The attacks by the
five Gundams sent out by the Space Colonies reflected their retaliatory
intentions. 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. |

intentions. OZ has masked its identity in the Alliance Military and the
Gundams' missions is to attack them. The year is After Colony 195. OZ has
finally taken center stage. With an army of elite soldiers at his command
Treize Khushrenada has begun to wipe out the Alliance Military. The battle
between OZ and the mobile suits sent to Earth causes serious repercussions
on the Earth. |
The five Gundam's
actions were a direct reflection of the will of all the colonies. The
Gundams were Mobile Suits created to deal with the threat posed to the
colonies by OZ... a secret organization hidden inside the Federation Armed
Forces. After Colony, Year 195. OZ finally emerged as the leading force in
history. OZ's leader Treize Kushrenada carried out massive operations to
devastate and take over the Federation Armed Forces. Having been tricked
into the confrontation, bloody battles between OZ and the colonies' five
Mobile Suits began... Heero-san, I'm counting on you. There's only a 10%
chance of success. But he can make it. Everything that happened... It's
my... It's all my fault! |

A PORTRAIT OF THE
RUINS |
Int. Control Room. European
ex-Federation HQ Airbase. |
Noin: |
Thanks to the
Lightning Count, we are able to keep the town from being demolished. |
Thanks to the
Lightning Count, we saved the beautiful town. |
Thanks to you,
Lightning Baron, this beautiful city did not have to become an ugly
battlefield. |
Zechs: |
The Alliance is
likely regrouping their remaining force following the unexpected attack.
We'll use this base as our headquarters for subsequent fights. |
The Alliance is
probably regrouping their force after the surprise attack. We'll use this
base as our headquarters for future fights. |
All the remaining
Federation forces are trying to reorganize their strategies after our
surprise attacks on their HQs. We will use this headquarters as our base to
keep fighting them. |
Noin: |
The beauty of these
towns doesn't change no matter who rules. |
The beauty of these
towns doesn't change with rulers. |
No matter who rules
the city its beauty shall never be spoilt. |
Zechs: |
Noin... OZ's
objective isn't to rule. It's to free countries from the United Earth Sphere
Alliance's stranglehold. |
Noin... OZ's
objective isn't to rule. It's to free countries from the stranglehold of the
United Earth Sphere Alliance. |
Noin... OZ's
objective is not to 'rule' at this point. It is, rather, to liberate each
country from the Federation's control. |
Noin: |
Currently, you
mean. |
Currently, you
mean. |
At this point,
right? |
Zechs: |
This might be
somewhat unnatural coming from me, but I believe that due respect should be
given to OZ for allowing countries a second chance to correct the mistake of
forming the Alliance in the first place. |
This might be
unnatural coming from me but I believe OZ should be given due respect for
giving a second chance to those countries which formed the Alliance in the
first place. |
It may not be
appropriate for me as an OZ officer, to say this... But they are the
countries that originally created the monster we called the Federation. Now
OZ is creating one last opportunity for them to reconsider their actions.
Thus I believe OZ should be given credit for that. |
Officer: |
The mobile suit
carrier from Victoria Base is about to arrive, sir. |
The mobile suit
carrier from Victoria Base is arriving. |
The Mobile Suit
cargo jet from Victoria Base has arrived. |
Zechs: |
They're here. |
They're here.
|
Has it arrived?
|
Zechs is driven up to the mobile
suit transport plane in a jeep, and steps out to the bottom of the transway
to greet Otto. Otto staggers to the door in the fuselage of the plane and
leans against it and gives a half-hearted salute to Zechs. |
Zechs: |
Otto, I'm so glad
to see you! |
Otto, I'm so glad
to see you! |
Otto! I've been
waiting for you. |
Otto: |
I've returned,
Lieutenant. |
I'm here now,
Lieutenant. |
Reporting for
duty... |
Otto gasps in pain and staggers,
and a fellow officer assists him to stand. |
Officer: |
You need to rest. |
You need to rest.
|
You need to stay in
bed, Sir! |
Zechs: |
Are you alright? |
What's the matter?
|
What happened?
|
Officer: |
Lieutenant Otto
shouldn't even be standing! His ribs are broken, and he has internal
injuries. |
Lieutenant Otto
shouldn't even be standing! His ribs are broken, and he has internal
injuries. |
Lt. Otto was
seriously hurt. His ribs are broken and there are some injuries to his
internal organs! |
Otto: |
[to the officer]
Keep it to yourself. |
Keep it to
yourself. |
Don't tell him such
unnecessary things! |
Otto: |
[to Zechs]
Lieutenant Zechs. This Tallgeese you've been waiting for is one vicious
suit. |
Lieutenant Zechs.
This Tallgeese you've been waiting for is one vicious suit. |
Col. Zechs,
Tallgeese turned out to be quite a wild horse. |
The cargo hold of the carrier
opens, and Zechs and Noin approach the Tallgeese, with Otto and the other
officer following behind them. |
Zechs: |
This is
Tallgeese... |
So this is the
Tallgeese... |
Yes. |
Noin: |
It doesn't look
anything at all like a thing that was scrapped midway twenty years ago. |
Doesn't look like a
thing that was scrapped 20 years ago. |
|
Otto: |
The revolution
speed applied by the verniers allows it to reach more than three times that
of the Aries. We were unable to determine its maximum speed. I passed out
during the trials. |
The revolution
speed applied by the verniers allows it to reach more than three times that
of the Aries. But we were unable to determine its maximum speed. I passed
out during the trials. |
With the back
booster, its acceleration is at least that of Aries. But I was unable to
measure the maximum speed. When I tried, I passed out! |
Noin: |
You were the test
pilot? |
You were the test
pilot?! |
You were the test
pilot? |
Otto: |
The Tallgeese is
not a suit that can be controlled by just anyone, excluding you, sir. |
The Tallgeese can't
be controlled by just anybody. Lieutenant Zechs is an exception.
|
Tallgeese is the
kind of Mobile Suit no one can handle, except perhaps for you, Lt. Zechs.
|
Zechs: |
Aren't you
overrating my skills? |
Aren't you
overrating my skills? |
I hope you aren't
over estimating my abilities... |
Otto: |
No, I trust your
abilities. |
No, I trust in your
abilities. |
No, I believe in
you. |
Otto grunts in pain and leans
against the other officer. |
Zechs: |
[to Otto] All
right. I'll be using this right away. I'm sorry for all the trouble.
|
All right. I'll be
using this right away. I'm sorry for all the trouble. |
Understood. Let me
try it right now. Thank you for everything. |
Zechs: |
[to the officer]
Take him to the medical room. |
Take him to the
medical room. |
Take Lt. Otto to
the medical facilities. |
Officer: |
Sir! |
Sir! |
Yes, sir.
|
Otto is loaded onto a medical
unit and driven away from the mobile suit carrier holding the Tallgeese. As
they watch the vehicle drive off, Zechs discusses his plans with Noin. |
Zechs: |
Noin. Have the
mobile suit troops ready to leave at once. We'll head for the Sanc Kingdom
base of the United Earth Sphere Alliance. |
Noin. Have the
mobile suit troops ready to leave at once. We'll go to the Alliance's Sanc
Kingdom base. |
Noin, order the
Mobile Suit units to prepare for an operation. I will capture the base in
the Cinq Kingdom from the Federation Armed Forces. |
Noin: |
Sanc Kingdom? |
The Sanc Kingdom?
|
The Cinq Kingdom?
|
Zechs: |
We're freeing them
from the Alliance. Any objections to this mission? |
We're freeing them
from the Alliance. Any objections to this mission? |
I will liberate the
country from the Federation. Do you have any objections to this operation?
|
Noin salutes Zechs. |
Noin: |
No, Lieutenant! |
No, sir!
|
Roger! |
Zechs: |
I'm going on the
Tallgeese. |
I'm going on this
Tallgeese. |
I'm going to try
out the Tallgeese. |
Zechs walks back up the gangway
into the carrier to look over the Tallgeese. Noin remains outside the
aircraft. |
Noin: |
Without even a test
ride? Is-Isn't that dangerous? |
Without even a test
ride? Isn't that dangerous? |
Use it in an actual
operation without testing it? That's too dangerous! |
Zechs: |
Don't worry. I'll
be taking it easy. But you know I'm willing to take my chances with this
mobile suit. |
I'll be taking it
easy. I just want to stake my chances on this mobile suit. |
It may be
dangerous, but my future depends on this Mobile Suit. |
Noin: |

Zechs' home town. |

Ext. Day. Basketball court at a
school. Duo leaps in midair and catches a basketball, dribbles down the
court, and passes the ball through opposing team players to Heero. |
Duo: |
Heero! |
Heero! |
Aice, Heero.
|
Opposing Team Player: |
Hey! |
|
|
Heero drives the ball off of the
backboard into the air, and then leaps after it in order to stuff the ball
forcefully into the basket rim. |
Duo: |
Nice shot, Heero! |
Nice shot, Heero!
|
Heero-san!
|
Girl Students: |
Amazing, Duo! Great
job! Way to go, Heero! |
Awesome! Heero!
|
Duo-san!
|
Duo grips Heero's shoulder and
waves at the students in the bleachers. |
Duo: |
Hey! Wave back to
them or somethin'! They're cheering for us, superstar! |
Hey! Wave back or
something! They're cheering for us! |
Why don't you wave
back to them, Heero? Show your appreciation to your loyal fans! |
Heero walks off, and Duo watches
and chuckles to himself. |
Ext. School Grounds: The school
overlooks a body of water with an island base in the distance. Heero is
sitting on a park bench when Duo approaches and leans on the rail and looks
out across water at the base. |
Duo: |
So, this is where
you went. Yanno, that's pretty smart. Changin' schools when you've gotta
move on. After all, it's natural for people our age to be in school. |
So this is where
you went. Hey, that's pretty smart. Changing schools when you've gotta go.
It's natural for people our age to be in school, after all. |
There you are!
Well, to keep transferring ourselves turned out to be a pretty good idea.
Boys our age are supposed to be in school, after all. |
Heero: |
What's the idea? |
What's the idea?
|
What are you
thinking about? |
Duo: |
Heh, I'm just
trying to act normal. |
I'm just trying to
act normal. |
I'm just thinking
as usual. |
Heero: |
You stand out. |
You stand out.
|
You're being too
visible! |
Duo: |
You wouldn't be as
suspicious if you acted natural instead of being so secretive. Why don't you
just chill out a bit and have some fun as a student? |
You wouldn't be as
suspicious if you acted natural instead of being so secretive. Why don't you
just chill out and have fun as a student? |
I think it's much
more natural for me to be myself than to try hard to hide my identity like
you. You should enjoy your childhood too. |
Heero: |
Leave me alone. |
Leave me alone.
|
I'm not like you.
|
Duo: |
And stay outta your
way, right? |
And stay outta my
way, right? |
You're getting in
my way right? |
Heero: |
Hmm? |
|
|
Duo: |
The two of us are
goin' after the same thing, here. You can't hide it from me. I can see it in
your eyes as plain as day, pal. Wadda ya say the first one to destroy that
ship wins? |
The two of us are
going after the same thing, here. You can't hide it from me. I can see it in
your eyes as plain as day, pal. How about the first one to destroy that
fortress wins? |
But we share the
same objective. It's useless to pretend otherwise. I can see that air base
reflected in your eyes. First come, first serve. What do you say?
|
Heero and Duo both look out at
the base, connected to land by a narrow bridge. They hear the sound of a car
door, and Heero turns his head. |
Heero: |
Huh? |
|
|
Relena's pink limousine is
parked at the school. Relena and Pagan are standing next to it, surrounded
by some of the classmates who were at the basketball game. |
Duo: |
Hey, that's... |
Hey, that's...
|
Hey, that's...
|
Heero: |
Relena... |
Relena...
|
Relena...
|
Relena: |
[thinks] I've found
you, Heero. |
I've found you,
Heero. |
I've found you,
Heero. |
Relena walks through the crowd
of students, and over to where Heero and Duo are standing near the railing. |
Relena: |
[out loud] Heero. I
wanted to see you. |
Heero. I wanted to
see you. |
I longed to see you
again. |
Duo: |
Well, she's not
your average chick, wanting to see the guy trying to kill her. |
She's not typical,
wanting to see the guy trying to kill her. |
Longing to see a
man who tried to kill her? What a strange girl... |
Heero: |
Huh. |

Narrator: |
Following the coup
d'etat by OZ, the Earth Sphere Alliance Military enters a state of
confusion. Alliance Military soldiers remain confined in their respective
bases without an understanding of what, in fact, is happening. The Earth
Sphere Alliance was initially formed to handle disputes between the
countries. However, with its expansion in military power, the Alliance soon
took over governments with militaristic control. OZ was now planning to free
the many countries that were forced into the Alliance in this manner.
However, the increase in the Alliance's military power was a direct result
of the mobile suits provided by OZ. As such, there were many countries that
questioned OZ's activities noting that, after the coup d'etat, military
control would continue and that conditions would remain the same. Except
now, the ruler would be OZ. |
Following OZ's coup
d'e'tat the United Earth Sphere Alliance Military enters a state of
confusion. Alliance Military soldiers remain confined in their bases without
an understanding of what in fact is happening. The United Earth Sphere
Alliance was initially formed to handle disputes between the countries. But
with its expansion in military power, the Alliance soon took over

suits provided by OZ. As such, many countries questioned OZ's activities
noting that after the coup d'e'tat, military control would continue and
conditions would remain the same. |
OZ's coup d'etat
made the Federation Armed Forces fall into chaos. Many Federation officers
are still holding onto their base without knowing what has happened. The
World Federation, originally created to resolve confrontations between
nations in the region had expanded too quickly over the years. And its
growing military power even came to influence its member nation's political
policies. To liberate these nations from the oppression of the Federation
that was OZ's 'great case' behind the coup d'etat. But in reality, the
Federations' massive military build-up had been orchestrated by OZ itself.
And as a result, many nations had doubts about OZ's great cause. To many,
the military rule didn't seem to end. The only thing that changed was the
name of the ruler from 'Federation' to 'OZ'. |
Int. Tallgeese cockpit. Zechs
secures his seat harness and waits as the shield doors close. A small video
lights up, and Noin's face appears. |
Noin: |
All mobile suits
have left the carriers. |
All mobile suits
have left the carriers. |
All the Mobile
Suits have been dispatched. |
Zechs: |
Then I'll leave as
well. |
Then I'll leave as
well. |
Alright, I'm
leaving too. |
Noin: |
I'll be backing you
up. Concentrate only on achieving your mission, Lieutenant Zechs. |
I'll be backing you
up. Concentrate only on achieving your mission, Lieutenant Zechs. |
You can count on me
to cover you. So you can concentrate on your mission. |
Zechs: |
I'm totally
focused, Noin. |
I'm totally
focused. |
I'm well
concentrated already. |
Noin: |
We'll lure the
ground troops away, but a few will probably be flying toward you. |
We'll lure away
ground troops, but some might fly toward you. |
I'll take care of
the land battalions. But some may still reach up into the sky. |
Zechs: |
Don't worry. If our
data's right, I should be able to outrun them. |
Don't worry. If our
data 's right, I should be able to outrun them. |
There's nothing to
worry about. This Mobile Suit is supposed to be faster than any other model. |
Noin: |
Good luck! |
Good luck! |
Well, then. |
Noin launches, and Zechs
launches his mobile suit right after her. |
Zechs: |
The mobility of
this heavy suit depends on the vernier output. It's gonna be tough.
|
The mobility of
this heavy suit depends on the vernier output. It's going to be tough... |
Supporting this
incredibly heavy body with these 2 huge engines... What a simple solution... |
The Tallgeese engines fire, and
strong vibrations rock the suit. |
Zechs: |
This is going to
take a lot of effort. But I can't falter now with the Sanc Kingdom right in
front of my eyes! |
This is going to
take a lot of effort. But I can't falter now with the Sanc Kingdom before
me! |
This is not as easy
as I thought it'd be! But the prize is the Cinq Kingdom I have to do
whatever I can! |
Noin: |
Take over the
runway on the east side! |
Take over the
runway on the east side! |
Occupy the runway
on the East end! |
Zechs: |
This speed is
deadly! I could get away by increasing the output. Then why? Why am I
hesitating? |
This speed is
deadly! I could get away by increasing the output. Then why? Why am I
hesitating? |
This acceleration
is murderous! If I increase the power, I'll be able to shake off the enemy.
But why?! Why am I hesitating? |

|
You're the ones

Who are you to say
such a thing after attacking us first! If you don't want to fight, then
retreat! |
Commander: |
[to officer] Stand
by to fire laser cannons! |
Standby to fire
laser beams! |
Prepare for laser
beam bombardment! |
Officer: |
Sir! |
Sir! |
Yes, sir! |
The laser cannons emerge from
the fortifications surrounding the Sanc base, and begin firing on the OZ
mobile suits. Noin watches via the camera on her MS. |
Noin: |
Headquarters didn't
mention those lasers! Uh! Retreat! Damned lasers! |
Headquarters didn't
mention those lasers! Retreat at once! Damned laser beams! |
Laser beam
cannons?! Our data didn't show this! Everyone, withdraw! Damn beam cannons! |
Zechs: |
Noin. Order all
units to withdraw from here at once. |
Noin. Order all

Noin! Contact all

Noin: |
I had no idea they
had this much firepower but we're still in the fight! |
I had no idea they
had this much firepower but we're still in the fight! |
I had no idea that
they had so many weapons at this base. But, we can handle this! |
Zechs: |
No. We should leave
the battle for now and regroup. Everyone withdraw to where we landed the
carriers. |
No. We should leave
for now and regroup. We'll withdraw to where we landed the carriers. |
No. We'll have to
retreat for now and reorganize our tactics. Go back to where you landed the
cargo planes! |
Noin: |
Yes, sir! |
Yes, sir! |
Yes, sir! |
Zechs: |
Why am I acting
like such a coward? I could defeat them with this Tallgeese. I could ignore
the lasers and destroy their headquarters! |
Why am I acting
like such a coward? I could defeat them with this Tallgeese. I could ignore
the lasers and destroy their headquarters! |
Zechs... why are
you acting so cowardly? You know Tallgeese can do it... Without worrying
about the laser beams I can destroy their headquarters with it! |
The Tallgeese moves towards the
Sanc base, in direct opposition to the order to retreat. |
Noin: |
Lieutenant! |
Zechs! |
Zechs! |
Zechs: |
I've mastered
numerous mobile suits in the past, so why? What am I afraid of? |
I've mastered many
mobile suits in the past, so what gives? What am I afraid of?! |
I've piloted many
Mobile Suits! Why is it?! Why am I afraid?! |
The Tallgeese increases power
and rate of descent. |
Zechs: |
[thinks] I'll die
if I keep going. This mobile suit is capable of defeating any enemy it
faces! But it does have one weak point; the pilot is a human being! [groans
and coughs blood] Is this the end? |
I'll die if I keep
going. This mobile suit is capable of defeating any enemy it faces! But it
does have one weak point; the pilot is a human being! Is this the end? |
I'll be killed...
If I keep going! With this monster's performance, this Mobile Suit can
easily beat all the others! But there's one fatal flaw with this machine. It
still needs a pilot... a fragile human pilot! Is this as far as I can get?! |

Lady Une: |
Mr. Treize, what

Mr. Treize, what
would you suggest for our next target? |
Treize-sama, what
should we do about the next phase? |
Treize: |
Let's just continue
fighting and winning. |
Let's just continue
fighting and winning. |
Let's keep
fighting. And see how far we can go. |
Lady Une: |
Shall I interpret
that as meaning we should conquer the Earth Sphere? |
You mean we should
conquer the Earth Sphere? |
All the way to
complete dominance over the United Earth Region? |
Treize: |
That would be
plenty. OZ would then be hated. It'd become the target for the entire world. |
That'd suffice.
Then OZ would then be hated. It'd become a target for the entire world. |
That'd be fine.
That way people will come to hate OZ. And we'll become the enemy of the
world. |
Lady Une: |
What are you
saying? |
Mr. Treize... |
Treize-sama... |
Treize: |
Those that are
hated must remain strong. It'd be the perfect motivation for OZ. [laughs
softly] |
Those that are
hated must remain strong. It'd be the perfect motivation for OZ. |
And that hatred
must become stronger. It will be a good motivation for OZ. |

Hmm… |

something. |
Go on, there's no

OK, the meeting is

Quatre: |
Thanks, Rashid. |
Thanks, Rashid. |
You're a
life-saver, La Sheed. |
Rashid: |
I'm very upset with
you myself; don't forget it. |
I'm upset with you
too; don't forget it. |
I'm pretty upset,
too. Please remember that. |
Rashid turns and pours a
beverage for Quatre and himself, and hands a cup to Quatre. |
Quatre: |
R-Right. |

Rashid: |
So how was it? |

So, how did it go? |
Quatre: |
There were five

Some of them are

Rashid: |
How can you be so
sure of that, Master? |

of that? |
How do you know

Quatre: |

Ext. Circus encampment. Night.
Wufei and Trowa sit in camp chairs on either side of a coffeepot supported
over a small fire by a metal brace. Both are slumped in their chairs and not
talking. Wufei's eyes are closed. Catherine approaches them, carrying two
bowls of soup on a tray and sets it on a small table between the two chairs. |
Catherine: |
Gee, you two! You
call that fun, just sitting like that? You haven't said a word for two
hours. |
Gee, you two! You
call that fun, just sitting there? You haven't said a word for two hours. |
What have you guys
been taking about for so long? It's been 2 hours! |
Trowa: |
What do you want? |
What do you want? |
What do you want? |
Catherine: |
Nice greeting. And
here I thought I'd be doing you a favor bringing this. Eat it right up
before it gets cold. I'll just leave it here so you guys help yourselves.
And clean the dishes after you're finished. Gotta learn your manners while
you're still young, right? Bye! |

thought I'd be doing you a favor bringing this. Eat it up before it gets
cold. I'll leave it here so help yourselves. And clean the dishes after
you're finished. Gotta learn your manners while you're still young. Bye! |
That's mean! You
must be hungry. I brought you something to eat. Eat it before it gets cold.
I mean it. You need to eat something. And, please take care of the dishes.
Boys need to learn to help 'Mummy', you know? See ya'! |
Catherine walks away from Trowa
and Wufei, then turns back and looks at them. |
Catherine: |
[thinks] I guess
quiet people attract quiet friends. |
I guess quiet
people attract quiet friends. |
I guess quiet boys
make friends with other quiet boys... |
Trowa: |
This might not be
the best java. |
Might not be the

I'm not sure if
it's good or not... |
Wufei: |
I've got no right

I've got no right

I don't think I'm

Trowa: |
Oh yeah? |

I see. |
Wufei: |
Thank you. |
Thank you. |

Ext. OZ camp outside Sanc. Otto
stumbles through the dark camp, approaching the medical tent where Zechs is
being treated. |
Otto: |
[grunts in pain] |
|
|
Medical tent interior. Zechs is
lying on a hospital bed, his chest is wrapped, and he is holding an oxygen
mask in his hand. Noin stands at his bedside. |
OZ
Doctor: |
You're recovering
nicely from the heart attack but there are numerous signs of irregularity in
the circulatory system. |
Your pulse has now
stabilized but there are irregularities in the circulatory system. |
Your pulse is still
unstable. The circulatory system has been damaged quite a bit. |
Zechs: |
You mean I should
just be glad to be alive. |
You mean I should
just be glad to be alive. |
Surprise I came
back alive, huh? |
Noin: |
Zechs, what in the
world happened? |
Zechs, what in the
world happened? |
Zechs, what
happened? |
Zechs: |
I really
underestimated the Tallgeese. It completely ignores the commands of the
pilot. It has an audacious design that far exceeds today's most advanced
equipment. |
I really
underestimated the Tallgeese. It completely ignores the pilot's safety. It
has an audacious design that far exceeds today's most advanced equipment. |
I guess I
underestimated Tallgeese. That machine seems to have been designed without
any consideration for human limitations. It's a 'reckless' design, with its
own logic towards warfare. |
Noin: |
It ignores the
pilot? |
It ignores the
pilot? |
Ignoring everything
with regard to human limitations? |
Zechs: |
It takes into
consideration all types of battle patterns and makes it possible for the one
suit to achieve victory on its own. At least that's how I found it. But I've
become such a coward. The more I try to utilize the abilities of the mobile
suit, the more I start doubting my own abilities. I start asking myself, "is
that all you're capable of doing?" Rather than a suit for battle, you could
say it's a suit for dueling. It takes a brave pilot to bring out its true
potential. |

It's possible to
defeat any kind of enemy in any possible combat scenario. That was my
analysis. Even I was scared. As I tried to increase its performance, I wound
up pushing myself to the edge of death. I kept asking myself, Is this really
all you can do, Zechs? That Tallgeese isn't a combat Mobile Suit. It's a
'dueling' Mobile Suit. Unless you're ready to die, you can't handle the
machine effectively. |
Noin: |
A brave pilot? |
A brave pilot? |
Unless you're ready
to die? |
Zechs: |
Brave enough to
risk death for victory. |
Brave enough to
risk death for victory. |
The commitment of
risking your own life for victory. |
Noin: |
Huh? |
|
Overwhelmed by the
fear, huh? |
Zechs: |
[soft chuckle] I
still have a long way to go to if my own fears are putting me in the
hospital. Now, I've gotta get back to the Sanc Kingdom. |
I still have a long
way to go to conquer my own fears. Now, I've got to get back to the Sanc
Kingdom. |
I unexpectedly
revealed myself as a coward. Now, I have to get back to Cinq Kingdom. |
Zechs tries to get out of his
bed, but Noin places her hand on his shoulder, restraining him. |
Noin: |
You rest! Any
normal person would have been dead by now. I'm leaving, but you have got to
stay here and get some rest. |
You've gotta rest!
Any normal person would've been dead by now. I'm leaving, but you have to
stay here and get some rest. |
You can't go back!
Don't forget it was a miracle that you came back alive! I'll go to the Cinq
Kingdom You stay here! |
Zechs: |
But I have to go. |
But I have to go. |
I can't do that. |
Noin: |
Okay, go… but not
on the Tallgeese. |
Okay, but not on
the Tallgeese. |
Then, I'll let you
go only if you promise not to use the Tallgeese. |
Zechs: |
Noin! The Tallgeese
is essential to victory. I'm positive its design is the same as the Gundams. |
Noin! The Tallgeese
is essential to us. I'm positive its design is the same as the Gundams. |
Noin! We need the
Tallgeese. Because Tallgeese is the only model equal to a Gundam. |
Ext. Medical tent. Otto stands
outside the tent opening and listens to Noin and Zechs. |
Noin: |
It is? |
It is? |
Gundam...? |
Zechs: |
As I told you
before, I believe that the Gundams have inherited the reckless design of the
Tallgeese: the origin of all mobile suits. That's why it's crucial for me to
successfully pilot the Tallgeese in order to be able to defeat the Gundams. |
As I told you, I
believe the Gundams inherited the reckless design of the Tallgeese. The
mobile suits' origin. That's why it's crucial for me to pilot the Tallgeese
to defeat the Gundams. |
As I told you
before, Gundam's design was inherited from Tallgeese's arrogantly reckless
design. That's why I have to be able to handle Tallgeese. Because that's the
only way to beat Gundam. |
Otto stumbles away from the
medical tent. |
Otto: |
Tallgeese is for
suicide missions. Now I understand what the Gundams are up to. They've been
searching for a battle suitable for their own deaths. |
Tallgeese is for
suicide missions. Now I understand what the Gundams are up to. They're
searching for a place suitable for their deaths. |
In other words, the
Tallgeese is a suicide Mobile Suit, just like the Gundams... That explains
everything. They're strong because they're always ready to die. |
In the medical tent, Noin covers
Zechs with a blanket. |
Noin: |
I know it's very
difficult for you to lie still with the Sanc Kingdom so close by, but you
must do as I say. |
I know it's very
difficult for you to lie still with the Sanc Kingdom close by, but you must
do as I say. |
I understand what
the Cinq Kingdom means to you But at this moment you have to listen to me! |
Zechs: |
We'll attack
tomorrow evening. |
We'll attack
tomorrow evening. |
We will depart
tomorrow afternoon. |
Noin salutes Zechs. |
Noin: |
Sir! Tomorrow
evening. |
Sir! Tomorrow
evening! |
Yes, sir. Very
well! |
Ext. OZ encampment. Otto slowly
climbs the Tallgeese, opens the hatch, and prior to climbing inside of the
mobile suit, faces the medical tent and salutes Zechs. The Tallgeese takes
off into the night sky. |
Int. Medical tent. A
communication device buzzes and Noin answers it. |
Noin: |
What's the matter?! |
What's the matter?! |
What was that?! |
Officer: |
The Tallgeese has
taken off! |
The Tallgeese has

The Tallgeese was

Zechs: |

|
What?! |
What?! |
Int. Tallgeese. |
Zechs: |
[on monitor] What's
gotten into you, Otto?! Return immediately! |
What're you doing?!
Return immediately! |
What are you
doing?! Come back here at once Otto! |
Otto: |
This Tallgeese
should be able to take over the headquarters of the Sanc Kingdom! I should
know; I understand its strength! |
This Tallgeese
should be able to take over the Sanc Kingdom's headquarters! I should know;
I understand the Tallgeese's strength! |
This Tallgeese is
the only one capable of gaining control of the Cinq Kingdom. I know
Tallgeese's power more than anyone! |
Zechs: |
[on monitor] Stop
now! You'll die! |
Stop it! You'll
die! |
Stop! You'll be
killed! |
Otto: |
I'd be honored to
sacrifice my life for you, Zechs. Please allow me to assist in fulfilling
your dreams, sir! I want to do this for your sake Lieutenant Zechs, and not
for OZ! |
I'd be honored to
sacrifice my life for you, Lieutenant. Please allow me to assist in
fulfilling your dreams! I want to do this for you Lieutenant Zechs, not for
OZ! |
If I can die for
you, I won't regret it! Let me be a part of your dream. I'm not doing this
for OZ, It's for you, Col. Zechs! |
Zechs: |

You're not making

Otto! What are you
saying?! Come back, Otto! |
Int. Room near the school that
Heero and Duo are attending. Relena sits in a chair in front of a window
overlooking the harbor. The Alliance island base in the distance, but
invisible in the night. |
Relena: |
I've come all the
way here just to chase after a guy. Are you surprised, Father? But I
couldn't help myself; I wanted to see him so badly. Can you understand how I
feel, Father? Heero's the support I need to have around until I can get over
my sadness over you. But he keeps running away from me... |
I've come all the
way here just to chase after a guy. Are you surprised, Father? But I
couldn't help myself; I wanted to see him so badly. Can you understand how I
feel, Father? I need to have Heero's support until I overcome my sadness
over you. But he keeps running from me... |
Coming all the way
to a place like this, chasing that boy... Are you surprised, Father? But I
had to see Heero just one more time. I hope you understand my feeling,
Father... Until the day my grief is finally healed, it is Heero who has to
support me. But he always gets away from me... |
An explosion rocks the building,
throwing Relena to the floor. |
Relena: |
Heero? |
Heero?! |
Heero?! |
Ext. Island Base. Gundam
Deathscythe rises out of the night sky and slices a number of Leo MSs. |
Duo: |
All right! Looks
like I got here first! |
All right! Looks
like I got here first! |
Alright! I got here
first. |
Duo looks over his shoulder and
sees Wing Gundam arrive. |
Duo: |
What took you,
Heero? Don't worry, I left you some action! |
What took you,
Heero?! Don't worry, I left you some action! |
You're late, Heero.
But I didn't forget to leave you some. |
Heero uses Wing Gundam's Buster
rifle and machine cannons, and the resulting damage fills the base with
heavy smoke. |
Soldier: |
Dammit! I can't see
a thing! |
I can't see a
thing! |
Shit! Can't see a
damn thing! |
Wing Gundam's foot crushes the
MS as Heero makes an assault on the main tower of the complex. |
Soldier: |
Argggh! |
|
|
Heero fires Wing Gundam's buster
rifle at the tower. |
Heero: |
Mission complete. |
Mission complete. |
Mission completed. |
Ext. Tallgeese. Otto approaches,
warns, and then destroys a number of Aries MS that attempt to block his way
to Sanc. |
Otto: |
Out of my way! I
can't withstand much more! |
Don't get in my
way! I don't know how long I can stand this! |
Don't interfere
with me... I won't last too long, anyway. |
Ext. In an OZ helicopter on the
way to Sanc. Zechs and Noin sit in the cargo area of the craft. |
Zechs: |
Hurry up! |
Hurry up! |
Hurry! |
Officer: |
Yes, sir! |
Yes, sir! |
|
Zechs: |
[thinks] If only
I'd been able to pilot the Tallgeese this would have never happened! |
If only I'd been
able to pilot the Tallgeese this never would have happened! |
If I had been able
to handle Tallgeese, this wouldn't have happened... |
Ext. Day. Sanc base. |
Officer in Sanc: |
The new type of
mobile suit is approaching fast! |
The new type of
mobile suit is approaching fast! |
The unknown Mobile
Suit is approaching again! |
Commander: |
Direct all laser
cannons at that suit! |
Direct all laser
beams at that suit! |
All laser beam
cannons set sights on it and fire! |
Int. Tallgeese. The MS takes
direct fire from the barrage directed at it from Sanc. |
Otto: |
LONG LIVE KING
ZECHS! |
LONG LIVE KING
ZECHS! |
Zechs! BANZAI! |
There is a large explosion,
visible from the helicopter approaching the city from across the water. |
Int. OZ helicopter on the way to
Sanc. The explosion flattens out and fades. |
Zechs: |
Otto... |
Otto... |
Otto... |
Ext. Sanc Base. The Tallgeese MS
lies crashed into the fortifications surrounding the base. Inside the MS,
Otto sits, slumped and unmoving at the controls. |
Ext. Royal Palace of Sanc. Zechs
walks through a grand hall, now in disrepair. He pushes a curtain aside and
enters a room with a portrait of his father. He pauses in front of the
image, removes his mask and places it on a table in front of the painting,
and begins to speak. |
Zechs: |
It took me thirteen
years to return to these grounds. Father, forgive your son. There's been
much bloodshed along the way and I've only been able to live a lifestyle
that counters your teachings, based on the principles of total pacifism. My
hands, they are too stained with blood. I'm completely unfit to lead the
Peacecraft monarchy. |
It took me 13 years
to return to these grounds. Please forgive me, Father. There's been much
bloodshed along the way and I've only been able to live a lifestyle that
counters your pacifist teachings. My hands are too stained with blood. I'm
completely unfit to head the Peacecraft monarchy. |
It took me 13 long
years to return and stand on this land again. Please forgive me, Father. But
I could not become a peace advocate like you. Everything I've done these
past years are the opposite of what you would have done. My hands are
stained with blood. Therefore, I can't ascend to the throne and restore the
House of Peacecraft... |
Zechs picks up a hinged, framed
photograph from the table, on the left is a picture of a younger Relena, on
the right, a younger image of himself holding his baby sister. |
Zechs: |
But I'm sure she
would be able to lead the country in the manner you'd intended. I will fight
to make that happen. I have failed you. |
But I'm sure she
would be able to head the country as you'd intended. I'll fight to make that
happen. I've failed you. |
However, she will
be the one to restore your ideal kingdom, Father... And I will fight for her
sake. |
Zechs bows his head to the
portrait of his father. |
Zechs: |
Please forgive me. |
Please forgive me. |
So, please forgive
this hopeless son of yours. |
Zechs picks up his mask. |
Ext. Island base, day. The base is smoking and obviously damaged. |
Ext. School across the bay from
the base. The students stand by the railing overlooking the bay and look out
over at the smoldering base. |
Students: |
[overlapping
voices] I hear it was attacked!? Think the colonies did it? That's scary! |
It was attacked!?
Think the colonies did it? That's scary! |
So the base was
attacked?! Was that done by the colonies? How scary... |
A familiar pink limousine pulls
up in front of the school, and Relena steps out of the car and calls out. |
Relena: |
Heero! |
Heero! |
Heero! |
Heero and Duo pass by Relena,
and Duo calls out to her casually. |
Duo: |
Hey, good lookin'!
Pretty nice day today, huh. Well, gotta get to class; I'll see ya later… |
Morning, good
looking! Pretty nice day today, huh. Gotta get to class. |
Good morning, Miss.
What beautiful weather we're having, huh? Well, if you'll excuse us we have
a class. |
Relena: |
Let me stay by you
a little longer. I wanna be stronger, just like you. |
Let me stay by you
a little longer. I wanna be stronger, just like you. |
Just for a little
while please let me be near you. Until I become just as strong as you... |
