? | And? | And...? |
| Lady Une: | The Gundams deactivated the bombs and prevented the explosion. | The Gundams deactivated the bombs and stopped the explosion. | Apparently, one of the Gundam pilots deactivated the system and prevented the explosion. |
| Treize: | We were saved by the Gundams. | Saved by the Gundams. | God bless the Gundams... |
| Lady Une: | Hmm? | ||
| Treize: | The Earth is a confined area. We can't go around thoughtlessly polluting it. | The Earth is a confined area. We can't go around thoughtlessly polluting it. | |
| Treize stands, closes his book, and turns to address Lady Une. | |||
| Treize: | Human beings are weak and vulnerable. Anybody is capable of killing anyone. But you mustn't abuse this capability. This time around we'll just have to give our thanks to the Gundams. Oh, and Lady Une? You must learn more about the OZ organization. | Human beings are weak and vulnerable. Anybody is capable of killing anyone. But we mustn't abuse this capability. This time we'll have to thank the Gundams. And Lady Une. You must learn more about the OZ organization. | The Earth is only valuable because of its beautiful nature. No one is allowed to damage or destroy it no matter what. Human beings are such fragile creatures. So weak that all could become extinct under the slightest environmental changes. You don't want that to happen. We have to thank the Gundams this time. And, Lady, you need to learn more about OZ. |
| Lady Une: | I'm sorry. I'll try harder. | Learn about OZ...? | Learn... About OZ...? |
| Ext. Day. Outside Luxembourg. Noin sits on a motorcycle outside of the Alliance Headquarters. Smoke rises in the distance from the crumbled remains of buildings. | |||
| Noin: | Even after all this damage there's no sign of surrendering. Brigadier-General Daigonegell's such a tenacious man. But I hope he's also a hateful person, otherwise Zechs' feelings could be undermined. | Even after all this damage there's no sign of surrendering. Brigadier-General Daigonegell's such a tenacious man. But I hope he's also a hateful person. Otherwise Zechs could feel less resolute. | No news of surrender yet, after all the attacks we made against them. Lt. General Diego O'Neguil... What a man! But I'd rather he be a hateful man. Otherwise, Zechs' spirit will be shaken. |
| Ext. Day. Alliance Headquarters. A blue-roofed building sits behind a high barricade wall, well fortified and defended with artillery guns mounted at regular intervals. Daigonegell stands at the window of his office, looking out over his domain. | |||
| Daigonegell: | How dare you! Were you expecting the Alliance Headquarters to fall that easily? I'm not letting OZ come one step closer to this base! | How dare you! You expected the Alliance Headquarters to fall so easily? I'm not letting OZ come one step closer to this base! | Fools! What made you think that the Federation European HQ would surrender so easily? I won't let even one OZ soldier enter this fortress! |
| Zechs: | I agree that security at this base is splendid. | I agree that security at this base is splendid. | Indeed, the defense of this fortress is almost perfect. |
| Daigonegell turns at the unexpected voice, and finds a stranger standing at the door to his office. He stands in puzzlement behind his desk and waits for him to approach. | |||
| Daigonegell: | Huh? | ||
| Zechs: | But if there were even a brief moment of carelessness among your people, this base would be taken over immediately. | But if your people were even briefly careless this base would be taken over immediately. | But if even one person inside lets down his guard, the whole fortress will eventually fall. |
| Daigonegell: | Lieutenant Zechs Merquise! | Zechs Merquise!! | Zechs Merquise! |
| Daigonegell backs up to the window, and Zechs raises an ornate pistol, pointing it at Daigonegell. | |||
| Zechs: | So you did know it was me after all. You were extremely cautious around me during the Alliance days so I thought you might have been able to tell me apart from all of the other people. | So you knew it was me. You were cautious around me during the Alliance days so I thought you could tell me apart from any others. | So you did know... When I was a Federation officer I always wondered if you knew, since you were always so cautious around me. |
| Daigonegell: | It was the era we were in! The war made me do those things! It wasn't my personal desire but the Alliance's decision as a whole to annihilate the Sanc Kingdom. | It was the era! The war made me do those things! Annihilating the Sanc Kingdom wasn't my personal desire but the Alliance's decision. | It was an order. My superiors made me do it! It was never my idea to attack the Kingdom of Cinq. It was the will of the Federation! |
| Zechs: | The Sanc Kingdom had no intention of retaliating against the Alliance, but you staged an attack and destroyed the kingdom anyway. When, at the time, many countries opposed the expanding military powers of the United Earth Sphere Alliance. The Sanc Kingdom was only one of those opposed. You declared that you could eliminate the cause of the retaliation by sweeping away the royal family, since it had an influence on the neighboring countries. You personally led the attack! | The Sanc Kingdom had no intention of resisting against the Alliance. But you staged an attack and destroyed the Kingdom. Many countries opposed the expanding military powers of the United Earth Sphere Alliance. The Sanc Kingdom was one of those opposed. You said you could eliminate the revolt's cause by destroying the Royal family since it influenced neighboring countries. You personally led the attack! | The Kingdom of Cinq had no intention of confronting the Federation. But you attacked it anyway and destroyed our peaceful monarchy. At that time, there were many nations opposing the growing military presence of the World Federation. The Kingdom of Cinq was one of them. I remember that you openly said that you could suppress the opposing nations by destroying one influential royal monarchy as a lesson. And you did what you said. |
| Daigonegell's eye's widen, his breathing becomes labored, and there is a flashback to images of the burning Sanc palace, of a portrait of the royal family, of a much younger Zechs in the burning portrait, and then Zechs, in his mask, holding an ornate pistol, superimposed on that image. | |||
| Daigonegell: | Milliardo Peacecraft... | Milliard Peacecraft... | Milliard Peacecraft... |
| Daigonegell reaches for his desk drawer, and opens it. He manages to fit his hand around the pistol inside the drawer when a shot rings out and he moans in pain. | |||
| Zechs: | May you rest in peace: the betrayed and outraged Milliardo Peacecraft. | May you rest in peace the betrayed and outraged Milliard Peacecraft. | Rest peacefully... Merquise Milliard Peacecraft... |
| Int. Night. OZ Carrier Ship. On the command deck, Lady Une leans against one of the control panels and thinks. | |||
| Lady Une: | [thinks] Learn about OZ... Is it possible that I don't understand Mister Treize? That just couldn't be. | Learn about OZ... Could it be that I don't understand Treize? Impossible. | Learn more about OZ...? Does that mean Treize-sama thinks I don't understand him? That can't be... |
| Officer: | Captain. Two carriers from the 505 support troops are trying to establish contact with us. | Captain. Two carriers from the 505 support troops want to contact us. | Captain. 2 cargo planes from the 505 supply unit are requesting touchdown contact. |
| Captain: | What type of carriers? | What type of carriers? | What are they carrying? |
| Officer: | Aries, from our own forces. | Aries, from our own forces. | OZ replacement Aries. |
| Captain: | Contact approved. | Contact approved. | Fine. Request granted. |
| Officer: | This is Big Nose; please begin communication! | This is Big Nose; begin communication! | This is big OZ. Request for touchdown contact granted. |
| Lady Une: | Hold on. Just which base did those carriers come from? | Wait. Which base did they come from? | Wait. Where are those 2 cargo planes stationed from? |
| Officer: | From the New Edwards base. | One moment. The New Edwards base. | New Edwards. |
| Lady Une: | You fools! Those are enemies! | You fools! Those are enemies! | You idiot! Those are the enemy! |
| The MS carrier that Wufei is piloting crash lands into a ship in the fleet. | |||
| Lady Une: | Oh… | ||
| Officer: | The other carrier is headed for this Mother Ship! | The other carrier's headed for this Mother Ship! | There's another one heading straight towards this carrier! |
| Lady Une: | Then shoot it down! | Shoot it down! | Shoot it down! |
| The OZ navy opens fire on the MS carriers, and a round strikes Trowa's plane. | |||
| Trowa: | I'm starting to run out of fuel. This carrier wouldn't cause too much of an explosion so I'm going to have to exit on the mobile suit. | I'm running out of fuel. This carrier wouldn't cause a big explosion. So I'll leave on the mobile suit. | There isn't enough fuel in this plane to create a massive explosion, even if I made a suicide crash I should get out with the Mobile Suit. |
| The plane crashes onto the deck of the OZ carrier, resulting in an explosion that rocks the ship and causes the staff in the control room to yell and lurch with the ship. Gundam Heavyarms rises from the wreckage of the carrier. | |||
| Officer: | It's a Gundam! A Gundam is on the ship! | It's a Gundam! A Gundam is here! | It's a Gundam! A Gundam has appeared! |
| Lady Une: | What? On the ship? Fight him with the Leos! | What?! on the ship?! Fight him with the Leos! | What?! On board? Dispatch the Leos! |
| Leo mobile suits rise on the rise on a deck elevator behind Trowa's Gundam. Heavyarms destroys them easily. | |||
| Officer: | Twenty Leos have been destroyed! | Twenty Leos have been destroyed! | We've lost 20 Leos! |
| Lady Une: | What is your problem? Throw him into the sea and get him with the Cancer! Where's Mister Treize's ship? | What's your problem?! Throw him into the sea and get him with the Cancer! Where's Treize's ship?! | What are they doing? Push it overboard! Then get it with a Cancer! Where's Treize-sama's ship now? |
| Officer: | It sailed away from the rest of the fleet! | It left the fleet! | It's leaving the fleet formation! |
| Lady Une: | Good! | Good! | Good! |
| In Shenlong, Wufei tracks one ship moving away from the others on his radar. | |||
| Wufei: | Must be this one! | This one! | There he is... |
| Officer: | It's a Gundam! This one has come out of the carrier that went down! | A Gundam! It came out of the carrier that went down! | Another Gundam! It came out of the crashed cargo plane! |
| Lady Une: | It what?! | What?! | What?! |
| Officer: | The Gundam on the ship has destroyed the bridge! | The Gundam on the ship has destroyed the bridge! | The Gundam on the Zenyo is destroying its bridge! |
| Officer 2: | 70% of our Leos have been destroyed! | 70% of our Leos have been destroyed! | The Leo unit's damage is up to 70%. |
| Captain: | Can't we use the Aries? | Can't we use the Aries?! | Can't you dispatch any Aries? |
| Officer 2: | No sir, all of our elevators will be targeted! | No, all of our elevators will be targeted! | No! They'll fire at them as soon as they come up the elevators! |
| Lady Une: | Why now; on this happy day of our new beginning? | Why now; on this happy day of our new beginning! | What a mess this happy day turned into... |
| Officer: | Lieutenant Colonel Lady Une! Gundam's still attacking on the ship! | Lieutenant Colonel Une! Gundam's still attacking on the ship! | Lady Une, we've failed to contain the Gundam on board! |
| Lady Une: | I told you already; throw him in the sea! There's no need to inform me of his every move, you just follow my orders! | I told you; throw him into the sea!! Don't inform me of his every move. Just follow my orders! | I told you to push it overboard! And you don't have to report every single detail every second, to me! Just do what I tell you! |
| Officer: | Right. Yes, ma'am. | Yes, ma'am! | Yes, ma'am! |
| Officer 2: | Gundam's on the takeoff catapult line! | Gundam's now on the takeoff catapult line! | A Gundam is on the runway! |
| Captain: | Good! Get a Leo on the catapult and shoot that Gundam into the sea! | Good! Send a Leo and shoot that Gundam into the sea! | Good! Put a Leo on the catapult and push it out! |
| A Leo mobile suit launches toward Heavyarms on the catapult line, tackles the Gundam, and both suits launch over the side of the ship. As they hit the ocean, Heavyarms' army knife pierces the Leo's torso. The two mobile suits are surrounded by Cancer mobile suits. | |||
| Int. OZ Command Carrier. Lady Une rides one of the deck elevators down to the mobile suit storage deck with two of her officers. She watches as a flight pack is added to a Leo mobile suit. | |||
| Lady Une: | How are preparations? | How are preparations? | Is it ready? |
| Officer: | Complete! With this advanced mobile option, it should move like an Aries! | Complete! With this advanced mobility, it should move like an Aries! | Yes, ma'am! This high-performance booster option lets a Leo maneuver almost like an Aries. |
| Lady Une: | Huh. Just as long as I can shoot down that other Gundam! And that Gundam's attacking Mister Treize's ship? Well, not for much longer! | As long as I can fly over to the other Gundam! That Gundam's attacking Treize's ship?! Not for much longer! | It doesn't matter. I only need to fly over to where the other Gundam is. I won't let you harm Treize-sama's ship! |
| Ext. Gundam Shenlong successfully makes the jump between the one OZ carrier and the next on the way to Treize's ship, but is fired upon as he makes the final approach to the railing ship. Shenlong stomps on an artillery mount, and it explodes. | |||
| Wufei: | Destination reached! Here I go, Nataku! | Destination reached! Here I go, Nataku! | Target confirmed. Here I go! |
| An alert sounds, and Wufei turns back to the main OZ command ship in time to see Lady Une, in the modified Leo, slam into Shenlong and drive both mobile suits up against the command tower of the vessel. | |||
| Wufei: | Huh? | ||
| Lady Une disengages the flight pack from her Leo and draws her beam sword. | |||
| Lady Une: | Huh. Don't be so sure of yourself, Gundam! You're not getting one step closer to that ship! | Don't be so sure of yourself, Gundam! You won't get any closer to that ship! | Listen to me, Gundam! I will not let you go any further! |
| Wufei: | Nobody can stop me! Even you. | Nobody can stop me! | No one can stop me! |
| Lady Une: | I wasn't expecting this much resistance! But it's game-over now! You die! | I wasn't expecting this much resistance! But it's game-over now!! Die!! | No one has ever annoyed me this much. But this is the end! Die! |
| Wufei: | Stupid move, getting emotional. | Stupid move, getting emotional. | Don't become intoxicated with yourself. |
| Shenlong reaches out and grips the Leo's sword arm, and begins to crush it. Then tears the appendage completely off. Lady Une uses the other arm to punch Shenlong in the chest, but the Gundam stands unaffected. | |||
| Lady Une: | Huh? | ||
| Wufei: | Step aside! You can see for yourself that you'll never beat me. | Step aside! You can see for yourself that you'll never beat me. | Go away! Don't you get it? You can't beat me! |
| Lady Une: | I never knew Gundams were so powerful! I want him dead! | I never knew Gundams were so powerful! Damn!! | I had no idea a Gundam was so powerful. Damn you! |
| Treize's luxury ship cruises past the military carrier, and sounds its air horn. Lady Une breaks off from her attack on Wufei and turns to face the ship. | |||
| Lady Une: | Huh? Mr. Treize! | Mr. Treize! | Treize-sama. |
| Wufei: | Looks like your superior wants to fight with me! Fine by me! I'll stop him in his tracks! | Looks like your superior wants to fight with me! Fine by me! I'll stop him in his tracks! | Your boss seems to be inviting me. Alright. I accept the invitation. |
| Lady Une: | Mr. Treize, it's dangerous! Get away from here! | Mr. Treize, it's dangerous! Get away from here! | Treize-sama! It's too dangerous! Please evacuate! |
| Treize: | Lady Une, | Lady Une... | Lady Une... |
| Treize interrupts the video signal in Une's cockpit, replacing the live feed with a peaceful mountain scene complete with a blue sky, green fields, and chirping birds. | |||
| Treize: | Leave him to me. | Leave him to me. | I'll take care of this. |
| Lady Une: | But, Mister Treize... | Treize... | Treize-sama... |
| Shenlong jumps the remaining distance between the two ships, landing lightly on the helipad and facing a bank of glass windows. Treize rises from a chair, sword in hand, and walks to the window where Wufei can see him through Shenlong's video cameras. | |||
| Wufei: | So you're Treize. You'd better be my guy. | So you're the real Treize. | Treize...? He's the one! |
| Shenlong launches a dragon claw through the bank of windows and into the room. Treize stands off to the side, lightly holding his sword and waiting. | |||
| Wufei: | Hmm? I'll gladly accept. | I'll gladly accept. | If that's what you want. |
| Wufei notices the sword, and accepts the offer of a duel. He pulls his own sword from a sheath in his cockpit, and leaves his Gundam, running down the length of Shenlong's extended arm and into Treize's ship. | |||
| Wufei: | Hah. My name is Wufei! | My name is Wu Fei! | My name is Wufei! |
| Treize: | I'm Treize Khushrenada. | I'm Treize Khushrenada. | Treize Khushrenada. |
| They reach out and touch the tips of their blades against each other, and begin to duel. The fight is over quickly, as Wufei's acrobatic style of swordplay overextends his position, leaving his open to Treize's blade. | |||
| Treize: | The duel is mine. | The duel is mine. | I win. |
| Wufei stands; Treize's sword held against his neck. | |||
| Wufei: | Kill me! | Kill me! | Kill me. |
| Treize: | Hmm. | ||
| Treize hesitates, then releases his sword, allowing it drop naturally back to his side. He turns his back to Wufei. | |||
| Treize: | It was a good fight. | It was a good fight. | That was a good match. |
| Wufei: | If you don't kill me right now, I'll keep on coming back until I get you, Treize! | Kill me now or I'll come back until I get you! | Unless you kill me right now, I'll come back over and over again, until I kill you! |
| Treize: | That sounds interesting. I hope we can battle again. | That sounds interesting. I hope we can battle again. | I look forward to that. I'll see you again, then. |
| Wufei: | Arrgh!!! | Blast! | Shit! |
| Wufei throws his sword at the floor, driving its tip deep into the red carpet. | |||
| Ext. Treize's Private Ship. Gundam Shenlong stands on the deck of the ship, facing the ocean. Without turning, the Gundam walks off the side of the ship, disappearing into the ocean with a splash. The angle changes, to reveal a gaping hole in the side of the stateroom. Treize is standing, still holding his sword, and watching the departing Gundam. Une is standing next to him. | |||
| Lady Une: | Mister Treize, how come you let that Gundam pilot make his escape? | Treize, how come you let that pilot escape? | Treize-sama, why did you let him go? |
| Treize: | Hmm, he's the pilot of one of those mobile suits. Therefore, I thought it would only be fair for me to give him another chance. It was honorable of him to get off the mobile suit and duel with me. I respect that in him, and I can see why he makes such a good Gundam pilot. Next time we'll have to fight using his specialty, the mobile suits. | He's the pilot of a mobile suit. I thought it'd be fair to give him another chance. It was honorable to leave the mobile suit and duel with me. I can see why he makes such a good Gundam pilot! Next time we'll fight with his specialty, the mobile suit. | He is an honorable Mobile Suit pilot. I think he deserves a second chance. Getting out of the Mobile Suit and voluntarily accepting a challenge to a duel... What a man that Gundam pilot is... I suppose, next time, we'll have to fight in Mobile Suits. |
| Lady Une: | But Mister Treize... | But Treize... | Treize-sama... |
| Ext. Ocean. Trowa uses Gundam Heavyarms' army knife to destroy a Cancer mobile suit. The Cancer explodes, and Trowa turns and sees Gundam Shenlong as it drops through the ocean depths, unmoving. | |||
| Trowa: | Did that guy actually accomplish his mission? Hey you! Can you hear me? I understand. Let's just drop it. | Did that guy actually accomplish his mission? Hey! Can you hear me?! I understand. Let's just drop it. | Did he succeed in getting him? Hey! What happened? I see. It's alright. |
| In Shenlong's cockpit, Wufei is motionless, his hands grip tight on the controls of his Gundam. | |||
