The chance meeting between Char and Sayla

did little more than confirm the differences in their beliefs.

The Zanzibar destroyed Wakkein's Magellan and then fled from Texas.

And the White Base returned to Solomon.

The Newtype, Challia Bull

The Newtype, Challia Bull!

Until yesterday, Solomon played an important part in the Principality of Zeon's space strategy.

Now, it has begun as a base for the Earth Federation Forces.

Therefore, the Federation now has a significant foothold toward its invasion of Zeon.

It seems to only be a matter of time

until reinforcements arrive and the Federation Forces stage an all-out attack to end the war.

But a strange incident suddenly occurs at Solomon...

There it is again!

It sounds like "la, la."

It's on flight path E-6.

If you're right there, you should see the enemy!

What?

We haven't finished laying the new power lines yet!

How could we see it?!

Hey, what happened?

Area 38! Area 38!

General!

This is amazing.

Those flashes are from Lalah's attacks.

I can't believe it.

The Newtype, Lalah, and the mobile armor Elmeth.

Together they're more than enough.

What's that?

An explosion?

Marker, where's the enemy?

I don't see any.

The Minovsky particle density is too high to track any.

What could it be?

I feel like something out there is calling for us.

All hands, watch for air raids!

Yes, sir!

Mirai, what's wrong?

Are you feeling sick?

No, I'm fine.

But something's not right.

There's something strange around Solomon.

Strange?

Whatever it is, it isn't on our side.

Mr. Bright!

What is it?

They've ordered the White Base to go to level one battle stations and stand by to enter port.

Roger.

Decks 1 and 2!

Launch the Gundam, Guncannon and G-Fighter!

Go to level one battle stations!

Can't they cut us some slack?

Hey, Kikka!

Will you guys bring me my normal suit?

Mr. Sunmalo will get mad at us!

It's okay.

I'm all better now.

Sayla, I have faith in you, but leave your personal feelings out of the battle.

Mr. Bright, I've been fighting sincerely this whole time.

I'm just doing my job as your commander.

I trust you.

Thank you.

G-Fighter, ready for takeoff.

Is something the matter, Bright?

Yeah.

It's Sayla.

Something has been bothering her.

I see.

Heading out!

Guncannon, launching!

It was only a matter of time.

I'm the daughter of Zeon and Char's younger sister.

No wonder he doesn't trust me.

Not again!

It's calling me!

It feels like...

something is....

calling for me.

What is it?

I can almost see something!

What is it?

Are you tired, Lalah?

Yes, Captain.

But I'm fine.

I can still do it.

No, that's enough for today.

We've accomplished plenty.

You'd better rest for a while.

Yes, Captain.

That sound is gone!

What was I hearing, anyway?

Something was definitely calling me.

Several hours before this incident, Gihren Zabi, the commander of the Principality of Zeon,

was meeting with Lieutenant Challia Bull, who had just returned from Jupiter.

Now that your fleet has returned, we no longer have to worry about a helium shortage.

Anyway, I don't intend to allow this war to continue for years to come.

I heard that you want to end the war in one month, Admiral.

You didn't hear that from me, Challia Bull.

Take a seat.

Let's get down to business.

Right, thank you very much.

I must say, with regard to the Newtypes you were discussing,

I really only have slightly sharper perception than a normal person.

I know more about you than you do yourself.

Sir?

We gathered data regarding your talents from when you served with the Jupiter Energy Fleet

and submitted it to the Flanagan Institute for review.

The results are on that desk.

"Newtype Manifestation in the Case of Challia Bull."

You're saying that I have those abilities, sir?

Yes.

You possess abilities that you haven't even noticed yet.

Of course, there is still so much about Newtypes that we do not know,

but with your help, that might change.

We've lost too many lives in this seemingly unending war.

I'm to serve under Lady Kycilia?

Oh, you didn't need me to tell you that to figure it out.

Kycilia has been overseeing the preparations for an advanced mobile armor adapted to your talents.

As you wish, sir.

The Dolos carrier is standing by to take you there.

Yes, sir!

Do you understand my reason for having you serve under Kycilia?

Sir...

I cannot understand what your greater plan is, sir.

However, I will make every effort to understand it better.

That will do, Challia Bull.

Trying to read the minds of others will only lead to your own downfall.

My only request is that you try to consider the significance of my assigning you to Kycilia.

Is the man named Challia Bull aboard that ship?

Yes, ma'am.

Along with Lieutenant Simus and the Braw Bro.

If Lieutenant Challia Bull's abilities are greater than Lalah's,

we should consider assigning him to pilot the Elmeth.

Make sure Captain Char understands that.

Yes, ma'am.

I'll inform him.

So he's just returned from Jupiter, has he?

He may prove to be a more capable Newtype than Lalah.

I see. This is a rather simple console panel.

Lieutenant Simus, I'm ready when you are!

Let's launch!

Roger that, Lieutenant Challia Bull.

Have you found out yet?

The cause of Lalah's exhaustion.

The voltage used to regulate her brain waves has a tendency to surge back.

It's causing a shock to Lalah's system.

Can you fix it?

Yes, but we'll be unable to control the bits from long distance like we did today.

That's better than nothing.

After all, she can't confirm the enemy from long distance as it is.

I'm relieved to hear you say that, sir.

Even if it's true about the psy-commu system enhancing a person's perception...

Lalah, are you okay?

I'm fine.

I'll be ready to go back into combat in no time.

Lalah, overconfidence in battle will prove fatal.

I hear the Braw Bro will be arriving soon.

Good. Let's go to the bridge.

Yes, sir.

This Challia Bull character worries me, sir.

How come?

I'm not convinced that he has your best interests at heart, Captain.

That isn't your concern, Lalah.

Lieutenant Junior Grade Simus Bakharov and Lieutenant Challia Bull reporting for duty, sir.

Good work.

I'm Char.

This is Ensign Lalah Sune, the Elmeth's pilot.

That's Lalah, the Flanagan Institute's star pupil?

Is something wrong?

No, I was just wondering about her uniform.

I've put in a request with the Supply Corps.

I understand your concerns.

It's unacceptable for her to wander the ship in this outfit.

Lieutenant Challia Bull?

I see.

Captain, I can sense something from this young lady, Ensign Lalah.

Yes, it's a strong power.

And what do you sense from me, Lieutenant?

Well, I like your personality, Captain.

Though I think it would benefit the Principality of Zeon considerably if you were more broadminded.

I always appreciate some good advice.

I feel like I've made another valuable friend.

I'll be depending on you, Lieutenant.

It's nothing.

If we are Newtypes, I'd like to attain peace for all of our kind.

Don't you mean to attain peace for all of mankind?

Yes, sir.

Lalah, do you understand what he means?

Yes, sir.

It appears that Ensign Lalah possesses a great power, sir.

However, Lieutenant Challia Bull,

the problem at hand is that

the pilot of the mobile suit Gundam appears to be a Newtype as well.

In other words, the Federation has already dispatched a Newtype into battle.

That's a distinct possibility, sir.

Hayato, should you be up?

Sorry, I didn't mean to worry you.

What's going on here?

Nothing much.

The Gundam's control system is beginning to overheat, that's all.

Why did you send only the Lieutenant, sir?

He's too sincere for his own good.

I didn't ask you because he insisted on testing the Braw Bro.

Is that right?

You disagree?

Until the Elmeth is adjusted to your specifications, I will not allow you to sortie.

Come in.

Sorry to bother you.

Don't worry about it.

What do you want at a time like this?

I want to clear up your misunderstandings.

My misunderstandings?

You're angry with me, right?

For hiding that I knew Char.

Well, a bit.

Char is my big brother.

Brother?!

Your brother?

But, then why...?

Things are complicated.

Does this mean you're leaving the ship?

No.

I don't really think I could do that now.

I've grown attached to the White Base.

And when I think about my brother trying to accomplish the impossible,

I wish I were dead!

Sayla!

He's become a monster!

Saying he believes in Father's ideas as he twists them!

He's not the Casval I once knew.

Is Casval his real name?

Yes.

My dear brother Casval.

So now what?

I'm sorry, Bright.

This is the gold my brother gave me.

I want to give it to everyone on the White Base.

Are you sure about this?

I'd feel better this way.

I realize how selfish that sounds.

You've chosen a difficult path, Sayla.

I agree.

I understand.

I'll treat you the same as I always have.

Thank you, Bright.

Don't mention it.

I can't help but admire your strength.

I doubt this will be as easy as you'd hoped.

Still... I'm counting on you, Sayla.

I know.

Picking up what looks like an enemy patrol ship!

Solomon is requesting that we intercept them.

Can't they do anything by themselves?

They're putting their faith in us, Bright.

Yeah, as a professional decoy.

All right! Launch all units!

Gundam! Guncannon! G-Fighter! Launch immediately!

Hayato, are you all right?

I'm doing better now, Sayla!

I'm going to make up for all the time I spent resting up!

You should stay behind today!

Wait until you're fully recovered!

Here they come!

I see three of them.

No!

It isn't Lalah.

It's somebody else!

Lieutenant Challia Bull, we've located the enemy!

I'll leave combat maneuvers to you!

Please record all the data on my abilities!

Roger that!

Here it comes, Lieutenant!

I see it.

Here goes nothing!

This is incredible!

The enemy pilot is sensing a direct line between our position and the Earth!

What?!

It's different from the last one!

Below!

I knew it! The Gundam's reacting too slowly!

What an amazing mobile suit and pilot!

He most certainly is a genuine Newtype.

Otherwise, there's no way he could've avoided the Braw Bro's all-range attack!

Are there two or three mobile armors?

Fall back!

This one is different from the other mobile armors we've faced!

Fall back!

Kai!

Where's it coming from?

Kai!

Where is it?

Fall back!

This enemy is different!

Has the Gundam's reaction slowed down?

The pilot predicted I'd attack from the other side!

What's going on?

I'm only detecting one enemy mobile armor!

It's overheating!

The enemy is...

What's happening?

Did he find us?

Lieutenant Simus! Retreat!

I got him!

But I seriously overworked the Gundam!

The Gundam's control system can't keep up with me!

If we encounter a similar enemy, I'm done for!

He even defeated Challia Bull.

If I can launch in the Elmeth, I'll destroy the Gundam right now!

Don't underestimate him, Lalah.

The Federation is already using a Newtype in actual combat.

The Gundam pilot might not be the only one.

Do you really think so?

You must avoid taking risks in battle.

Pursuing the Gundam here at Solomon is too dangerous, for now.

Also, we should take a moment to honor Challia Bull.

He was manipulated by Admiral Gihren and Lady Kycilia.

The poor fellow couldn't bring himself to put on an act.

He simply chose to die an honorable death.

Captain, you sound so...

Lalah.

Newtypes aren't omniscient.

It's possible they're simply pathetic human mutations spawned by war.

No!

That can't be!

Meanwhile, the White Base faces a concerning situation.

The fears about the deficiency in the Gundam's control system have become a reality.

In other words,

the Gundam's system can no longer keep up with Amuro's ever-developing reflexes.

After a makeshift system is installed, the Gundam departs to follow the Revil Fleet.

Ahead of this fleet, one lively mobile armor

dances gracefully within Zeon's defense lines.

Mobile Suit Gundam.

Next time, "Lalah and the Elmeth."

Next Time

Lalah and the Elmeth

Can you survive?
