Of course. Otherwise,

164
00:08:25,422 --> 00:08:27,465
it'd be worthless
as a stand-alone weapon.

165
00:08:27,590 --> 00:08:28,925
(radio chatter)

166
00:08:29,050 --> 00:08:29,926
(all gasp)

167
00:08:30,010 --> 00:08:32,846
Wow. Quite exceptional.

168
00:08:32,929 --> 00:08:35,557
It seems to have enhanced
its abilities.

169
00:08:35,640 --> 00:08:38,101
GENDOH:
And it's become smarter.

170
00:08:38,184 --> 00:08:41,521
FUYUTSUKI: It's only a matter of
time before it resumes its advance.

171
00:08:42,939 --> 00:08:44,315
-(alarm blares)
-ANNOUNCER: Gate closing.

172
00:08:44,441 --> 00:08:46,484
<i>Please stay clear.
The train will...</i>

173
00:08:46,568 --> 00:08:47,944
Shinji:
Special agency NERV?

174
00:08:48,028 --> 00:08:49,738
MISATO:
Yeah. It's a secret organization

175
00:08:49,821 --> 00:08:51,072
<i>operating under the U .N.</i>

176
00:08:51,156 --> 00:08:53,533
My father works there,
doesn't he?

177
00:08:53,616 --> 00:08:56,745
That's right. And do you know
what it is your father does?

178
00:08:56,828 --> 00:09:00,623
<i>ANNOUNCER: This shuttle
will pass all stations on the way.</i>

179
00:09:00,707 --> 00:09:02,417
A teacher once told me
that he has

180
00:09:02,500 --> 00:09:04,627
the admirable job
of defending humanity.

181
00:09:04,711 --> 00:09:05,754
(telephone hangs up)

182
00:09:07,756 --> 00:09:10,592
As of this moment, you have
command over this operation.

183
00:09:10,675 --> 00:09:12,635
Let's see what you can do.

184
00:09:12,761 --> 00:09:14,304
Understood, sir.

185
00:09:14,387 --> 00:09:17,098
Ikari, it's evident
that none of the ordnance

186
00:09:17,182 --> 00:09:20,060
at our disposal has any effect
against the target.

187
00:09:21,061 --> 00:09:23,229
But you still believe
you can defeat it.

188
00:09:23,313 --> 00:09:25,940
NERV exists
for that very reason.

189
00:09:26,024 --> 00:09:28,068
Then don't let us down.

190
00:09:29,944 --> 00:09:31,988
<i>WOMAN: Target status
remains unchanged.</i>

191
00:09:32,072 --> 00:09:35,825
<i>Our current intercept capacity
is at 7.5%.</i>

192
00:09:37,035 --> 00:09:39,204
It seems the U.N. forces
have given up.

193
00:09:39,287 --> 00:09:40,497
What are your intentions?

194
00:09:40,580 --> 00:09:43,208
We'll activate Unit 01.

195
00:09:43,291 --> 00:09:45,085
Use Unit 01?

196
00:09:45,168 --> 00:09:46,795
But there's no pilot for it.

197
00:09:46,878 --> 00:09:48,713
No matter.

198
00:09:48,797 --> 00:09:50,965
Another spare
will arrive shortly.

199
00:09:51,091 --> 00:09:54,385
-(train rumbling) -Are we on the
way to go see my father right now?

200
00:09:54,511 --> 00:09:55,970
Uh-huh.

201
00:09:56,012 --> 00:09:57,097
At least, I think so.

202
00:09:58,473 --> 00:10:00,016

Come here!
-GENDOH Ikari

209
00:10:15,824 --> 00:10:18,243
Oh, right.
Give this a read-through, okay?

210
00:10:18,326 --> 00:10:19,994
Welcome to NERV
"NERV"?

211
00:10:20,995 --> 00:10:22,831
My father's work.

212
00:10:22,872 --> 00:10:24,958
Is there something
I'm supposed to do at NERV?

213
00:10:27,460 --> 00:10:30,088
I mean, there has to be, right?

214
00:10:30,171 --> 00:10:33,049
Father wouldn't have sent me
this letter if there wasn't.

215
00:10:33,133 --> 00:10:36,761
I get it. You're not comfortable
around your father, are you?

216
00:10:36,845 --> 00:10:38,680
That makes you just like me.

217
00:10:38,763 --> 00:10:39,764
Huh?

218
00:10:44,686 --> 00:10:46,312
Oh, wow.

219
00:10:47,355 --> 00:10:49,440
An actual Geo-Front!

220
00:10:49,482 --> 00:10:51,317
That's right.
And directly below us

221
00:10:51,401 --> 00:10:54,362
is our secret base,
NERV Headquarters,

222

a bastion integral
to the restoration of the world

223
00:10:57,031 --> 00:10:58,575

I'm positive this is the way.

226
00:11:08,793 --> 00:11:10,128
I'm positive this is the way.

227
00:11:12,630 --> 00:11:15,466
This is no place for a lady
wearing a skirt. (sighs)

228
00:11:15,550 --> 00:11:18,595
But whatever. I wonder where
Ritsuko would go right now.

229
00:11:18,678 --> 00:11:21,097
I'm so sorry.
Still not used to this place.

230
00:11:21,181 --> 00:11:22,891
We already passed through here.

231
00:11:24,100 --> 00:11:26,561
(sighs)
Don't worry about a thing.

232
00:11:26,644 --> 00:11:29,230
NERV has systems in place

So, is this the boy?

249
00:12:05,225 --> 00:12:07,101
Yep. He's the Third Children,

Huh? Oh, hi.

253
00:12:12,523 --> 00:12:15,276
He resembles his father
quite a lot,

254
00:12:15,360 --> 00:12:17,946

Seems like a big deal.

MISATO:
What's the state of Unit 01?

267
00:12:45,473 --> 00:12:48,017
RITSUKO: It's in type-B
configuration while being cooled down.

268

MISATO: Is that thing even

Cute. So it doesn't work.

Launch the Eva? We can't!

296
00:14:01,758 --> 00:14:03,885

We have no other choice.

300

And, Rei, she's in no shape
to pilot anything.

301
00:14:13,519 --> 00:14:15,063
We don't have any pilots.

302
00:14:15,146 --> 00:14:17,231

-Yes?
-You will be its pilot.

306
00:14:23,821 --> 00:14:25,031
Huh?

307
00:14:25,114 --> 00:14:26,407
MISATO:
What are you saying?

308
00:14:26,491 --> 00:14:28,201
It took Rei Ayanami seven months

309
00:14:28,284 --> 00:14:29,952
before she would synchronize
with an Eva.

310
00:14:30,036 --> 00:14:32,288
He just got here.
How could he do it?

311
00:14:32,372 --> 00:14:35,208
All I'm asking is that he
simply sit in the cockpit.

312
00:14:35,291 --> 00:14:38,836
-You can't.
-Our number one priority is defeating the Angels.

313
00:14:38,920 --> 00:14:41,923
For that reason,
any pilot even remotely capable

314
00:14:42,006 --> 00:14:44,217
of synchronizing with the Evas
must try,

315
00:14:44,300 --> 00:14:45,760
no matter their experience.

316
00:14:45,843 --> 00:14:49,180
You should understand that,
Captain Katsuragi.

317
00:14:49,222 --> 00:14:51,182
(sighs)

318
00:14:51,265 --> 00:14:52,308
MISATO:
Yes.

319
00:14:54,185 --> 00:14:56,270
Father, why did you send for me?

320
00:14:56,354 --> 00:14:58,856
<i>We just told you why.</i>

321
00:14:58,940 --> 00:15:00,983
So then I'm supposed
to jump inside
