[00:13] ---
    Today, Chevalier revealed the
    initial result of its E-Pandora Project,
[00:16] ---
    which was previously veiled in secrecy.
[00:20] ---
    Her power is on par
    with a standard Pandora,
[00:23] ---
    she can produce Volt Weapons,
    and even possesses high-end skills.
[00:34] ---
    Are you watching it again, Dr. Aoi?
[00:37] ---
    I only hope my worries are unfounded...
[00:50] ---
    Implanting artificial Stigmata
    into ordinarily incompatible girls
[00:54] ---
    takes a heavy enough toll as it is.
[00:58] ---
    Using these Mark IV nanomachines
    to further enhance them is too reckless.
[01:04] ---
    I take it, as Chevalier's most
    powerful Pandora in active duty,
[01:07] ---
    that you don't think highly
    of the E-Pandora, Yi Soo-na?
[01:12] ---
    It isn't like that.
[01:14] ---
    I chose this way of life to keep
    my children off of the battlefield.
[01:21] ---
    Why am I a Pandora at all
    if our world becomes a place
[01:25] ---
    where we send what
    we're protecting into battle?
[01:29] ---
    I guess that's another way to look at it...
[01:34] ---
    I'll get it.
[01:34] ---
    No, that'll be okay.
[01:38] ---
    It's me.
[01:40] ---
    Howard el Bridget?
[01:46] ---
    What does the head of
    El Bridget family want with me?
[01:54] ---
    AVENGE WORLD!!
[02:10] ---
    To protect someone is
    to know hate for someone

[02:20] ---
    An unknown pulse
[02:21] ---
    Swallow it and it becomes
    mere hope, it falls apart with a sound

[02:27] ---
    The savage pain inside me
[02:35] ---
    is a fighting tragedy
[02:37] ---
    I never wished for this power; the stars
    to wish upon have already fallen

[02:46] ---
    This sad fate screams out loud
[02:49] ---
    Tear me apart, my loved ones
[02:54] ---
    Now, grab hold of your dream
[02:57] ---
    However much you scream about your sad fate
[02:59] ---
    light and prayers will change to betrayal
[03:05] ---
    It's time to be brought to justice
[03:07] ---
    Ah! Where did that smile go?
[03:11] ---
    The answer is nowhere
    to be seen this daybreak

[03:21] ---
    Mark IV re-administration?
[03:24] ---
    The recent, unfortunate
    accident was indeed regretful.
[03:28] ---
    However, unexpected mishaps
    are expected in our line of research.
[03:33] ---
    The E-Pandora girls
    are fully aware of that as well.
[03:37] ---
    But, Sir! The improved
    Mark IV isn't ready yet!
[03:39] ---
    Regarding that...
[03:51] ---
    I further developed it on my own authority.
[03:54] ---
    What is the meaning of this?!
[03:56] ---
    I'm the chief of operations here!
    You didn't ask for my authorization!
[03:58] ---
    I believe you misunderstand
    the position you're in.
[04:05] ---
    The world wants to see a
    third and fourth success case.
[04:09] ---
    Losing a few expendable E-Pandora
    for that purpose is acceptable.
[04:16] ---
    Replacements will be arriving
    within the next few days.
[04:22] ---
    I hear they're going to start testing
    the Mark IV on the E-Pandora again.
[04:27] ---
    So the rumor there was an
    E-Pandora who turned into a Nova
[04:32] ---
    and that they exterminated it...
[04:34] ---
    Yeah, it must've been a lie.
[04:36] ---
    Unfortunately, it's not.
[04:40] ---
    Charles!
[04:41] ---
    It's true that I disposed of an
    E-Pandora that was given the Mark IV.
[04:47] ---
    So there's no reason for
    you guys to worry.
[04:50] ---
    After all, it hasn't bothered me one bit.
[04:55] ---
    She changed into a Nova.
[04:56] ---
    And disposing of Nova is
    what we Pandora do.
[05:00] ---
    In other words,
    I only did what I was meant to.
[05:04] ---
    But restarting dangerous experiments
    that can turn people into Novas...
[05:10] ---
    Doesn't that seem crazy?
[05:12] ---
    Can we really trust
    what they're doing at this lab?
[05:19] ---
    Please don't talk
    like that zombie girl...
[05:22] ---
    There's definitely something
    fishy about the E-Pandora Project.
[05:28] ---
    Our job as Pandora isn't
    to question orders from above.
[05:34] ---
    Our only job is to obey.
[05:52] ---
    Rattle! What is all this?!
[05:56] ---
    A-Amelia...
[05:59] ---
    Did something happen?
[06:17] ---
    Yes?
[06:18] ---
    Amelia Evans is asking to see you...
[06:24] ---
    Let her in.
[06:27] ---
    Rattle told me
[06:29] ---
    she was chosen to be
    the next Mark IV test subject.
[06:33] ---
    Yes.
[06:35] ---
    The Mark IV is a sham.
[06:39] ---
    That was the last thing
    Jina said before she died.
[06:42] ---
    Despite that, do you intend
    to continue experimenting with it?
[06:48] ---
    The Mark IV has been upgraded.
[06:51] ---
    "It boasts far greater stability
    without the worry of side effects."
[06:56] ---
    Is that what you mean to say again?
[06:59] ---
    Yes.
[07:01] ---
    In that case...
[07:02] ---
    ...please make me the test subject instead.
[07:05] ---
    I ask that you conduct the test on
    me to demonstrate the Mark IV's safety,
[07:11] ---
    after which you can administer it to Rattle.
[07:14] ---
    The test will be conducted
    on Rattle, as planned.
[07:18] ---
    You're not even willing
    to consider it, in other words?
[07:23] ---
    I don't have the authority
    to make that decision.
[07:43] ---
    Hypothetically, even if Chevalier
    does only view you as guinea pigs,
[07:48] ---
    it's for the sake of humankind.
[07:52] ---
    I knew...
[07:53] ---
    I knew, and yet...
[08:05] ---
    Hey, Rox.
[08:06] ---
    Huh?
[08:07] ---
    Is it just me, or does
    this lab seem iffy to you?
[08:11] ---
    Yeah...
[08:12] ---
    I do get that feeling...
[08:16] ---
    But it's like that pipsqueak said...
[08:18] ---
    That's being what's called
    a "paranoid psychotic."
[08:22] ---
    She also said this:
[08:24] ---
    "It's our duty as Pandora to
    obey orders without question."
[08:30] ---
    That's asking too much, if you ask me.
[08:33] ---
    Totally. It's like, what's the point
    in dying for some unknown reason?
[08:37] ---
    Still, being ordered to die isn't
    much different from having to fight Novas.
[08:43] ---
    Do you know how many Pandora
    died during the 10th Nova Clash?
[08:49] ---
    What are Novas, anyway?
[08:51] ---
    Huh?
[08:52] ---
    Sorry! That was a dumb thing to ask...
[08:55] ---
    That's not dumb.
[08:56] ---
    It's a fact that humanity knows
    almost nothing about the Novas,
[08:59] ---
    except that they're our enemy.
[09:02] ---
    It's bad enough we still can't
    communicate with 'em, but they act crazy too.
[09:09] ---
    They suddenly show up,
[09:11] ---
    then, after a set amount of time,
    they get dimensionally compressed and...
[09:15] ---
    Kaboom.
[09:19] ---
    Seriously, who knows what they're thinking.
[09:25] ---
    None are gonna show up here, I hope.
[09:31] ---
    If this place gets destroyed,
    say goodbye to hope for the world.
[09:35] ---
    The power reactor inside...
    The "Photon Generator," was it?
[09:39] ---
    Yeah.
[09:40] ---
    I heard twenty years' worth of the
    sun's energy is stored inside.
[09:45] ---
    That doesn't tell me much...
[09:47] ---
    In that case, it's 100 million
    times stronger than a nuclear bomb.
[09:50] ---
    Man, that's hard to grasp too...
[09:52] ---
    --Why am I not surprised?
[09:53] ---
    --Yeah...
[09:54] ---
    Why do they need something that
    crazy dangerous just to power this lab?
[10:01] ---
    Have you heard of the Tower of Babel?
[10:04] ---
    What brought that on?
[10:07] ---
    You mean the tower that humans
    built to get closer to God,
[10:09] ---
    so God got pissed and wrecked it?
[10:13] ---
    What about it?
[10:19] ---
    If it was humanity's wisdom
    that built the Tower of Babel...
[10:25] ---
    ...then the Novas that
    show up to destroy it are...
[10:28] ---
    Hang on! Are you
    saying the Novas are--?!
[10:34] ---
    Are they really our enemy?
[11:01] ---
    You're...
[11:02] ---
    Would you allow me to speak
    in private with Ms. Mably?
[11:08] ---
    Unfortunately, she's in no condition to
    talk with anyone at the moment.
[11:13] ---
    Even if it's just for a minute,
[11:15] ---
    there's something
    I insist on telling her directly.
[11:20] ---
    Please.
[11:37] ---
    I need to step out for a moment.
[11:43] ---
    Thank you...
[11:52] ---
    You are one of the few girls
    I respect from the bottom of my heart.
[12:01] ---
    You are one of the few, dear people
    I respect from the bottom of my heart.
[12:08] ---
    The Mark IV experiments haven't stopped.
[12:11] ---
    Another of my friends is
    about to be used as a guinea pig.
[12:17] ---
    But, I plan to fight for my friends now...
[12:21] ---
    ...just as you did before!
[12:27] ---
    Goodbye, Elizabeth...
[12:43] ---
    We'll rendezvous here in ten minutes.
[12:47] ---
    We're not going as a group?
[12:49] ---
    We're more likely to elude pursuers
    if we take different escape routes.
[12:54] ---
    B-But...
[12:55] ---
    And if any of us can't reach the
    rendezvous point... we leave them behind.
[13:04] ---
    Rattle.
[13:08] ---
    Mm...
[13:09] ---
    A-All right.
[13:26] ---
    Should have returned by now...
[13:30] ---
    Who should have returned by now?
[13:32] ---
    O-Oh!
[13:34] ---
    You are the Godspeed of the East!
[13:36] ---
    I'd sure like you to answer the question...
[13:38] ---
    Huh? Oh, I was referring to Satellizer.
[13:41] ---
    Satellizer is gone?
[13:44] ---
    She was injured, but they could
    not treat her at this laboratory, so...
[13:49] ---
    Was she badly hurt?
[13:51] ---
    Apparently, she and Elizabeth fought.
[13:57] ---
    She fought Elizabeth Mably?
[13:59] ---
    Terrible things have
    happened to her family, huh?
[14:03] ---
    Not only her family.
[14:05] ---
    Huh?
[14:08] ---
    Has something happened
    to Elizabeth too?!
[14:10] ---
    U-Uhh...
[14:11] ---
    I haven't seen her at all recently!
[14:16] ---
    Qu-Quit it, Julia Munberk!
[14:19] ---
    You are the Mammary of Honduras!
[14:23] ---
    Maverick of Walpurgis. I'm German.
[14:26] ---
    Never mind that!
    What's happened to Elizabeth?!
[14:33] ---
    This is terrible...
[14:35] ---
    Your shock is understandable.
[14:37] ---
    But it's all true.
[14:40] ---
    They not only made Eli
    suffer like this, but her family too!
[14:45] ---
    This is Chevalier's way of doing things!
[14:52] ---
    Where are you going?
[14:54] ---
    I don't care about this. So I'm leaving.
[14:56] ---
    You don't care?!
[14:59] ---
    You don't feel anything as
    a fellow Pandora?!
[15:03] ---
    What am I supposed to feel?
[15:09] ---
    I'd certainly feel something
    if you spent time with me, however.
[15:23] ---
    Dr. Aoi!
[15:32] ---
    Look at this!
[15:33] ---
    It's a genome map of the holy
    remains--of Maria Lancelot!
[15:37] ---
    I've decoded it! Now her power is ours!
[15:43] ---
    Doctor?
[15:46] ---
    "And the Lord came down
    to see the city and the tower,
[15:49] ---
    which the children of men builded.
[15:53] ---
    And the Lord said, Behold, the people
    is one, and they have all one language;
[15:56] ---
    and now nothing will
    be restrained from them."
[16:01] ---
    "Therefore is the name of it called Babel."
[16:07] ---
    Are you saying what I'm doing is
    akin to building the Tower of Babel?
[16:11] ---
    In response to the Tower of Babel,
    God dispensed divine punishment.
[16:15] ---
    By giving many languages to a
    world that only had one, chaos was born.
[16:22] ---
    What are you trying to say?!
[16:25] ---
    Doesn't that ring any bells for you?
[16:29] ---
    Wait, are you suggesting that's
    how humans and Novas relate?!
[16:35] ---
    Are you seriously saying the
    Novas are a sort of divine punishment?
[16:46] ---
    Does that make Maria God?!
[16:48] ---
    Don't be stupid!
[16:50] ---
    Need I remind you that the number of
    Stigmata-compatible subjects has stagnated?!
[16:55] ---
    As it's impossible to
    mass-produce Pandora,
[16:57] ---
    decoding Maria's genes
    and duplicating them is--!
[17:00] ---
    Ms. Ohara.
[17:02] ---
    That would be blasphemy.
[17:05] ---
    Blasphemy?
[17:07] ---
    What do you take Maria for?!
[17:11] ---
    You gave that name to those holy remains...
[17:13] ---
    The name of the woman
    who gave birth to God...
[17:16] ---
    The name of the goddess said to
    have brought salvation to humankind!
[17:21] ---
    Just what is she to you?!
[17:24] ---
    Are you actually--?!
[17:25] ---
    Get out.
[17:28] ---
    Huh?
[17:29] ---
    Be gone from my
    laboratory, Ms. Scarlet Ohara.
[17:40] ---
    To this day, I don't
    feel I was in the wrong.
[17:45] ---
    Gengo Aoi. You revered Maria.
[17:49] ---
    No, even more than that...
[18:08] ---
    Maria's power must be placed
    under humanity's control.
[18:14] ---
    It must.
[18:17] ---
    Wait for me, Jina.
[18:19] ---
    Volt Weapon: deploy!
[18:35] ---
    I never expected they would
    take such drastic measures...
[18:41] ---
    But this is actually perfect.
[18:45] ---
    Suspected E-Pandora
    intruders in the research lab.
[18:49] ---
    Chevalier MPs and Pandora
    are to subdue them at once.
[18:52] ---
    I repeat, suspected
    E-Pandora intruders--
[19:01] ---
    Rattle! Why are you--?
[19:03] ---
    I-It was obvious you were trying
    to help us escape w-without you!
[19:10] ---
    Y-You're the one who said we're
    irreplaceable friends who met here!
[19:18] ---
    So leaving a friend
    behind so I can survive...
[19:21] ---
    I-I'm absolutely against it!
[19:27] ---
    I'm coming with you!
[19:29] ---
    We're all going...
[19:31] ---
    ...to join Jina!
[19:39] ---
    Stop right there!
[19:44] ---
    Move, Amelia.
[19:51] ---
    Volt Weapon: deploy.
[19:59] ---
    I always dreamed of being
    able to produce Volt Weapons!
[20:04] ---
    Now that I've resigned myself
    to death, I've finally become...
[20:08] ---
    ...a real Pandora!
[20:14] ---
    All right, Rattle!
[20:16] ---
    I'm going to die anyway.
[20:19] ---
    To prevent any more tragedies like Jina's...
[20:22] ---
    To put an end to
    the E-Pandora Project...
[20:25] ---
    Let's let the world know of the atrocities
    that took place here, and then die!
[20:30] ---
    Amelia! Dr. Ohara should
    have the experiment logs!
[20:35] ---
    I'll handle things here! Go, Amelia!
[20:39] ---
    Thanks!
[20:44] ---
    We won't let you past here!
[20:46] ---
    Even if it kills us!
[20:55] ---
    One of the world's five strongest...
[20:58] ---
    Commencing target elimination.
[21:20] ---
    I couldn't even see the attack...
[21:29] ---
    Jina... Help me!
[21:43] ---
    Are you siding with the traitors?
[21:46] ---
    No.
[21:47] ---
    Then why?
[21:50] ---
    I felt it.
[21:51] ---
    I felt what you're fighting for.
[21:55] ---
    To protect...
[21:57] ---
    ...what I hold dear!
[22:08] ---
    Seek out and open your heart
[22:11] ---
    True pain will usher in tomorrow
[22:14] ---
    The world will embrace our wounds
[22:29] ---
    Don't be hurt all by yourself
[22:35] ---
    Those are the words I always wanted to hear
[22:40] ---
    Show off the futures that are sealed away
[22:45] ---
    Show off their sparkle
[22:51] ---
    Wishful heartbeats will wash
    away the sadness

[22:56] ---
    What I want to share is the
    certain warmth of dreams

[23:01] ---
    Seek out and open your heart
[23:04] ---
    True pain will usher in tomorrow
[23:06] ---
    While the world embraces our wounds
[23:12] ---
    I will search for meaning, and
    even if I find nothing at all

[23:18] ---
    I'll never give up! I'll go!
[23:23] ---
    Ignite your life...
[23:24] ---
    Now is everything!
[23:40] ---
    --I told you before. I
    am a member of Chevalier.
[23:41] ---
    --You have become a girl worthy of contempt.
[23:44] ---
    Next time: "Traitor."
